If you’ve been searching for a natural, effective way to heal your gut, you’re not alone. Gut health plays a huge role in how we feel—physically, mentally, and emotionally. But if you’ve been on this journey for any length of time, you know how overwhelming it can be to find answers.

I’ve definitely been there myself—I spent years diving into research, trying countless protocols, and feeling frustrated by how complicated everything seemed. From restrictive diets to expensive supplements, many solutions feel out of reach, both financially and practically. That’s why I was so excited to find the Super Gut SIBO Yogurt recipe, created by Dr. William Davis as part of his work on gut health.

This yogurt isn’t just simple and economical—it’s incredibly effective. And an added bonus is how yummy and creamy it is! I personally love it so much I have to practice self control to not eat too much. It gives your body exactly what it needs to start healing without overcomplicating the process. And the best part? It delivers a huge dose of probiotics—204 billion CFUs per half cup—to flood your gut with beneficial bacteria and help restore balance.

Let’s take a closer look at what makes this yogurt so special, why it’s worth incorporating into your routine, and how you can enhance your gut healing.

Why Is This Yogurt Different?

Unlike most gut-healing protocols, this yogurt is straightforward, affordable, and packed with real results.

The secret lies in the probiotic content:

• A typical probiotic pill contains 10–50 billion CFUs (colony-forming units). Even though this can be helpful, this amount is still relatively small.

• The Super Gut SIBO Yogurt, after fermenting for 36 hours, contains an amazing 204 billion CFUs per half-cup serving.

This massive boost happens through a simple process: extended fermentation with carefully chosen probiotic strains, which work together to support digestion and gut healing. With every serving, you’re giving your body an incredibly potent dose of good bacteria—without the expense or frustration of taking multiple supplements. This is an incredible process we can easily do at home, and nothing else comes close to its effectiveness! To keep it simple, all the supplies you need—including probiotics and prebiotic fiber—are in my shop. The best part? Most are a one-time investment, so you can keep making batch after batch with minimal restocking!



The Power of Probiotic Strains in Super Gut SIBO Yogurt

The Super Gut SIBO Yogurt isn’t just about probiotics—it’s about the right probiotics. Each strain in this yogurt was carefully selected to target specific gut health challenges, including SIBO, leaky gut, and inflammation. Here’s what makes these probiotic strains so powerful:

Lactobacillus reuteri (BioGaia Gastrus – ATCC PTA 6475 and DSM 17938)

Lactobacillus reuteri is a powerhouse probiotic known for its ability to restore balance in the gut microbiome. The specific strains used in this recipe, ATCC PTA 6475 and DSM 17938, have been extensively studied for their unique health benefits. These strains are highly effective at reducing inflammation, improving the integrity of the intestinal lining, and promoting oxytocin production, which enhances mental well-being and reduces stress. They also help strengthen the immune system, combat harmful pathogens, and support healthy digestion by reducing gas and bloating.

Lactobacillus gasseri (BNR17)

Lactobacillus gasseri is celebrated for its role in supporting healthy metabolism and weight management. This strain is known to suppress the growth of harmful bacteria, helping to maintain a balanced gut microbiome. It has also been shown to reduce symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), including abdominal pain and bloating, by improving gut motility. Furthermore, L. gasseri contributes to the production of beneficial short-chain fatty acids, which help nourish the gut lining and reduce inflammation. Its ability to promote fat metabolism and reduce visceral fat has also made it a popular strain for metabolic health.

Bacillus coagulans (GBI-30,6086)

Bacillus coagulans is a spore-forming probiotic that is highly resilient, allowing it to survive harsh stomach acid and effectively colonize the gut. This strain is well-known for its ability to reduce gastrointestinal discomfort, such as gas, bloating, and diarrhea, particularly in people with SIBO or IBS. It also plays a role in reducing inflammation throughout the body by modulating the immune system and producing anti-inflammatory compounds. B. coagulans is often credited with improving overall digestive efficiency and supporting the absorption of essential nutrients.

Together, these strains create a powerful, targeted approach to gut healing that goes far beyond what standard probiotics or store-bought yogurts can offer.

Signs and Symptoms of SIBO and Leaky Gut (and How This Yogurt Helps)

Your gut health is connected to so much more than just digestion. When SIBO or leaky gut occur, you may notice symptoms in other areas of your body too:

Common Signs of SIBO:

• Bloating, especially after meals

• Abdominal pain or cramping

• Excessive gas

• Diarrhea or constipation

• Food intolerances, particularly to high-fiber or high-carb foods

Common Signs of Leaky Gut:

• Chronic fatigue

• Brain fog or trouble concentrating

• Skin issues like eczema, acne, or rosacea

• Joint pain or inflammation

• Food sensitivities or allergies

• Digestive discomfort (bloating, diarrhea, or constipation)

How This Yogurt Can Help:

1. Rebalances Gut Bacteria

SIBO happens when harmful bacteria overpopulate the small intestine. The probiotics in this yogurt help crowd out bad bacteria, restoring a healthier balance in your gut microbiome.

2. Strengthens the Gut Lining

Leaky gut occurs when the intestinal wall becomes damaged, allowing toxins and undigested food particles to leak into your bloodstream. The strains in this yogurt, especially Lactobacillus reuteri and Bacillus coagulans, promote repair and reduce inflammation.

3. Reduces Inflammation

Chronic inflammation is a hallmark of both SIBO and leaky gut. The probiotics and prebiotics in this yogurt work together to calm inflammation and encourage healing.

4. Improves Digestion

By boosting good bacteria and enhancing enzyme production, this yogurt can help reduce bloating, gas, and discomfort after meals—common struggles for people with SIBO or leaky gut.

5. Supports Mental Clarity and Energy

A healthy gut plays a key role in brain function and energy levels. By addressing gut imbalances, this yogurt can help clear brain fog and improve overall well-being.

FAQs About Super Gut SIBO Yogurt

What makes this yogurt different from store-bought options?

Most store-bought yogurts contain fewer probiotics (often measured in millions or low billions of CFUs) and may include added sugars or preservatives. This Super Gut SIBO Yogurt delivers 204 billion CFUs per serving and is free from unnecessary additives.

Can I use a different milk base for the yogurt?

Yes, but the recipe works best with organic half-and-half for its creaminess and nutritional content. Non-dairy options like coconut milk can work, but results may vary. If using non-dairy milk, you’ll need to bring it to a simmer (around 180°F) before cooling it back down to 106°F to prepare it for fermentation. This step helps stabilize the milk and improve its texture during the fermentation process.

How long does the yogurt last?

Stored properly in the fridge, this yogurt lasts about 2 weeks. Always check for freshness before eating.

Is this yogurt safe for children or pregnant women?

This yogurt is generally safe, but if you’re pregnant or have specific concerns, it’s always a good idea to check with your healthcare provider.

This creamy, delicious yogurt is packed with probiotics to support gut healing, digestion, and overall health. SIBO-friendly and low-carb, it’s easy to make and delivers 204 billion CFUs per serving to help restore balance to your gut.

Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 1 day 12 hours
Total Time 1 day 12 hours 5 minutes

Ingredients

  • 10 BioGaia Gastrus tablets, crushed
  • 1 capsule Lactobacillus gasseri BNR17 (10 billion CFUs
  • 1 capsule Bacillus coagulans GBI-30,6086 (2 billion CFUs)
  • 2 tablespoons prebiotic fiber (like inulin)
  • 1 quart organic half-and-half

Instructions

    1. Prepare Your Slurry

    Mix the crushed probiotics (or 2 tablespoons of your last yogurt batch), prebiotic fiber, and 2 tablespoons of half-and-half in a bowl. Stir well to make a smooth slurry and ensure there are no clumps.

    2. Add the Milk

    Slowly pour in the remaining half-and-half, stirring to combine evenly.
