You can’t heal h. pylori without this

H. Pylori is one of the most common root causes of digestive issues. This bacterial infection of the stomach is often overlooked, the testing for it is poor and it lowers stomach acid so food is not digested properly. The result are a wide variety of symptoms such as anxiety, depression, reflux/GERD, bloating, fatigue, rosacea, constipation or diarrhea, food intolerances, burping, flatulence, pain or burning on empty stomach, and undigested food in stool. An h. pylori infection can leave the body more vulnerable to an overgrowth of candida, bacteria and parasites.

I’ve written a book about h.pylori to explain how to best address it, because sometimes natural herbs don’t work and antibiotics can make things worse.

H. pylori is one of the most common bacterial infections in the world. Estimates vary, but it is safe to say that more than 50 percent of people have h.pylori bacteria growing in their stomach.

Many people have h. pylori without many symptoms or negative repercussions. While it is extremely life disrupting for others, leading the symptoms mentioned above.

Why’s is h.pylori debilitating for some people and not for others?

The issue lays with the immune system, the nervous system and the adrenals. In people who have h.pylori without problems, are able to keep the bacteria in balance,

What causes or flares symptoms is chronic and intense stress, which burns out the adrenals, disrupts the nervous system and suppressed the immune system.

So this is what’s important to know about h. Pylori. It is not the severity of the infection that makes it hard to get rid of h. Pylori it’s the weakness of the body’s defense systems.

So instead of hitting h.Pylori harder with killing agents, it is worthwhile to support your body’s defenses so that the protocol can work much better. Otherwise you are fighting an uphill battle.

The most important steps to take

If you have some or many of the symptoms above, first get tested with the GI Map. It will pick up what most tests don’t. False negatives on other tests throw people off for years.

Once the infection is identified, you can use a natural protocol (I provide my most effective protocols in the book) or antibiotics. Antibiotics run the risk of lowering beneficial bacteria and causing more biome imbalance and inflammation.

My natural mastic gum protocol is designed to break through biofilm and help support the immune system. And it doesn’t harm beneficial bacteria.

When the killing plans don’t work it is usually because the body doesn’t have the energy to heal. But this can be fixed.

I help clients recover their adrenals and improve their metabolism (mitochondrial health) by running a hair tissue mineral analysis test (HTMA) to access the state of the adrenals, the thyroid, the nervous system, blood sugar and hormonal balance.

The test shows us how stressed the body is and if it is depleted, inflamed or both.

With burn out adrenals you’ll be more sensitive to stressed and more easily overwhelmed. Replacing minerals and working with diet and lifestyle can help with that, getting people out of the stress cycle that keeps them stuck.

I offer a mind and body program that includes the GI Map and the HTMA test which looks at the immune system, adrenal, mitochondrial health and cellular energy. It identifies what overgrowths exist and WHY they are there.

If you’ve been struggling with h. Pylori or SIBO without success it is time to work smarter instead of trying better killing protocols.

Start with building up your body’s natural defenses, which will make the herbs or antibiotics work much better.

How to address the real root cause

I find that h. Pylori and SIBO are the biggest root causes of digestive symptoms. Not only do the symptoms mimic each other but they both rely on healthy adrenals, nervous system and immune system for successful eradication.

But these foundational steps are missed by most practitioners who just start with herbs.

What makes the difference is the time spent preparing the body for healing. Most people with h. Pylori and SIBO are so anxious, deflated and spent that they are simply not ready to launch into the killing phase.

Healing is a mind and body process. The nervous system is the mind and body connection. So we need to work with the nervous system, adrenals and immune system to get them into healing shape.

Not only will the protocols work better but there will be less anxiety and more energy to move through the process.

The HTMA test allows me to go deeper with clients about what is stressing them and burning through their mineral reserves.

If you are ready to look at your current lifestyle and make changes, then the mind and body program is for you.

If you just want to find the right combination of pills to kill the infection or lower the overgrowth, you may need to go through the channel before you are ready for change. Everyone has their own path. My job is only to provide information about what works and what I’ve observed in working with clients for more than a decade.

The mind body program I offer is not just about replacing minerals, though that is a part of it, it is about figuring out how to best support your unique body and feel more comfortable in your life.

It’s not about restriction or perfection. This may have been a root cause stressor to begin with, it’s about understanding your unique set of stressors and addressing them slowly and gently. It is a gift that will keep on giving for a lifetime, not a protocol that has to be repeated every several months.
