Hi, I was diagnosed with SIBO and IBS this year and I want to share my story and hear yours.
I took Xifaxan treatment, Herbal Treatments but it didn't work at all. My symptom is Excessive Flatulence, I use to work in meetings, closed spaces with people and it has been I little bit difficult to deal with it. It is an unconformable condition to deal but it is something we can control a bit.
What I have found?
I was taking HCL supplement to enhance my digestion for a couple of months but actually I was making my symptoms worse.
I found that no matter what I ate my symptoms were there, once I got rid of HCL my symptoms were improving a bit. After a little talk with a Naturopath I found that I might have Hydrogen Sulfide SIBO or a sulfur issue, doing some of a research I found that following a low sulfur diet my symptoms improved.
Supplements that I am taking:
-EPSON Salts baths, Molybdenum (Biotics), Bio-HPF (Biotics), Butyric-Cal-Mag (Biotics), Calcium D-Glucarate, Hydroxocobalamin, Korean Red Panax Ginseng and Trace Minerals.
This is my first week taking them and it seems to help, I will give you an update after a few weeks.
Also I found that the hydrogen sulfide producing bacteria generate gas using Bile acids, so when we eat high fat meats or we are under an stress situation we produce more bile acid and for that reason more gas is produced by these hydrogen sulfide producing bacteria.
So the supplements are working as binders and stabilizers of hydrogen sulfide production and the Sulfide to Sulfate conversion as well.
So in addition, I will be taking a Probiotic only with Lactobacillus Plantarum that has been shown good results in reducing hydrogen sulfide producing bacteria.
I hope this works for you, I am not 100% cured but I think this help and it is a step forward. I will give you an update after a few weeks. See you soon.
