MetagenicsCandiBactin-AR - Concentrated Aromatic Essential Oils - with Thyme Oil & Oregano Oil - Gut Health Supplements* - for Intestinal Microbial Balance* - Gluten-Free - 60 Softgels

Candibacin AR and BR are truly a lifesaver when it comes to killing sibo. I tried taking Xifaxin but the die-off symptoms were so intense I wasn’t able to last more than a day. The candibactin protocol allows you to ease Into the protocol slowly, avoiding a massive rush of die off symptoms. I hope this company never stops making it, it’s a miracle medicine.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Recommended by Doctor and it did the trick!

Arrived 4 hrs after I ordered it. Very good quality product

The media could not be loaded. I took CandiBactin-AR as part of my gut reset protocol, and it's one of the few supplements I could actually feel working. The thyme and oregano oils are potent—I experienced the “die-off” phase but in a manageable way. I like that the softgels are easy to swallow and don’t leave an aftertaste.I paired this with Biofilm Defense and a strict SIBO diet, and after a few weeks, my bloating and post-meal discomfort significantly decreased. It’s not a quick fix, but if you’re targeting microbial balance in the gut, this is one of the most effective I’ve tried.Definitely repurchasing for future rounds.

I’m not sure if this is helping or not, but I like the solid gel pill form. I did notice that I was burping herb taste , but I’ve found if I take it at night that is not a problem.

I got a bad acne breakout all over my chest and back after taking this for a few days. I stopped taking it and the acne cleared up immediately. After a few weeks I decided to give it a try again and after a few days the same thing happened, a bad acne breakout all over my chest and back.I’ve never had a reaction like this to anything else so I’m not sure what it is about this that caused the breakout but I can’t take it.

Helped me get rid of my sibo and I’m so happy! I’m scared to ever stop taking these. I literally tried everything under the sun before the AR/BR combo that functional doc recommended to me. These along with a cleaned up diet, I feel a million times better and can finally button my jeans again. Also, I hardly ever fart anymore. When I do fart, they no longer smell. These are a bit expensive, but they work.

I decided to take this product because I know it's a great company and because of the study by Gerald Mullins, MD of Johns Hopkins that I read about on one of the reviews. It's google-able, so can be found online.I did a microbiome test by Thorne and they found that I had an overgrowth of some bad bacteria and yeast.So, I started taking this along w/some other products recommended by Thorne. [Pre-fiber, fiber, probiotics and prebiotics etc.]The thing about killing stuff in your gut is - it dies and then your body has to get rid of it. sometimes the body gets overwhelmed by the bad guys, even when they're dead. its called a HERX reaction. also google-able if you don't know what it is.so, if you feel badly after taking this product, it could be because of a HERX reaction and not because the product is faulty in any way. the opposite. its doing its job, ie killing the bad stuff.I would suggest starting slowly. 1 a day for a few days, then 2 a day if things are going ok.Also, food grade clay and food grade charcoal are also supposed to help get the bad stuff out. I'm not a doctor or medical professional. do your own research.I do detox baths, either clay + seaweed or epsom salts sometimes w/charcoal. that's a great way to detox because the bad stuff comes out your skin too, and it can get alot out in one bath.So, know that getting rid of the bad stuff in your gut takes a while. it's a marathon and not a sprint. start very slowly, work up to the suggested dose gradually.Since I did the test and have been following the recommendations and taking these products, I feel alot better, which means alot. I still think I have several more weeks to go, I'll get another microbiome test and see what that says.Best of luck!!
