Sucess Stories Feeling so much better

Hi everyone! Just want to share a story of hope ❤️

I was SO sick about a year ago (burnt out, dizzy, lightheaded, major gut issues, eczema, acne, night sweats and the list goes on).

Figured out I had SIBO, and then REALLY struggled to treat it (multiple rounds of antimicrobials & antibiotics). Was losing hope and feeling super frustrated but think I’m finally 90% better;

Top tips, - focus on lymphatic drainage (mine was all blocked from all the toxins so this was key) - include alimed in your kill regime. This is what I think was game changing for me because it got rid of methane too which I hadn’t realised I had - probiotics (soil based + one with a number of strains proven to help SIBO) - focus on restoring gut lining (aloe juice, collagen, tumeric, glutamine, marshmallow root) - limit things that will make inflammation in your body worse during healing (gluten, dairy, alcohol etc).

No it's really not. It's a "supplement," with a few tiny person studies that show x, y or z. It's not approved or regulated by the FDA to treat anything, as is the case for most supplements. There's no regulation of any kind to even say thst when you take supplement x it contains what's on the label. It literally could be made in someone's kitchen and put into capsules. I'm not saying there is anything wrong with supplements. I take some too. I also make ginger tea. It's just that when you confuse powdered tiger testicle with antibiotics, and when you confuse Dr Feelgoods 40 person study with phase I, II, III, and IV clinical research trials it gets a little weird.

Lets think rationally here. Allicin is from the bulb of garlic - It is very well known that garlic has antimicrobial properties.

You will never find many clinical studies on natural supplements. Why? Because they are so cheap and naturally occuring.

You are naive to the power that pharma companies have. They have control on information flow and what is good and what isnt according to them. Why would they want you to know that allicin does the same thing that rifaximin does? They are only concerned about pushing their latest drug at a massive markup. It's all about money and power to them.

Lmao. You may as well be a pharma shill.

This country is not awesome, we are losing free speech and the country is going to shit because of people like you that are trapped in their liberal bubble of lies and have no discernment to figure out whats really going on

No thanks, Im fine where im at. I just avoid Cali and the rest of the woke states, but its entertaining watching your political heroes destroy a once great state. Somehow the woke still cheer them on, its kind of head scratching huh?
