At 60 years old I have struggled with digestive issues for years. And yes, I traveled extensively for work and had two serious bouts of food poisoning from Turkey and Italy. Last year I had my appendix removed and for the first time in years I have relief from my symptoms. Is there any research on if, in some people, the appendix is a reserve of bad bacteria, probably e coli?
Just finished 14 days Xifaxan… still having problems with IBSD. But it has only been a couple of days. How do you get to be a candidate for trials? I’m sure like SO many… I just want to feel normal and live life again. 😢
Hey there! We hear you. It can be really tough dealing with IBS-D. Give it a little more time to see if things improve. To learn more about clinical trials, it’s often best to consult with your doctor, who can guide you through the process. Wishing you all the best on your journey to feeling better!
Great question! Typically, a successful Phase 2b trial would lead to a Phase 3 trial to gather more data on safety and efficacy before a drug can be approved for market. However, there are exceptions, and regulatory processes can vary.
That’s an interesting observation. Methane levels can sometimes rise if methanogens thrive in the absence of competition. It’s always best to consult with your practitioner for personalized insights into your test results and next steps. Hope that helps! 💡
Great question! Long-term results of the elemental diet can vary. Follow-up testing is after finishing the diet to see how effective it was. You may see get more info from the SIBO SOS Ultimate Testing Guide 👉 sibosos.com/testing-guide

@@SIBOSOS It is super important to know if it only last the duration of the diet and if it just helps to manage the symptoms or if it really helps long term. I tried to find the information on the research of Dr Pimentel and could not find it. What did you find by reading the various researches on the subject?
I’m 67. Have been fighting SIBO for many years. I had food poisoning in my early 20’s bad case. Then ibs ever since. Did sibo breath test about 6 years ago. Positive did the diet and antibiotics. Felt good at first then not. I had a horrible hip infection on my new hip 2 years ago and now I’m HURTING SO BAD!! The pain is aweful! The naturalpathic that helped me before had t been able to touch this pain. I did endoscopy and have H.Pylori which this strain from bad water, food or infection. Put me on 3 antibiotics for 14 days. My gut is so messed up now. I need help so bad. I hope you guys have some answers soon I’ll do a study for you I’m a good candidate! 😮
Hi Sorry to bother you. I'm in my 20s and my gut messed up since an year ago, after eat uncooked meat. So your gut didn't got any better after 40years??I was hopping time heals something but that's terryfying
I'm so sorry to hear about the challenges you’ve been facing. It sounds incredibly tough. While I can't offer medical advice, we encourage you to keep working closely with your healthcare provider to explore all possible options. Thank you for your willingness to participate in studies; your experience could help many others. Wishing you strength and relief on your journey.
Thank you so much for publicly posting this valuable information and research. My question is why isn’t our allopathic medicine on board or even informed about this?
Thanks for all the info. I’ve seen many times Pimental say that food poisoning does not cause methane. So what does it mean if you got IMO after food poisoning and have anti Cdtb antibodies?
@@SIBOSOSI did hear him mention that if you are methane positive then don’t bother testing for anti cdtb or vinculin. If you don’t have the antibodies and are methane positive does it mean your MMC is slowed by some other cause?
If methanogens cause slow motility by causing the gut to spasm would it be smart to use an antispasmodic agent , a prokenetic agent or perhaps a combination of both
Fantastic information and thank you for your tireless efforts for those of us struggling with GI issues. What do identify as food poisoning? Is it the same as the "Travelers diarrhea" so common in Mexico? What about C-diff which is where all my problems began after a sinus infection. Is it the food poisoning that causes the nausea vomiting diarrhea syndrome. What qualifies?
Hi there! Thanks for your support! Food poisoning can include "Traveler's diarrhea" from contaminated food or water and infections like C-diff, which can cause GI symptoms. For specific advice, it's best to consult a healthcare provider. We're glad you're part of our community!
@@SIBOSOS Thank you. You all kept mentioning food poisoning and that was my question. What are you identifying as "food poisoning" as there are all kinds of GI bugs out that create different GI disturbances. What qualifies as "food poisoning"?
Thanks so much for sharing! Dr. Pimentel’s research is a beacon of hope for many struggling with IBS-C and similar symptoms. We appreciate your openness-hang in there, and keep following along for more insights and updates!
Hey there! That's a great question. It's important to note that IBS-D can sometimes lead to weight loss, but it's not always the case. It's possible that the discomfort and changes in digestion associated with IBS-D might make it harder to eat regularly or absorb nutrients fully. If you're experiencing unexplained weight loss along with IBS-D symptoms, it's always best to talk to your doctor. They can help determine the cause and recommend the best course of action.
Arabic Gum to protect the epithelium lining ?plus perfluorooctane sulfonate and chlorinated tap water could these things affect the bowel /so he does not drink water why just coffee.
Those are interesting points! While I'm not able to provide specific answers, I encourage you to explore these topics further with your doctor. It's always important to understand how different substances might impact gut health. Thank you for sharing your thoughts!
I have a hard time taking "researchers" like Simren and Vanner seriously. These guys either have huge ego problems or some conflict of interest otherwise they would not be on such a crusade for years. PS: Shivan, have you thought about inviting Diane O'Leary as a guest for your podcast? She's a researcher and expert in the philosophy of medicine, philosophy of mind and bioethics. She's a very vocal critic of the biopsychosocial model and psychosomatic medicine so her insights about the history of "DGBIs" might be quite valuable for a lot of your viewers. She's active on twitter/x and has also written 2 books.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts! We appreciate your perspective and understand that different experts can evoke different reactions. Shivan is always open to exploring new voices and ideas, so we’ll look into Diane O'Leary as a potential guest. Her expertise sounds intriguing and could offer valuable insights for our community. Thanks again for the suggestion!
Having IBS C n D after being constipatd after 3 days and so i take cleansing.. i used to move everyday AM... then i have lbm 6 to 7x i took electrolytes... its a cycle with pain.. cant just eat anthing.. digestion motility is bad had snxiety and insomia because of this.. They said its.because of vaccines.. nobody research about the effects..
We understand how tough IBS C and D can be. It's important to consult a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment. Managing symptoms often involves diet, lifestyle changes, and stress management. We hope you find relief soon.
I am not through the whole video, but do you really claim that elemental diet is better than carnivore? Or is it because you sell elemental diet? I mean, elemental diet is awfully expensive and as far as I understand it's kind of a cocktail made of food which excludes everything that can feed the bad bacteria. So you starve it. Why just not simply eliminate carbs, including sugar, and make a lion diet? Because it's fixes the gut, the health, it's tasty and definitely cheaper. And the food is whole foods and it's natural. The thing is, as soon as you start eating all your normal food again, SIBO will return, for sure. If you change your diet for good, I mean, for a diet with zero or almost zero carbs, you have much more chances to stay SIBO free. And have your bloating fixed. And achieve your weight goals. Excluding people who can't digest animal fat and protein due to some disorders like with enzymes.
Thanks for your comment! We appreciate your insights on the elemental and carnivore diets. Everyone's journey is unique, and we aim to share various approaches based on expert research.

They did find some new discoveries about the importance of the appendix and the microbiome recently. Maybe it is in pubmed.

If the phase 2b trial is successful is it possible that the drug reach the market directly or does it have to go to phase 3?
Great question! Typically, a successful Phase 2b trial would lead to a Phase 3 trial to gather more data on safety and efficacy before a drug can be approved for market. However, there are exceptions, and regulatory processes can vary.
What does it mean if after a 2-week elementary diet the test shows lower hydrogen but much higher methane than it was before the treatment?
That’s an interesting observation. Methane levels can sometimes rise if methanogens thrive in the absence of competition. It’s always best to consult with your practitioner for personalized insights into your test results and next steps. Hope that helps! 💡

Thanks for all the info. I’ve seen many times Pimental say that food poisoning does not cause methane. So what does it mean if you got IMO after food poisoning and have anti Cdtb antibodies?
I haven't heard him say that exactly. It is a MMC issue and the higher antibodies do impact the MMC

A prokinetic to support the MMC is the suggested step to help prevent relapse etc. Great thought!
