SIBO & IBS Caused By VITAMIN DEFICIENCY?

Can SIBO, IBS & GERD be caused by a deficiency in thiamine (vitamin B1)? The answer is YES.

Almost every function of the gut requires input from the autonomic nervous system, and in the context of thiamine deficiency... this system becomes broken. Thiamine deficiency can cause:

Low stomach acid and gastric emptying
Low pancreatic enzymes
Poor bile flow
Slow intestinal motility
Lower brush border enzymes
Heightened gut inflammation

Elliot, you are Godsent; after learning about "Thiamine" watching your videos, I've started using Benfotiamine---and you know what? 10 years of my battle with Acid Reflux, Digestive disorders, lethargy, Low stomach acid, brain fog, severe Sinusitis, etc......etc.... just disappeared. Keep up the good work brother. May God bless you. I am planning to advance to TTFD from Thiamax

You have literally changed my life in one week. Every test under the sun, months off work leading to chronic depression and then I stumbled across this amazing video. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Vitamin D is also essential for gut biome modulation, along with B vitamins.

Also B1 REPELS BUGS!! Take it if you don't want mosquito bites

This probably applies to way more people than we think. I bet this is a widespread problem with so much processed carb and sugar consumption and poor diets and other modern lifestyle factors. Thank you for making this video.

I started the Benfotiame B1 Magnesium Spirulina & Potassium and my digestive problems are leaving & chronic vatigue and stomach pain has been leaving - I have had this problem for around seven years & my primary care physician said I was fine just low in B1 but he never told me the lack of B1 was the source of my chronic pain because he has no idea. U are an amazing doctor helping to heal so many suffering people.

Another symptom of SIBO may be histamine intolerance (as it was for me) because the bacteria in the small intestine are often histamine-producing bacteria. In my case, the combination of the histamine produced in the small intestine, plus histamine that occurs naturally in foods, and the histamine that the body itself produces overwhelmed my body's histamine-metabolizing ability. I cured it by adopting a keto/carnivore diet and taking HCl, and bile enzymes. Now I'm fine. I do, also, take a B-complex supplement. Hope this helps someone.

Seems like neither top down or bottom up but compounding issues that feed each other. The solution necessitates a multifaceted approach.

I just want to say how grateful I am to you for doing this video. I was diagnosed with SIBO three years ago. I was going through moments of depression, high anxiety, tiredness, brain fog, loss of balance, and constipation. I was looking through YouTube desperately looking for a way to heal myself. That's when I found your video! I have been taking B-1 for three weeks now and wow what a difference! Thank you so much, you have given me my life back!
