349: Small Intestine Bacterial Overgrowth Testing + Natural SIBO Treatment Options (PART 2) w/ Dr. Ken Brown

The Healthy Skin Show

Ever wonder what insights could be gained from small intestine bacterial overgrowth testing when you’ve got IBS gut symptoms?
Last week, Dr. Ken Brown and I discussed various reasons why Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is a problematic diagnosis that has become a “catch-all” for any digestive symptoms. We also spoke about how SIBO inflammation can spread to other body systems including skin rashes like rosacea.
In today’s episode, we will dive into the reason why small bacterial overgrowth testing should be run by gastroenterologists. AND how it can lead to clarity on the type of SIBO you’re struggling with (and may explain your constipation or diarrhea). Plus, SIBO constipation can lead to unwanted side effects that, unfortunately, worsen long-term constipation!
And if you are struggling with SIBO symptoms and want to know how to get better, we’ll also dive into conventional and natural SIBO treatment options.
My friend and SIBO expert Dr. Ken Brown is back for Part 2 of this interview! He’s a board-certified gastroenterologist and has been in practice for over 15 years with a clinical focus on inflammatory bowel disease and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Known as the host of the podcast “Gut Check Project”, Dr. Brown’s mission is to bridge the gap between medical & natural science, leading to attainable improvements in quality of life for all.
For over a decade, he conducted clinical research for various pharma companies but is now focused on natural solution product development for KBMD Health and KBS Research. Dr. Brown has a clinical and research practice based in Plano, Texas. And he is the creator of ATRANTIL, this FIRST proven solution for IBS and bloating, now available in over 20 countries.
In This Episode:

• Methane versus hydrogen gas production (and associated SIBO symptoms)
• Can laxatives improve SIBO constipation?
• Can you become addicted to laxatives?
• Conventional and natural SIBO treatment options
• Benefits of polyphenols in a SIBO diet
• How Atrantil could help your SIBO symptoms (as an alternative SIBO treatment option)

Quotes
“If somebody comes in and they sound like SIBO, and they eat a meal, and they bloat, that tells me that there's SIBO going on in the small bowel.”
“If we were to look at what makes vegetables and fruits healthy for you, we know that they have insoluble fiber, they do have some vitamins, but the primary reason is these polyphenols, the things that make the fruits and vegetables colorful.”
