Kania, I heard doctors that treat SIBO say that herbs alone and diet will not heal SIBO. Although they are Integrative medical doctors, like Dr. Pimentel and Siebecker, ND (Portland, Oregon), they recommend specific antibiotics for difficult SIBO along with specific diet after the bacteria has been eradicated.
But I am sure that MMS1 and MMS2 help alot. That is what I am trying now hoping my breath test will be normal. I have all the symptoms of SIBO and several health conditions that cause it, like pancreatic malfunction, hypothyroid, auto immune condition, and lack of stomach acid.
What calms down Sibo for me is the low FODMAPS diet and the Specifi Carbohydrate diet.NO gluten, sugar, no onions, garlic, no flours, no beans and only lactose free dairy in very limited amounts., etc..There is a lot of information online.
With this diet of mainly animal protein, eggs, specific veggies, some fruit, some nuts and few starches, good fats like coconut oil, macadamia, olive oil, I don't have any bloating, pain or gas in the stomach/intestines. IBS and SIBO are usually together. All experts on these, say to be gluten-free or the damage continues.
