Natural Support for Healthy GI Function

FC-Cidal is one of several products Biotics Research has created to help with SIBO (small intestinal bacterial overgrowth) or irritable bowel syndrome with diarrhea (IBS-D) as a safe and natural herbal alternative to the antibiotic treatments (which can be ineffective or even counter-productive in some respects).

Related Products: Biotics Research ADP, Biotics Research Biome Balance, and Berberine HCl. Some practitioners suggest taking all four of these products in conjunction, for severe cases (see Biotics Research SIBO Kit). Also see Metagenics CandiBactin-AR and CandiBactin-BR.
