I’ve previously discussed this widespread epidemic we are experiencing called SIBO, small intestinal bacterial overgrowth. For those of you unfamiliar with this condition, it is the situation that has developed in millions of people not from a virus or exposures to other people, but from numerous factors in modern life, but especially overexposure to antibiotics, food additives, herbicides, and prescription drugs. Exposure to these factors has resulted in the loss of literally hundreds of microbial species in our gastrointestinal microbiomes, i.e., the trillions of microbes dwelling in our GI tracts. These microbes helped suppress the proliferation of unhealthy, mostly fecal, microbial species. But, in an astounding number of people, these unhealthy fecal species have not only proliferated, but also ascended up the 24-feet of small intestine where they don’t belong. This can be experienced in a variety of ways that includes food intolerances, unexplained bloating and diarrhea, irritable bowel syndrome, or even skin rashes, depression, anxiety, weight gain, and numerous other health conditions. So, in this episode of Defiant Health, let’s talk about the choices you have for pushing this common situation back to regain control over health and reduce or reverse numerous health conditions, even if your doctor knows nothing about this problem. Herbal antibiotics:Candibactin AR + Candibactin BR from MetagenicsFC Cidal + Dysbiosis from Biotics ResearchSIBO Yogurt microbes:Lactobacillus gasseri BNR17Lactobacillus reuteri ATCC 6475Bacillus coagulans GBI30,6086Use the same method we follow for making L. reuteri yogurt but ferment at 106 degrees F. _____________________________________________________________________________Get your 15% Paleovalley discount on fermented grass-fed beef sticks, Bone Broth Collagen, and low-carb snack bars here.
