Wish I had a doctor like you in my life. You're the only hope we have, please continue your search.

He deserves a Nobel Prize ❤

Thank you GOD for this amazing man trying to help us from misery with all his research. Most of doctors don't care about all of the symptoms we go thu. I'm bloated 24/7, diagnosed with ibs but now I think I have methane sibo.

I ve lived with IBS constipation for 25 years, I recently tested positive for Sibo, both methane and hydrogen. My Doctor didn't know what SIBO was and refused to give me Rifaximin and Neomycin. He also told me there no test for IBS. He was happy to give costly colonoscopy test which came back normal!!!! When will the rest of the World catch up? When will our Doctors get training. So, so grateful for your work xx

This is my Dr. He’s the reason I’m still here. 💯

Dear KZfaq, Why I found this channel after so many years. Its a ray of hope. Its the first channel for which I have presses bell icon.

This man gets it. He understands the day to day suffering of microbiome distress!! So grateful I found him+ so grateful for his hard work in this area ❤️⚡💪❤️😍

thank you Dr. Pimentel. I have more clarity now on dibo, Simon, imo and particularly the efficacy of prucalopride. I have been using this prokinetic agents and really helps my gut motility. I look forward to more of your q and a, webinars, podcasts etc on KZfaq. please keep sharing your wisdom with the world. many thanks, Reimara

Thank you. Getting your new book. We really need this research it is the cusp of so many autoimmune conditions. ❤️

Brilliant! Thank you so much for you research!A new universe is opening when I heard about the antibodys! 🙏🙏🙏

Thank you . I am learning a lot my IBD. I have inflammation in my gut. But luckily no symptoms. Except the small amount of blood a few times a year. Hopefulll I won’t be worse over the years. I am 55 years of age

if we can't take any probiotics, how do we repopulate the gut properly after antibiotics?

Hey there, great video! really well articulated and Marks attitude shines of hope and determination. May I ask when the next Q&A video may be? Any chance of doing an AMA (ask me anything) on the SIBO subreddit? this would be profound and I imagine, through Reddits upvote system, would distill down some very important questions. Cheers!

Great! Thank you so much!

Dr we APPRECIATE your work! We must find the link between imo,pcos,estrogen dominance,herpes simplex,hashimoto’s, and lower heart rate (except when I take ginger!) I wish I understood why that happens! I take it for constipation and sometimes it works and sometimes not. I’d like to know why? I have all of these symptoms and am finding out that many others with imo do as well. Any info on this? I have found little. Since imo is genetic maybe the missing link is in those who were bottle fed vs breast fed?

Great information, thanks for sharing 👍🏻

I have battled methane and hydrogen SIBO for yrs with chronic constipation. I have to treat myself with herbals bc most drs have no clue about SIBO or treating it. My dr gave me rifaximin only bc I told him I tested positive at home but I didn’t take it bc I didn’t feel it would be enough to treat. If we treat with RX drugs, won’t SIBO come back bc we have no idea how we all got into this mess in the 1st place? Is it dairy, wheat, grains, gmo? Who knows. I feel like I’m in a losing battle here, it’s so sad

If you don’t travel outside of the country, but you still get food poisoning more than a normal person, how do you take steps to prevent yourself from getting food poisoning? I only got food poisoning once from eating out once, total five times. My first time I was late 40s seems after that I was prone to nausea and getting it again.

Thanks!

So are things like Kefir and Kombucha, no-no's?

I'm struggling with high anti-vinculin antibodies but I don't have SIBO, I have post infectious IBS. I'm going to try Xifaxan. I'll report back!

Dear Doc, Can fasting give relief from SIBO ?

Sibo & chronic gastritis diet the same?

What’s the percentage that Rifaxami work on

Can Bactrim treat SIBO?

Can sibo lead to Crohn's diseases

I do like Pimentel but his research is going too slow due to funding from our institutions. Also China and Japan researchers already have most of these findings and have for years. They are way ahead of us in microbiome research and have cures for most of these issues. Pimentel' team should seek public funding from the american public, many researchers do this, and conduct studies simultaneously based on various theories to flush out what will work and get real solutions to suffering public. These studies are taking way too long and costing people suffering too much money. Time to be resourceful.
