ive been dealing with this for years & went to so many doctors for so long did so many tests, medications, procedures, etc. just started like 5-6 days ago and my mcas/hi went away, temp regulation issues, fatigue and so many more have gone away. my diet before all this was literally like 90% sugar, carbs & cigarettes. im so happy im finally recovering, mct oil oregano oil & turmeric have been great. going to start on my probiotics & boulardii maybe next week once i feel this is really gone. im never treating my body like that again man i literally thought i was going to die multiple times lol im 6ft and was 115 lbs at one point.
God bless anyone going thru this its so horrible
Sorry to hear this but glad you're improving. Best wishes in your health, RN

I’ve found this video to be SO HELPFUL!! I have spent months watching gut health videos and nothing has hit home with me and my specific issues. I now realise that I have SIFO and exhibit most of not all of these symptoms, especially the sugar cravings and consumption. I know it’s going to be hard to complete this but I want to be my healthiest version of me because my body deserves better. Thank you so much for this information! you are truly amazing and I appreciate all you have done! 😇

Thank you so much for watching and for your kind feedback! It means a lot to me.
This was an amazing tutorial on both SIFO and SIBO by addressing the root cause, symptoms, and treatments!
Thanks so much for watching! 😊
I am really impressed with this information. You give a better breakdown here than most doctors on UA-cam I've seen talk about the subject and it's really comprehensive. I took a stab at it and decided to go ahead and purchase the Berberine and enzymes to compliment the paleo diet I am on. Had heartburn and bloat afterwards so unfortunately it doesn't seem like this will be the right option for me. I'm reading a lot of the same in the comments, that is, of people with similar gut issues being unable to tolerate any supplements. I'm confused about why this is, since most natural doctors use supplements as part of their leaky gut regimen. I wonder what people who can't tolerate them do, and how they treat it.
I know you can't give any advice on here, but I'm putting this out anyway for the benefit of others. Seems like a lot of people are in my situation and have been beating their heads against a wall trying to figure it out, and like me, have seen doctor after doctor. The only thing that has worked for me so far is keeping up with a really strict paleo diet. Fortunately, my tolerances have increased so that I can include a full range of vitamins. Many supplements I still can't handle, though. I have no idea why. I will check out the site you recommended below,
www.ifm.org/ to see if I can find a good SIBO doctor. Personalized advice might be best. Again, thanks for all you are doing and love your channel :)
Thanks for your support!
I've been down a similar road to yours and still am for the most part. But I've also seen amazong results due to good life style amd eating habit changes too. it took 6 months but truly amazing what does happen. Here is some food for thought for you though. Paleo diet is good but can be tricky at times. you have to know what vegetables you can eat that dont cause problems for your digestion. For this I recommend learning about "The Plant Paradox". (a book) if you haven't already. this Dr recommends this book as well in her other videos. Also she said in her video a lack of acid in the stomach is the culprit for bad indigestion. So my guess is you could most likely be eating the wrong vegetables and getting a SIBO or SIFO digestion results (bloating, nausea, etc). because your small intestine has too much bacteria I'm it due to those afore mentioned conditions. On top of this the capsules that the berberiene etc come in, don't always digest easily if you have low stomach acid. So the combo of the wrong vegetables and low stomach acid could give you those issues you mentioned. Not guaranteed ofc but hope this helps you somehow. gl
Enjoyed learning about the differences listening the differences between SIBO and SIFO. Now i know which one I had Thanks!
That's great. Thanks for watching!
I think you just gave me the answer to my gut issue!! Thank you 🙏 Bless you!! 💕
Thanks so much for watching! 😊 Best wishes in your health, RN
Thank you so much. This and some other videos like the leaky gut showed me finally what's going on in my body and ,
where I was already afraid of, possibly not to be find in many test. My gp and the hospital had no clue. I am going to combine these vids and cut out what you advice. I was eating many of those fruit, vegetables and other stuff! Fingers crossed, starting this diet... NOW❤
Thanks so much for watching! 😊 Hope you see great progress in your health!
Wow!!! This is absolutely amazing information and presented in an easily understandable way. Thank you!
Thanks so much for your kind support! 🙏 I really appreciate hearing from you! Best wishes, RN
You are a breath of fresh air Dr. R. as another person has said I wish you were my Dr too. Thanks for all the important information you explain so exceptionally well.
God bless you.
Thanks so much for your kind words and support !
Thank you so much for this informative information. I have been researching this for over 6 months and by far your video does the best in explaining what is going on. It is so detailed! I have been dealing with this candida yeast problem for over 2 years. I keep getting sinus infections all the time and my old doctor kept putting me on antibiotics, I would get yeast infections and now I am resistant to Diflucan. I crave sweets and complexed carbohydrates and she blamed it on my pre-diabetes. I also have asthma and know that the inhaler - Symbicort contributes to yeast overgrowth. I have been whining myself off of it for the past 5 months. I am down to One puff - every other day. I have gut issues and it hurts when I eat food. I thought I was losing my mind due to depression, brain fog, fatigue and all the other symptoms I am experiencing. But now I know that I am not crazy!!! This gives me hope I can beat this. I am going to request the doctor does a stool analysis and see it they can refer me to a gastro doctor to do the Duodenal Aspirate. So thankful for doctors that treat the problem and not just symptoms! I am changing my diet immediately and getting the supplements you suggested as well. God bless you! 🥰
Thank you for watching. Best wishes in your healing!
Hi white house, I really hope you are doing better. I have have been having severe symptoms and my quality I life is not that great. Can you please share with me, how you are doing and did the supplements help for you? I would really appreciate your response. Thank you.
@@rubythecraftgirl7097 Hello Ruby, I finally found a Gastro doctor who was able to diagnose what I was experiencing. I had a colonoscopy and endoscopy. I have gastritis and SIBO. The inflammation is from too much acid in my stomach, and I have a bacterial infection in my intestines. I am waiting for prescriptions to be delivered from the pharmacy so I can start feeling better. I am also in the process of delimiting high acid foods from my diet. Thank you for checking in on me, it means a lot!

Oh, wow. I have those discoloration dots on my skin and other symptoms as well. Had a lot of dental work in the past that required antibiotics. Having a sweet tooth and not knowing about gut was a recipe for disaster. I also have a white discoloration on my fingernail. As my nail grows its moving up. I've read that could be a sign as well.

Thanks for your support Trevor! Appreciate your watching.
I have been battling with something for 4 years now. I got a joint infection from shoulder surgery for which i was given alot of penicillin and clindamicyn over quite a few weeks. During this time i started getting hundreds of heart palpitations daily (which have been tested and thought ro be benign) followed quickly by quite extreme constipation. (I had a colonoscopy and it was excruciating despite the drugs). I was taking over a week between bowel movements. I then cleaned up my diet (mostly paleo but included porridge as it helps me have a bowel movement. I have had bouts of scaley flakey skin patches on my head, brain fog, fatigue, blurred vision, depression, anxiety, all things I'd never experienced.. The worst is i have recently developed athritis in my knees and fingers. Im a very fit and athletic 33 year old man. This video has given me a new avenue to explore when my doctors have given me nothing at all.
I'm so sorry to hear this. I hope your health improves! Best wishes, RN

Hi Doctor. For the first time ever. This is the best video on Cadida and Sibo. Most Doctors still don't agree that either exists. I want to tell you my story, and see if you can offer me any advice. I'm 72. And I have been sick and getting worse for over 40 years. It all started with endometriosis. I had a full hysterectomy at 32. It took 5 years of tests and treatments, to be told I have M.E/CFS. I was so ill for many years. I then went private and was told I had Candida. A year of fasting restricted diet, supplements, probiotics and cleansing. I got a little better for a while. I cut out dairy, wheat, sugar. I ate loads of fresh food. Fish and chicken. Nuts and seeds. But I was never really well. And that's how I lived. Then over the years I was treated with antibiotics on and off for a bacteria in my gut. And years of antifungal drugs. I always watched what I ate. 7 years ago I was treated for breast cancer. Surgery and radiotherapy. I had side effects that left me with Fibromyalgia. Always in pain and I'll. Living on painkillers. I live in the UK. I found a functional medicine Doctor in London, Harley street. I had tests. She found I have Sibo, Adrenal fatigue, Mitchocondria dysfunction and so on. We tried supplements that I couldn't take, as I have bad reactions to every thing that went in my gut. I also had Low dose Neltrexon for my fibromyalgia. I couldn't go back to see her because of lockdown and Covid. So after a few months, I started to see a gastroenteroligist near where I live. He said I had really bad IBS and flatulence. He treated me for Sibo, with Rifaxamin. I had to pay, as I couldn't get it on the NHS. I felt much better for a short time. But I had lost so much weight in such a short time. I went back several more times, but he had no idea what was wrong with me. I had Rifaxamin again, but it made me really ill this time. Another visit, and I had lost more weight. He said I need to send you for a CT scan. It showed a problem with my spleen and both my lungs. I then had to have a Pet Scan. It showed some thing not right. I was sent to a lung specalialist. It showed my spleen , stomach and bowels are clear. But I have tumers in both my lungs. And she thinks I have breast cancer again. But with out biopsy she couldn't be sure. I said no, I'm very sick. I have lost about 2 stone or more. My guts are in he'll. I have headaches dry flaky skin, in allergic to every thing that goes into my gut. I told her I have IBS, Fibromyalgia. I also have Sibo,Candida, and leaky gut. She said I don't know how to treat you, only with surgery, chemo and radiotherapy. I said no. Conventional treatment has nearly killed me. I said I would try holistic treatment. But I can't find any one. So I'm trying to research and treat my self, through diet, supplements, probiotics, herbalvremedys for sibo, Candida and leaky gut. I still can't put weight on. But in the mean time I have had Covid. I'm totally exhausted and in constant pain, as it's triggered my fibro and CFS. Also my gut problems, as I was so sick for a week that all I could eat was fruit, home made juice, soups and smoothie. I have tried to contact a compounding pharmacy for Low dose Neltrexon,. For my fibromyalgia again, and through research I read it helps to stop some Cancers. I'm in such a mess, I can't find any one to help me. Can you give me any help please. Thank you in advance. I think God sent you to me. Eileen. X
Thank you for watching and for your kind feedback. I'm sorry to hear about your health journey. Unfortunately, I can't offer advice here. It's best to find an integrative/ functional medicine provider to give you personalized guidance. You can search for a provider here: ifm.org. Best wishes for your healing, RN
when doing everything right and still not better search for the cause. environmental toxic exposure may be to blame. mycotoxins from mold exposure, Lyme disease, heavy metals, parasites, viral load, and a slew of other chemicals we live with on a daily basis. also note fungus growing in the lungs looks very similar to cancer on x-ray. hope this helps and gives you other areas to look to find the cause. real healing cannot be had without finding the real root cause. note usually for alot of people it is a combination of several of the toxic things I mentioned
@@jennyerxleben504 Thank you so much, that's all very interesting. I haven't been able to find a functional practitioner who will take me on in the UK. Bless you.
I am so sorry to hear about all of your problems. I have a very sensitive body to everything as well and now I am learning that I think I have high histamines due to my gut bacteria so maybe that something you should try as well. Maybe look into how to lower your histamine levels and get your gut bacteria healthier so that you aren’t reacting so strongly to everything.
@@barlowwe Hi there. I'm also sorry to hear your also very sensitive. I have been on a low histamine for months. But it's also thought I may have mast cell activation syndrome. All the drugs that my Doctor has given me usually makes he ill. Even natural things makes me ill. In fact every thing that goes in my stomach has made me ill for nearly 5 years. I have lost so much weight. My GI Doctor is rubbish. In the new year I'm hoping to see a functional doctor. In the UK where I live , it's almost impossible to find some. But having cancer to battle with as well. We are suffering still with long Covid, for 9 months. I wish you luck.
Best explanation i have heard on this condition, my son is suffering from this has had the stool test that proves it. It's very hard to get through to Doctor's that this is the case, luck have one switched on Dr that did the stool test. My son has Down Sydrome n can not tell us what's wrong, so this test has been of great value to me. It's so good to finally find a video on this subject so we'll explain, so now I can play it for people n Dr's so my son can get the help he needs. Thank you, thank you a hundred times over.

Hey there. Disregard my previous comment. I finally tried the digestive enzymes once again. Since my first reaction was so strong, I wondered if it was just too high in strength for me. I'm not sure how the dosing works for these capsules but I'm sure much of it is trial and error based on the patient's specific needs. I opened the capsule and shook out about 1/4th of its contents into a glass of water, drank it slow. I did this right before I ate and later that night, I realized there was a noticeable difference in my mood and digestion. The ibs and heartburn was much more mild, and they continued to improve over the past couple of days. My mood also improved, almost upon the moment that I took the enzymes. I'm going to follow your suggestion to introduce one supplement at a time. So FYI for anyone struggling who has tried any of your supplements and been unable to tolerate them- TRY BREAKING THEM UP. Shout out to those who are struggling! Lol. I'm surprised no one has suggested that. Don't assume they don't work. There is something called an adjustment period anyway from what I've read, so 'some' reaction to the capsules are normal :)
Thanks for sharing your insights

Good to see you here and instagram Dr. Rajsree. These are awesome videos. Also can I take Creon in lieu of the digestive enzymes you recommended? Is it okay to take 2-3 pills of 36,000 units per meal? Looks like Creon is weight based.

Dear Doctor, thank you for the very informative video! Could you please advise if there is Leaky Gut and SIBO & SIFO - which protocol to start with or combine them - how long to follow each? Can collagen peptides can heal gut lining instead bone broth - what is the difference between them? Thank you very much!
Great question! I am filing my newest video today. It will be on my Herbal Protocol for SIBO. This protocol would also work for SIFO and Leaky Gut so stay tuned! Collagen peptides alone cannot heal the gut, but is a good source of easily assimilated protein.

Since quinoa is a grain; we recommend avoiding while treating and it can be added back later. Thanks for watching!

Thank you so much for your detailed and easy-to-follow videos. I've watched the SIBO and SIFO...and I feel I may have both going on...and may have a hiatal hernia too. I'm doing most of the things you mentioned above and ACV too. Yesterday, I took a few of the things at once and had a pretty intense reaction (I then saw you recommend adding them one at a time). But...here is my question... I passed a bunch of dark gall stones yesterday! I've had some discomfort there and wondered if my gallbladder might be part of the problem. I just got blood work and everything liver related is normal, including my bilrubin. My blood is all good too (not anemic but I was very anemic a couple of years ago). Should I just keep doing what I'm doing? I suppose it's good these stones are passing (they are fairly small...doesn't seem like anything is being blocked). Are gall stones often released when doing this protocal? I do have a naturopath, but he hasn't mentioned any of this stuff yet. Thank you for any info!
Thanks for watching. I'm not sure about gallstones being released during the treatment. I suppose it's possible. Thanks for watching and best wishes in your health, RN
I ordered the digestive enzymes and the Berberine . . . I think both are giving me heartburn. Perhaps this is the key- to add them one at a time? I've gotten my ibs symptoms into almost total remission by following a very strict paleo diet. I suppose we're just not ready for them yet. Perhaps you need to wean off the stomach meds first, be on the paleo diet for awhile and then slowly start adding the supplements . . . one at a time.
@@brookealiasemeraldfox8192 sorry to hear. yes it's good to try one at a time
@@drrajsree thank you doctor :) Appreciate it.
If it weren't for youtube, I'd never get a proper diagnosis. My Dr is clueless. I've had this for 2 months now.

Good morning!
I have 2 questions, is eating a lot of avocados okay in this diet? Also, I noticed you said it is a treatable condition, does that mean it is not curable and you just have to upkeep with the diet for the rest of your life?
Thank you so much for your videos! They are truly a blessing😊
Avocados are fine and I recommend them. They have good fats and fibers that help to keep you feel full. Yes it's curable, which is good news! After a while the diet can be liberalized if the microbiome balance is restored. Thanks for your kind support, your words mean a lot to me!
Great question
@@karabo8847 thanks for watching
Thank you for a nice video. I am almost sure that I have candida+sibo+sifo. In order to live a normal life I can eat only very basic foods on paleo diet (otherwise I would have teriblle joint paint). Despite being on very strict diet for many years I still have skin problems. I cannot add other products because my skin problems would be really bad. Also, I cannot go to even stricter diet, because then I am losing weight very quickly and not getting enough calories (I also react to higher amounts of fat). Another problem, that I cannot take any probiotics or supplements (oregano oil., etc.), because I react to them too. I am thinking to try digestive enzymes.
Thanks for watching. I’m very sorry to hear your struggles. It’s best if you can get the personalized guidance of a provider knowledgeable in these conditions. You can search for providers here: IFM.org Best wishes, RN.
I have the same problem. Any kind of natural supplement I add messes me up. I also am on a very strict paleo diet. I've gotten the ibs symptoms into remission with it. The diet sucks. I suppose I may have to live with it indefinitely.

Poderia colocar legenda em portugues!!!!!!!
Great suggestion.
I have had this for years and years. I have completed a total fasting detox of 14 days three times over the years, but the candida is still with me. There are many Candida treatments like your out there, but none mention if we can ever go back to a normal diet with bread and cake and wine or if we have to eat lean proteins leafy greens and water for the rest of our lives??
Once you heal you may able to reintroduce
@@drrajsree That's not true. Once you have Candida, it never goes away completely. You have to maintain the diet for the rest of your life. Once you heal, you will not have to be as AGRESSIVE with your diet, but you will still have to maintain some sort of candida diet to KEEP it away.
This question is what I always wanted to know...
My gut feeling sadly though is that I will have to always be wathcing and cautious of what I eat for the rest of my life to keep candida away...
@@girlygirl1890you always have candida, when you balance other healthy bacteria you can re introduce food again. Don't say it isn't true when you don't know what you're talking about.
@@Nicfasts You say... "You can introduce food again." Okaaay... Try introducing tons of carbohydrates, and unhealthy processed foods, plenty of macaroni and cheeses, mashed potatoes, lots of breads, candy, and other bad stuff regularly. They arrrre foods...AS YOU SAY. And see how THAT works out for you. (lol) ....Eat those bad things after balancing the healthy bacteria. Get back with me after doing that and you will see that I know EXACTLY what I am talking about - and that's a FACT. Bless your little heart because obviously YOU are the one that doesn't have a clue! (lol)
I love your videos, I would like you to make a video for us about the symptoms of enzyme deficiency and the symptoms of decreased intestinal motility, for example dyspepsia, I eat and after two hours I feel abdominal swelling, and I would like you to Will you address that topic, thanks.
My upcoming video is my herbal protocol for SIBO that addresses all of this! Stay tuned.
Thank you so much for this informative video.
Thanks so much for watching!
Great videos! Thanks!
Thanks so much for watching! 😊
and more than ones 🙂@@drrajsree
Such great information - thank you!! Can I eat white basmati rice with this diet? I remember you mentioning it in the SIBO video.
For candida and SIFO I recommend avoiding rice since carbs feed the fungal growth. Thanks for watching!
Thank you for your response. I think I have found some one.
Thanks for watching.
Lots of insights here. Please could do a video on ulcer and H. Pylori
Thanks for the suggestion!
Rajsree I m so grateful for all the information you share by this channel it s so useful, I m Integrative Nutritionist as well in Spain, your advices resonate me as the way I treat to patients , many thanks !!
Thanks so much for watching! It's really great to hear from you in Spain! I'd love to visit Spain someday. I've heard it's a beautiful country! Best wishes, RN

Great explanation I really understand how are digestive system.
Thanks for watching!
Thank you for this video 🙌
Thanks for watching!
@@drrajsree hey just wondering would you ever prescribe your patients to take Nystatin to clear candida in the gut maybe it could help clear it quicker
@@BIFTYTIME That would work for oral thursh.... but for SIFO, nystatin is not as effective. It would have to be fluconazole but that is hard on the liver, so I usually don't prescribe this and prefer herbals.
Brilliant information! Thank you
Thanks so much for watching! 😊
Thank you so much for all the great information. I'm just wondering what is the first thing someone can do to start finding out what is going on with there bodies, if they have these symptoms. Can we do testing through your office or would I have to do it in an office around my location?
You might want to find a functionalmedicine provider who can provide you with the testing. You can search on IFM.org
Thank you for all
Thanks so much for watching! 😊
Thank you for your awesome explanation 🙏
Thank you so much for watching.

Hi Dr Rajsree! I really appreciate all of the incredibly informative content you share on your socials. I especially love your UA-cam videos that make it super easy to understand gut and hormone health! I recently took a GI map through a dietitian and my results showed significant Candida and bacterial overgrowth. My dietitian said she could either “prescribe” antimicrobials to treat these overgrowths or I could seek out a provider to prescribe me prescription antibiotics and an anti fungal. What would be your recommendation here? Thanks so much!
Generally my first preference is herbal antimicrobials as described in this video. Only with severe symptoms that don't respond to the herbals do I prescribe fluconzaole. Thanks so much for watching! 😊
What a great video! Thank you 👍 what are your thoughts on Nystatin?
Thanks so much for watching. Unfortunately nystatin only works for oral thrush. It’s not effective in SIFO. Fluconazole would work, but not good for liver when used longer.
Thank you for the response! In the case of SIFO and SIBO both being present, which do you treat first?
@@saracooper5972 The great thing is the herbal protocol works for both!
Thanks a lot, these informations mean a lot!
Thanks for watching!
@@drrajsree Mam, keep helping us with such eye-opening informations.
Very informative and helpful video.
Thank you so much!
Great video! How paleo diet can be adjusted for people with high cholesterol? Thank you 🙏🏻
You can choose leaner proteins like fish, chicken. Good fats like avocado and olive oil are fine. Thanks for watching!
Ty so much for this and being honest ty again appreciate u
Thanks so much for watching!
it is very helpful
Thanks so much for watching! 😊
I love your teaching. Found you recently.
I am all ears to your words of knowledge and wisdom.
Thank you kindly for your support!
Thank you Dr. Rajsree, Could you give us a list of food that you can eat for this protocol so we can make our own recipes? I eat a lot of avocado and sweet potatoes, is that ok? What other food can I eat please if you can provide a short list of food besides wild fish and chicken? How to take the supplements, how many times a day with or without food etc. Thank you so much!
Avocados are fine. Small amount of sweet potatoes are fine. Most vegetables are fine. On my supplement store there is details on how best to take the supplements:

Rajsree Greatful for your videos. Gives immense hope to the suffering ones. We came to know about functional/ integrative method of treatment only through your videos. Are perianal abscess / fistulas curable through functional approach?
Thanks for watching. Yes often when we figure out the root cause it can prevent recurrences and help the body to heal.
Hi Dr! Thanks for the video! Do you have any specific dosages of herbs for SIFO treatment? I took high doses of berberine (4grams), garlic, oregano oil, pau d`arco, cloves all these at once and it made my candida worse. My maine syptoms are white tongue and bad breath which I try to get rid of for some time. I also took probiotics, guar guam, psylium husk, GSE, black wallnut, HCL&enzimes, biotin, even activated characoal. Probably too much at once that`s why I ask. Thanks in advance.
Thanks so much for watching! 😊 You might also like my video on my Herbal Protocol for SIBO, which also applies to SIFO (just add S. boulardii probiotics) , which you can find here:

@@drrajsree welcome. thank you for the info.
Thank you for the video I have same symptoms as you mentioned. Is this medicines will be delivered to Canada?
I apologize we only ship within the US at this time.
Thank you so much for this video! I have been struggling, in and out of hospitals the last 2 years. Negative SIBO breath test but positive test for yeast/candida overgrowth. My main issue has been that my body hasn't been able to retain phosphorous and potassium. Is this something that has happened to anyone else??? I'm currently even being studied by a branch of the NIH because of how apparently rare this is.
Sorry to hear this. Hope your health improves. RN
Is biofilm buster needed for SIFO/ Candida? If so which one ?
Digestive Enzyme Pro as well as the herbs themselves (Candida Support or Berberine, Oregano, and Allicidin) all serve as Biofilm busters. You could also take additional NAC to break up biofilms.
Here's a link to our NAC:

That was a great video and easy to understand! Though the drawing hand is distracting and I think the video would be just great without it.
Do you treat patients with MCAS?
Thanks so much for watching. I have a recent video on histamine intolerance, which also touches on MCAS.
very clear and interesting
Thanks for watching!
I love all the videos that you had created thats why I shared to my friends and family.
I would like to inquire if it is possible to have a check up online or by email as I am hypothyroid after the Radioactive iodine treatment and still I felt everything is uncomfortable especially everytime I eat dairy and coconut milk and gluten. Please can I email you Dra.?
Sorry I’m not accepting new patients at this time. You can search for a provider with similar knowledge on IFM.org.
Thanks for watching!
Hello Doctor,
I have been a patient for more than 2 decades with endless episodes and ppi for almost 10 yrs and no findings convincing me that’s something off in my mind.Your videos gave me hope and courage to keep going.
Unfortunately I am located in India and donot have access to you and your medicines .
Luckily I found a functional practitioner in country and she diagnosed me with having SIBO and SIFO Both along with Clostridium.
I have started the medicines but unfortunately not able to tolerate Nystatin for SIFO.
Need your help here for fungal medication.
Your videos
Hopefully you can find similar herbal antimicrobials for SIFO like Berberine and Oregano + S. boulardii probiotic yeast.
Best wishes in your healing, Rajsree
Hey, would you please let me know which functional doctor you had visited in india?
Hello and thank you Dr Nambudripad,
Can the SIBO and Candida/SIFO protocols can be done together?
Yes they can! Thanks so much for watching! 😊 You might also like my video on my Herbal Protocol for SIBO, which you can find here. TO additionally treat SIFO/ Candida, I would add the S. boulardii probiotic.

Thank you! I have all the herbal products in my cart ready to order! @@drrajsree
Thank you so much. its very helpful. i think this is the problem, i need to check with my gut. With my health i see that whenever i drink lemon water in early morning, it improves digestion plus symptoms related with Urology. It took 2 3 months to improve. But when i stopped it starts rising again. I think i should stop sugar., Tea. it just lemon water, that improves everything in my digestion.
That's great! Thanks for watching and best wishes in your health, RN
Its one one the best video explaining the issue and Way to ger rid of it.. I am still dont understand why my face and hair are so oily.. Taking suplements, vitamins, probiotics, on diet,
Thanks so much for watching! 😊 Excess oil could be related to hormones.
Hi Dr. RN,
I was wondering if you may have heard anything about Kolorex (Horopito herb) and using that in conjunction with your Oregano oil/Berberine/Allicin combo?
Lastly, for your patients in clinic who do your herbal protocol for Candida, do you know how long typically it takes to notice symptom improvement? And if we don’t improve within a month, does that mean the protocol isn’t working and we should try other herbs?
No I haven't heard of that herb. Thanks so much for watching! 😊
Yours are the Best videos on sifo & sibo, thank you so much!
I've just started your protocol, after a week I feel so much worse, can it be intolerance of oregano, any tips on how to differentiate it from die off? What can I replace oregano with or will berberin & allicidin do the job ?
Also, is this protocol ok if I have gastritis?
Would be great if you could reply! Thanks in advance 👍
Sorry to hear this. Have you taken Digestive Enzyme Pro with the herbs? Often it improves toleration of the herbs such as oregano. If not you could just take Berberine + Allicidin and likely would still see significant progress.
@@drrajsree thank you so much for replying! 👍 Yes, with enzymes it's slightly better but I still burp oregano & taste it hours after I took it. Is turmeric or lemon grass oil a good replacement for it please ? Thanks in advance.
Hello Dr., would it be possible to do a video on Rosacea ?
Great suggestion; yes it is tied into the gut microbiome.
That would be wonderful. Thank you.
Excellent video. Question please: If SIBO/SIFO are suspected, is it OK to consume mushrooms, or would that be contra-indicated? Thank you so much.
Mushrooms are typically high FODMAP so can make bloating worse in SIBO.
@@drrajsree
Thank you for the reply, Doctor. Appreciate your time and intereest. All the best.
