People who know me will know that I tend to be very critical of the medical profession, but this is excellent, well delivered, competent, useful. This doctor sounds exactly what I expect a good doctor to sound like!! I wish she were the rule, and not what she in fact is, namely an exception. Thank you!
My SIBO was triggered by adderal XR (extended release). Went from having great health and skin my whole life to waking up with D-bowel movements and this pocket of bloating every morning in my right abdomen, malnutrition, hair falling out, brain fog etc. It’s unbelievable that there’s little information anywhere on the consequences of a drug that common (that we give to kids!) It took years to get control of my health and I’m still healing later issues that arose like rosacea. Still working on it, your channel is helping me close that gap!!
Oh wow that is crazy Jacq! And you're right, these medications are so commonly prescribed! Would you please email me your story to doctor@infinityholistichealth.com? I'd love to research this more and possibly do a video about it.
I started using medicinal cannabis a year ago to help with sleep and pain as I have Lyme/ME. It seems that the THC has slowed my motility right down and I am now suffering more than ever with GI issues!!! If I don't take the THC, I can't sleep!
I'll def need to make some sleep videos for this channel- a lot of people requested it! In the meantime, check out the IBS Freedom Podcast episode about sleep 😘 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-A1BbRj_kHxs.html

Really enjoy your videos. Been binge watching lately...you are very good. But....One thing that seems to be missing from the conversation about gut health is adequate sun exposure. I have a pet theory that SIBO along with many related conditions, (eczema, brain fog etc) is caused, at least in part, due to a lack of sunlight. Sure, diet plays a role but without adequate sunlight, cells and organs don’t have the energy to detox correctly...this sets the stage for widespread inflammation and damage. SIBO may actually be a defense/repair mechanism that repairs the gut lining, much like H pylori “overgrowth” repairs the stomach lining when it becomes inflamed and damaged. SIBO may just be acting like an army of firemen, and are there to put out the flames and restore damaged tissue. Thus, SIBO is not the enemy. It’s an effect, not a cause. Again just a theory.
That is such a good point! I definitly think this is a part of the puzzle (what %, I'm not sure, it likely varies from person to person). And it lilely goes far beyond the vitamin d thing (although that is important for critter control). Do you have any "experts" you'd suggest I look up/follow to dive into this theory more? I'd love to flesh it out and possibly have an expert on the IBS Freedom Podcast!
Supplementary to this: Sunlight is understood as being basically "vitamin D" and this is such a grotesque simplification - sunlight is directly involved in literally thousands of [known] chemical reactions in the body.. we are not so distinct from plants after all. aim for sunlight every day, even in Winter. These academics that say "hur dur sun sucks in Winter" are operating off purely a narrow arrogance. To presume that our body engages in all these mechanisms with sunlight exposure for no reason is asinine. 15 min per day, on the dot, make it spotty
Man, this is becoming a popular request! 😊 In the meantime, check out the IBS Freedom Podcast episode about sleep 😘 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-A1BbRj_kHxs.html

Thank you for the info. You are helping me navigate my 5 year battle. Do you do zoom consultations using my health insurance? Finding a doctor that get sibo is difficult on my town.
Where can we contact you for consultation dr Nicole? Or a good list of experts in Sibo I have sibo since 2013 seen different doctors and the very last doctor 2 years with her and no good results.
All i know is i feel 1 million times better when I don’t eat and I just take shots of coconut oil and I go through die off for two or three days. It seems the specific carb diet works great for me
@@josephpchajek2685 currently with a functional medicine . Yes this is a battle to figure out. So far 2 months of supplements and nothing but more expensive tests and costs.im at the end of my rope.
