Parasites are an often-overlooked factor in chronic gut symptoms, food intolerance, histamine-type reactions, fatigue, and cases where patients feel stuck despite addressing SIBO, Candida, or other common gut imbalances. In this episode, Dr. Ruscio, Dr. Jake Vonfeldt, and Dr. Scott Spiridigliozzi discuss common parasites like Giardia, Cryptosporidium, Blastocystis, pinworms, and helminths, why standard testing can miss them, and how clinical history can help determine when parasites deserve closer consideration. They also share both natural and pharmaceutical parasite protocols, along with practical guidance on when each approach may be appropriate.

In this episode, Dr. Ruscio explains how the gut, histamine, and mast cells are connected, what the latest human research shows, and why this approach may help some patients who haven't fully responded to diets, supplements, or other natural therapies.

Butyrate is produced by gut bacteria, but it is often low in different chronic health conditions. Supplementation has been shown to improve a variety of gut conditions, including IBS, IBD, and SIBO, as well as chronic inflammation and brain health. Doctor Ruscio also discusses some simple dietary strategies to increase butyrate production naturally.
