Hey, folks! Welcome back to another exciting case study. In this video, we'll be discussing a patient who presented with severe constipation, bloating, and distension. Suspecting methane SIBO, we decided to conduct a comprehensive microbiome mapping stool test to uncover the underlying causes of her symptoms.
Join us as we dive into the lab results, including the SIBO breath test, and explore the significant improvements and symptom resolution achieved through targeted treatments. We'll take a close look at the complete microbiome mapping results, revealing the patient's large bowel health and identifying key markers for inflammation and gut dysfunction.
Discover the crucial role of short-chain fatty acids and the impact of low butyrate production on gut health. Furthermore, we'll discuss the patient's SIBO breath test, uncovering the presence of methane-producing bacteria and its implications for treatment.
Find out the treatment plan we implemented, which included prebiotic low-FODMAP protocol, spore-based probiotics, herbal tinctures, digestive enzymes, and magnesium to improve bowel movements. Witness the patient's remarkable progress and the follow-up on her calprotectin levels, a key indicator of inflammation in the digestive tract.
Join us in this informative journey as we shed light on gut health, bacterial dysbiosis, and effective natural treatments for constipation and gut inflammation. Stay tuned for valuable insights and practical tips to address gut issues and enhance overall well-being.

I think that the success of treatment of this patient had a lot to do with you and the General Practitioner working together . It is so important for doctors to do this!
Wish you saw international patients! Great video.
Thanks 🙏 so glad it’s helpful
Hi Todd. Do you ever work with clients that have autonomic dysfunction - either as a root cause of digestive issues or as a result of digestive issues? If so, I wonder if you could make a video covering how treatment might change when the nervous system is a driving factor of dysfunction. Are there herbs that can be used to help the ANS?
Thanks in advance.

I would also be interested in this. I have a suspension that constipation is cause by poor vagus nerve function.
Very insightful from beginning to end! Thank you for sharing this case study. Looking forward to the next video! 💎
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you so much for sharing this case study! Have been suffering with methane dominant SIBO (max 80ppm) since last couple of years. Despite several attempts to keep the bowels moving, I do get into the mode of constipation once or twice a week..watching and treating the inflammation markers in the gut than always worrying about fighting the archaea was insightful.Looking forward to the next followup video. I live in US. Wish I could have a consultation with you!
So glad it was helpful! 80ppm is quite high, keep up the motility and BM support!!
@@ByronHerbalist I do plan to give Turkey Rhubarb a try! Will keep you posted. Best Regards.
@@supriyachinthavali391I’m also in US and I also wish I could have consult with Todd. My methane number is very similar to yours. What have you done different recently that has helped you the most? Did you try Turkey Rhubarb? Please give us some updates
@@supriyachinthavali391how did it work for you?😊
Sò glad there's a you, as I listen to this again. Yes, more videos!
Thanks Hannah! Appreciate you 😊 I’ve been head down in the clinic for the end of 2023 but have committed to more videos here for 2024!
Really appreciate your quality info. Thanks so much.
Glad it was helpful!
I found organic ghee to be the best because it’s natural and rich in butyrate acid while being a gentle lubricator of our colon. It’s also high in Omega 3,6 & 9 (I personally don’t eat fish anymore because of the micro plastic toxins scientists have found in the flesh of fish) so organic grass fed ghee has been a gift in my health 🙏
Where do you get it from?
@@johannab7715 you can easily make it yourself
Do you simply cook with it or do you take a tsp-full a day to see results?
Very, very informative. Wish you were available to those of us outside your country. It's great to get ideas on how to move forward, though, and just maybe a person could run with this much "light" and more becomes available as needed. It's certainly complicated, but you sound like you have the experience to be able to say what has brought about resolution. I will attempt to incorporate concepts mentioned. It's odd; I have taken paying courses, and would like to take more. But never learned the specific information given out on your channel, free. I am more than grateful to have found your videos.
Thanks for the great feedback!! So glad it’s helpful
You are awesome!! I need to find someone like you here in New Mexico!!
Thanks for the great feedback! I'm happy the videos are helpful
Wonderful video and so informative! I have a very similar problem as your patient and it's helpful to hear to hear how you are choosing to help treat her. I'm curious what would you recommend as a dose for turkey rhubarb and can it be taken every day or every other day, till you are able to start going? My GP has me on prescription strength stimulants, but I try not to take them often from fear of becoming dependent on them. Thank you so much for your informative videos and site for that matter. I really wish I could work with you, but I'm in the U.K.!
Great, great video. Do you work with patients in the usa?
Hi Todd. What are your thoughts on a negative SIBO test, but all the classics SIBO symptoms? Constipation, FODMAP intolerance, bloating, abdominal discomfort etc? What could be going on? Many thanks
You care more vs the GI dotor I'm currently seeing. She's all about ehat she thinks vs how I feel.
how you feel is the top priority. Everything else is just theory until it actually helps you get better!
Could you tell us what diet she followed during protocol?
I am just amazed with your work. I have constant heart burn no matter what I eat. I am guessing slow motility because it happens 2-4 hours after I eat. I have learned to stimulate my vagus nerve and that helps stop the burning. I just feel like my gut is inflamed. I do have a mold situation in my house that I am starting to fix. I have been on a low carb diet for over 6 months with no weight loss. I am about 75 lbs overweight and low carb has always been great for me. I have tried other types of diets and nothing is working anymore! It's a huge mystery for me!
Thanks for the kind words! Mould could be a driver here and worth exploring. I'm always quite surprised at how disruptive it can be on our body.
How would you suggest you approach your ND or Herbalist to use these tests/testing companies when they are set on who they use and at a much slower testing pace?
Amen. This whole thing is like a bad dream. Years of suffering and ive known the whole time in my heart that what is going on is treatable in some way. Years spent needlessly suffering cause everything is dictated by insurance companies and they are willing to keep you sick and miserable
Is there some one like you in y UK you can recommend?
Is it possible that the diaphragm sticks and if so, could that be a root cause of impeded bowel function? No one has suggested this to me. I am just wondering.
Great video. Calprotectin up around 250-300 is usually considered diverticulitis territory (in European labs) Crazy to think that a methane or hydrogen SIBO can cause that much inflammation.
Thanks for the info.
@ByronHerbalist hi Byron. Great video, what low fodmap prebiotic do you recommend?
Thank you for the video, it is very informative and useful. I have a question regarding turkey rhubarb and magnesium. So I used turkey rhubarb and it really helped me. However I stopped after 6 days of it working (I had it for 20 days but at first lower doses that did not really quite do the trick) because I was afraid of developing a dependency on it. Not that I thought I would, I just did not know if I would. I see you have your patient use it for 2-3 months. I would actually like to do that. What worked for me was 1500mg a day. Is that considered a moderate dose? I would take 500mg in the morning and 1000mg before sleep. I never tried just the 1000mg before sleep, so I think there is a possibility that could have worked. I am also curious to know more about how you use magnesium too, what dose is ok, for how long, what time of day to take it. Thank you very much!
Hey, do you still use it?
@@zahra9075 Hi! I never got back to using it. It worked really well as I said, but I felt like at the time I did not know how to design my own medium to long term program. I have tried Cleanse More product with Magnesium Oxide. It works but not as well as turkey rhubarb in my case
Which butyrate supplement? Thanks.
was she following an specific diet or just paying attention to some foods that could be causing symptoms?
@ByronHerbalist where in the UK can I find someone like you? 12months of the most severe constipation tried/done everything at my wits end… any pointers London UK
how many grams of the high dose magnesium do you use, and what type of magnesium? I have chronic constipation as well and I'm trying to solve it myself because here in Brazil we don't have these kind of tests, only hydrogen sibo breath test. it's frustrating to know that I have these issues for so long but I can't reach out for someone that really understands it to help. most functional doctors here just prescribe something for IBS and that's it. I feel fantastic when I have a good BM but the problem is that I don't have them, I think it's the puzzle that I need to solve to get back on track again.
Dear Todd
I'm trying to heal my gut and methane Sibo all by myself, following your instructions.
I've got really bad Rosacea and other skin issues and reacting to histomine,oxalates and salicylates badly. I decided to try full carnivore diet for two weeks. My BM has been nonexistent and I want to try your special prokinetic mixture. I'm wandering,do you think it's histamine friendly -ish? What do you think about carnivore diet and Sibo? Thank you. Much appreciated
Thanks for your comment! The tinctures can be quite poorly tolerated by histamine sensitive patients. I’m still trying to work that piece out. Carnivore is quite intense and can lead to an imbalanced microbiome in some but in others is helpful. I am very cautiously open minded here.
Ha! The carnivore diet didn't last long. The insane histamine reaction I was getting while on carnivore was crazy. Seems like I'm reacting to all of my Sibo herbals. My face is so swollen and itching like mad. What a fun
@@mishamudra7029I did keto, then carnivore for several YEARS. It’s hard to say since I have a history of autoimmune/digestive issues, but at first, I thrived on carnivore! Got muscled, strong, but my histamine intolerance got worse & worse. I loved it in some ways, bc I never did well with fiber, but I believe it wrecked my microbiome long-term & possibly led to SIBO.
What would be your suggestion for mcas
Thanks for your input! I’ve got a number of histamine videos and a few in the works! Check them out for more info on MCAS
Nice video.Do you know where in Europe can a microbiome stool test be done?
Not sure sorry
Do you ever see patients that have the classic methane sibo symptoms(constipation) but their breath test shows high hydrogen sibo instead? Do you treat these patients more like you would a traditional methane patient becasue of the constipation or dobyou treat for the hydrogen sibo?
yes this is uncommon but not unheard of. I would treat the symptoms and tackle the bugs with specific herbs
Do you prefer the complete microbiome mapping test from Nutripath or the one from microba??
I prefer Nutripath. There’s a video coming this week on that one!
Do you work online with overseas patients
It depends on your location and the condition. Unfortunately I can’t work with anyone in North America. Europe is easier and other places would be region by region and condition by condition. Shoot us an email on the website!
Do the orange bitters need to be immature? Having a hard time finding one that specifically says immature in a liquid
It can be a tough one to track down. Chinese herbalists will know it as Zhi shi and will be able to find it for you.
How do i work with you…i am in Florida
My results are showing Elastase, Secretory IgA being low and Occult Blood. This was requested by Naturopathic Doctor. I am meeting with my Medical Doctor who may refer to GI Specilist.
So glad you're on the right track!
How do you feel about using CBD for bowel inflammation?
I have seen good results with this approach in some
What kind of prebiotic you used
Yes, many of us have a dx of mcas.
My SIBO breath test years ago was very high mathane. I don't have a Dr to order another methane breath test.
PHGG here 😊
👏👏👏👏👏👏
