I commonly see Methane SIBO, also known as constipation SIBO, in my patient population when using the SIBO breath testing. This condition often presents with bloating and distention, burping and excessive flatulence and the most common or predictable symptom of constipation and slow gut transit time (time that food takes to travel from the mouth to the toilet bowel).
Today I wanted to share a case study from a patient of mine who had been trying to clear methane SIBO for some time. They had used common frontline therapies but after each breath test found that the methane gases were still quite high.
We implemented some common treatments that most of my methane SIBO patients get and we layered in some advanced treatments to try to help shift the environment in the gut and reduce the excessive methane gas.

This is a special rare video ladies and gents, we appreciate this Todd!
Thanks Mac 😊 if it’s helpful I can keep putting them out. It’s rarely that easy but sometimes the fundamentals work first go round!
@@ByronHerbalistHi I got some Allicin,Bacillus Coagulan,and rhubarb powder plus high grade Manuka honey I’m slowly introducing these at a slow pace I need to get a handle on this because I can’t afford to lose anymore weight thanks for any advice
Would love to see more case studies, this is so so helpful!
Great feedback! I wasn’t sure it would be helpful 😊
@@ByronHerbalist Todd, I have to add, it would be very invaluable if you could do complex cases like Methane + Hydrogen Sulf because those are some of the hardest things to treat and perhaps even share diet approaches that those patients undertook to see better success!
I learned a lot from the details, and appreciate a slow & steady approach that actually heals the patient, so they can get back to just living their life.
Thanks for the feedback 🙏
yes please want more esp methane/constipation issues!!!
love the feedback! On it :-)
A very good explanation to adress an accurate treatment.
More methane SIBO case studies would be brilliant. As was this one.
Thank you.
So helpful! I found it interesting that you use high dose antimicrobials as a last step, when my naturopath prescribed those right away. I forget my exact breath test results, but they were quite elevated at baseline for methane SIBO. I’m done with that treatment and still have slow transit time. I plan to try your suggestions. You have given me invaluable information, thank you!
Pleasure! Glad it was helpful
How does liver function fair with these herbal therapies?
It’s good to see concrete examples of this, and it has given me some ideas for tests to request.
SIBO breath testing is a must with bloating, gas and a change in bowel movements
When clean out my gut I feel so much relief
That is a good sign. Keep those BM moving and transit time up here
Great information. I have that ploblem to. Love to see more case studies to figer out what's going on. Thanks.
Wonderful video! I'd love to see more case studies! Bless you.
When will you have your treatment/formula available to the US? I have high methane with histamine intolerance because of SIBO. Really great video and info! Thank you!
Working on it. It’s a tough problem to solve but we’re on it!
Me too! My symptoms are severe asthma when eating gluten tomato msg soy caffeine chocolate
I'd love to hear some more on methane SIBO, so interesting! I have it myself
More to come! Thanks for the comment 🙌
Thank you for the case study! Yes more case studies would be very welcome!
I've been having a tough time getting treated, decided to be my own doctor and start testing. Found methane archaea not in the normal range, found Enterobacteriaceae and Psuedomonas overgrowth and, found gram negative bacteria like Salmonella(typhi) Enterica though unsure of active infection, all this from one stool test.
My gut test showed abnormal inflammation and high risk for dysbiosis, worse still not enough good bacteria to counter this.
So now I'm starting to self treat with Allicin and Atrantil, I definitely wouldn't mind advice but I'm overwhelmed by how expensive and ineffective the traditional medicine of this has been alone.
I have been suffering with severe Sibo many many years. I have tried so many solutions, holistically none worked. I finally did research and have switched my whole diet from low FODMAP to carnivore. Within two weeks I noticed a significant difference after a month I am feeling 100% better.
I've just done the same thing, and feel the same way.
Hey Todd, love the case study approach as a part of your video presentations.
Thanks Helen!
Thank you so much Todd. This is really helpful. I would love to hear about more case studies with Methane SIBO or Lyme Disease. It's true that every case is different but it's very interesting to see the different combinations of things that help people. It's helpful to see the common denominators in the treatment and also the unique additions to each one. I love these. Thank you for sharing.
I'd love to hear more!! Fascinating and helpful!
Thank you so much for sharing. It's great to see alternative treatment options. In regards to the turkey rhubarb is it possible to take in powder form as the tinctures contain alcohol. If so could you please give the dosages. Please continue sharing as it is very useful info.
This was a really good video, thank you for sharing. I'm looking to potentially become a gut health coach and so I appreciate any new and interesting information I can find on gut related issues.
So glad it was helpful!
Struggling with super high methane levels. Naturopath has me on Allicin and Neem, but the strong herbs have caused me to have urgent diarrhea 1.5 weeks into treatment. This is frustrating because the first week felt amazing. SIBO was first treated with antibiotics and relapsed after a month. Using triphala as a motility activator but it causes some uncomfortable bubbling. Unsure what to do next
Are you noticing anything with the Triphala? I've been on it for months, my 6th bottle I think. I don't think it's doing much.. still slow transit time. And that's taking HCl, TUDCA and cascara sagrada too.
I love everything about this! Very hopeful.
Thanks for the great feedback
fascinating, thanks for an excellent case study
this was a great video, great information excited to see more videos like this
thanks divine! Appreciate the feedback 🙂
Thanks very very much for such valuable informations GOD BLESS YOU 🙏🙏🙏💐
Great content! Thank you for sharing! Would love to see more videos like this
Appreciate your videos but wish I could get an herbalist like you in the US
Hi Byron
I’m in UK had an extremely stressful last 2.5 years and started developing some really nasty symptoms that you would think was LPR acid reflux
The symptoms exponentially got worse after taking high doses of HCL and Pepsin for 8 weeks and I was sent to a gastroenterologist they carried out all the tests and came to conclusion I had severe GERD and after a SIBO test they said I had extreme methane SIBO (started at 30 and peaked at 87)
The gastro thought the hiatus hernia was causing all the problems and programmed me in for Linx surgery on 20th July 2023 next Thursday
In mean time in April the things that were stressing me were concluded and unbelievably I gradually started to feel better still have a lot of symptoms (blocked ears, reactions when eating tremors and some palpitations but nothing like before
Had a last consultation and doctor noticed I looked and acted a lot better and asked what had happened and postponed the operation stating that it looks like it may have been the severe SIBO and decided to treat the SIBO to see if that might save having a operation
He has prescribed Rifaximin and neomycin would you think this is correct or is there another way
How did you get on?
How r u feeling
This is so educational, thank you! Please keep them coming.
Thanks 🙏 appreciate the feedback!
I think I have it. I’m going through the steps.
Resolor has significantly improved my motility - it's like a game-changer for me! The difference is remarkable
yes! This is a great help for some. So glad it's helping!
Thank you for your video! I would also like to see more case studies if possible. I think it's very important and an amazing way to learn. I have SIBO/IMO for 8 years, I'm desperate to get better and I've been trying everything, but nothing seams to work. Also I have endometriosis and severe pain every month, especially wen my intestines move are having a hard time, so if you have any cases of women with this kind of mixed pathologies that with be excellent! Thanks for sharing your knowledge! 🙏
Thanks for the feedback! I have one specific case study that relates. Let me see if she is happy for me to share her tests and treatment plan. She’s making good progress so it should be valuable!
@@ByronHerbalist thank you so much!❤️
@@ByronHerbalist we’d love to see more of these.
Hi Byron
I have had a terrible time for last year with Acid reflux in the throat and ears eventually moving to chest middle of night and daytime attacks trouble breathing etc
Went on omeprazol a PPI and this caused bloating gas and generally felt terrible
went to GI and he had tests carried out including SIBO test turned out to be very high methane results no Hydrogen
Results started with base breath of 50 then after taking the sample growing to top of 90 plus around 90 minutes GI doctor has not contacted me but I’m quite constipated do small movements but can’t clear bowel and have intolerance to a few foods and alcohol and soft drinks it’s been a KNIGHMARE
Are these crazy high resting at 50 and can it be cured or managed
Currently taking
Ginger and Artichoke x2
Nutri Advance Candex SIBO x2 each meal
Digestive enzymes x1 each meal
Is there anything I could add like Turkey Rhubarb
@@sidmartin4677 try a highly absorbable magnesium to bowel tolerance. Works for my reflux
I wish I could consult with you online! So, wholesome!
Thanks! Appreciate the feedback
Hi Todd, my recent Genova SIBO breath test is high methane at 24. The levels are 21, 15, 11, 9, 9, 15, 22, 24 in the time columns. Hydrogen time columns are under 10 apart from last 2 columns 26 & 35. Looks like I have SIBO and LIBO.
My main symptom is constant weight loss, went gradually down to 123lbs/56kgs from 167lbs/74kgs in June 2019 despite eating well. Scans/tests have been okay. Very underweight at 5'9" struggling to walk. Was positive for methane SIBO in Jan 2021 tried GI Microb-X, low fodmap, S Boulardii, PHGG, Caprylic Acid, Candidefense and many more supplements since but still lost weight. Have constipation, mild bloating, stomach is hard after eating, slow motility, lots of belching, intermittent gallbladder/bile flow pain esp when eating fats.
Hoping my new practitioner can treat methane SIBO properly? Can I ask do you see many patients with weight loss issues? I really need to stop the weight loss and restart absorbing food. Thanks Kevin
This is a less common symptom I see. A good strong enzyme can help some here!
@@ByronHerbalist Many thanks Byron Herbalist Todd. I'm in London UK btw, have lived &worked in Sydney and Melbourne previously good times! Yes, I've had Pure Encaps pancreatin in 2021, as was diagnosed with minimal pancreatitis in Jan 2020, and this helped reduce pancreas pain when eating. Then in 2022 I found I don't really need pancreatin as pain was greatly reduced & my elastase improved from 208 to 378, and sometimes over 500 w/o supplementing. I do have Terranova digestive enzymes sometimes, I find tudca helpful for reducing gallbladder/bile flow pain (my bilirubin is always slightly elevated at 26). But nothing helps stop the weight loss or regain weight. Scans/tests have been okay. Recent Metabolomix/organic test shows low B6, B12, very low B9, slightly low digestive enzymes, very low taurine, low good bacteria etc.
I've read methane SIBO can cause weight loss as the bacteria can "eat" the food and stop bile/enzymes from working. It also blocks absorption. I think previous SIBO teatments have not worked, as supplements made me more constipated. I should have 2 bm's a day which is my healthy normal, but only have 1 or less. I will start going to go to saunas and will hopefully get a good treatment plan from my practitioner including an effective prokinetic &biofilm disruptor.
As awful NHS GPs prescribed PPIs/ranitidine hs2 historically (2018-19 on &off) and had antibiotics for HPylori (2015), SIBO could be a root cause. I understand this congestion can lead to pancreatitis and gallbladder issues.
I have had similar weight loss issues despite eating well. Have gradually lost weight since a bad stomach upset. All
Tests and scans have been fine so was wondering if I too have had some kind of SIBO. My consultant has basically fobbed me off with IBS!
@@KevDogg683 Hi! I was wondering if you looked into leaky gut? I am not a doctor or any kind of health professional, I am just trying to self-diagnose and so far I came across leaky gut and sibo as possibilities. Anyways, good luck with your health!
@@analovejoy3730 Hi Ana, thanks for the message. I did have leaky gut (elevated zonulin), pathogens, high secretory IgA, high Geotrichum candidum, high e coli, low bifidobacteria/Akkermansia etc in my gut test in 2021. Gut test in 2022 with another lab showed no leaky gut, normal secretory IgA, no pathogens but high e coli, low bifidobacteria/Akkermansia remain. The latest test does not cover Geotrichum candidum so may need to check this. Recently, as I have intermittent gallbladder/bile flow pain, I've looked into the Moritz liver flush, I've completed 2 flushes and I've passed a lot of stones so appears I need to keep going to fully cleanse. Also following my practitioners methane SIBO treatment &biphasic diet no sweet potatoes, grains, fruit etc. Hoping my body can stop losing & start regaining weight soon! ☀️
Great info. Could not keep up with all the herbs nor able to read as too small.
Could you do another video
I’ve linked to the article under the video if that helps :-)
I'm in the US. I'm having a terrible time trying to find someone to help with my issues.
Hi Byron!. Does shortness of breath and brain fog common symptoms in methane sibo patients? I have an abdominal distention(bloating) that doesn't settle down, it's like a permanent symptom of distention and with that comes shortness of breath( slight but still noticeable) did you ever find these symptoms in your patients? I tried raw garlic but doesn't seem to help, i start to have odor problems, same when i have eggs( probably sulfur metabolism problems).. could it be the H2S sibo type?
I have high methane too and have severe brain fog and shortness of breath, but mainly after eating from histamines and also stress. Curious to know too.
If your abdomina distended then your lungs get pressure.
You will have shortness of breadth.
@@zorromohammad1999 I realized what you just said this week. I was observing my body and wondering if I actually have histamine issues. And I came to the conclusion that I don’t, it’s just severe bloat and pressure in the abdomen and lungs. I’m so happy I don’t have histamines.
@@elizabethwilliams7330 interment fast.
Drink strong ginger black tea before dinner.
Non fermentable diet.
Your symptoms will go in few weeks.
If your root cause of SIBO is mycotoxin exposure, this can definitely cause shortness of breath. Low iron also will do it.
Thanks for sharing, do you have any case studies with SIBO in pregnant women? Wondering which herbs you'd select or specifically avoid.
Your content is fantastic and has given me hope in what has been a very long negative gut journey.
A quick question in relation to this case study and/or patients you treat for SIBO, are your patients on a restricted or elimination diet during similar treatment above? Or have they returned to eating fibre and carbohydrates during treatment?
Thank you so much for sharing, this is a fascinating case study. Did the patient stop the herbs before re-testing? And, when using herbs containing anthraquinones for chronic constipation associated with methane production do you have concerns about reliance? So far, I’ve resisted stimulant laxatives for that reason but am I being over cautious? 🙏🦋
What about Lugol's iodine? I've heard that iodine, in high enough doses, can wipe out bad bacteria and fungus.
I heard Dr Berg mention this as well
I’m almost certain i have sibo, i have slow gut function, bloating… all my problems started after taking medication for over a year for heartburn/indigestion, then i had my gallbladder removed which made my digestive system even worse!. I now have quite a rare condition called sphincter of oddi dysfunction which is extremely painful before i had my ERCP to cut the sphincter but it can still come back and cause more pain in the future. My bile flow seems poor but taking things that stimulate bile can actually irritate my sphincter of oddi. I’ve started taking pure extra virgin olive oil each morning and will take garlic daily now too. 😀
I'm sorry you were forced to take your gallbladder out and under a lot of pressure to take prescription medication for reflux.
What's helping with bile flow
How many months will he be on the protocol? Which probiotics do you like for him?
I have methane Sibo and going to see my Nd tomorrow and look forward to have more knowledge on this
Wonderful video. The case studies are very helpful. I’ve got a case that has been really tricking me. Constipation dominant symptoms with foul smelling gas but lactulose breath test showed >2ppm methane and very little >8ppm hydrogen. Flaxseed, hydration, movement, magnesium, and probiotics are not getting things moving. Patient used Prucalopride and noticed a significant improvement in bowel movements and symptoms. Without the rise from hydrogen and methane in the breath test, what should we be looking for in this constipation dominant case? Thank you Doc!
I have been strugling wirh methane sibo for so many years now. I cant get the stuff you are recommending in my country. The only ting that ease the symptoms is oregano leaf. Terrible disease. Keep up the good work and make more videos with methane dominant sibo cases.
Thanks for the input! Methane sibo is a big passion and focus of mine. More coming soon!
The problem in California is finding Doctors that test for SIBO. There are no Doctors within three counties around where I presently preside. Even then , I don’t know if there are any Doctors past these counties ? .
It will be great to see the same report but about stubborn hydrogen case!
Would love to see some specific probiotic choices for methane sibo
You got it! On the list now. I don’t see direct benefit but supporting the treatment they can help immensely. More soon
Hi Bryon, what do you do if you had Methane Sibo, but now have hydrogen :( Just go on to treat with different herbs or do you need additional protocol?
I can’t find turkey rhubarb in my region, just the rhubarb. It would still work for motility purposes?
Fever and 3 days fasting is the only way to heal.
I like the case study - thank you for sharing. It’s helpful to see a real world experience with testing to support it. Have you come across any herbs that minimally disrupt the good bacteria? I have SIBO, IMO, and Candida overgrowth, but also low good bacteria which makes it difficult to incorporate herbs which can affect both the bad and good bacteria.
Yes this is very important! I like to start with herbs that balance first and if needed moving towards stronger antimicrobials. Sometimes we can get away with probiotics and probiotics as an effective treatment. More on that soon!
My breath test showed normal hydrogen and hydrogen sulfide, but methane at 40. Fighting constipation with mag oxide and gum arabic (soluble fiber). I would like to try some of the herbs you recommend to speed up transit time (turkey rhubarb, ginger, etc.). Which one is the best to start with and where is a good place to find them online? Thanks again for your videos...very helpful.
My methane was at 14 but still.
Todd, Thank you so much for your videos! I just found your videos by searching archea and sibo on TH-cam. I have been watching and taking notes on several and lightbulbs are turning on for me. It is helping me to understand how previous treatments have failed and how 1 treatment helped me feel amazing for 6 months but didn’t last. What you said - all about the constipation and gut transit. Question: What is your opinion on NAC as a biofilm buster and how does it compare to rock rose? I’ve been taking NAC but wondering if it effective as a biofilm buster. Thank you.
Thanks for the kind words! I don't frequently use NAC but have colleagues that rely on it as a biofilm disruptor. I find when we really need to disrupt biofilms we need the strong stuff. Bismuth can be tricky to work with and is a prescription here but when it is combined with a few extra bits it can really disrupt and shift treatment resistant bugs. H. pylori is a big one here!
I’ve just been diagnosed with this… I’m hoping this is fixable
Oh and flaxseeds n ppgg
Good video. I myself have been struggling with SIBO for over 10 years and have not found the right combination of herbs to finally get rid of my Methane SIBO for good. Was wondering if your liquid herb combinations are sold and shipped internationally. Or if you can recommend a protocol. I have used Biotics ADP, FC Cidal, Allimax, biome balance with limited success, but was never able to fully eliminate my SIBO even when combined with Rifaxime and Flagyl for 5 weeks.
I've been taking Biocidin drops with GI Detox + for three weeks now. My stomach cramps have nearly disappeared but I still have terrible constipation and slow evacuation. To eliminate the constipation, I've been taking 1,000 mg of magnesium citrate twice a day but that gives me diarrhea.
I'm trying the low FODMAP diet but it's too early to tell if it's going to help. I am very confused as what to take and what to eat- it's very frustrating.
@@dianepayne9100 do you know for sure that you have SIBO? Have you taken a breath test for SIBO? Many SIBO like symptoms are also symptoms of other underlying gut issues
@@markh2719 No, Mark I'm not positive. I self diagnosed myself with SIBO and IBS -M because my GI doctor was a waste of time. I found another doctor, via a friend, who suggested I get a MRI, a colonoscopy and an endoscopy to rule out Crohn's, colitis, celiac disease and diverticulitis. Cancer has been ruled out. So, hopefully, this doctor will diagnose me and I'll be able to get my life back again.
Vitamunda colon hyperdetox is the best biofilm cleanse out there! You might want to give it a try!
@@markh2719 No, I just guessed because my GI doctor was useless
What kind of diet do you suggest for methane sibo? I heard the carnivore diet gets rid of it
It depends on what the underlying cause is.
Carnivore drastically decreased my methane SIBO symptoms while on the carnivore diet, but because I had undiagnosed Hashimoto’s (hypothyroidism) the symptoms came right back when I discontinued carnivore.
@@Ephedrenaline well, I’m glad you found relief when people tell you to find the root cause you start going down the never ending rabbit hole if they say that anabiotic’s or herbals kill the bacteria who cares about the root cause you either get rid of it or you don’t it doesn’t just come back problem is never got rid of all of it in the first place
@@Ephedrenalineme to i have Hashimoto and sibo So what diet are you on now?
@@LymuraGaming Sorry to hear that, I understand the struggle so well.
Carnivore. It keeps my Hashimotos in remission like nothing else. Meat from ruminant animals, fat, salt, water.
I used to include black coffee but eventually cut that out and saw huge improvements.
I supplement with lactoferrin (for iron levels) and selenium every day. I also take vitamin D3 (with K2) and a methylated B complex.
I feel amazing. I hope you'll find what works for you. 🙏
Excellent Video
Just found you today Jsnuary 15, 2024.
Will listen to more
Thanks so much! Anything you’re most interested in?
I have bad breath and sibo symptoms. I took antibiotics course and it's clear that halitosis is caused by bacteria. But unfortunately symptoms return in 3 days after completion.
How can i solve this?
Did you change your diet after the antibiotics?
@@myasavage8103 no
@@virtualrealistic6242 That may be why symptoms returned. You have to manage after treatment to prevent it from flaring back up
@@myasavage8103 tell me how to manage
@@virtualrealistic6242 Eat foods that are easy for the digestive system to digest. This prevents malabsorption causing foods to sit in gut and causing bad bacteria all over again. Maybe try low carb, definitely stay away from sugars breads and processed foods. Google foods to prevent sibo flair ups
Is there a Bifidobacteria combo probiotic you recommmed?
And he was doing LOW FODMAP at the same time of the antimicrobial treatment? Can i have ginger itself instead of the supplement, and does it have a difference between those in regards to improvement in transit time?
Yes and turmeric make sure its Organic.
@@puppetken How much raw ginger?
Do you know why people say sibo is not curable when it is ?
Hello Byron. How can I connect to you for the treatment. I am from India
Same here need help for methane based. Iam from India as well.
@byron are you seeing a huge influx of these issues since Covid? I heard mcas has increased 10 fold just wondering if this could also be due to Covid?
Yes, still not sure if its connected but histamine and covid is a definite connection
When you say liquid herbs, do you mix essential oils into water? Or how do you administer it?
Wow!❤ thank you! Very informative! I have not found a Fm Doc or Integrative Med. Doc, or naturopath in the U,S. Who knows as much about Methane SIBO as you do! Can u give us the dosages, since you cant take US patients?
Dosages are tough as it is all individualised to the patient. In the future I’ll try to be more specific on ranges of doses I would consider for a case 😊
What if I have very quick transit time! My system is throwing off very quickly
What is the right way to use oregano oil which dose and for how long ?
Has anyone on here actually fully recovered from imo/ methane sibo?
I know this is a bit odd but can we see this cases result after a month or 2 ? Did his hydrogen go down? What kind of sibo test solution did he take Glucose, or Lactulose???
Thanks, wish you were in Hawaii.
Do your suggestions here apply to methane plus hydrogen? Or is that a different kettle of fish? Many thanks, Todd.
For mixed SIBO I'd treat the presenting symptoms and hope to clear them both. If not simply adjust the plan to target the treatment resistant form. Hope that helps :-)
What if you have both hydrogen and methane sibo? I tested positive for both and they said I had more hydrogen than methane. I’ve had this 10 years now and no GI has helped me. I can only eat 10-15 foods now. My symptoms have been rough and I’ve developed another autoimmune disease. I’m losing hope.
I don’t have bloating or gas but have both hydrogen and methane mainly constipation more systemic issues like horrible brain fog and fatigue
Hi Richard you should listen to this guy who finally cured his SIBO and really bad brain fog, I’ve had this issues for about 7 years and have tried different approaches and just the other day this guy’s video randomly popped up on my TH-cam and I’m SO glad it did, I’m planning to implement his suggestions. th-cam.com/video/53f1gsRUxvY/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Gt5lUImriiZRI0yN
A few questions: How do you know if a prokinetic is working? How long do you give it?
I would track transit time here th-cam.com/video/0Aj_RmdIHTw/w-d-xo.html to see if you need prokinetics
What causes this anyway? I’ve had this for several weeks, and as a consequence I get about 4-5 hours of sleep which is taking a massive toll on my psychological health. I’ve taken a high dose of Allicin, Biocidin, plenty of fiber etc on a consistent basis and no results
How many mg is considered a "higher dose" of magnesium oxide? Thanks!
1000-1500mg of elemental magnesium in the mag oxide product is high dose
Im seeing good results with garlic capsules...but im not sure about the dosage ..i take 2 garlic capsules in the morning empty stomach...its working..can you tell me the dosage plz...im also taking cloves by the way ...they are reducing bloating...i chew around 4 to 5 cloves per day..may i know how many cloves per day plz?
Excellent news! Garlic can generally be taken quite high dose if tolerated. Cloves too! On a weight basis for cloves you can go all the way up to 1 to 1.5 grams. Encapsulating the ground cloves helps, it’s potent!

Hi man love your videos, i wish i was in Australia and work with you! My methane peak is only 16ppm in the large intestine, but I’m so symptomatic! Is that even possible? I’m taking rifaximin and Allicin and my constipation is way better but the bloating is still here! Also when I take allimax it seems I can’t digest the garlic, I keep burping for hours
Thanks for the great feedback! Glad you are seeing some improvements but it can be a journey for some.
@@ByronHerbalist thank you! But do you think even with low level of methane (16ppm) can I be so symptomatic? Also can allicin taken for methane cause in increase in gas at the beginning?
Do you have any thoughts on Thiamine or TTFD in regards to this?
EO Nutrition would be the go to on that. I like b1 for some patients here
What probiotic would you use for severe methane overgrowth
Not many help directly here unfortunately
Is there an all-in-1 supplement we can purchase for this?
I wish! No, unfortunately it isn’t that straight forward.
Why no allicin? Apparently most effective against methane-producing microbes.
From memory he had worked with it before with no success. Always worth a 6-8 week trial to rule it in our out.
Are you recommending clove oil for methane?
more clove as a whole herb. If I can find clove oil in a supplement I'll use that too at times
Can bacteria and archeean become resistant to herbal antibiotics (berberine, oregano, allicin, neem)?
Yes, although I am less concerned around this than some other colleagues.
Just with more magnesium zinc n vitamin b complex I’m now on day 5 of pooping in a row! So happy lol
So happy!
Can SIBO cause increased histamine? and his intolerance? How can I contact you, what is the site?
SIBO is a major driver of histamine intolerance! link in the video description
Is mastic gum good aswell for this difficult disease?
I haven’t used it here yet and haven’t seen any studies on it either. Could be helpful though
Where and how to get sibo breath test in Aus ? I have done a urea breath test through GP but that was negative
SIBOtest.com is the lab we use. They're great!
Does Rock Rose also help with hydrogen sibo?
It could. It isn't something I use but am open to it if needed. Biofilms and it is astringent too
I think antibiotics screwd my stomach up early in the beginning of the year I think emeprazole screwed me up with constipation and I also took Ciprofloxcacin does antibiotics cause mathane sibo been like this for 4months lost alot of weight do to constipation is there anything I can do I heard that I need to repopulate my gut with good bacteria
😊😂
Is the elemental diet something worth looking into? I read it has 80% success rate for patients?
I don’t see great success in my patient population but do have one or two that have seen big benefits here
@@ByronHerbalist Ok thanks for update. Is low fodmap a better option. Thank you very much for the info and updating us on sibo and got work you do 🙏
I reside in Canada, my son 19 was diagnosed with methane Sibo. After a year of tests, drs and specialists I did my own research and had him tested for Sibo. I would love your help with herbs…not a lot of help in Canada. But if you know someone pls refer them to me. My son is 10 pounds underweight and already tried the fodmap diet. It helped but didn’t cure him, he tried antibiotics twice and although symptoms improved slightly still not gone. I’m frustrated and so is he. Pls help!
Is bad breath a symptom? Has it improved

What was he eating during this?
Lower FODMAP and reintroducing trigger foods over time successfully!
@@ByronHerbalist thanks!
Where do you find these herbs?
that can be the tricky bit. A local herbalist can help :-)
Can methane Sibo cause Gerd? I have had it every day for 18months and can’t tolerate PPIs, I took Biocidin for a few days, then stopped and ended up with very itchy skin for 6 weeks. Maybe I stopped the Biocidin too soon and maybe it was the Herxheiner reaction? My bowel movements are every other day….I have poor T4 to T3 conversion so I’m trying NDT hormone, I’m on levothyroxine at the moment. I’m not sure whether to treat thyroid first or whether to try say allicin first…..it sure is very tricky. 🤔😳 I have lpr too and my oesophagus isn’t always working as it should, I’m in the UK. I do have slow transit time, I’m bloated I think, but been this way for years so don’t know what normal is. Any advice would be appreciated. 🙏
Have you been tested for Helicobacter pylori?
@Valentina Dehtyar I tried the armour thyroid and been suffering panic attacks…..I wish I hadn’t gone there. I’m now back on levothyroxine and trying to get back to normal. What are you trying?
Dr says I need synthroid and I really don’t wish to go down that rabbit hole
I am on NP thyroid and have methane SIBO. Here are some things I’ve found helpful:
- Atrantil helps massively with bloating
- Digestive enzymes help break down a heavy meal a LOT.
- a capsule of ginger with a capsule of artichoke extract right before every meal.
- a whole food, low fat, plant based diet 👍🏻
when I have a good bowel movement I feel immediate relief almost like an orgasm. i can think and breath again ..everything back to normal.
I have chronic constipation and want to have breath test but i'm confused which breath test to be done? Methane breath test or hydrogen breath test? 🙄
See if you can get both in one. Here in Australia this is the standard SIBO breath test.
