To TONY, Regarding SIBO
First, Tony, your posts are informative and well written. Thank you very much for that.
I've been having ammonia breath for quite a while now. I even have my towel I use in my 'Relax' Infrared Sauna smell like ammonia with sweat. This got me VERY concerned I had high levels of Uric Acid in my blood because I assumed my kidneys weren't working properly. I'm 27 and hoped that I'd been doing enough maintenance cleansing on my kidneys not to have kidney disease or failure so young. But recently, after taking Natren probiotics for a few days, I noticed no more ammonia smell on my towel after sweating. Somehow those probiotics stopped the smell. And now, since stopping them it's back. Does that rule out kidney problems and rule in SIBO? I've been bloated for 3 years, (looking six months pregnant, awesome look for a guy!) awful digestion (usual constipation), gas, depression, assumed candida, etc..
ANYWAY, your post's helped me think it may be SIBO which gave me the ammonia smell, not the kidneys (or maybe both?)
Also what specific Vitamin C did u use to treat your SIBO?
And I TOTALLY Agree with Turmeric, I think that is an amazing spice that really helps bacterial issues of all sorts, not to mention a great liver helper. Haven't used it in a while though, will start again.
AGAIN, THANK YOU!
