There's a 50:50 chance that you have this epidemic condition

There is a non-infectious epidemic occurring right beneath our noses. The likelihood that you are affected is around 50%. It's the epidemic of small intestinal bacterial overgrowth, or SIBO. In this episode of Defiant Health, I run through the rationale that reveals that, even conservatively estimated, more than 100 million Americans have this condition.Because of the natural permeability of the small intestine designed for nutrient absorption, invading fecal microbes that have ascended from the colon yield a phenomenon called "endotoxemia," or the entry of bacterial breakdown products into the bloodstream. This is how a disrupted small intestinal microbiome can be experienced as depression, anxiety, neurodegenerative disorders like dementia; heart problems such as coronary disease, atrial fibrillation, and congestive heart failure; skin issues such as as rosacea and psoriasis; muscle and joint issues such as fibromyalgia; gastrointestinal issues such as irritable bowel syndrome and Crohn's disease. Understand how to recognize this process and manage it and you have been given a huge advantage in regaining control over health. Support the showYouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@WilliamDavisMDBlog: WilliamDavisMD.comMembership website for two-way Zoom group meetings: InnerCircle.DrDavisInfiniteHealth.comBooks:Super Gut: The 4-Week Plan to Reprogram Your Microbiome, Restore Health, and Lose WeightWheat Belly: Lose the Wheat, Lose the Weight and Find Your Path Back to Health; revised & expanded ed
