I have a doubt about SIBO - How long will it take to cure this and what is your take on protein deficiency? Is it advisable to take protein powder?
Hello, SIBO is nothing but bacterial overgrowth in your small intestine where it is not supposed to growing. So first we always focus on killing these bad or harmful bacteria before rebuilding the gut flora to healthy. It will take about 2 months approximately but more severe cases take more time. Coming to your next question, protein is a very important nutrition for our body especially enzymes, muscles and hormones. So, it is important to take the daily required amount based on your body weight for a healthy individual. If your dietary source is not providing the dialy intake then it is okay to consume protein powder - just make sure you have a good physical activity, a well-know brand or company and the proper amount required to consume. If you need more specificaaly, I would suggest you to consult our doctor so they can help you precisely based on the condition.
This is exactly the kind of question our doctors address in a clinical consultation — because what looks like a simple symptom is often connected to multiple layers of gut dysfunction. At Thavira Health, every patient begins with a detailed evaluation before the protocol is built. Our AYUSH-certified team combines naturopathy, herbology, supplements, yoga, meditation, acupressure, and hydrotherapy in a sequence specific to your condition, your history, and your body's response. The first step is our information-packed webinar, where Dr. Rayan walks through what this looks like — or you can book a one-on-one consultation call directly: thavira.health.
