  • How to Fix SIBO & Prevent Recurrence:
    1. What is SIBO?: from a historical perspective to the latest research, SIBO bacteria, symptoms, and related health issues
    2. How to diagnose SIBO: why I recommend one type of breath test over another and challenges with the breath testing
    3. Three gases: hydrogen, methane, and hydrogen sulfide, and associated symptoms
    Other forms of dysbiosis: SIBO-negative does not mean that you are free of other forms of dysbiosis
    4. Treatment options include:
    - Antibiotics (rational and when they may be appropriate)
    - Herbals (efficacy and use in combination)
    - Specific probiotics (efficacy based on published studies)
    - Other supplements (5 things to keep in mind when taking
    supplements)
    5. Diet: beyond symptoms, what 1,500 GIs say about it, and why it has to be part of any successful treatment plan
    6. Identifying and addressing underlying causes: importance and examples
    7. How to prevent recurrence: the Fast Tract Diet 3 pillar approach

    I just watched a video of a young man that experienced debilitating symtoms for years. After 1000s $$$ in tests and specialist he somehow discovered when he took a supplement of artichokes and ginger all his symptoms subsided. His hair even grew back.
    In my own experience, i find relief with a cocktail of black cumin seed oil, ginger capsules, mushroom immune mix, Dandelion. I notice a reduction in inflammation. Another thing that I've had luck with is drinking a half cup olive oil with a cup of lemon juice b4 bed laying on my right side. No carbs or fried or vegetable seed oils

    1- Go with carnivore diet for a month or two
    2- Use intermittent fasting

    I believe SIBO largely created my severe anemia . I thought it was heavy periods initially but I retested a few months after an endometrial ablation surgery to end my periods and my labs reflected no change! I recently tested positive for SIBO. Finishing antibiotics right now but have yet to see any change at all in my bowels .

    This is the best video on SIBO that I have come across so far and I have seen many. As a clinical pharmacist, medical herbalist and nutritionist, with more than 25 years practice, I can only say that I will do my best to spread a word about you and this exceptional presentation.
    For us practitioners, it is quite often challenging to convince patients to give a chance to a few supplements in order to improve their condition. A good supplement without chemical additives or fillers are usually very expensive but also the most effective ones. We have also realised that without appropriate dietary guidelines and changes all the effort would only give short term results. No sugar and a very low carb diet is ultimate solution for a healthy gut.
    Thank you again for this amazing presentation. All the best to you and all your viewers.

    • @jac1161
      @jac1161 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Yes. And in order to 'fix' a problem, one has to like to THINK. I was gaslighted before I knew the term, as a child, just asking questions because I wanted to learn. And what I learned was that there was a major humility (lack thereof) issue in the system - they didn't know the answer, but instead of "that is a good question. I do not know, but thank you for asking and I will be looking into that"....their insecurity was projected onto me. They messed up my life as a child that led to a burn out of an organ in adulthood. It's a crying shame....

      Also pre digestive enzymes help. Juice cleanse helps. Etc.
      Takes up to 12 weeks of pure clean eating. No fake food, jo sugar, only carbs from veggies. No gluten allowed at all, avoid all grains. Round up in too many crops, only organic

      The few naturopaths (one I follow online, the other see in person) has explained to me carnivore can seem to help bc your removing everything but does not help get the diversity back that you need in order to live a normal life. Or like the one commenter its just a bandaid. That's why so many carnivores I've watched realize they can't consume anything without a responce anymore. I say this bc I was trying to do carnivore when this all happened for me and the pendulum swung too far and I lost beneficial bacteria. What a new naturopath is recommending for myself is a strong probiotic a specific one (just ordered/can't remember the name) and I really hope it works. Alongside-ive been watching Dr Cabral here on YT. so I hope to get back to normal again

I’m finally seeing a GI where I live after waiting a year for my appointment. Now, I have so many more GI problems. I just feel like I haven’t been able live my life now for almost 10 years.

Celiac disease induced SIBO is a lot more common than people think, according the new research atleast 30% of celiac patients who don't see improvement after starting the gluten free diet have SIBO. I will tell you the best things that have helped me SIBO greatly so far. Oregano oil, Atrantil, Neem, Allicin, and recently soil based probiotics have seemed to help me a lot. Remember with probiotics they can take up to a few months of taking them everyday to see improvement. And they can also make you a bit worse when you first start taking them. But If you havn't tried any of these things yet I have listed, I suggest you do so to find yourself some relief. You can message me back and ask me if you are interested in knowing about the dosages.

We are all also unique so what works for one person may not work for another. I think I have learned to listen to my body and be more instinctive with Sibo. Any DR who says they have a one cure fits all is not giving you the best information and advice to fit your body. It’s a nuisance but it’s a situation we have to work on, learning adapting and trying until we find a way thru. Good luck everyone on your journey.

    Glad you made this video Dr. Norm. It's incredible disheartening to see how many struggle with SIBO / Dysbiosis and MMC issues without even knowing the fix can be quite simple.
    For me personally, due to SIFO along with SIBO---the treatment is a little bit more muddled. Digestive Enzymes and HCL has only made things worse over time. The SIBO (giardia) did shift towards SIFO over the years. I dont accredit it to HCL specifically (impossible to know), but even yeast based probiotics now give me issues. I find it interesting. I could not digest foods without enzymes, now I don't use any and I digest just fine. Even big amounts of healthy fats.
    In the end, in my case, it seems to be an MMC issue post black mold exposure for 2-4 months. Causing a trickle down of CIRS, Sarcoidosis, MCAS, MCS and a whole host more. Along with CPTSD and Celiac as a base (since age 2). After connecting the dots, CIRS and MMC dysfunction as well as nervous system dysregulation---I feel like I finally have a roadmap on what needs to be addressed. Taken 14 years to figure it out, but finally getting a big picture as most doctors, nautorpaths, functional doctors etc have not been able to help me. I will devote my life to help others and delve deep into the mechanics of everything if I manage to heal.

    I would also add that it is important to reduce your stress response as much as possible when you are trying to heal your gut. My naturopath recommended an adrenal support supplement which helped rid me of crippling anxiety. I also started a gentle exercise program including stretching, calisthenics and yoga, plus walking my dog down my peaceful country road. I was also having worrying gastrocardiac issues that I only found out recently are related. The deep breathing of relaxing and meditative yoga, helps those symptoms as well.
    I have found some tummy issues have come back I think because I have reintroduced too many not so healthy foods back into my diet, plus sometimes I take ibuprofen for back and neck issues which cause headaches, and those cause inflammation of the stomach lining. So I think it’s time to go back on a more restrictive diet plan, and be more strict in the future.

    Can bile acid deconjugation be the same as bile reflux which causes gastritis?
    This is the closest so far I've heard anyone talk about bile acids in reference to gut health and SIBO, except for very few who are also suffering but not doctors.
    I can see how bile reflux could cause SIBO but wondering, could it be the other way around as well? Can sludgy bile, bile that doesn't flow well cause the pyloric valve to malfunction? (I know there's other causes like ulcer and/or scarring or possible other obstructions, but barring those).
    Like with the LES valve that opens when it's not supposed to because of lack of stomach acid, can the same hold true for the pyloric valve weakening because the bile isn't working correctly?

      Some fasting makes sense if you have a healthy weight. I'm not sure how you make garlic water, but keep in mind that most of the carbs in garlic (90%) are fructooligosaccharide, a highly fermentable FODMAP. More than a little garlic would almost certainly make bloating worse.

    If you only treat it with herbal antimicrobials such as berberine, allicin and oregano oil, do you need probiotics afterwards or would it not be necessary?

    • @DrNormGutHealth
      @DrNormGutHealth  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Interesting question Raquel. Keep in mind that most current probiotics are based on strains that are easy to grow, freeze dry and commercialize, and don't (with a few recent exceptions - A. muciniphila for example) include keystone anaerobic strains. Pharma antibiotics disrupt the commensal microbiome leading to dysbiosis and potentially life threatening complications - Yes, we need them for serious infections, but there is always risk.
      Antimicrobial herbs, while less potent likely cause similar if muted disruption. The study linked below showed that probiotics actually slow microbiome recuperation after conventional antibiotics. You might expect the same after herbal antimicrobials.
      What I find fascinating is the concept and potential of autologous FMT (banking your own poop) before antibiotics. FMT resulted in "rapid near-complete gut mucosal microbiome recolonization". www.cell.com/cell/fulltext/S0092-8674(18)31108-5?_returnURL=https%3A%2F%2Flinkinghub.elsevier.com%2Fretrieve%2Fpii%2FS0092867418311085%3Fshowall%3Dtrue#%20
