In this episode, I'm talking with Shivan Sarna, who's a leading voice in educating others about SIBO, or small intestinal bacterial overgrowth. We've captured several episodes about SIBO to show how folks treat it differently. It's a really common cause of diarrhea, constipation, gas and bloating. Shivan Sarna is the author of Healing SIBO, TV Host, and the creator of the SIBO SOS® Summits and Community, the Digestion SOS® documentary series, the Gut & Microbiome Rescue Summit, the Lymphatic Rescue Summit, the Dental-Health Connection Summit, the Liver and Gallbladder Rescue Summit, and Chronic Condition Research, a 501(c) 3 non-profit to further research under-funded medical conditions. After a lifetime of struggling with health issues, Shivan made it her mission to demystify her own health struggles - and to share that information with others who were struggling. Her special skill is finding and connecting with the leading expert doctors and connecting those experts with the people who need their help. Her personal mantra is SOS: Save Our Selves, and that's what she has helped thousands of people do! On this episode, Shivan shares her personal SIBO story and talks about the different options for treating SIBO, from herbal approaches to a more integrative approach with antibiotics that only target the small intestine. She's tried all of them and will share what worked for her and all she's learned since becoming a SIBO educator. In my conversation with Shivan, you'll hear… The number-one underlying cause of SIBO Some of the odd symptoms that may be connected to SIBO The one type of test that accurately identifies SIBO What to eat if you have SIBO The various ways to treat SIBO How to help your migrating motor complex to prevent SIBO or relapses Why it's critical to take a prokinetic after clearing SIBO Why some people get food poisoning and others don't after eating the same thing Shivan's book, Healing SIBO: https://www.amazon.com/Healing-SIBO-Bloating-Weight-Issues/dp/0593191773/ref=sr_1_1?crid=Q2DFEEZHRPSX&keywords=healing+sibo&qid=1649194490&s=books&sprefix=healing+sibo%2Cstripbooks%2C162&sr=1-1 Shivan Sarna's site: https://sibosos.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sibo_sos/ SIBO SOS Facebook Community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/SIBOSOSVirtualSummit Episode web page and free 1-page summary of this episode: https://rebuildingmyhealth.com/sibo-success Listen to Rebuilding My Health Radio wherever you find your favorite podcasts… Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Google Play, Alexa, Spotify, and much more!

My guest this week is Dr. Melanie Keller, who struggled with digestive issues for years before learning that it was caused by SIBO, or small intestinal bacterial overgrowth. Dr. Melanie Keller earned her doctor of naturopathic medicine degree from the National University of Natural Medicine (NUNM) in Portland, Oregon. Her education included an extended internship and post-graduate training with Steven Sandberg-Lewis as well as post-graduate training with Allison Siebecker. She went on to become a founding physician in the development of the SIBO Center and SIBO Symposium at National University of Natural Medicine. Once in Southern California, she spent time with leading SIBO physician, Dr. Mark Pimentel, MD, and his team at Cedars-Sinai's GI Motility Program and the Pimentel Laboratory. While in naturopathic school, Dr. Melanie discovered the cause of her longtime digestive problems was actually SIBO, or rather, an excess of methogens. She eventually treated it successfully, but it took multiple tries. Now, she shares this knowledge with her patients, for whom she develops highly individualized treatments. In this episode, Melanie primarily shares how she was able to treat SIBO without antibiotics. In my conversation with Melanie you'll hear… How she diagnosed herself About the different types of SIBO Why methane SIBO isn't actually small intestinal bacterial overgrowth How too-low or too-high stomach acid contributes to SIBO or methanogens The type of testing required to assess stomach acid levels The steps she took to treat SIBO How addressing her stomach acid levels made all the difference for her The role of diet and why long-term restrictive diets are not recommended How she prevents SIBO relapses Episode web page: www.rebuildingmyhealth.com/sibo-without-antibiotics Learn more about Melanie at https://www.sibosolution.com/ or https://www.intuitiveedgedoctor.com/.

It’s the season 3 finale Q&A episode! And I have a dream guest here with me to answer all your lingering SIBO queries: the king of SIBO himself, Dr. Mark Pimentel. If you’ve already been down the SIBO rabbit hole, Dr. Pimentel likely needs no introduction. He’s the director of The Pimentel Lab at Cedars-Sinai in Los Angeles, where he researches many pieces of the IBS puzzle, including gastrointestinal motility and bacterial overgrowths. He’s published dozens of studies on these subjects, and it’s fair to say that much of the data-backed information we’ve covered in the first 3 seasons of this podcast, has been discovered through Dr. Pimentel’s work. There were a few recurring macro themes to your questions, so in today’s episode, we’re going to focus on Post-Infectious IBS, Methane overgrowth, and Hydrogen Sulfide SIBO. If you don’t hear your question, don’t stress—there’s a big possibility I’ve covered it in a past episode already. Those who are new here might want to backtrack and listen to season 1, where we cover a lot of SIBO 101 topics related to the aftermath of a diagnosis. The podcast will be on hiatus until the fall while I focus on putting the finishing touches on the SIBO Made Simple book (!!). In the meantime, stay in touch via instagram (I’m @phoebelapine) and by subscribing to my newsletter. Of course, subscribing to the podcast is the best way to be sure you’ll know when new episode start airing again. A quick taste of what we’ll cover: The proper definition of IBS, Post-Infectious IBS and SIBO Why the IBS Smart Test is useful and how to decide when to use it versus a lactulose SIBO breath test How long it takes for Post-Infectious IBS antibodies to be cleared from the body Precautions those diagnosed need to take when traveling abroad Advice for methane SIBO and constipation sufferers and the latest research about what a different beast it is Atrantil as a treatment for methane SIBO What percentage of people with SIBO have Hydrogen Sulfide and treatment plans And so much more...

Celiac disease is a big risk factor for SIBO, and yet, it’s often an overlapping condition that many doctors miss. In today’s conversation, I’m joined by Dr. Lisa Shaver to discuss the relationship between leaky gut, gluten, and the body’s autoimmune response in someone with celiac disease—and how these mechanisms can lead to other gut disorders like SIBO. We also get into why gluten has become public enemy number 1 in today’s modern food culture, whether non-celiac gluten sensitivity is a legit condition, and the dangers of someone going on a gluten-free diet without proper medical due diligence. Dr. Shaver is a naturopathic physician and acupuncturist in Portland, Oregon whose private practice focuses on celiac disease, non-celiac gluten sensitivity, GERD, SIBO, IBS and other digestive disorders. A quick taste of what we’ll cover: The genetic components of celiac disease and what triggers its expression How leaky gut is impacted by the vagus nerve, emotional traumas or stressors, and the downwind impact for both autoimmune conditions like celiac and SIBO Why celiac disease is on the rise Common mistakes people make when testing for celiac or unpacking patients’ symptoms The most important lifestyle changes celiacs need to make in addition to eliminating gluten Whether non-celiacs with SIBO should eliminate gluten from their diet How the gluten-free diet and the low FODMAP approach can be explored in tandem The difference between food sensitivities and autoimmune-based food reactions And so much more...
