People with Sibo seems to not get rid of acid reflux until they clear Sibo. Clearing Sibo is not a simple as people think it is.
DGL made me worse
@@jamieb5679 Me too. Caused heart pains. I'm so bad right now I cannot eat much of anything without reaction. Down 51 pounds in 3 months. Just came from ER and all they did was give me a prescription for a ppi , which i can't take because it causes severe depression. At my wits end. I know I have sibo but docs at ER wouldn't give me an antibiotic. I'm going to try nebulizing with hydrogen peroxide because I have nothing to lose.
Not only are you brilliant, your teachings are clear and concise. I feel so fortunate to have found your channel. Thank you!🙏🏻
Thanks so much for your kind support! 🙏 I really appreciate hearing from you! Best wishes, RN
Congratulations on hitting 100k! 🥳🍾🥂
Thank you so much 😀
this has to be one of the most informative video on the subject have ever heard the wealth of info in this video outstanding to me.thank you dr rajsree sharing this and congratulations 🍾🎈
Wonderful to hear from you Tess, as always! I'm so glad you found this video helpful! Thank you! Have a wonderful weekend, ~Rajsree
What a gem you are. I listen to many fun tional medicine podcast and have for many years. I wish i was able to afford the cost of the visits. I have suffered for 3 years with ulcers, gerd, and now an esophageal stricture. I am unable to eat and the gasternologist says all he can do is prescribe ppi. I dont even take it trying to heal myself via utube videos. Such a sad ,sad healthcare system we have that will only write scripts and keep you sick rather than help me find the root cause and heal. I live in Atlanta and am curious if your office accepts health insurance or are you private pay? Please keep posting these videos so that we may continue to be informed about our health.
Thanks so much for watching! 😊
it's pleasant to wait for another informative video from you. thank you very much

Thanks Dr Rajsree!
Greetings from Thailand 🇹🇭
Thanks so much for watching! 😊 Wonderful to hear from you in Thailand!
Excellent. Now to coordinate the redundant colon condition I have and working step by step through many of the issues you so kindly shared. Being into Permaculture and gardening organically helps but it is tricky to weed out foods that may not heal. I really appreciate learning about histamine but will need to cook more often rather than use leftovers! Thanks again, Lorna
Thanks so much for watching! 😊
Great video!

Thanks for all you do 🙏🏽

@@drrajsree Kindly gibe me what to takebif you have acid reflux
I am suffering from GERD from hiatus hernia.
I have all the extra gastric complications, thinking of fixing operatively.
If your video helps , I shall be grateful to you ❤
Hope you see great results with this protocol! Best wishes, RN
Hello Doc. Is passing gas as flatulence root cause also same as Gerd, because I have constant gas and tend to go as flatulence, did my abdominal scan and lot of blood tests and all were normal. Could it be slow motility as all the gastro I met advised me to do aerobic exercise to keep the motility faster. Would appreciate a reply. Thanks
Thanks so much for watching! 😊 SIBO is a root cause of excessive gas. It's often caused by slow motility. You might also like my video on my Herbal Protocol for SIBO, which you can find here:

Thanks fort the video. I have mild chronic gastritis after H-pylori infection which was eradicated 2 years back. Are there any natural products that can heal the stomach lining? I have been taking arrowroot powder (around 1.5tsp) from more than a month in the form of a drink. Does that help?
Thinks that help with stomach healing include Aloe Juice, DGL, L-Glutamine, IgG Guard. You might like my video on H. pylori as well. The ingredients in Pylori Plus like mastic gum, bismuth and zinc carnosine are also great for stomach healing.
I wish I had found you a year ago as I was weaning off PPI’s, however, through extensive research of my own, I have come to almost an identical conclusion as your presentation here in.
Thank you for confirming this path.
Ps, as part of my daily routine, I had tried probiotics but they caused great discomfort with excess gas, belching, pressure in upper digestive tract. As of 2 weeks ago, I stopped only the probiotics and am feeling much better. I believe the probiotics were exacerbating SIBO type effects of bloating, excess gas build up in stomach and esophagus etc.
Dairy is my trigger and have to read ingredient lists of any prepared foods. Quitting smoking 1.5 years ago drastically reduced GERD along with chewing a DGL tablet 20 minutes before each meal then digestive enzymes and nutritional yeast with the meal. Standing and walking after a meal helps immensely too.
Thank you for such informative presentations and the path to healing.
Thanks so much for watching! 😊
Can I open IgG gaurd. Since I can’t do capsules nor softgels? Only tablets, powder or liquid
Yes that’s fine to do. Thanks for watching! 😊
I’m taking pepcid for my GERD. What do you recommend? Something I have to take bicarbonate sodium with lemon dilute in water
Sorry to hear this. I would follow the steps in this protocol. You could also try DGL Chewables as a more natural alternative to Pepcid and Bicarbonate.

I have a question regarding MCAS/histamine intolerant patients with GERD who undergo your SIBO treatment protocol. Since high histamine levels cause an overproduction of stomach acid, wouldn’t betaine HCL supplementation cause worsening of reflux symptoms? Should these patients omit your Betaine with Pepsin and Digestive Enzyme Pro supplements while undergoing SIBO treatment? MCAS patients often take H2 blockers to reduce stomach acid, so increasing stomach acid seems counterintuitive. Thanks!
Great question. Actually Digestive Enzymes are universally well tolerated. Betaine and Pepsin can be tried and if there is any burning, that means you don't need it.
Thank you !
My reflux got worse with probiotics 5-10 billion CFU of lactobacillis and bifido. Why would that be ? Which probiotic is the best for MCAS then ? What do you think about Akkermansia postbiotic ?
Thank you !
S. boulardii helps with Histamine Intolerance. Please watch my video on Histamine Intolerance which touches on MCAS as well.
@@drrajsree thank you.
I’ve started taking it, it’s been 4 days and today I had a extremely burning stomach , esophagus and throat after taking it. Why ? Do you have any suggestions please ? Thank you
Excellent info,at perfect timing, struggling with GERD and doing a water fast and I would say I am guilty of overeating and hence...Makes sense???? ❤
Thanks so much for watching! 😊 Yes unfortunately overeating is a big cause of GERD. The Digestive Enzyme Pro can really help in these cases! Best wishes, RN
@@drrajsree keep up the good work 🙏
Hello Doctor great presentation. I've been going through trapped Air Pockets since February. I suffer no pain nor fevers. Just trapped Air everyday. And, yes, often, diarrhea. I'm down to 119 pounds. I'm hungry!! That's not my issue. I just can't eat bloated. Too uncomfortable. My bowels move everyday thank God.
I'm so sorry to hear this. You might also like my video on my Herbal Protocol for SIBO, a root cause of bloating and diarrhea, which you can find here:
th-cam.com/video/zHATkKdznIA/w-d-xo.html&t=3s
I have the same sensation of trapped gas from stomach to upper esophageal sphincter and bloating making it very hard to eat. Walking around to activate Burping really helps.
Could you make a video on "care after gall bladder surgery"lots of problems happening like bile reflux in stomach, Contispation, Gerd and other problems of it
Thanks for the suggestion. Generally Digestive Enzyme Pro helps a lot after the gallbladder is removed as it has ox bile. I also have a video on Constipation you might like. Thanks so much for watching! 😊
@@drrajsree Dr I am without gall bladder and have bile reflux how could I manage .thanks
I suffer from gerd and sibo. Would essential magnesium make sibo worse. Like more bloating?
Essential Magnesium is amazing for SIBO! It's part of Phase 1 of my SIBO Herbal Protocol. You might also like my video on my Herbal Protocol for SIBO, which you can find here:

Hi love your videos, so educational. Does lactulose damage the gut microbiome? Thanks
Thanks so much for watching! 😊 If you're lactose intolerant it causes gas. This is not damaging but uncomfortable. However many people are sensitive to the dairy proteins casein and whey which causes inflammation in their gut.
@@drrajsree The question I asked was does (lactulose) kristalose, cholac damage the gut microbiome? Not lactose
Thanks so much 🙏
Dr thank you for all your help, I have Gastroparesis,IBSC,and I came out positive with sibo 2 months ago ,what do you recommend? Thank you Dr . I’m subscribed with you

Many functional health practitioners claim that GERD is mostly due to insufficient stomach acid; that the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) fails to close when the ph level is too high. They claim that acidifying the stomach with betaine hydrochloride will alert the LES to close properly, thus cutting off the flow of acid into the esophagus. I have been unable to locate any medical literature that confirms this. What are your thoughts regarding the connection between stomach acidity level and LES function?
Great question. In general undigested foods can often trigger LES to open up. As I mentioned in the video non-acid reflux is quite common, mimicing acid reflux. By supplementing with Digestive Enzymes and Betaine and Pepsin, the food gets broken down better and doesn't come back up the esophagus.
Hello doc, are your products available to be delivered in UK?
We ship our supplements throughout the United States. Unfortunately, we do not ship to other countries yet.

As u already mentioned not to include yellow fruits,is it same for fruits like chiku and casein which are sweet and can be avoided.
Any fruit that is sweeter should be avoided if you have blood sugar problems or fatty liver disease.
I have small hiatus hernia and reflux so i need to take ppi twice a day. If i consume L-glutamin and Digestive enzyme and probiotics supplement. Would this going to help ?
Yes those supplements can still help you. Best wishes, RN
I love this channel❤❤
Thanks so much for your kind support! 🙏 I really appreciate hearing from you! Best wishes, RN
I have heard that DGL can cause palpitations, what are your thoughts on this?
I have not seen this before. Thanks so much for watching! 😊
How to differentiate whether it is acidic or non acid reflux?. Thanks
Non-acid reflux improves with Digestive Enzyme Pro and Betaine and Pepsin
What type of products do you recommend barrett esophagus and diet
It's always helpful to know your food allergies by doing and IgE food panel as mentioned in this video.
Hi dr Rajsree I’ve watched couple of your video and they are very informative and as usual learning something new thank you for the great content, I suffer from pyloric valve insufficiency and gastritis, so undigested protein and food in general, is there anything I can take for this condition. TIA
Digestive Enzyme Pro may help you digest your food better.

I took ppis for almost 3 years, how to get rid of the side effects and is there any way of reversing my health?
If you're off the PPI now, that's good news! You might want to have your doctor check your essential vitamins like Vitamin D, Zinc, Iron, etc.
Thank you Dr Rajsree,
As usual, Very informative and clearly presented. Are your supplements available in Canada?

Thank you so much for your support! 😀
After not tolerating other probiotics I purchased your Spore Probiotic IgG and my body is responding to it so well! Thank you!!!
I’ve been diagnosed with SIBO and leaky gut. I’m in phase 3 of healing. Once I start a supplement I get insomnia if I stop taking it. Have you seen this before in your practice? It’s very strange
I'm so happy to hear the Spore Probiotic IgG has been helping you! That's interesting -- I haven't really seen this before. Magnesium of course helps sleep, so if you stop that one your sleep might not be as good. Best wishes in completing the SIBO protocol! RN
I suffer w IBS, GERD, mold in body and SIBO. I am working w a functional doctor. Plus I have motility and constipation all the time. I think I might have celiac. I haven’t had any allergies show up. I am gluten free and dairy free. Gluten makes me very sick and dairy I am lactose intolerant.
Thanks so much for watching! 😊 Yes gluten and dairy are the 2 most common food sensitivities.
There is no way these are unrelated. Your IBS and GERD are a result from SIBO. Mycotoxin intoxication is extremely overdiagnosed in the naturopath world. It’s probably just SIBO.
Your brilliant. Thank you
Thanks so much for watching! 😊
Hello Doctor,
Thanks for this amazing video
I have histamine intolerance along with hydrogen dominant sibo.
I have crazy acid reflux and vomits due to trigger.i am taking ppi for very long to control the symptoms but they are backfiring now.
I wanted to understand if I follow the SIBO protocol can I take ppi along with it too?
How do I deal with this situation
As I cannot sleep till I have one dose of ppi.
If I am following my SIBO protocol how do I deal with histamine intolerance?
This is tough because PPIs can set you up for SIBO relapse. Ideally you want to work with a doctor to see if the PPI could be weaned off if possible before treating the SIBO so that you have a successful treatment without relapse. Treating the SIBO will help the histamine intolerance.
@@drrajsreeactually what I feel is I have histamine intolerance due to which I have to take ppi.
I have histamine intolerance due to SIBO.
If I have to wean off PPI I really need to work on histamine intolerance and sibo as without working on them
Maybe Removing ppi isn’t possible.
Also the diet on SIBO isn’t well tolerated basically if I eat anything fibrous,fermented,millet the acid becomes really very high.
Also even if the acid is in control the gases trouble and make nauseous and gives irritation and headache.
Once I have a ppi things get in control.
I don’t understand how do I overcome this😞😞
Every time I try follow a wean off protocol this happens.
Is there something that can work with here? Or any plan that I can follow.
Madam... Colon or large intestine ulcers..can be detectes in . Ct scan and MRI?
Thank you so much! 😊
@@drrajsreeu welcome
Thanks a lot.
Thanks so much for watching! 😊
My husband has stomach ulcer. Do you have any suggestions or supplements to help with that
Sometimes stomach ulcer has to be treated with prescription medications (acid blocking PPIs temporarily), so please discuss with your doctor.
@@drrajsree he has been on PPIs for almost two years off and on and he has not seen any improvement.

What about burping ? I don’t really feel acid reflux or heartburn but severe burping after eating nd drinking
Burping is often a symptom of LOW stomach acid. Betaine and Pepsin after meals often helps with this. Best wishes, RN

Your comment about intestinal metaplasia being a pre-cancerous situation(if I got it rightly)is pretty scary. I had H-pylori infection for little more than 2 years which got eradicated after 2 rounds of antibiotics and still have mild gastritis and acid reflux even after that. I have been trying hard to heal myself by controlling the diet and with different types of treatment after that - Homeopathy, Ayurveda etc which has not given me a cure yet. I am just able to manage the symptoms to a good extent. I am always sacred of the risk of cancer. Not sure how much at rish I am right now.
Thanks so much for watching! 😊 Eating a diet rich in antioxidants can help reduce cancer risks. You might like my video on Cancer to learn more:

Can i take ppi during consuming these suppliment?
Yes you can. Of course work with your doctor to see how long your PPI is needed to see if you can eventually wean off.
Is that true that L-Glutamine is a stimulant therefore people suffering with anxiety should be careful with this supplement?
Great question. Glutamate is a stimulate (found in Monosodium Glutamate, or MSG), but I have not found Glutamine the amino acid to act as a stimulant or cause anxiety in my patients. Another great option is IgG Guard (Immunoglobulins) for gut healing.
@@drrajsree Thank you!

@@drrajsree when will you start taking new patients?
Ridiculous how my first "doctor" just tested for H Pylori (negative) and threw PPIs at me. Why can't more medical professionals be more holistic in their thinking? Sigh. I went to two other doctors who also just threw PPIs at me like candy. I'm grateful for people who dare think outside of the box T-T Wish I would have discovered this channel earlier
Thanks so much for watching! 😊
I've been dealing with heartburn to some degree or another for years. I've always seen naturopathic type doctors, so never took meds or Tums, etc. I just keep my diet as clean as possible and have done food allergy tests and avoiding the wheat/dairy/soy. And other things you mention to manage. But it's still very problematic. I will do your multi-step protocol. However, I have a question: I have been using baking soda and water for years whenever it gets worse. But I take way more than a quarter teaspoon. More like a teaspoon, sometimes a bit more. Is this dangerous? Thanks!!!
No baking soda should be safe. Hope you see great results with the protocol!
I tried to use Apple Cider Vinegar 1 table spoon per glass of water 2 times a day during 3 month. Actually it worked for my family. I still use ACV. Just like it.
Interesting! This means you likely had non acid reflux meaning you needed more acid. Betaine and Pepsin would work similarly to ACV. Best wishes, RN

I see DGL capsules but not the chewables.
Yes, we switched to DGL capsules since they have no added artificial sugars and has other helpful soothing ingredients like like aloe vera gel and slippery elm.
I've been using a pill splitter to take half a Prilosec each morning. It's been just as effective for me as a whole pill.
I want to ween off completely.
BTW - I think good posture is important to keep from putting pressure on the stomach.
Absolutely! Posture is very important for so many reasons. Thanks so much for watching! 😊
