In this episode of Proven Health Alternatives, I sit down with Dr. Allison Siebecker, one of the leading voices in Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO). If you're looking for the best way to test, treat, and manage SIBO, this episode has the answers. We break down common misconceptions, the different gas types involved (yes, that matters!), and how SIBO connects to IBS and other gut issues. Dr. Siebecker also shares the best testing methods, including the lactulose breath test, and why one-size-fits-all treatments just don't work. Plus, we get into diet strategies like FODMAP and elemental diets, the probiotic debate, and how to actually prevent relapse. If you've struggled with gut issues—or treat patients who do—you won't want to miss this one! Key Takeaways: The Complex Nature of SIBO: SIBO involves an overgrowth of bacteria in the small intestine and can lead to symptoms similar to those of IBS, such as bloating, diarrhea, and more. Testing and Diagnosis: The lactulose breath test is emphasized as an effective method for diagnosing SIBO, and it's important to distinguish between the different types of gas overproduction involved. Treatment Approaches: Treatment for SIBO includes pharmaceuticals, herbal antibiotics, and dietary changes like the elemental diet. Success rates are high, but multiple rounds may be required. Preventive Measures and Relapse: Using prokinetics and maintaining a suitable low-carbohydrate diet can help prevent SIBO relapse, which is common in chronic cases. The Role of Probiotics: While probiotics can aid in treatment, their appropriateness depends on individual tolerance and phasing during SIBO management. More About Dr. Allison Siebecker: Dr. Allison Siebecker has been at the forefront of SIBO research and treatment since 2011, helping thousands worldwide with her integrative protocols.

Did you know your body contains more microbial cells instead of human cells? One of the most prevalent types of microbes in our bodies are bacteria. Bacteria are essential for our body to function, as they influence our digestion, mood, skin, and so much more. However, things can start to get out of balance if some types of bacteria start to take over the microbiome. This is known as Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth or SIBO. Up to 36 million people have SIBO, with up to 84% of these people also having symptoms of IBS. This can make understanding if you have SIBO and how to treat it confusing. That's why we're so glad to chat on IG Live with Alexa Ress-Sarkadi, a SIBO and Gut Health Coach. During this Live, we're going to discuss how to diagnose SIBO, why carbs aren't the enemy, how to prevent SIBO from returning, and so much more.

Although she realize now that God will not put you through anything that you cannot handle. In 2015 she endured a Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). During her day job while playing outside with kids, she slipped on the concrete and ran head first into a brick wall. she suppose that her training as an Amateur Boxer helped her to absorb some of the impact and shock for taking such a blow to her head. After the accident laying on the CAT scan table, all alone, in the ER, she feared that her skull was cracked. she wasn't sure if she was going to survive the accident.But apparently after answering the following questions correctly: “Who is the president of the USA? And how many quarters does it take to make $1.50?”….. you will get cleared and sent home after a TBI from the ER. Shortly after her head injury her health began to deteriorate. Headaches. Fatigue. Depression. Anxiety. Nausea. Bloating. Food intolerances. Weight gain. I mean constant unexplained weight gain. Her diet hadn't changed. She had returned to the gym. Yet every time she stepped on the scale my weight kept going up and up. She was literally dysfunctional and she saw no end in sight. It was the lowest that she had ever felt in my life.The conventional medicine system told her that she was fine. She saw a million doctors and specialists. All her labs came back normal. It was just stress they said. Everyone tried to jam pills down my throat. Pills for anxiety. Pills for depression. She refused to take pills. And I refused to accept that everything was fine. She continued to search and eventually She found answers. It took her years but she was determined and relentless. A TBI is a root cause for a GI dysfunction called SIBO, which stands for Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth. So She walked into the world of Functional Medicine and Holistic Health. She got certifications and trained with the top SIBO Doctors in the world and now here She is. She is here to educate and guide others, here to help people that are having severe, debilitating digestive issues, here to help people that have been dismissed by conventional medicine. Thru her education and experience she is here to help people get their life back.please connect with this episode guest:Rebalance Your RoutineIG: @jessicaliggeroIf you want to connect and know more about me and my podcast: Leap of Healthyou can find me at :www.alexbalgood.comFacebook @AlxBalgood and @leapofhealthwithalexbalgoodInstagram @AlexbalgoodYoutube @AlexBalgoodBuy on Amazon Book: Parents, Our Greatest Teachers by Alex Balgood available on paper bag & kindle version and Barnes and Noble Books#alexbalgood, #alwaysmoving, #author, #creatingwealth, #gutbrain, #healer, #leapofhealthpodcast #healthyli, #livingmybestlife #quantumhealing ,#loveart, #artiseverything, #artheals #nutrition, #nutritioncoach #massagetherapy, #airquality, #soundhealing, #healingslowly, #functionalmedicine, #fertility, #sunlighttherapy, #Circadianrhythm,
Could the root cause of Parkinson's disease be hiding in your gut? In this Longevity Podcast episode, I am joined by Martha Carlin, founder of The BioCollective and BiotiQuest, to explore the role of lipopolysaccharides (LPS) – cellular debris from harmful bacteria – in Parkinson's disease and other chronic conditions. We dive into the importance of the microbiome in overall health, the connection between constipation and Parkinson's, and the potential impact of probiotics in mitigating LPS-related issues. We also explore the benefits of cold showers, cold plunges, and cryotherapy in signaling microbes and the potential of AI in accelerating learning and understanding the complexities of the microbiome. Martha Carlin, a former business turnaround expert turned citizen scientist, has emerged as a pioneering force in microbiome research and Parkinson's disease studies since her husband's diagnosis in 2002. After teaching herself chemistry, physics, biochemistry, and microbiology, she founded The BioCollective in 2015, creating one of the world's first fecal banks to accelerate microbiome research, and later developed BiotiQuest, a line of innovative probiotics. Her groundbreaking work has led to collaborations across multiple scientific disciplines and speaking engagements at prestigious venues, including The White House 2016 Microbiome Initiative.

After having her third baby, Krystyna Houser started experiencing bloating, rashes, and brain fog. She sought treatment only to be told her symptoms were postpartum-related. After refusing to accept those answers, she was eventually diagnosed with SIBO, Small Intestine Bacterial Overgrowth. Krystyna thought a diagnosis meant a simple solution, however, she came to realize that the path to healing was more complex. In her journey to become SIBO-free, Krystyna sought out the top doctors and experts in the field of gastroenterology to find the right combination of lifestyle, medicine, protocols, and diets; she was told to follow a strict 2-week "elemental diet". After experiencing feelings of frustration due to the poor taste of other elemental diet products, Krystyna teamed up with doctors from Cedars-Sinai to create mBIOTA Labs, which develops scientifically formulated products for the unique dietary needs of patients grappling with various GI challenges. Krystyna has also created the Good LFE (Low-Fermentation Eating) Cookbook, full of recipes from appetizers to dessert to aid in healing your gut. Learn more about your ad choices.

Ever wonder what insights could be gained from small intestine bacterial overgrowth testing when you've got IBS gut symptoms?Last week, Dr. Ken Brown and I discussed various reasons why Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is a problematic diagnosis that has become a “catch-all” for any digestive symptoms. We also spoke about how SIBO inflammation can spread to other body systems including skin rashes like rosacea.In today's episode, we will dive into the reason why small bacterial overgrowth testing should be run by gastroenterologists. AND how it can lead to clarity on the type of SIBO you're struggling with (and may explain your constipation or diarrhea). Plus, SIBO constipation can lead to unwanted side effects that, unfortunately, worsen long-term constipation!And if you are struggling with SIBO symptoms and want to know how to get better, we'll also dive into conventional and natural SIBO treatment options.My friend and SIBO expert Dr. Ken Brown is back for Part 2 of this interview! He's a board-certified gastroenterologist and has been in practice for over 15 years with a clinical focus on inflammatory bowel disease and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Known as the host of the podcast “Gut Check Project”, Dr. Brown's mission is to bridge the gap between medical & natural science, leading to attainable improvements in quality of life for all.For over a decade, he conducted clinical research for various pharma companies but is now focused on natural solution product development for KBMD Health and KBS Research.

This is a 2-part interview coming next week so stay tuned!Did you know that many people diagnosed with IBS actually have SIBO (small intestine bacterial overgrowth)?SIBO is unfortunately a rather under-diagnosed condition impacting your gut that often leads people to struggle for very long periods (sometimes several years!) without a clear answer of what's going on beyond just being told “you have IBS.”To be clear, digestive issues like bloating and diarrhea are not normal and can make you miserable. And being told that irritable bowel syndrome explains everything away isn't really all that helpful especially if you experience severe bloating, diarrhea, constipation, and/or gas – all of which can wreck your life and create food fear (as you try to avoid whatever triggers an issue).While small intestine bacterial overgrowth is slowly but surely becoming more accepted amongst doctors, we're still learning more about the different triggers of SIBO symptoms and how it can impact other body systems like your skin (especially for those dealing with rosacea).My friend and SIBO expert Dr. Ken Brown joins me today! He's a board-certified gastroenterologist and has been in practice for over 15 years with a clinical focus on inflammatory bowel disease and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).

And when people come to me, they're like, well, I'm told I have IBS. I'm like, IBS, in my mind, should be viewed as the warning sign. And the most common symptom is bloating. So what I tell my patients is the bloating you're experiencing, although you think it's normal, because it's been normalized either by you accepting it or a doctor saying, it's perfectly fine, you have to live with it, that's the warning sign that you have gut inflammation.”“The skin is the outward manifestation. The skin is another warning sign, including acne, eczema, rosacea, psoriasis. All of these things can actually start in the gut, and the skin is trying to say, hey, it's not right, something is wrong. And I do see a lot of people with skin issues. And I have treated a lot of people that have seen dermatologists, and we fix their gut and it gets better.”LinksFind Dr. Ken Brown Podcast | Instagram | TiktokGET ATRANTIL HERE!!TRY DR.

She is the creator of SIBO SOS®, the Digestion SOS™documentary series, the Gut & Microbiome Rescue Summit, and the Lymphatic Rescue Summit. 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! Millions of Americans suffer from bloating, constipation, diarrhea, food intolerances, and other gastrointestinal symptoms. Many spend years in pain before they figure out just what's going on with their gut. And while irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is commonly diagnosed, SIBO, a disorder with basically all the same symptoms, is not. Some studies show eighty percent of people who suffer from IBS, mostly women, likely also have SIBO, an overlooked health issue that is difficult to diagnose. So, what is SIBO? The acronym stands for Small Intestine Bacterial Overgrowth, a disorder in which bacteria that usually live in other parts of the gut start to proliferate and take up residence in the small intestine. This causes a whole confluence of symptoms, ranging from bloating and cramps, to uncontrollable weight gain or weight loss, to even malnutrition when the bacteria eat up vital nutrients from our food. Now, in this groundbreaking book, Shivan shares her step-by-step plan to treat, manage, and even heal SIBO, with information on what to eat and what to avoid, how to build a routine to manage your symptoms, and how to work with your doctor to find supplements and medications that promote healing. Shivan also includes a 21-day plan, which includes more than 40 recipes to put you on the path to recovery. Whether you're SIBO-diagnosed or SIBO-suspicious, this empowering guide will change the way you approach and think about your gut and overall health.

In this episode, I am joined by Dr. Melanie Keller, ND, a renowned expert in the treatment of IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) and SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth), to explore the autoimmune components of these conditions and discuss groundbreaking treatment methods.Understanding IBS and SIBOWhat is SIBO? Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth occurs when there is an excessive amount of bacteria in the small intestine, disrupting nutrient absorption and causing various symptoms.Symptoms and Forms of SIBO: Includes bloating, abdominal pain, constipation, diarrhea, and gas. Different gases produced in SIBO (hydrogen, methane, and hydrogen sulfide) lead to different symptom profiles.Dr. Keller's Journey to Functional MedicineInspired by her own health struggles and a passion for natural living, Dr. Keller's journey into naturopathic medicine led her to specialize in SIBO and IBS, becoming a pioneer in the field.Treatment ApproachesDr. Keller emphasizes the importance of individualized treatment plans, addressing the root causes of SIBO and IBS rather than just the symptoms.Key Components of Treatment: Avoiding common triggers like low stomach acid treatments and probiotics, focusing on diet adjustments, and considering the unique needs of each patient.The Role of Intuition and Energy in HealingBoth the practitioner's and the patient's intuition play crucial roles in the healing journey, guiding treatment choices and adjustments.Energy work and understanding the energy of water and food can also contribute to healing, highlighting the interconnectedness of physical and energetic health.For the complete show notes and links visit inspiredliving.show/129
