SIBO or small intestinal bacterial overgrowth, is a condition that marks an abundance of bad bacteria in the small intestine causing bloating, digestive distress besides malabsorption of nutrients.
SIBO or small intestinal bacterial overgrowth, is a condition that marks an abundance of bad bacteria in the small intestine causing bloating, digestive distress besides malabsorption of nutrients.
The small intestine is the site of absorption for most of our dietary nutrients which is why microbes are contained to the large intestine in order to not compete with us for nutrients.
So, the most common symptoms of SIBO are extremely fatigue and feeling bloated all the time

besides abdominal pain, nausea and so on.
That being said, diagnosis of SIBO involves a simple breath test that can be done at home so if you think that you might experience SIBO, do the test and don't just wing it trying to self diagnose.

In general, even things such as bloating and constipation, signal that pathogens compete with us for nutrients and it's a sign that
a person needs to prioritize his gut health.
So let's see what we can do in order to treat these conditions and start with some general gut health guidelines.
First, in order to optimize gut health eliminate the following:
-NSAIDs
-Alcohol
-Gluten
-Soy products
-Tap water

Then, stop consuming coffe on an empty stomach.
What in God's name are these people doing?
Do they actually think that signaling a huge production of stomach acid on an empty stomach is a good idea?
So no "fasted" coffee if you want a healthy gut.

Get rid of inferior fats (cod liver oil included).
The environment in the gut is meant to be anaerobic.
This means that easily oxidized fats such as canola, soy, sunflower oil and fish oils, cause serious gut issues and also metabolic disease.

Last but not least, if you are a woman, get off birth control pills as well since they usually lead yeast overgrowth.
Then, make sure to provide the necessary nutrients that sustain a healthy gut environment.
These are:
1)Vitamin K and vitamin A (retinol)
2)B vitamins and zinc
3)Magnesium
4)Beta cryptoxanthin

The most important nutrient to stop the oxygenation of the gut environment is vitamin K which is a fatsoluble vitamin, so make sure to consume enough saturated fats as well.
Vitamin K2 is also a factor which influences stomach acid production,
so the gut absolutely cannot be restored without generous and regular consumption of dietary vitamin K.
Vitamin A is also needed to address the presence of oxygen in the gut.
Vitamin A is also needed to address the presence of oxygen in the gut.
2) B vitamins and zinc
When it comes to B vitamins and zinc, they are used up by the stomach cells to produce HCL.
Zinc is a mineral so crucial for our gut health that when we consume too little of it the intestinal barrier literally falls apart.

3) Magnesium
Magnesium plays a critical role in more than 300 enzymatic processes in the body.
These processes include several that help to break down food that enters the body at various points during digestion.

Where can you find all of the above nutrients?
1)Beef liver
2)Beef kidney
3)Oysters
4)Egg yolks
5)Chicken liver
6)Squash
7)Pumpkin
No raw butter, cheese and so on?
Yeap. Zero for 4 weeks.

Histamine and bacteria overgrowth
Most approaches when it comes to addressing bacteria overgrowth fail for a variety of reasons but one very common is that they do not address histamine and mast cells.

Most approaches when it comes to addressing bacteria overgrowth fail for a variety of reasons but one very common is that they do not address histamine and mast cells.
Histamine is a molecule produced in our bodies by decarboxylation of the
amino acid histidine.
It is distributed throughout all tissues but it is particularly concentrated in the skin, lungs and GI tract.

It is distributed throughout all tissues but it is particularly concentrated in the skin, lungs and GI tract.
Histamine is generated and stored within granules in mast cells (*) located within the tissues basophils and eosinophils circulating in the blood
and enterochromaffin-like cells located in the stomach lining.
(*)A mast cell is a type of white blood cell and is found in connective tissues throughout your body. Mast cells help your immune system function properly and normally help protect us from disease.
(*)A mast cell is a type of white blood cell and is found in connective tissues throughout your body. Mast cells help your immune system function properly and normally help protect us from disease.
Mast cells are key components in the inflammatory response as they can be activated to release a wide variety of inflammatory mediators, by many different antigens including allergens, pathogens and physiological mediators.
Histamine intolerance is a condition in which your body cannot degrade high amounts of histamine due to inadequate levels of enzymes called diamine oxidase.
But why do we care about histamines when it comes to gut health?
It’s because bacteria produce histamines.
But why do we care about histamines when it comes to gut health?
It’s because bacteria produce histamines.
Bacteria are able to synthesize and secrete histamine so if you increase the histamine responses through diet and lifestyle, you will be feeding these bacteria without even knowing it.
So the a critical step in healing SIBO and candida is to minimize the histamine response.
So the a critical step in healing SIBO and candida is to minimize the histamine response.
Here’s how we are going to do this.
Step 1: Avoid all of the following foods for 4-12 weeks
1) No kefir
2) No cheeses (especially parmesan)
3) No canned foods
4) No chocolate
5) No soy
6) No nuts
7) No mustard
8) No tomatoes
9) No cured meats
10) No dried fruit

Step 2: Also avoid histamine liberators(*) such as cabbage and too much stress.
(*)Histamine liberators are things that trigger the release of the body's existing histamine.
Do your best to minimize stress since the more cortisol you have, the more histamine reaction you have.

Note: This is (partly) why antihistamines make a lot of people sleepy and make them sleep a lot. It’s because they were running on cortisol and adrenaline.
Step 3: Only eat freshly cooked meals.
When foods sit, the bacteria break down histidine into histamine.

Step 5: Add mast cell inhibitors
The best natural solutions are :
1)Quercetin
Quercetin inhibits the mast cells and stabilizes cortisol.
Quercetin is fat soluble so you’ll need to consume it with a fatty meal in order to increase the absorption.

N,N,N′,N′-tetrakis(2-pyridylmethyl)ethylenediamine (TPEN) inhibits the release of histamine, the production of cytokines, and the secretion of lipid mediators in mast cells but stick to oysters and not zinc supplements.
2)Black cumin seed oil
Black cumin seed oil has great antihistamine effects and is one of the most studied natural remedies that has been utilized for its medicinal properties for over two thousand years.

Then a common cause for gut issues in general but also bacterial overgrowth in specific, is unbound iron.
Unbound iron does not only feed very effectively pathogenic species but it also kills beneficial ones.
Some pathogenic species can only feed on iron.

Some pathogenic species can only feed on iron.
But isn’t iron good for our health?
The problem is not iron itself but when it's present in its free form because due to its ability to participate in redox reactions, iron is a catalyst for the formation of hydroxyl radicals from reduced forms of O2.

This means that unbound iron causes oxidative damage to our gut and very effectively feeds pathogens since opportunistic microbes require oxygen to begin with.
Unbound iron is way more harmful for gut health than even gluten is for a lot of people.

It’s not uncommon for people to categorize themselves as gluten intolerant when in reality they just react to the inorganic iron that’s added in 99.9% of modern flours.
So what can you do about this?
Basically make sure that you get enough thiamine, vitamin E and B-carotene.

Activated charcoal and milk thistle can surprisingly help you also.
Short term thiamine supplementation (with some fruit) can also greatly help since thiamine stimulates the oxidation of
carbohydrate for energy which results in the production of CO2 which in turn binds and detoxifies ammonia.
Zinc and C02 also become depleted by high levels of ammonia so always keep fruit and oysters in your diet.
B3 supplementation (make sure that you have enough B2) is also a

Specific tips for candida
You should absolutely eliminate grains, PUFAs, sugar, fermented foods and all dairy products.
Keep the protein high, the fats medium/high and the carbs medium for a few weeks.

After you’ve implemented what we’ve discussed so far, you can also greatly benefit from taking apple pectin every once in a while (2-3 days per week).
After you’ve implemented what we’ve discussed so far, you can also greatly benefit from taking apple pectin every once in a while (2-3 days per week).
Since apple pectin cannot be metabolized into lactic acid, it is a very effective tool to promote metabolic health in general and it also helps the absorption of magnesium and lower excess histamine.
That's it.
Implement these for 4-8 weeks and your condition should improve.
Will it get resolved?
No, a thread can not optimize your health.
