SIBO Treatment Pack Instructions
Protocol Instructions On The SIBO Treatment That Is Scientifically Proven To Be MORE Effective Than Prescription Antibiotics
SIBO Explained
SIBO stands for small intestinal bacterial overgrowth. It is defined as an increase in the number of bacteria, and/or changes in the types of bacteria living in the small intestines.
Normally bacteria are present throughout your entire digestive tract. Their existence and harmonious function within the human body is now recognized by science as a multi-tasking organ called the microbiome.
These beneficial bacteria assist in thousands of functions in the body from nutrient synthesis to immune system modulation.
In a typical healthy digestive tract the majority of bacteria live in the lower bowel. At least 1,000,000,000 bacteria per milliliter of fluid live in the colon. Fewer bacteria inhabit the small intestines, less than 10,000 bacteria per milliliter of fluid. The species of bacteria that live in the colon differ from the species that live in the small intestines. Imagine these ecosystems as drastically different from one another as the bottom of the Pacific Ocean is compared to the Sahara Desert.
SIBO occurs when bacteria begin to crowd and colonize the small intestines, often the bacteria that should normally be found in the colon migrate into and populate the small intestines. Rarely is SIBO caused by a single type of bacteria, rather it is an accumulation of various types of bacteria that shouldn’t be there.
With bacteria living in the small intestines the process of nutrient breakdown is occurring in the wrong place. This causes all sorts of health issues, such a bloating, heartburn, nausea, not to mention the inability to absorb the nutrients consumed. Over time mineral and nutrient deficiencies develop leading to a whole host of chronic conditions.

Healing From SIBO
If you suspect that you have SIBO do not take prebiotics.
Make sure the probiotics you are taking do not include prebiotics. This will aggravated SIBO by providing food for the bacteria living in the small intestines while encourage their continual growth.
Start by taking on a Low FODMAP Diet for 2 weeks, this will help you to gain control over the symptoms, and then move into the GAPS Protocol to start healing leaky gut.
Eat smaller meals. Over filling the stomach and having large amounts of food sit in the digestive system can aggravate the condition. Allow for longer periods between meals, fasting, and intermittent fasting to allow for the migrating motor complex to move food, debris, and bacteria through the small intestines.
Incorporating digestive supplements such as Betaine HCL and digestive enzymes can also be beneficial to help restore adequate gastric secretions to begin to properly assimilate nutrients.
SHOULD YOU USE ANTIBIOTICS?
Antibiotics are often used to treat SIBO, Rifaximin is the most common. However, studies show that despite treatment with antibiotics, recurrence develops in almost half of all patients within one year. (1)
Botanical antimicrobials, such as Neem and Berbaine, show better outcomes than pharmaceutical antibiotics. Researchers have even found that herbal remedies such as these are as effective as 3 courses of antibiotic therapy in patients who don’t respond well to Rifaximin. (2)
What studies and anecdotal evidence are showing is that treatment of the overgrowth alone is not enough for most people to make a long term recovery. Addressing the underlying cause, or predisposing factor, is necessary for a full sustained recovery.

Botanical Antimicrobials
That Work Better Than Pharmaceuticals Antibiotics
Berbacin Complex
This exclusively developed Berbacin Complex contains two herbal ingredients, Berberine and Allicin, blended together into one easy to take capsule formula.
There are two different types of bacterial overgrowth – hydrogen dominant and methane dominant SIBO. This is why we have blended the two scientifically proved natural antibiotics, Berbacin Complex addresses both types of bacteria at once.
Berberine is a natural compound found in certain herbs around the world. This extract is a specific treatment for the hydrogen dominant bacteria. Our Berbacin Complex provides 4000 mg of berberine a day which is the medically recommended amount for SIBO treatment.
Allicin is a compound found within garlic in very small amounts. We extract the equivalent of 60 garlic cloves of allicin for every Berbacin Complex capsule and this addresses any methane dominant bacteria.
PROTOCOL: Each bottle of Berbacin Complex contains 1 week of treatment. Take 2 capsules 4 times a day.
Neem Bacterial Cleanse
Accompanying the Berbacin Complex are capsules of our Neem Bacterial Cleanse. Neem is scientifically proven to enhance the effectiveness of both Berberine and Allicin in removing SIBO bacteria. This makes it a vital part of the treatment package to ensure the best result with Berbacin Complex.
Neem is a fever reducer, expels parasitic worms & anti-parasitic, antiseptic, anti-bacterial & anti-fungal. It is one of the most powerful natural herbal blood-purifiers & detoxifies known. It cools a fever & clears the toxins involved in most inflammatory skin diseases or those found in ulcerated mucous membranes such as the gut. Neem enhances overall health, improves immune system response & supports healthy bowel function.
PROTOCOL: Each bottle of Neem Bacterial Cleanse contains 2 weeks of treatment. 1 capsule four times a day.
Combining these two scientifically proven herbal extracts, Neem & Berberine, creates a formula that many studies have found to be MORE effective than prescription antibiotics in treating SIBO infection.
EM-Pro is a probiotic supplement that aids in the detoxification of the digestive system, helping to supply bio-available nutrients to the body while supporting the growth of beneficial microbes in the digestive system – it DOES NOT feed the SIBO bacteria.
The detoxifying agents (metabolites) include naturally synthesized vitamins, digestive enzymes, and other antioxidant compounds and the microbes that are known to break down various toxic compounds, for comprehensive digestive health. This prevents toxins and pathogens from contaminating and producing negative effects on the body while boosting the body’s ability to absorb nutrients and antioxidants.
