Small Intestine Bacteria Overgrowth (SIBO)

My doctor started me on bitters 10 minutes before meals to get digestive juices flowing, a digestive enzyme with food, a prebiotic and probiotic to help build up the good bacteria. And I also consulted with her staff nutritionist on foods to omit and incorporate. Basically, I reduced high sugar fruits (I only eat fruit from the berry family) and vegetables, added Kefir, yogurts high in live cultures, fermented foods such as pickles but only from the refrigerated section of the market (this is required for fermented foods), sauerkraut and kombucha if you like how these taste (I don’t). I’m also gluten free which my doctor believes is better for gut health whether you’re gluten intolerant or not. She is also an advocate of grass feed meats and dairy products and wild caught fish and eating organic as much as possible.
I’ve mentioned a book before called SUPER GUT by Dr. William Davis. His recommendations are similar to my doctor’s. You’ll learn about what SIBO is, foods to eat. recipes also included. This book is highly informative and great if you’re motivated to do this on your own.
