Hey guys, in this video we're going to talk about something called SIBO, small and

intestinal bacterial overgrowth, okay. Now some of the symptoms are

bloating because there's gas involved, methane gas, hydrogen gas, hydrogen

soft gas coming from an excess fermentation which is the microbes are

eating too much food and fiber. So you're going to have this gas which is going to

cause pain, so you have a lot of bloating, okay. Constipation sometimes, diarrhea

sometimes. Now here's what's causing this problem, okay. Normally this stomach is

supposed to be very acid between one and three and there should be no microbes

growing there, okay. There might be a couple of microbes but it's not going to be

that many. Same thing with a small intestine. This is not a place where you're

supposed to have a lot of microbial growth going on right here. Most of the

microbial growth should be in the large intestine, so we have the stomach, the

small intestine which is like 23 feet and then we have the large intestine which

is five feet, okay. This is where all the microbes are right here. So SIBO is where

the microbes are growing in the small intestine and sometimes even up into the

stomach, okay. Now if the stomach is very, very

acid that will kill off the microbes, so the deeper root cause to this problem,

most of the time it's low hydrochloric acid, okay. And that could come from

antibiotics, anti-acid, junk food, consuming too much alkaline water,

baking soda which is alkaline. All these scenes can neutralize the acid right here

and then what happens when the normal function of the acid is supposed to kill

a microbe in a food that you eat, it doesn't get killed, it passes on through
