Root Causes of SIBO - Gut Motility

Gut motility issues can lead to small intestinal bacterial overgrowth or SIBO. Today we are coving four common causes of motility issues in the gut including inflammation, excessive methane production, chronic stress leading to a sympathetic dominant nervous system and bacterial food poisoning.

After years & years of suffering from methane SIBO & doing all the diets & antimicrobials which inevitably failed I progressively eliminated so many foods I ended up carnivore & destroyed my gut. I'm finally awake to the fact that strict diets are a disaster & in my case it's slow motility at the root of the whole problem. I'm taking some of the supplements you use in your practise & starting to reintroduce real food & some fibre - slowly. I'm at the beginning of the journey but feel so much happier to be eating food again in an effort to heal my gut which I now believe is the first step to sorting the Sibo. Thank you so much for you help thru these videos

I'm a professional tree climber/ tree expert. And I have been struggling with depression and anxiety all my life. I'm 36 now and I finally figured out I have candida issues. WHAT A RELIEF FROM DEPRESSION ANXIETY AND NO ENERGY OR MOTIVATION. it's a miracle

Stress should be number one on the list of causes

Takk more about the food poisoning gut bugs.

I keep hearing SIBO and inflammation- but how can we eat an anti-Inflammatory diet if all those foods are high Fodmap? I’m so overwhelmed because it’s like all the foods that heal your gut I’m not allowed to eat while I have SIBO? I’m at my wits end.

So glad I found your channel, clear and straight to the point! 🙏

Thank you so much for the info. 20 years ago when I was a little girl I got Bali Belly really bad and my gut has never been the same. The most extreme bloating you will ever see, even from a glass of water! Number 4 just confirms what I always thought. 15 years in and out of doctors, naturopaths, kinesiologist, healers, psychologists, specialists, iridoligists and pretty much nothing.

I am so thankful you posted this. I didn't have problems until a bought of severe food poisoning my ex-roommate caused. She was refrige cooking some food for a long time purposely growing bacteria and finally when I was able to move out the food was gone but I had gotten severe food poisoned the week before we moved. I had wondered if it may have had something to do with my gut issues. Now Im pretty sure. Plus, your spirit just knows these things. You have no idea how much you have helped me in just a few videos. Bless you luv.

Helpful video but I was hoping for the ‘what to do about it’ part..

pelvic adhesions ????
i suffer from that, and i’ve been wondering if these bugs effect the prostate because had/have SIBO & SIFO & CANDIDA.
my thought is that CANDIDA is causing my pelvic pain/discomfort because it’s the only test aside from SIBO where the results are elevated.

these bugs and fungi seem to take over parts of the body and irritate the tissue.
they also seem to change places, travel, run from other bugs, take over different territory, call it what you want but i feel pain, discomfort, itching, that happens whoever it wants with no provocation on my part. they fight with each other and we feel the pain. this is what goes they my head when i feel these different symptoms in different places.

these bugs have lived in earth since the beginning of time, now that we are here, they are trying to eat us.
i’m being serious.
we make a good eatable host for them.
i don’t think we can get rid of them, not rid them from our bodies anyway.

it’s our fault for feeding them this sugary diet for the past 75 years.

i’m sick of being sick.
now what do we do ???

Thank you so much for this information! I have been doing treatments for messing SIBO for a while, and it’s always ups and downs with symptoms. Right now I think that stress has caused my symptoms. I have seen a lot of information about the diet. I know you talk about supplements, but do you have some information about what is the best diet to get a relapse under control? There’s so much different information, And it’s really confusing. I can’t have eggs, dairy, gluten, sugar, or other sweeteners besides maple syrup.

Taking the proton pump inhibitors caused my SIBO.

[stephenodonnell]

I have had symptoms since Jan 24, had Colonoscopy and Ultrasound tests also Blood tests after all that my Dr concluded I have IBS, i have only diagnosed myself yesterday as SIBO.
The symptoms came after me being on Statins for 5 wks, after research I discovered that Statins can cause the Liver to stop producing Acetylcholine which can slow down the Bowel, no other Drs have made the connection as far as I know, I will book an appointment with my GP tomorrow and continue with my research.

@Todd Mansfield I can see you only take patients from Australia and NZ. Can you recommend any international practitioners?

I was happy and healthy with great digestion. One day I accidentally took an overdose of anti-inflammatories and was put on PPIs for 6-7 weeks. My gastritis has healed and I'm off the PPIs, but now I have no motility, am constipated and feeling really depressed. Has anyone else experienced anything similar? I'm seeing a specialist, but I need to wait a month 😭

I am currently taking Motility Activator in one in morning and one in evening for a week. I can feel some movement in my gut, but it is not enough. Can I increase it to 2 capsules each time.

How do we get archea... vs bacteria. Is low motility more common for IMO?
