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.
SIBO is a condition I commonly test for and treat in the Byron Herbalist clinic in Byron Bay, Australia. If you are living in Australia or New Zealand and are looking for gut health support consider working with me here - www.byronherbalist.com.au/app...
So glad I found your channel, clear and straight to the point! 🙏
Thanks! Great feedback 😊
Excellent info. Thank you!
Deep gratitude !
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.
So glad it was helpful!
Takk more about the food poisoning gut bugs.
More coming soon!
Loving your channel. Learning a lot about the reasons I've been struggling for a decade.
Happy to help!
Thank you! Very informative.
Glad you enjoyed it!
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.
Thanks for the comment! Keep working on it you’ll get there 😊
Ask your doctor about LDN .
I wish you are in Uk. I hope to see you some times soon.
Thank you !
Stress should be number one on the list of causes
Amen!
Not for me.
Isn't stress part of life?
„Chill and eat probiotics“ yes thank you.😁 My Stress is because of this shit
Omicron 1 year ago ruined my gut health to this day...thank you for this video...🙏
Great video
Thanks! I’m glad it was helpful
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
So did you fix it or what? If so how?
Me too bro 🤦♂️
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 ???
@Todd Mansfield I can see you only take patients from Australia and NZ. Can you recommend any international practitioners?
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
Eating meat only, doesn't destroy your gut. Lots of sibo sufferers have cured their sibo just by being on a meat only diet. Might not work for everyone because some people might have other gut issues they're not even aware of. But to say that you destroyed your gut because of the carnivore diet is simply not true.
update?
Doing really really well. I began suffering terribly from histamine intolerance, probably exacerbated by the carnivore diet. Stopped being food phobic & slowly began introducing a wide variety of veg, fruit, grains, a bit of dairy, keeping a food diary. My gut motility is 100% improved, (not perfect but way better & it's still early days) not suffering the SIBO bloat even with the classic IBS type veg to avoid. Buy fresh as possible, cook everything myself, no junk or fast food. Even eating some sugar without ill effects. Putting on weight but it's a small price to pay. @@OGAesthetics
@@criticalmass5402 could you please share how exactly you managed to speed your gut motility? 🙏 Been trying everything with no result😢
Oh boy, I really tried everything& I mean everything. From prescription meds to herbals & supplements, fibre - natural & supplements, all the sibo & ibs diets, low fodmap, elimination diets, no dairy, no whatever...,low carb, probiotics, prebiotics, fermented foods - honestly you name it. Some did nothing, some made things worse or made me sicker, all tried over months not just 5 minutes. In the end I stopped being afraid of food & saw it as my friend. Kept a diary of what went in & how I reacted as well as what came out. Started to eat as wide a variety of foods as possible & as fresh as possible, prepared by me so I can tell what is really causing any reactions. As for motility - magnesium was my answer. Oxide or Citrate only because any excess is excreted when you reach your level of maximum dose so isn't toxic. Started with 400mg/day & added upwards every 3rd day until things started moving. For me about 1200mg a day keeps things rolling. I have read that benfotiamine can be a great help but it made me really sick. I hope you find the answer for you. God bless. @@aurorab6553
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.
polyphenols have some anti-inflammatory and antibiotic properties. i am about to try adding chokeberry (aronia) powder to my elemental shakes, as this berry has one of the highest amounts of polyphenols. there’s no information online regarding its FODMAP or histamine content. but im all screwed up with autoimmune disease so im willing to risk it. im also suspecting autoimmune gastroparesis. (once you have one autoimmune disease, you are likely to collect others). so many of my test results point to crazy levels of inflammation, including the bacteria mentioned in the video. i’ll let you know how the aronia berry works in 2 weeks, please respond to the comment so i get notified 💗
Look into carnivore! I just discovered today so many people said it healed them! Not just with sibo but tons of other stuff! I definitely want to try it but i never liked meat 😆 but after 30 years of suffering, I am going to try it! It’s recommended to take “real salt” by redmond??? For electrolytes ... please look into it first (youtube has many videos)
@Anita my symptoms are so bad when I eat fodmaps 😥
@@azad_ctky meat wrecks me.
@@DejaDrewit It’s so funny you say that because I’m about to start carnivore! Also I heard Butyrate is really the key to actually healing the gut. Look it up, it does everything. I’ll hopefully come back with an update in a few months.
Taking the proton pump inhibitors caused my SIBO.
A common root cause!
Rifaximin helped me so much… but it came back. Within 24 hours I went from horrible to fine. I had to do another round and I’ve really been trying to watch what I eat and consume a lot of fermented foods… NOT probiotic capsules
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.
Do fasting and ask your doctor about LDN.
@@patriciatimson1730 LDN helps some but will not cure Sibo. I even take motegrity which helps stuff keep moving.
@@jamieb5679 I have gained sooo much weight for the last few years , barely eat and it won’t move. 😩
Hello! Is there anyway to treat sibo and infection without aggravating my gastritis. Oregano kills me
Have you come across any links between Cannabis use and SIBO? I am aware CHS affects the CB1 &CB2 receptors in the digestive system and also the vagus nerve.. Gastroparesis is a common symptom of CHS also.
THC stops gut motility
I have it. I am seeing a natural path: it’s terrible. I have IBS and I am always gassy constipated, and bloated. I had Covid back in Nov last year. I can’t eat anything solid foods. I live on mush and you first ans petition drinks and soups. It has caused hell on my GI tract for 12 months now. As well as severe stomach pain and lots of diarrhea like 4x a day. It stopped for a month now. I hope I am able to be cured by my naturopath.
I got SIBO after Covid as well! But mine is methane. The only thing that has worked for me so far is the antibiotics. Still not 100%, but going to take another round and see how that goes. This is not an easy disease to deal with at all - literally has been the hardest time of my life dealing with this the past year. I hope we both are able to heal!
@@alexarentsch7370 Omicron has really messed up my gut, and I suspect it is SIBO and LIMO...plus I also have diverticulitis from before Covid...what a disaster.
is there a way to chat with you Doctor privately?
Dr. Cywes, Episode #221. Now this. I ain't confused, nope, nope. 🤪
Do you have any herbal practices (friends ) in the states by chance??
Helpful video but I was hoping for the ‘what to do about it’ part..
ua-cam.com/video/MRhBMkWw7_E/v-deo.html
Don't forget opioid induced gastric slowing, and slowing of motility! That's a leading cause that many people overlook. Also high doses of marijuana oil or other edibles slow your gut motility as well! These are valuable angles to consider.
so true! I love the input here
They haven’t even tested me for this and I have a lot of gut pain and issues all they say is I have EPI
I have slow motility, chronic SIBO and candida overgrowth
Is it treatable the post infectious sibo?
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.
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'm going through same and am all gassy ...takes a month too for me to see my doc
Absolutely. PPIs are the cause of your digestive dysfunction.
PPIs counter gastric acid production which has a cascade effect down the GI tract… and has a direct correlation to microbe imbalance. This leads to symptoms like, constipation, slow motility, gas, etc. The most likelihood of developing SIBO should be clear at this point. This is because the first line of defence-stomach acid production-has been compromised. As a consequence, all sorts of opportunistic bugs have a chance to proliferate, especially in areas where they shouldn’t.
PPIs are probably ok for a week or two as a way to address an underlying issue, but not longer. It’s important to get off them ASAP!
I took PPIs for over a year, they destroyed my gut and caused all kinds of digestive ills known to man. From constipation, to diarrhoea, bloating, flatulence, food sensitivities, leaky gut, enzymes and bile deficiencies. And lost a tonne of weight, for my troubles.
Fortunately, I discovered Betaine HCL, a supplement which help kill off bugs and also help digest food, especially protein in the stomach… apparently it also helps the stomach start producing acid again. In addition, I also use broad spectrum enzymes to help break down food for easy assimilation. Another supplement which I consider, a wild card, is Ox Bile-sometimes referred to as, Bile salts. It reduces constipation by helping move the food down the intestines (this is on the assumption that low acid affects the flow of bile from gallbladder -causing it to become sluggish). But the main function is to emulsify fats-essentially break down fats-and kill off bugs that have somehow escaped the stomach acid.
Recommendations:
- first and foremost: do a RESEARCH on All the supplements I’ve mentioned and their use
- do intermittent fasting-instead of 3 meals a day, do 2 meals, and DO NOT go to bed on full stomach (leave 4 or more hrs after last meal)
- take Betaine HCL with every meal (look up on how to titrate up to get to your level of tolerance)
- you also want to add digestive enzymes and Ox Bile to support pancreas and gallbladder to maximise digestion and absorption.
- most practitioners recommend lowering your carbohydrates to help balance some bugs from proliferating.
- when ready, start with Betaine HCL with each meal
I hope this helps.

My 24 yr old daughter was diagnosed with methane SIBO. Her results were Breathing Gas 1 - 36, 2 - 36.9, 3 - 27.3, 4 - 28, 5 - 27.8, 6 - 41.5 and 7 - 40.5.. She also had a gut microbiome test which showed very methanobrevibactor smithii at 12.5, high Ruminococcus torque and bromi and high staphylococcus aureus, high fusobacterium nucleation, high akkermansia muciniphila and low bifidobacterium spp., low coprococcus eutactus, low roseburia homini, low subdoligranulum variable, low bilophilia wadsworthia, low veillonella spp, low bacteriodes dorei and ovalus and high bacteriodes thetaiotaomicron. She has been recommended to take Invivo prebio PHGG, neem, allicin, berberine and toxaprevent medi pure capsules as well as hci pepsin. Having watched your excellent videos she ate a clove of garlic minced and had no bloating. I wondered what your thoughts on these recommendations were? She has taken Berberine and Oregano oil before but this doesnt seem to have shifted it.
May I ask what type of dr she went to for this testing?
How’s your daughter now?
So having a hard time finding root cause, since I’m not healing. I thought it was too many antacids when I was stressed. I took nexium for a week and had horrible pain. But since my xaifaxan round and two herbal rounds I’ve been taking digestive enzymes and HCL. Trying to rebuild acid. And here I am 6mnths later bloated as hell 😞 idk what else to do I wanna give up. I have high antibodies for thyroid but nothing that needs meds apparently according to my endocrinologist. So I’m lost. Never in my life did I have this problem. I could eat anything and was always pretty healthy. I see all kinds of people eat junk or drink and do whatever and they don’t have this issue. I’m so depressed because of being in pain daily and am terrified to eat a meal because I know I’ll be triple more bloated.
Bro same with me
I am taking apple cider vinegar and it's kind of helping me
I also feel boosted every day weather it eat or not but now after I change my diet and my routine is like I am 50 percent healed
I just follow to eat 2-3 time with filling only half of my stomach with some ayurvedic treatment.
You can try iknie how it feels bro
Talk to your doctor about LDN. It’s a miracle after 10+ years
@@patriciatimson1730 low dose naltrexone? Does it fix things permanently?
@@Sarvagya4 I do a very low sugar diet including very little fruit, no raw veges and no wine just a sugar free gin if I have a drink. I take digestive enzymes after a large meal. LDN gets rid of inflammation but needs to be taken daily, I have built up from 1/2ml a day to 4 mlg . That is my sweet spot. Must continue to use until you have settled to gut down may take months. 😁
Last 2 year I have dysentery & indigestion problem. February 2022 I was seeing a doctor and was told to do a clonoscopy and I did a clonoscopy. But the results was good. Then the doctor told me I have IBS. suggestions some antibiotics and probiotics. I have been fine since last few months but yesterday I was eating nuts (I think I ate a little too much nuts) the next day I got bloated gas and difficulty digesting as before! But I'm confused about SIBO & IBD. Feel that I have SIBO because feel a lot of eructation problem.I don't want to take medicine again, is there a natural solution?
So what are the best ways to improve motility? I got Xifaxan on hand but im worried i’ll relapse (Ive taken twice before without much luck). I have most lifestyle shit in check, but are there specific motility agents that would be beneficial? Thank you
@@ginoasci2876 I just tested positive for Hydrogen dominant sibo, on day 6 of rififaxmin. Seems like I started out ok until I think day 3 or 4 where I started reacting to my foods badly . Set a fire off in my entire body seemingly. My stomach, pancreas area, my chest mainly the left side of my chest was on fire and hurting so badly. I been feeling like giving up.
Prokinetics like ginger or drugs like motegrity help
Try motegrity 2 mg.
By motility,is this regarding the movement of food/waste moving through the gut small & large intestine. Thank you.?
you've got it! I'll track mouth to toilet bowl gut transit time with most patients. What a valuable piece of data!
Do you maybe also see the links between the gallbladder disfunction and the SIBO?
Big time! This is a piece I am always looking for.
@@ByronHerbalist Can you please please also record a video on that? I'd love to hear your expertise on that. I have fat (protein) indigestion plus SIBO. In my opinion, if I fix the gallbladder problem the SIBO will go away, but my doctor wants to treat SIBO. I am a bit confused, cause without fixing the gallbladder issue, SIBO will come back, no?
Don’t know if you’ll see this, I developed methane and hydrogen positive Sibo a year and a half ago and it’s absolute ruined my life. I had zero gut problems all my live and I tried going vegan for a year and it absolutely destroyed my gut. I was with a online doctor with parsley health and have tried antibiotics, antimicrobials, elemental diet, prokintics and probiotics and still an severely bloated 24/7 and have horrible anxiety because it’s hard to breathe for how bloated I always am. It’s been an entire year of extreme suffering and I can’t really afford spending anymore money on it because it’s adding up to thousands of dollars. Is there anything you can think of to try? I was thinking about doing a elemental diet while taking antimicrobials at the same time
You must try and go on LDN .
Yes that’s me too. I have recently gone on LDN. Look it up.
Try carnivore diet! And digestive enzymes! No raw veges
Any progress? How are you doing now?
My daughter is going through this same thing. Exact symptoms as you. Has anything helped you? If so, please tell us. At this point all my daughter can eat is meat.

Ginger Tea... Peppermint Tea.. Swedish Bitter.
Take MMC's. You can buy the supplements. They didn't work for me though 🤔😞
Are Sibo and Gastroparesis related to each other?
Gastronomes can occur together with sibo
Do you thick making raw nut milk could cause this? I had endoscopy & they said I have Sibo.
They spray fungicides on nuts - so be careful with anything not organic. Cashews can have mould too.
4=inflammation / methane / stress / food poisoning
I have had stomach grumbling/gurgling and popping for several months that went away and has now come back. This has been accompanied by bloated stomach and slow digestion, constipation. Is this something that is associated with SIBO ?
I’m in the exact same boat 🥲 im guessing sibo too.

Endo Patient here. I blew up after anti microbial. I like the biofilm busters. What can i do to fix methane SIBO. My result was 10 ppm.
10ppm is pretty mild methane production. If you are constipated and bloated then I might recommend treating it directly. With the endometriosis I would focus on leaky gut treatments, lowering the pro inflammatory bacteria in the gut and possibly rebalancing the vaginal microbiome too.

Do you think improving gut motility also can work to fix SIFO?
In some for sure. If it is your root cause you'll need to fix it to see any lasting relief
Do sibo cause pelvic and bladder pain along with weight lost?
Yes, I'm having same issues.
I got SIBO only because of a proton pump inhibitor (Emozul). It really caused me so much trouble that I could not eat AND developed hypoglycemia. Is that strange? I haven't found anyone with that issue. Am finally going to start Rifaximin. I hope it helps!
Does caffeine stop MMC from working?
No it's actually making my movement fast and also produce more bile so I think that my bile sludge is solve I don't feel pain in right rib
