The research on probiotics for SIBO is clear, yet people continue to hear the message that probiotics should be avoided by those with SIBO.
So let's confirm what recent research really says. Join me.

Thank you for watching! Is there anything else you’d like to know about gut health?

Any data on probiotics being helpful for methane/constipation dominant SIBO?

@poojathaker8764 Жыл бұрын

Do you recommend Sb in someone who suspects they have SIBO that tends towards constipation? Is a stool test required before starting a probiotic for SIBO?

I'd love to know about long-term safety of magnesium citrate supplements (not the high-dose laxative) on gut health.

I have sibo that causes constipation so I guess that is hydrogen dominant? It’s also causing me gut related anxiety and insomnia on some nights

I have what my doctor called ‘large’ SIBO (both methane and hydrogen) and I’m struggling for years. Constantly constipated, low energy, mood swings etc.Tried diets and all kinds of supplements costing me a fortune. Three months ago I started with a big cup of kefir on an empty stomach daily. And this has made the biggest and most positive change in years. Adding this video to that makes a lot of sense and gives me the courage to further investigate pre-pro-postbiotics cause I heavily feel therein lies my answer.

$5 Aloe vera drink from Walmart has been a lifesaver for us as well! Just throwing it out there for anyone who can't/won't drink kefir....my seven year old being one of them! 😄 Aloe vera drink soothes the gut from beginning to end and has even stopped malabsorption in my daughter, so it's literally been a lifesaver. I'm so glad that you're feeling better! ❤️

This research only shows benefits for S. Boulardii, a very specific probiotic yeast. You therefore cannot generalize to ‘all probiotics are beneficial/safe for SIBO’. Many patients suffering from SIBO experience worsening of symptoms after taking multistrain probiotics consisting of bacterial species. This is likely very specific to the strains used as well as to the moment of time during treatment when it is implemented.

In this short video I only touch on S. boulardii but I have another video about this: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pZuVrKxpx7HUfJs.html which touches on lactobacillus. I also have an article about probiotics for SIBO, so I suggest you check that out for more context: drruscio.com/sibo-probiotics/ Let me know what you think!

@@DrRuscioDC Oh I completely agree that certain probiotics could be beneficial for treatment if used at the right time, but I do think the use of probiotics should be approached carefully considering so many people experience negative reactions when taking them, scaring them off from using them

@ConsiderItHealth Жыл бұрын

I agree with caution with generalization. SIBO itself is not one entity. As we know, there methane, sulfide, Hydrogen versions of SIBO, and based on this one study alone, I would guess it may be more effective for the hydrogen version (since they studied IBS-D)?

@@brianlittrell797 Hi, I guess that I should've remembered that post and erased it because we ended up having to stop that probiotic. It became too much for her system. I've since learned that S. Boullardi is the best probiotic for stomach issues because it's easily tolerated by people with any kind of stomach issues. I also started her on aloe vera drink and that's been a HUGE improvement. Her stools went from greasy and undigested to formed with no visible food pieces! It soothes the gut all the way through, so no matter what the issue, it will help. It's about $5 at Walmart and it literally has been a lifesaver for my child. She was losing a lot of weight with the malabsorption. She's feeling so much better and I was even able to let her eat greasy New York style pizza at a sleepover. She didn't even have indigestion which is a miracle for us! I'm telling you, $5 is worth it to try. I wish we would've known about it sooner. I hope you heal soon. ❤️

If you have never taken probiotics before, you may want to start with a much smaller cfu count. I started at 5 billion and then 25, then 40 now. They will really work to straighten out your gut bacteria, but the adjustment can be slightly uncomfortable. That's why it's always best to start slow, in my opinion. ❤️
