Flare up relief

When I’m having a flare up of my ibs/SIBO of nausea, a bloated gurgling stomach is there anything anyone can suggest I take to relieve these symptoms they can go on all day into the night I can’t eat or sleep. Surely there must be something I can take. I’ve tried over the counter meds with no effect.

Hi Beau63,

I’m sorry to hear this. Have you heard or tried Atrantil ? It’s expensive but worth reading about.

Hi,

Stomach issues are beyond difficult, I do hope you find relief. Diet plays a big role of course. What helped me is zinc carnosine,DGL, probiotic and digestive enzymes, vitamin Dk and k2, fish oil and a good b complex that have the actives like methylfolate, benfotiamine, etc. I take these above on the regular.

Also, there are studies on herbal antibiotics that were comparable to antibiotics for treating SIBO. They especially used the brands named metagenics and Biotics Research in the study.

As always do your due diligence about researching my recommendations to see if there are any contraindications.

Wishing you well on your journey and I hope you find something that works and helps you...

Great answer but may I ask what DGL is ?

Deglycyrrhizinated Licorice (DGL).

^ Very important to get this than regular licorice root because it has potential health ramifications.

Thank you I will. I seem to take things for a little while then give up

Mastic Gum + DGL + Slippery Elm helped me a great deal.
