If you felt Izabella Wentz's series, The Thyroid Secret was educational, you will get your PhD with sibosos.com but it is still understandable. After many years trying to figure out the thyroid problem which then turned into a study of the gut problem which then began the search into stealth infections which appears to me the REAL problem. These interviews which are still streaming give amazing information and I guarantee you will have many aha moments. Tick borne diseases and food poisoning in the past (anywhere in your past) could be the instigators setting up stealth infections of the gut and which then can cause a cascade of symptoms. I can't emphasize enough that almost every symptom from brain fog to the pain in your elbow can be involved. An ileocecal valve which is more or less the doorman to areas of the intestine can be stuck.....either open or closed..... but did you know high cortisol can shut all the valves? The series exposes so many of the secrets inside your body which to me gives hope there are answers and treatments to follow.
I may post significant light bulb moments as they rerun the series. SIBO has only been known for about ten years and though I am no expert it certainly appears to be a major discovery in chronic disease.
