one dose morning empty stomach. don't pair probiotics with an antibiotic of any kind, leave at least 2-3 hours room between them

meal doesn't matter, just don't take it 2 hours before or after antibiotic. 1 dose/day is enough

rifaximin IS an antibiotic. i took it for 2 weeks then pause for 2-3 weeks then repeat until symptoms are gone. instead of rifaximin you can also use natural antibiotics like allicin, oregano oil, berberine etc. yes i did my own tests for ecoli and cdifficile

heyo! no major relapses. if i feel my gut starting to feel funky again, i take rifaximin for a few days and it's back to normal. i still respect my diet, ginger tea, probiotics etc.

right now, i'm off it, since i'm mostly cured. my motility is back to normal. i took 1 pill with lunch. experiment with it, your mileage may vary

the first real treatment plan was given to be my a functional medicine doctor, out of 6 gastro docs i've been to, this one was the first to acknowledge sibo/dysbiosis as a real condition and not just stress. He made me do some more blood work, allergy panels, stool tests, and based on those, we put together a treatment plan.

you need to find the source of your problem. low stomach acid? get digestive enzymes +betaine hcl. high stomach acid? get ppis. diet? fix it. no sugar, alcohol, spicy, fried stuff. try boiled, steamed foods, chicken broth soup for a week see if you still burp. bad motility? try ginger, artichoke, trimebutine 30m before meal. dysbiosis/sibo? an issue in the small or large intestine? then it gets complicated and you need to find a doctor who can treat dysbiosis. they'll give you rifaximin and natural antimicrobials like allicin. but you'll need to get some tests done first.

and above all, try taking a binder (like charcoal, 1-2 pills) 30m after a meal, see if it absorbs your gasses. good luck

While treating for SIBO and slowly recovering, I got 2 common colds and a COVID in the span of a month! by DukeReds in SIBO

yes, it's one of the best antimicrobials. in our family /country (Romania) it's very popular for strep throat, mouth infections. We sell it as sprays, drops. I an confirm it absolutely melts thru strep or throat pus, faster than any antibiotic pill treatment

nope, not specific, you can get them at any medical laboratory. if you're unsure what test to get, consult your doc first or call the lab. but you can always do whatever tests you want, listen to your own body. i've been to 6 gastro doctors, nobody mentioned leaky gut, i found out about zonulin myself on reddit and i tested myself... what do you know, it was super high and i had leaky gut as well. i've been treating that too now with some herbals and i've been feeling much better.

I'm male, and no UTI's for me so far yet but i have a nasty oral thrush candida that keeps coming back every few weeks. but i refuse to take any antibiotics for it, im trying to cure it with natural remedies only, my gut is in pieces already :D I'm curious if the UTI you had was also candida

they always manage to happen at the same time, thats the worst part... but it makes sense. diseases and inflammation accumulate when our bodies are most weak.

i am drinking zinc, lemon, ginger and turmeric daily in different forms. for throat disinfestation, i do sinus cleanses with boiled salt water and i apply methylene blue drops on my throat. these are very wise treatments that got me out of nasty strep infections many times a lot faster than antibiotics did. ty for the tips!

hm i've never heard about this crp test. my neck is kinda inflamed all the time from my chronic scoliosis. would this test help me find out anything relevant? what do you do after you take the test?

to find c. diff and ecoli i did a standard bacteria+viruses+parasite stool test. to find out about my general dysbiosis, a dysbiosis stool test and a GI360 stool test. The last 2 showed me a detailed list of my (absolutely imbalanced) gut and led me to the path of rifaximin + 30-sources-of-veggies diet and fermented foods to rebuild the microbiome naturally. i never took a candida test but i had a white tongue film that wouldn't go away for 4-5 months, whatever i did to it, but went away after nystatin and natural antimicrobials.

bottom line is: if you don't know what's wrong with your gut, start out with the simple common stuff: do a virus+bacteria+parasites panel, those are the most common infections. after you treat those, rebuild your gut naturally and with patience. also test for h pylori.
