H.Pylori

[theimmaculatecrown]

@joshrubineastwest It's interesting when you say, "too much cortisol release can affect every cell and every receptor site in every part of the body." I have muscle twitching everywhere. I guess that could explain it. Also, I discovered 2 containers I drink water from had dark mold at their bottoms. Do you think the H. pylori was breeding in them and I was ingesting it with my water?

[theimmaculatecrown]

I think I have H. pylori. I just been tested and am awaiting results, so sorry @joshrubineastwest, I won't be able to give you that stool sample you so desire. Lol.:p Seriously though, with no insurance not one doctor ever mentioned H. pylori. Recently because of my burning stomach, I came across the name. I just went to the doctor(now having insurance) and the first she said was "You could have H. pylori". I'm super excited about this. I just want to feel normal again.

[zulayizzy]

Does anyone have panic attacks with this crap?

[plasticdinosaur484]

@zulayizzy

I have been tested positive for H Pylori, being treated, round two, and have severe panic attacks with it, Its been 2 years since I even had a mild one, now I have extreme panic attacks. Has it happened to you? I even called 911 once,thinking I was having heart attack.

[Shoosta92]

OK.

[firemachima]

ok ?

[RUDIE110]

And most of all. Stay positive cause it can really make you down having these, I've had some really down down points. Don't let it be the controller because its YOUR body. Tell em whos boss!

[RUDIE110]

Herbal tea helps, Green tea and 'good for your insides' tea. Probiotics...I take these every morning and every night, coconut is good, vitamins- I make sure I have vit C in water every morning too to support my immune system as obviously its been needing some love and affection since these b****rds have invaded.

Lots of veg and fruit, fresh food is your best option. And if you have 'bowel problems' and 'gas problems' Christ do not eat spicy food or oily food! Fast food is crap anyway, get rid!

[briantotse3]

I've got all of the symptoms associated with this infection.

I recently had a stack of blood-work done by an independent lab, only for them to release the results to my doctor, who told me that the only abnormality was a slight allergy to peanuts. This is absurd.

I'm starting to become quite convinced that it's common practice in the American medical establishment to treat this infection only once it causes a more serious ailment, such as an ulcer, in order to maximize profits.

[RUDIE110]

@briantotse3 Its like that in the u.k .Ive been ill for about 11months.I'm unsure of where I picked it up from as I did a lot of travelling last year and I ended up going away to Swaziland to help kids-thus giving me cryptosporidium as well as this infection-not fun and both have caused so much anxiety as I've had blood tests for pretty much everything due to being with children in africa. I'm still on the waiting list for an endoscopy but I have pretty much all symptoms too.

[briantotse3]

@RUDIE110

I've had great success treating the symptoms by adding small amounts of Sodium Bicarbonate to my drinking water, keeping the acidity of my stomach lower throughout the day.

Drugs like Zantac have also been helpful to keep the acidity down during the night while I'm asleep.

Also, I read that eating things with "good bacteria" (Such as Yogurt, Kefir, etc) can help take the place of things like Pylori.

I'm sure it's not cured, but I'm feeling much, much better. No pain at all.

[5kyzthelimit]

I have this thing :((( I already went through the med cocktail and the pain went away buy I still feel tired for no reaso

[Denisehealthnut]

Sister recently diagnosed with this due to stomach pains after meals and she had the stool test only after she persisted to the doctors because they did blood tests and said she was perfectly healthy, moral of the story is listen to your body, if something doesn't feel right then chances are something isn't right. I love how you explain why one test is better than the other. Thank you for posting, I'll get tested soon, families pass it to each other. Other Symptoms dark stools & nausea.

[RUDIE110]

@Denisehealthnut I completely agree with those saying 'listen to your body' please do...seriously, I went to docs, had absolutely looads of blood tests and it took a few stool tests to even find anything and I also said way before they did tests that I was certain I had parasites and an infection because my body did not feel like itself. Everybody else didn't agree and I was right! My body still doesn't feel like itself but I'm still waiting for a hospital visit to see what is going on.

[renenosexi]

It's actually comma shaped. The medically relevant microbes that are corkscrew-shaped are limited to T. pallidum (syphillis), B. burgdorferi (the causal agent of Lyme disease), L. interrogans (Weil's disease).

These are the most common, but there may be a few others that are rare.

Also, a doctor's office will give all the tests you've spoken of. I know because I'm a medical student.

You know what the best advertisement is? PEER REVIEWED STUDIES.

[courtneyfan1212]

i have it trust me i has ruined my life but im 10 i wish it was a parisite instead i found out i had it since feb. 2011

[holden2381]

Josh, have you dealt with patients that have seborrheic dermatitis? I used to take alot of antacids when I was younger and think I messed my digestion up. I now take betaine hcl with every meal and I don't get heartburn or bloating. I was wondering if you know of a link between the 2 conditions? (low stomach acid & seborrheic d) Thanks!

[frozenstrawbs]

ahhh i have this shitter right now, my stomach feels full and empty at the same time and i can't stop burbing, give me some heroin or crack to make it go away

[XforeverlongingX]

*if you have an overgrowth of the candida I meant to say.

[XforeverlongingX]

Don't even get me started on the candida nonsense. Everyone has, to a certain degree, candida albicans in their bodies. The only time this gets out of control is if the person has an immune suppressing disease like AIDS, if they are on long term corticosteroids, or long term antibiotics. You don't want to be playing around with candida in an alternative medicine practice, if you actually have it, because you can end up in the hospital if it's not properly treated.

[XforeverlongingX]

Oh please Josh Rubin. You're promoting your own stool testing and saying that the breath tests they do for h pylori is pushed over medical doctor stool tests because insurance won't cover it? Are you mad, sir? Insurance covers stool tests too in a MD's office! Your alternative laboratories are garbage and many of them are being sued for spewing the same nonsense that you do. "There are other common parasites associated with h pylori" parasites are NOT common, buddy in N. American humans.

[jdh023]

This guy has been watching too much South Park Mkay, Mkay, Mkay. He sounds like Mr. Mackey. Mkay

[KarinOll]

What is this called, the prescription against the parasites? Pref Pack? Also available in Europe somehow?

[KarinOll]

Great great clip!

[fredguy2]

I heard green tea helps with this.

[arfx3]

If someone gets rid of H. Pylori in their stomach and then begins to have symptoms of heartburn, can the bacteria be reintroduced under a physicians care to stop the stomach acid?

[mermaid30019]

@arfx3 stopping the stomach acid is actually what makes it easy for the h pylori to survive. sufficient stomach acid is very important

[arfx3]

@mermaid30019 I understand that. I actually had H. Pylori...hoping to get possibly a resurgance or reintroduction somehow. After I eradicated it, began to have symptoms of acid reflux. I was completely asymptomatic for H. Pylori...doctor just picked it up on a blood test and decided to treat it....i totally regret that day.

[G1uTiN]

This disease brought me low energy level, depression and also lowered my intelligence! i've been having it since 2 years ago... God help me!

[Airgutter87]

My name is Josh Rubin... "okay?" I'm going to be talking about H. Pylori... "okay?" H. Pylori is bad... "okay?"... I like to say okay every 15 seconds.. "okay?"

Please take a speech class at a local college.. they have different levels..

Invest in HD camera too... I am going crazy at 2 minutes from all of the "okay?"'s (now 5 minutes, never stops!)

[XforeverlongingX]

@Airgutter87 He's a pseudo-scientist and a pseudo-intellectual. Don't expect much more from him. A speech class can't fix stupidity.

[rhanley33]

My GI doctor found it through an EGD. He said you definitley want to get H Pylori taken care of it can cause all the problem this guy said. This is a very good video!! My family doctor told me my stomach problems and fatigue was due to anxiety... well he was wrong!!!

[OneUnderground]

I seriously hope I am infected with this. lol may seem odd but I have been suffering with stomach and digestive problems for a couple years now. I have no health insurance so you could imagine how much money I've wasted on countless doctors who all told me different things. Acid reflux, gastritis, IBS, Gall Bladder, Celiac disease. But no one even bothered to check me thoroughly! They were all "maybes"

[officereagle]

@OneUnderground I hope I am too. I have health insurance but they've been...a little difficult lately. It sucks. It all comes rather suddenly. Lots of gas. I have relatives step on various parts of my back and stomach where I feel pressure as that is the only way I've found to alleviate it. Then there is loose stools, vomiting...it all really sucks and lately it's all been happening more frequently.

Eagerly awaiting the results of my blood test. Hopefully this is my problem

[PLAlfa]

is itposibble to kill that bacteria with greaptfruits?

[merton26]

what about water

[Catherine8here]

What are the other parasites and fungus you said, can you spell them, thanks

[suarez85]

I been having pain in my upper stomach for a few weeks, but also had the same pain last year, don't know if it was from the same, but they did a blood test and i came out positive on H. pylori, so doctor prescribe me the prevpac only. will this help out?

[Catherine8here]

Can I ask do you get gnawing pains that make you feel hunger?

[suarez85]

@Catherine8here

well after all this I change the way & time that I eat now, but as i'm taking the medication, I do feel like my stomach is empty, no pain, I would only get pain when I'll eat, but before I'll eat I will feel nauseus, but that before I knew I had this bacteria in me.

[Catherine8here]

@suarez85 What food can you eat and how do you eat? Are you on antibiotics? I was wondering was the pain a slight burning pain, or gnawing hunger pain above the tummy button? Thanks, I have been suffering quite a bit. Nice to hear from you.

[HeyItPat]

i got a positive 1 days ago. That why i been having stomach ache for 5 years.

[deporlover]

somehow yes but still not fully recoverd, I should repeat the tests and I am planning to do that next week.

[michelleescarf]

I was test positive for h pilori 2 weeks ago . I also had a massive ulcer of at least 10 cent wide. I was in major stomach pain , nausea weight loss . had a endoscopy 2 weeks ago now i'm on antibiotics and kapidex . I am still very tired and my bones hurt . what can I do . i can't take advil ?

[MultiSubWay]

This clip has been very helpful for me so thanks!

[Fendermrr]

I found out I had H. Pylori when I was about 14 when I got tested for it. I found out after 2 weeks because I felt nausea and had no desire to eat. I took some pretty big pills (anti biotics) and I was back to normal again. However, I am concerned that I have stomach cancer. Silly, I know but I always had a sensitive digestive system (diarreah in the morning here and there) Especially if I was nervous. I am 18 now and I dont know if I should get tested for hpylori again. or get tested for cancer

[joshrubineastwest]

Well you typically get it from raw chicken, raw eggs and sexual fluids.

[Catherine8here]

How about vegetables, raw milk, raw cream?

[jbrandismith]

@joshrubineastwest Hey Josh...I think I have H. Pylori. So all I need to do is takr a prev pack for 2 weeks, Mastica gum and Bio Hp F to get rid of it? 

[deporlover]

I have it and I feel very very bad..continous stress and mood swing, tired al the time, vision problems and a lot more

[joshrubineastwest]

Yes I have had it before and got rid of it as well!

[Neudahl]

hi, I tested positive for this about 2 yrs ago. and never got treatment for it other then I take prilosec everyday, I am considering the lemongrass oil treatment before I do try the triple T . How did you get rid of it, and did you have to change your diet. and how long ago. thnx

[Catherine8here]

Can gnawing pains above tummy button, which makes you want to binge by H pylori? Can partner catch it.

[IsmaelGarza88]

have you ever had h-pylori

[blubliblue]

more than a great vid, thanks a lot

[yoon715]

mmmm kay?

[jennrvv]

Hey Josh, I like to eat organic, free-run eggs raw...is this related to H.pylori, or are you referring to conventionally raised eggs?

thanks

[joshrubineastwest]

What doctor?

[Spr1gg3n]

where is this doctor located i wanna go and see him my doctors are doing nothing for me except for seeing me

[lilRSXs]

lol..

[artsilly23]

Is smelling ammonia or burning plastic or even exhaust fumes related to h.pylori. Because for past couple months i get these random fumes in my nose, not breath or sweat, just in my nose, every time i inhale through the nose i smell this pungent scent for like 5 to 20 min..then goes away...

[brettwill87]

i think im gonna have to go to the doctors to be checked out for somthing like this my breath stinks i wake up every morning and im sick and im feeling sick through out the day some times being sick butt its just like a bitter horrible liquid that comes out some times yellow. my stomach is always rumbling and passing wind alot and every now and then i feel as if i got the flew coming i go to bed wake up the next day and it is gone do you think i should as him to check me out fo h pylori

[joshrubineastwest]

Anytime

[zabs6]

excellent video thanks gor sharing it

[ph0909]

thank you soo much!

[LifeLightStation]

is there a cheap home test I can purchase?

[joshrubineastwest]

Glad you like it!

[cokacola600]

that was a wonderful video bravobravobravobravobravo

[joshrubineastwest]

It is a specific antibiotic for HP and it is just a 2wk course. Then I follow it up with a 2-3 month herb protocol, then a gut healing protocol.

Prevpac is a prepackaged combination of drugs designed to cure duodenal ulcers caused by H. pylori bacteria, the most common source of ulcers. With two antibiotics and an acid-blocking agent, Prevpac will eradicate the H. pylori infection and improve your odds of remaining ulcer-free.

[dohcturbo2]

@joshrubineastwest

Carmen okeyyyy

[jaymoragne]

How well does PREVPAC treat this infection?

[joshrubineastwest]

OMG...thanks for counting!

[akuma4u]

omg you said "OK" so many times

[joshrubineastwest]

I will have to look into that. As HP is a bacteria you pick up from raw eggs and chicken, not from being zinc def. It might make you more susceptible,as zinc is correlated with the immune system.

[dadmarch1927]

Do a search on youtube for zinc deficiency. It appears to

be a H.Pylori solution.

[joshrubineastwest]

Oh, MD's know. They test for it using all the wrong tests.

[robgass]

Also why is this not widely tested for. I even asked a dr if it could be bacteria. Even worse my brother was recently told he had colon cancer that stemmed from h pylori..It spread and he died months later. I finally have insurance again and am goin this week. but it scares me to think of all the diagnosis i ahve been thru or not been thru and then his when it was too late--seems there is still little know about this ..are we still learning bout this bacteria. Thanks sooo much

[robgass]

thank u- 4 years i have been struggling with stomach prob-I have seen many dr-had a coloscopy-all my symptoms of extreme discomfort like my stomach is empty big and grumbling-now bad heartburn-and fatigue all dismissed as--gas---a bladder infection--and irritable bowl--feeling helpless and unheard-i tried my moms cipiro for 7 days--the feeling went away--it always comes back though after months--i think it is h pylori now--can you get it from reusing water bottles?thank you i think this is it.

[joshrubineastwest]

Very rare!

[joshrubineastwest]

You can't get if from sushi. All research shows raw eggs and chicken. Unless they cracked a raw egg (the small ones they use), got it on something and you ate it.

[joshrubineastwest]

Research shows it comes from raw chicken ( or undercooked, utensils with bacteria on it, etc), raw eggs (there are raw eggs in real caesar dressing) and sexual fluids of any kind!!!

[flylik3planez]

interesting, my doctor thinks i got it from sushi

i will have to let you know when i get the results back

if i definitely have it

[flylik3planez]

This helped me out so much. I am waiting for stool tests to come back to confirm, but i am pretty sure this is what i have. I have been sick on and off for about three months and it matches up perfectly. I am curious though, you mentioned under cooked chicken.. but what about fish? I read it could be almost any kind of undercooked meat and i am pretty sure i got this from the excessive amount of sushi i eat. Let me know.. Thanks so much.

[joshrubineastwest]

Cool!

[cominup85]

hi, i've just been diagnosed with h. pylori today. my stomach has been troubling me for a year. glad its getting sorted now!

[joshrubineastwest]

Here is what I would do:

1. You cannot see HP with an endoscopy. You can only test it the way I explain in my videos

2. You can run a lab test through us if you would like to see if you actually have the HP bacterium

3. Then from there it is easy to erradicate with herbs, etc

4. It sounds like you have other things going on besides HP. Insulin and metabolic issues are typically from lack of living food or intake of too much dead food. I would work on some nutritional and lifestyle modifications.

[1wingedove]

Well, if it wasn't for my endoscope, I never would have found out I had H. Pylori. I don't understand why you're saying it cannot be found by the scope.

Perhaps I had a major case of it. I don't know. I do know I had severe pain for years and put off seeing a doctor, which probably caused it to multiply like crazy, no?

[plasticdinosaur484]

@1wingedove I found out through biopsy through scope.

[missghotica]

hey..recently i got sick with a virus and i went to the doctor..and she told me i might be infected with the hp bacterium...i think she is right cuz for so many years since im 12 ive been having this sintomes : headaches,dissiness,empty stomach..and some insuline problems..( i think i have metabolic sydrome) so ive been reading and looking for info..i had been treated for so many doctors and none of them could help me!im 16 now btw..do u think i need an endoscopy?

[joshrubineastwest]

My approach is, if is is not broken, don't fix it! There are so many new supps that come out. I love DFH, but I do not use that product. I get 100% results with nutrition coaching, 2 wks of Prevpak and 3 months of the Matica Gum and BioHPF.

[dynamicwellness33]

Josh, how do you like Hp mend by designs for health? I know Dr Kalish does his protcol for only 2 months of the mastica, do you feel the extra month is better?
