I'm so glad you mentioned not over-relying on tests! All too often, people and their functional doctors get attached to the idea of improving test metrics and miss how the person is feeling.

[@DrRuscioDC]

EXACTLY. That's one of the main things I'm trying to help people avoid. So glad that messaging is coming through.

[@leannshort2211]

YES!!!! Saving me TONS of $$$ in the process!!! These endless tests are not needed!! Extremely grateful for all the valuable information Dr. Ruscio provides! ❤️❤️

I almost have no digestive symptoms, but all of the systemic ones. I can literally feel the inflammation throughout my whole GI tract with 60% of the things i eat.

[@DrRuscioDC]

I'm sorry to hear that. I hope this video gives you somewhere to start! And please follow up with how it goes

[@lopamudrarana7169]

I too had these similar symptoms. But found great relief after switching to HAIP Diet. You should try it to.

[@Lolipop59]

What is HAIP DIET please?​@@lopamudrarana7169

The anti-inflammatory antibiotic Rifaximin also decreases leaky gut by downregulating TLR-4. The probiotic blend used in the study is "Lactibiane Tolerance" and the study was sponsored by the manufacturer Pileje.

There are a number of antibiotics with significant anti inflammatory properties. Doesn't mean it is a good idea to take them unless there is no better choice

Doctor iv just started probiotic . Saccharomyces boulardii +mos manno oligosaccharides . Im feeling fantastic after only one . With intermittent fasting . Very long history of Terrible eczema . And all ready showing improvement. . I was wondering could you recommend any thing for psoriasis as my grandmother been suffering from it from the age of 18 after nearly drowning. Extreme stress brought it on the day after was covered head to toe any help would be great id like to recommend what im trying but not educated enough to know if its good or not

[@Want2cJesus]

Raw milk kefir with its 56 living strains of probiotics literally changed my life 15 years ago. I still drink it almost every day. I recently added L-Gasseri and L-Reuteri "yogurt" to my diet. Game changers! It feels so good to feel good 😉

[@TheFivestringmike]

Which brands of these probiotics are best to use?

[@DrRuscioDC]

So I have my own line, which you can access right below the video. But you can also find great options at Target, Walmart, Whole Foods, etc. Just look for the strains and doses covered in the video, and try to watch out for added fillers (like sugars, a high prebiotic count, etc.) Hope that helps!

[@didkichh]

Nice video again. Posting comment for 1st time. So, I recently started a protocol to restore intestinal flora and nasal flora, but before the start of the protocol itself I had to cleanse the intestinal tract with the laxative lacthiol (E966), I take live bacteria in liquid form - bifido blend and another blend of 12 different ones strains - lacto, bifido, streptococci, etc., alternating the different blends and taking them before the main meal. I just want to say that the effects of probiotics and improvement in my condition have been felt since the second day of taking it or as they said from the company I bought the probiotic kit from - there is no way 15 milliliters of probiotics can fight 2 kilograms of bacteria in the gut - it will take an awful lot of time, apparently and for this you need to cleanse the intestines before starting to load with new and living bacteria.

[@BrandonWIlliams-ep4ri]

Triple therapy probiotics and following a low Fodmap diet, using monash app has helped considerably. Can’t Believe I don’t have constant GI issues. Very thankful for you and your clinic.

How are you now

[@sevdasdf4041]

After using probiotics and get healthy what we should do to save our health?we should stop probiotics and go on which diet?or when we should start probiotics again?🙏🏻

[@jayalexandertilley]

A whole food plant based diet as much as you can. Eating a lot of fresh, living foods (raw fruits and veggies, nuts and seeds, herbs and greens especially). Probiotics can be helpful across the lifespan, you can use them alongside a healthy diet, or as a supplement occasionally, or you can just focus on getting a lot of foods that have good probiotics in them (yogurt (there is great vegan yogurt), sauerkraut, kimchi, tempeh, kombucha, pickles, any fermented food, or raw organic fruits and veggies, which also will contain pre-biotics which feed the probiotics. Hope that helps.

[@osama1636]

Stick with organic food and also fermented foods. Make sure your diet is full of green vegetables and healthy fats/meat. With time, you can introduce other items like dairy.

All those veggies they talk about hurt my stomach with the high amount of oxalates they have. Plus I lost a lot of strength and energy going plant based.

[@leannshort2211]

I had to do FC Cidal and Dysbiocide herbals before the probiotics though, I had to do multivitamin, minerals, electrolytes, copper, and digestive enzymes and Betain hcl as well. I had to do stress support like B1 (dr berg loves b1), I LOVE B1 benfotiamine! micronutrient brand, and I had to do niacinamide and sometimes seeking health adrenal cortex to heal. ***Nutrition,Digestion,Herbal-Antibiotics- Stress/Genetics support, and finally probiotics and prebiotic foods.

What if I have candidiasis in gi track would a protocol of probiotics like this work or do I need to kill the fungus first with antibiotics?

[@Bryndezy]

Antibiotics are not effective for fungal infections.

[@jayalexandertilley]

Great video. A diverse, regulated and cared for community inside of us is exactly as important and necessary (and currently under threat right now) as a diverse, regulated and cared for community outside of us. Remember what goes on inside is analogous to what we see happening in the world around us. The protocol/approach requires the same wisdom.

[@chalvin1]

I am cauiously optimistic. I have had intense skin issues, flare-ups, intense redness/flaking on face, scalp, and chest for a good 15+yrs. I started taking your lacto and soil based blend and followed your dose recommendation somewhere in the last 6months-1 year. I still have bloating, but all the sudden i realized my skin issues have reduced a lot. Foods that would normally give me serious skin issues don't really seem to cause much of an issue now. I cant be 100% sure its the probiotics but I cant really attribute it to anything else. Oddly enough my diet has been very little veggies/more unhealthy in the time that i showed improvement. I can only pray that things keep going in this direction b/c the strict diet stuff had consumed my life for years. I cant tell you what a quality of life improvement it is to be able to eat more foods again, minus the skin issues. Literally its life changing. I cannot thank you enough, I do believe the probiotics have helped push my body in this improved direction. I'm sending you a big bear hug 🤘🙏 🥲

I would like to know whether the probiotics improved T-reg dysfunction. This is known to increase gut permeability.

[@DrRuscioDC]

I believe they do, not 100% on this off the top of my head, but would be surprised if they did not know how much they impact the immune systems and leaky gut (many studies finding resolution of leaky gut, so it makes T reg a bit moot).

Great video. Thank you for the info. Was curious if the study said that the subjects had changed their diets in any way ?

[@DrRuscioDC]

Love that you're looking out for healthy user bias! The study did not mention a change to diet though :)

[@phil-spinelli]

how do these Probiotics stay active and survive the stomach acid?

[@DrRuscioDC]

Great question and this is one I get a lot. I covered some research a couple of months ago that actually showed that even heat-killed probiotics still provided benefit, so the "live" part of probiotics may not be as crucial as we had thought. You can watch that video here to get the details: kzbin.info/www/bejne/o5nViHukhNKcf68 An additional thought is that there's a sizable body of research demonstrating benefits of non-enteric-coated probiotics. And my thinking here is if they didn't work, the research would reflect that. So I think we can be much less strict about probiotics. :)

[@dianakhachaturyan7971]

@Dr.RuscioDC, thank you for this video! I have a question regarding weight changes while taking probiotics. I've been using soil-based probiotics for the past 10 days, and my scale indicates a weight gain of +4 pounds (from 110 to 114). Interestingly, I had a similar experience six months ago with lactobacillus probiotics, and I stopped taking them when I noticed weight gain, after I stopped my weight went back to normal. Is weight fluctuation normal when using probiotics, and have others experienced similar effects? Maybe probiotics are not good for some people like me?

[@Starnes8887]

Im thinking about trying the blend & noticed chicory root inulin, which i thought wasnt good for people with ibs. & Silica looks concerning but I dont think Mr. Ruscio would showcase this multiple times if it wasnt safe. Im just a bit skeptical because im tired of feeling like crap for the last few months & have read alot, maybe too much

Hi saw in a video that fos in probiotics is harmful? Whats your view on fos

[@jayalexandertilley]

Hey. I'm not a doctor but am a holistic nutritionist. My gut tells me (pun intended) that having FOS in a probiotic could cause trouble for someone who's microbiome is in distress. For someone who is experiencing leaky gut, or other digestive issues, or has had a disruption to the community of bacteria in their gut through something like antibiotics, certain kinds of diets, etc., might not have the resident bacteria (abundance and diversity) to be able to properly breakdown the FOS. It's similar to why people go on low Fodmap diets, essentially to reset their microbiome, and then slowly reintroduce really good foods that require a healthy and diverse community of bacteria to be properly broken down and used. I hope that makes sense. For a healthy gut, the presence of FOS is potentially of great benefit. Having pre and probiotics together is a great strategy in food or supplement if and when your digestion is in good order.

[@Blueyopo]

@@jayalexandertilley thanks for the info ✨️

Nausea is a symptom of intestinal inflammation. Could be an infection, bacterial or other types. Do a test like GI - MAP. It's expensive but looks for infections and is very sensitive.
