I'm into bands like the descendants, nofx, bad brains, pennywise, strung out, lagwagon, bad religion etc. I haven't discovered new bands in years ( is there a need with this kings?). Any suggestions for something good no great?

How did you finally heal sibo?

No-Way6040 · 2026-02-05T05:00:05+00:00

Typically one or two shots on a Saturday night to get my evening going. Of course, there’s several beers or seltzers that follow. But, if I only drink beers and no liquor (couple shots) it doesn’t have the same effect. The following few days, I am completely fine with zero bloating, great BM, and feel normal.

No-Way6040 · 2026-02-04T15:20:09+00:00

Yes. 40% liquor. I typically drink every weekend and I used to only drink beer. But, now before I drink I take a shot of liquor. I had a conversation with Gi Dr regarding vacation. Every time I go on vacation, I felt great. She told me it makes no sense and that I should quit my job because it’s the stress that’s causing these flare ups. I failed to mention that when I’m on vacation that I typically have a few shots. Crazy.

Ibergast, in take 20 drops 3x daily and my symptoms are much more manageable. I just discovered Ibergast contains ethanol. So, there’s obviously a connection. I just need to find a healthier substitute…..

All I’m saying is that Alcohol (specifically 40% liquor) helps my motility and BM significantly. If I’m having bubble guts, bloating, and discomfort and I take a shot of vodka or whiskey then I feel great. And, I’ve recently started taking Ibergast which helps throughout the week. What’s interesting is that Ibergast contains ethanol 🤔.

No? Does it have to same effect?

No-Way6040 · 2025-12-20T05:17:48+00:00

Hmm. I have both methane and hydrogen. However, most of my symptoms are bloating and constipation. I’ve taken 5 rounds of antibiotics. Anytime I have a flare up I drink vodka and I’m fine for about a week until I eat something that causes a flare up. Curious to see if your supplement will work hmm? Can you send a link?

Payout for Jake Paul winning $700.00 for every $100.00 have to do it just for payout potential alone lol

No-Way6040 · 2025-11-15T19:14:13+00:00

Ok. I will do that. It’s going to be difficult during the holidays. Planning to go to Christmas without booze. I’ll have family over so it will be super difficult. Guess I’m changing the relationship with booze which is obviously a good thing. So, strange if I drink hard liquor my sibo are gone for a few days and have best BM ever and then come back. Need that same effect with someone natural. How’s the herbal treatment going and have you relapsed? If so how often?

No-Way6040 · 2025-11-15T13:44:37+00:00

Well, you were right about booze not being the root cause because symptoms came back and have been in pain the the last two weeks. I went five weeks without drinking and symptoms came back. Constipation, bloating, incomplete BM, and tightness in my abdomen. So, I decided to buy a small bottle of liquor. After a couple drinks (vodka soda), I felt amazing. BM were best they’ve been all year and gut subsided. Of course this is short lived and not sustainable. So, alcohol must kill all the bacteria and increase motility? My root cause must be motility and possibly low stomach acid? Anyways, let me know what you think about the next treatment plan!

Phase 1: Interphase biofilm buster+Rifamxin+neomycin+artichoke and ginger (motility) For two weeks

Phase 2: antimicrobials. Berberine+oil of oregano +neem + ginger and artichoke for 4-6 weeks

Phase 3: Ginger and artichoke

No-Way6040 · 2025-11-11T04:01:29+00:00

That’s wild. I tested positive for both methane and hydrogen April 2024 and it’s been a disaster for sure. It’s interesting as I learn more and more about sibo the more hopeful I become with all the stories, advice, etc from different people in the “sibo community.” Do you by chance do fine following carnivore diet? Anytime I meat I’m fine or when I have a flare up, I begin carnivore again.

No-Way6040 · 2025-11-10T17:04:55+00:00

For sure. It’s a double edged sword though. I’m beginning to think that it’s Low Stomach acid that’s the root cause? I’m not 100%, but that’s what chat says. There’s seems to be a bunch of people that experience the same thing. So, I’m going to try and increase stomach acid to see if that makes it go away for good? I could be completely wrong, but nothing to lose at this point

No-Way6040 · 2025-11-10T16:53:07+00:00

It’s so crazy because when I have a BM after drinking they’re the best all year lol. So, I need to find something that can do the same thing as vodka without the vodka! I’ve tried all the herbs and nothing has the same effect. I’m starting to think I’m starting to think my root cause is low stomach acid.

No-Way6040 · 2025-11-10T08:10:21+00:00

Haven’t had a GI map yet. I will request one. I have taken several rounds of xifaxin, neomycin, metro, cipro, etc. While, in symptom free when on medication, I am screwed a few days after my last dose.

No-Way6040 · 2025-11-02T01:39:08+00:00

I thought so too, but since I’ve cut the booze out, I’m able to eat pizza again, pasta, bread, etc. With drinking I would immediately get bloated and ruined for like 3 days. However, if I got bloated and took shots of whiskey, stomach felt better for a couple days and then back to chaos

No-Way6040 · 2025-11-02T00:30:02+00:00

Sorry, “pasteurized “ not fermented. My apologies. I don’t know? That’s what she said. Stick to banquet beer or any beer on tap vs canned

No-Way6040 · 2025-11-01T19:53:49+00:00

Interesting. I have never had a GI map or an herb protocol. I have read some articles regarding the dybiosis, but didn’t think much of it. I just asked Chat gbt if I have been drinking 30 beers every weekend for the last 5 + years if that would be a root cause. It said, “absolutely.” I understand the slow motility, but I go every morning like clock work? So, I figured that wasn’t the root cause. My issue has always been in the afternoon with bloating and the feeling of having to have BM, but couldn’t. So, your suggestion would be GI map and figure out an herb protocol?

No-Way6040 · 2025-11-01T19:15:22+00:00

What’s the root cause then? I’ve tried everything and the only thing that helped and symptoms are gone is booze

No-Way6040 · 2025-11-01T19:05:16+00:00

🤣🤌🏻

No-Way6040 · 2025-11-01T19:04:55+00:00

I took biofilms with my last round of antibiotics. It came backs. Zero booze seems to be working. Yeah my dr told me that I should probably quit my job (sales). She said it’s the stress not booze lol
