Show Notes

Overuse of herbal antimicrobials in a quest to get SIBO breath test results to normalize can cause bad effects for patients. I share a case study illustrating how this practice led the patient to develop C. difficile infection. I also share the results of two studies comparing probiotics to the antibiotic Rifaximin for IBS and SIBO that suggest probiotics are similarly effective. https://drruscio.com/overuse-of-herbal-antimicrobials-probiotics
