Sunja asks,
I recently virtually attended a SIBO conference and the consensus was not to use probiotics in those with SIBO. This seems to run counter to what I have heard you recommended. What is your stance on probiotics in SIBO?
This is a contentious issue. However, I feel the statement ‘one should not use probiotics in SIBO’ is untenable. I recently answered this question in our weekly video. Essentially, you can only come to this conclusion if you cherry-pick the data. It’s not to say probiotics will be well-tolerated by all, but clearly, they are a top consideration. Detailed here.
My office recently went through an audit to ensure we are not violating any regulations. The main area where this is open to interpretation is telehealth. Here are a few key points to investigate if you have not already:
Some of the informed consents and disclaimers feel to be a bit of an overkill, but in today’s litigious society, it is better to be safe than sorry.

Hello ,
I have treated many people using Hydrotherapy which in the 1800’s used to be a very avant guard science with many solutions for the illness present in the day in counterpoint to the dangerous concoctions offered by physicians of the day. Hydrotherapy is an old term for the more modern Thermal Medicine treatments involving sets and combinations of hot packs and application of short cold to elicit vasomotor, visceromotor reflex effects which can profoundly alter the way tissues and organ metabolism works. There is an increase in research in this area lately and I feel that Functional Medicine could easily adopt some of the treatments that can be conducted at home or others in spas with great potential to influence the course of most disease processes. I submitted an oral presentation for the meeting in FL this year but never received a reply from it. I would like to know if you have advise for me on how to expose the Population of Functional Medicine Professionals to this great treatments, rationale and application to many if not most diseases,
Thank you

Great question. Could you share your 5 most compelling references here? Keep applying and trying to get your message out, sometimes it take a while until you find your right niche/audience.
