SIBO & IBS Caused By VITAMIN DEFICIENCY? 

B T How much benfothiamine do you take ?

@@jennybadl7840 Along with B-complex and Magnesium Glycinate - 200 mg--I take Benfotiamine 150 mg after breakfast and 150 mg after lunch. I am planning to up the dosage to 250 mg + 250 mg

@@BobsClique Thank you vert much !

Thats really great to hear. I see it SO OFTEN, that I made another video about it :D

Fully agree, same here. Even fixed arhythmia (pac/pvc) with Benfotamine and additional minerals. Within weeks.....

You're welcome :) Glad it helped you

Can you please describe your weird nerve pains a little bit more, the tingling on your back too? Does it feel like your sprouting wings or light pressure feeling?

What is TTFD?

@@paulalittle5824 it feels like the tag of your shirt scratching your back all day until you are so irritated you have to rip your clothes off. That’s the best I can do. Not pain. Light tingling in a small area. If it was anywhere near my shirt tag I would ascribe it to that. But it’s on my shoulder blade. It’s just maddening. Chinese water torture.

​@@lizzyjeanne It could be stress related. In my case folic acid caused such sensations and muscle twitching. I'm glad your stomach acid improved with thiamine! I must try that too as I was recently diagnosed for SIBO

Elliot is not a doctor. However he is an excellent teacher who explains the information clearly enough for everyone to comprehend.

They dont teach doctors about gut issues in medical college, when u go to doc for stomach issue, they're usually clueless.

@@BaljinderSingh-xy4ik exatamente

Oh yeah, Spirulina is very powerful for IBS. I use that powder as well and it's a game changer

What do you take or eat?

Awesome!

any results after you have taken Vitamin B1?

That is interesting. This video caught my attention because my mother has so many of these issues. She has gone on a FODMAP diet that helps to some extent. But she ends limiting so much that she eats. Mostly, she'll eat the same few foods all the time: gluten-free crackers with cheese and rice puffs with peanut butter. Not exactly nutrient-density of any sort. And rice can potentially be high in heavy metals. Anyway, considering your comment, some of her SIBO issues might be with food are histamine intolerance. It would be nice to sort it all out, as she has struggled with this for many decades.

By the way, an animal-based diet (particularly if nose-to-tail) is definitely going to provide all of the B vitamins and other essential nutrients needed. It might be helpful to ensure enough organ meats or else take desiccated organ meat supplements. That is what I do, a combination of the two, along with bone broth and plenty of animal fat.

Two important things I should add: 1) since meat contains histamine, especially meat that has been sitting in the fridge for a few days before it's cooked, I took DAO capsules (diamineoxydase) to handle the histamine in my food while I was trying to heal myself. 2) The extra HCl and bile salts not only killed off my SIBO, they disturbed my normal gut flora too (I got the trots); adding full-fat Greek yogurt (no fruit or sugar) to my diet for a few days straightened out that problem so that now I'm ok and can eat what I want--even chocolate which usdd to bring on a severe histamine response. [Be very aware that, though DAO caps will handle the histamine in your food, they will not be helpful against the histamine that your own body releases. For example, chocolate and red wine cause a strong histamine-release and DAO caps are not helpful so be aware and do your research. There are websites out there that are dedicated to helping people with histamine issues.

@@joanblack6672 - Fresh meat and fish is low in histamines. You can solve that problem by buying fresh meat directly from the butcher. There are also services that will ship fresh meat and fish that is immediately flash frozen. Besides avoiding meat that is aged or been sitting at the store, including processed meat, don't slow cook meat or eat leftover meat from previous days and don't eat ground meat. For the same reason, avoid fermented and aged foods of all sorts, from animals and plants. If possible, get meat from animals that were slaughtered under low-stress conditions and so avoid factory-farmed. By the way, organ meats like kidney contain DAO. But I can't speak of foods that increase the body's endogenous levels of histamines, as I now avoid chocolate and red wine. In any case, I'm not sure that histamines have ever been a problem for me. I've had various symptoms when I shifted from various diets, but they've mostly all resolved now that I've settled into a diet that is ketoish and carnivorish with some occasional carbs and plant foods. Beef, in particular, is very easy on my system with no obvious issues of digestion or anything else.

@@joanblack6672 What brand of Greek yogurt did you eat ? Do you recommend bile salt and Hcl for Sibo ? Appreciate your help 🙏

Hi. What dosage of thiamine were you on?

I've had gut problems n recently use L Glutamine but still have gas n constipation what do you suggest n which brand of b1 or Glutamine you're taking n how much ( what dosage) Thanks:)))

@@jerryigwe7684 I started first on a mineral complex, then micro doses of benfothiamine and built my way up. Therapeutic doses are around 600-1200mgs, so I've been pushing towards that through the months. I'm currently at 600, but took a long time to get there. I also take a methylated b complex a few times a week to make sure I'm not missing anything. Thiamine in high doses should be taken with magnesium and potassium, as it uses it all up, you'll end up with cramps otherwise. Good luck!

@@moniryousefian8782 it's a combo treatment as they all rely on each other to work. I started with a mineral complex by SISU, then started low dose benfothiamine (life extension brand) and worked my way up to higher doses. I take AOR b complex ultra a few times a week. Potassium and magnesium need to be taken with high dose thiamine or you'll get muscle cramps and fatigue. Therapeutic doses of thiamine are between 600-1200mgs, I started at 20 and worked up over the months, now at 600. It took a few months for the treatment to really worth. Glutamine I started low, got one without any fillers, then built up to a loading dose of a few scoops a day, then, after feeling a lot better, worked down to quarter scoop per day. Hope it helps you.

@@meigatronl.7813 hi. Thank you so much for your response. I will like to know, did you ever at any time had “brain fog” as one of your symptoms?

@IreneMa I had fibro since 2005, and about 11 years ago I prayed desperate for answers as the many doctors I’d had were no help. I believe Abba God answered by sending me several people within a week’s time to randomly mention “candida” to me. I started working in that in a variety of ways and I believe it’s contributed to improving health among adding magnesium, iodine and Vit d plus spending more time in prayer, worship and the Bible in God’s presence. May you continue to find answers and increase in health.

​@@ahlaali7934SIBO is the main causes of IBS

​@@ahlaali7934only just saw your reply. No I didn't get tested for B1 levels. I actually started taking the benfotiamine for Parkinson's symptoms and the gut improved. If the gut is dysfunctional, then you malabsorb nutrients that make neurotransmitters and hormones.

@@boop5287 : hard to tell if it’s stuck open or not. still have green stools from time to time but my stomach still hurts sometimes it burns like a fire i can’t eat greens what symptoms do you experience? and did or do you have H. Pylori ?

Jump online and order Dave’s Chew. To stop the burn dip the tip of your finger into baking soda…swish and swallow. Another thing you can do is get a nasal saline spray dump it out and create a baking soda and alkaline water mixture and squirt in the back of the throat. Reduces pepsin in the esophagus.

@@chrystale888 vitamin B1 comes in many different forms. Each bill contains a different type of B1 and acts differently. Just a plain pill does not fully explain what you are taking. If you could share the brand name then I could understand what type of B1 you are taking.

Did you have bloating or constipation that was helped with B1 and B12?

Bloating; Spring Valley or any brand from a reputable health food store.

@@bornwin-sx9oz Thanks for your reply.

Yes I heard a deficiency in vitamin B12 can also cause the same symptoms mentioned in this video

How did you become?

How much dose of thiamine did you use? What is your current situation?

@@kemalonur6319 I used triple dose of thiamine HCL at first (thats 'just' 9mg per day, but comes to about 850% rda) for like 3 months. It helped me enough, I dont take any at the moment but I feel some symptoms trying to come back (ny digestion is fine though) so I will start it again soon to see if thats because of thiamine or something else. I need to buy new which I cant at the moment, but I might go for benfothiamine now. It was unavailable before as only 1 (web) shop here sells it, and order from abroad gets too expensive due to import taxes.

Any update

⁠@@DanielSheikh-ge3mugotta love when they say theyll come back to update us and 2 months later still no update 🙄 Hate when ppl doesn’t follow through with what they say they will do. I don’t say that to be mean, it’s just irritating to say the least.

What b1 do you take

And how much do you take

@@sejalfirodia1729 Hi I take 300mg of Benfotiamine and 100mg of TTFD daily. I also removed from my diet garlic and onions because I noticed these items were causing problems with my digestion. I also follow the FODMAP diet and walk for 30 minutes 3 times a day. Hope this helps you.

R u able to cure

hope you are feeling better

Try Cloves Damo mate ....Great for the Gut ...large and small

Drink one quart of cabbage juice (juice it) every day. Consider the work of Garnett Cheney, M.D. He had 100 peptic ulcer patients drink a quart of raw cabbage juice daily. The patients reported dramatically less pain, and X-ray examination confirmed faster healing time. There was no other change in their diet, and they did not have drug therapy. 81% of the patients were symptom-free within one week; over two-thirds were better in just four days. Average healing time for patients given standard hospital treatment was over a month. (Cheney, G: "Vitamin U Therapy of Peptic Ulcer," California Medicine, vol. 77, number 4, October, 1952) Dr. Cheney used cabbage juice to also treat gastric ulcers and duodenal ulcers. He clearly was onto something, which he called "Vitamin U" (for ulcer) for lack of a better name. Today, the cabbage family (cruciform) vegetables including Brussels sprouts, cauliflower, kale and broccoli, are finally being recommended to help prevent diseases including cancer. Dr. Cheney was getting therapeutic results in four days with cabbage juice nearly 70 years ago! If it worked then, it will work now. I know of people who have utilized cabbage juice along with vegetarian diet and fasting to heal all forms of gastrointestinal diseases without drugs and without surgery. One person even cured her untreatable rectal bleeding with cabbage juice. I know of people who, instead of using cabbage, juiced broccoli, broccoli leaves, or kale and obtained success with fairly severe, chronic GI pain. They juiced the kale or broccoli along with carrots to keep the juicer from clogging or running too warm. Dr. Cheney's patients probably were't wild about the idea at first, either. However, they were out of the hospital far sooner, with far less pain, that patients who were not juicing. If cabbage juice can heal a bleeding stomach ulcer, crater and all, in a patient with the condition so bad that it requires hospitalization, then it is plausible that it will heal above the stomach (Barrett's) or below it (Crohn's). Supplementing with vitamin C is very valuable to help heal lesions and inflammation all along the GI tract. Thousands of milligrams in divided doses are necessary for best results. Enough "C" should be taken to improve the condition, but not so much as might cause excessively loose bowels. A non-acidic vitamin C is ideal, because it will not irritate the digestive tract. Sodium ascorbate or calcium ascorbate both work well. Magnesium ascorbate will to, but it is pricey. Dosage is determined by personal experimentation GERD and Barrett's esophagus patients do not usually come home from the doctor's office with a prescription for cabbage juice. That is regrettable, since the juice of any of the cruicform vegetables hastens healing of the inner lining of the throat, as well as the stomach, as well as the intestine, as well as the bowel. Yes, that includes Crohn's disease.

I saw a post on Twitter how a guy cured his crohn's by daily taking Niacin and Entero Thorne mix

Any luck mate?

How is it going!

Do you drink coffee?

Same here. I can nail some trigger foods down but others seem to be elusive. I was told the only diagnosis they could give me was IBS but my symptoms are more SIBO. I can't get officially tested for SIBO because you have to eliminate vit D from your diet for about 2 weeks. The minute I stop taking it, the muscle cramps get so bad.

Hi Jackie, the B vieamins helped you?

@@ateachableheart2649never heard you’ve gotta stop vitamin D prior To a SIBO breath test mate. Where did you get this information?

@@BT_life2 A Functional Medicine doctor.

@jackiealv6547 - I have same problem, diet seems to have no role, some days better others worse, all over the map. Currently being treated for SIBO but only in to the 1st few days of treatment. But it did improve my severe diarrhea and settled down the crazy non stop gurgling. HOWEVER ----- just had an MRI yesterday with IV contrast and since then my symptoms have come back.

You are shortening your life unfortunately as low carb, high fat diets are proven to to do in randomized, controlled studies. Eating meat to avoid IBS/SIBO is not a long term fix.

​@@xmonikerhotmailcomreally, can you cite a link to an actual study or are you just saying that because it makes you sound like you know something?

@@xmonikerhotmailcomnobody can extend or shorten when they will die except God

Any update?

@@CroixPevear The Vitamin B1 does give you a lot of energy but didn’t clear up my problems entirely. I also have kidney disease so that may have something to do with it. You also have to take a Bcomplex vitamin to insure there is no imbalances.

@@jimmcconnell7328 ok thank you

My symptoms sound like yours. Were you tested for low thiamine? Can you tell me, of the supplements you mentioned, which of those help with migraine and which help with the stomach issues? How much thiamine do you take? And do you continue to take these supplements or do you stop at some point? Thanks for any info you can provide.

So you took a b complex plus a extra B1 and B2 supplement ?

In some other comments, I was talking about organ meats on a nose-to-tail animal-based diet. I do try to eat them on occasion, but I also take some organ meat supplements to make sure I'm getting some of the essential nutrients on a daily basis. Your stack looks similar to mine. I've been including nutritional yeast, choline, and R-lipoic acid. And, in the past, I was also getting a B complex, sulbutiamine and glutathione. I took a break from the B vitamins, since some of them are stored in the liver and one doesn't want to over-supplement them. I try to cycle on and off certain supplements.

@@briioxx7468 you're exactly who I was looking for in these comments. The b1 goes ok for you? Are you supplementing with the l-methyl as well? I've been struggling immensely to work out the kinks with this inheritance and I fear taking the b1 and spiraling further somehow. I'd greatly appreciate to hear a little more of your protocol and how it worked out for you.

@@betsyboof2910 heyyy haha. Yeah I was doing 100mg of b1 but don't really feel too much different tbh. Unsure if it's because I'm not taking enough. On my oat test though it did say 0 b6. So none in my system. I was taking activated b vitamins and they help a little. But was still getting pins and needs in hands and feet and mad ringing in my ears for weeks now. My natropath said it's histamine problems which is probably true but I feel like maybe my root cause is not enough b6 as b6 helps break down DAO. Soo i got 100mg of b6 p5p online and trying to take a higher dose as I've been low probably my entire life. I'm really hoping this helps because my oat test said I have no dopamine, serotonin etc and was saying it was b6 related. What have you been trying? What do you find works for you??

You sound just like me! I just did the OAT test and I have no b vitamins, no dopamine! My neurotransmitters are low… and I have the MTHFR gene mutation 😅🤦🏻‍♀️. I just started B1 & a B complex. How’s this going for you??

Magnesium, other B vitas, electrolytes, molybdenum. Pretty much try to cover all of the essential micronutrients if lacking in your diet
