Created by Dr. Elena Ivanina, DO, an integrative holistic board-certified gastroenterologist and SIBO specialist, the HEAL SIBO Program was designed to help people better understand their digestive symptoms and become more informed participants in their SIBO healing journey from understanding root cause to integrative treatment options.
About This Program
Patients travel from around the world to see Dr. Ivanina for her deep-dive, root-cause holistic approach to healing the gut. Drawing from her experience and evidence-informed approach, this program provides a practical framework for understanding everything you need to know about SIBO to have a successful healing journey!
What's Included
- 35-Minute Educational Video: Dr. Ivanina walks you through everything you need to know about SIBO, from root cause, symptoms, lab tests, treatment, and recurrence prevention.
- SIBO Root-Cause Evaluation Framework: A comprehensive checklist designed to help you organize the factors that may be relevant to your gut health and prepare for a more productive conversation with your healthcare professional so you can take the next steps needed to heal!
- SIBO Symptoms & Signs Guide: A practical handout covering symptoms that may be associated with SIBO, along with signs such as lab tests associated with SIBO.
- SIBO Herbal Antimicrobials: An educational guide to herbal antimicrobials used to treat SIBO. This handout introduces the concepts behind herbal antimicrobial therapy, the available research, and the important considerations for safety and individualized use. Research into herbal antimicrobial protocols for SIBO is still developing. Some small studies have reported improvement in breath-test results and symptoms with particular herbal preparations, but the evidence base is considerably smaller and less definitive than the evidence for established medical therapies. Herbal products also vary substantially in formulation, concentration, quality, and dosing. This handout is intended to help you understand the conversation—not to provide an individualized herbal treatment protocol.
- Microbiome Manipulation: The “Crowd Out” Concept: Explore how microbiome manipulation such as prebiotics, probiotics, and postbiotics may affect your SIBO healing journey. Rather than thinking exclusively about “killing bad bacteria,” the program introduces a broader ecological model where supporting normal gut function with beneficial prebiotics and microbes can gradually create an environment where a healthier microbial ecosystem can thrive.
- Discounts: Discount codes will be provided via email in a follow-up educational session with Dr. Ivanina or NP Katie, as well as Biome Botanicals “go” and other partners!
Designed to Help You Ask Better Questions
The goal isn’t to give you another diagnosis from the internet. It’s to give you a clearer framework for understanding your symptoms, recognizing when further evaluation may be appropriate, and having a more informed conversation with your local physician or other qualified healthcare professional. Many physicians may not be educated about SIBO and this can help you steer the conversation in the right direction!
You’re Not Alone on Your SIBO Journey
We know having SIBO can be a difficult, long journey and it can be difficult to find accurate information and rare to find a helpful physician to guide your healing journey — this program was made to help YOU!
