I started to feel normal again when I stopped taking it. Review: This sh*t works! - I used Biotics Dysbiocide simultaneously with Biotics FC-Cidal for SIBO and can say that (so far) this sh*t really works! I was diagnosed with SIBO (small intestinal bacterial overgrowth) after taking a lactulose breath test following a bad bout with food poisoning and multiple rounds of antibiotics afterward. Turns out the antibiotics cleared out my good bacteria leaving the bad to grow! Fast forward past a hellish 6 months of gas, bloating, digestive issues, and a newfound fear of food, and my gastroenterologist orders me to go on Xifaxan (rifaximin) to target and kill the SIBO. It worked, but only for 3 weeks. The SIBO came back (very common), and my gastro doc ordered me to go on herbal rescue therapy (the Dysbiocide + FC-Cidal combo). It's only been 4 days, but I'm feeling WAY better than I have in a long time. The testament? I ate a full Mexican cuisine dinner last night at a restaurant and had a SOLID stool today! Sorry to get graphic, but it has been loose for sooooo long! I have been on the low FODMAP diet (and feeling malnourished) for MONTHS afraid to eat any "unsafe" foods, but am now thinking I can branch out and eat high FODMAP foods like avocado and corn again without paying for it later. Reader be warned, there are side effects with the Biotics combo (as a result of bacteria "die-off"), but they're bearable in relation to what you (we) have been dealing with! These include extreme fatigue, insomnia (took 2 hours to fall asleep one night) some brain fog, and sinus issues/allergies for the first few days. I've had a little nausea, but it's not bad at all. It's day 4 and my stomach is not making noises like it was, gas feels fruitful like it used to, and the bowel movements are whole, smooth, and feel soooooo good again! I'll keep you posted on my progress as I've been instructed to be on the Biotics combo for 1 month. Feeling optimistic and now seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. You, too, can get through this. If this review even helps 1 person, it was worth it! ## Features - PROTECTS GUT LINING: FC-Cidal is a blend of botanical extracts that help restore balance. - PROPRIETARY BLEND: FC-Cidal delivers a potent 500 mg in a single capsule of a proprietary blend of 7 herbs that supports digestive health. - SUPPORTS HEALTHY IMMUNE RESPONSE: Approximately 70% of the entire immune system is found in the gastrointestinal tract.

Had severe ulcerative colitis with extreme diarrhea that was being mostly controlled with Prednisone plus SIBO symptoms. I wanted to rebalance my entire gut’s microbiome. Kill off the bad guys, strengthen my gut wall. It worked! My UC was throughout my colon, and this treatment for about 6 weeks helped it all to start healing. It has been into remission for over two years now. I almost immediately lost about 10% of body fat, and my bloated waistline trimmed down to as slim as it was in high school! My food cravings disappeared, so I was able to go 14 hours every night without eating. I felt so good! My UC is still in remission even though my husband has been having lots of trouble with Parkinson’s snd dementia for more than a year. Find that study on treating SIBO with these two herbal supplements and you’ll see how effective it has proven to be when compared to the typical antibiotic treatment, which often has some bad side effects and always disrupts one’s microbiome even more. These herbs, taken together, were comparable to the usual antibiotic(s) given to tackle SIBO with NO bad side effects. **Q: What exactly are the herbs and fillers in this product? Is it sugar, gluten, grain, dairy, soy and egg and nut free?** A: According to the label - it does not contain any sugar, gluten, grain, dairy, soy, egg or nuts. The proprietary blend contains: Artemisia dracunculus (French Tarragon) contains a complex mixture of almost 50 different compounds which, amongst other properties, is known to inhibit the growth of several pathogenic bacteria and yeasts. Tinaspora cordifolia (Indian Tinaspora) is a bitter herb that has been found to be inhibitory to both parasites and yeast. Other herbal extracts, including Equisetum arvense (Horsetail), Olea europa (olive leaf), Thymus vulgaris (Thyme), Urtica dioica (Stinging nettle), and Tabeuia avellandae (Pau D'Arco). Other ingredients: capsule shell (gelatin and water), cellulose and magnesium stearate (vegetable source).

Like you I am 50%. I think to cure SIBO we would need to change the microbiome, like with a fecal transfusion. Relieving stress would help too. **Q: This product label warns that it may have lead in it. What would this be from?** A: I had the same question so I called my practitioner about this who told me to call a pharmacist, who told me to call the manufacturer. Thankfully when I called the manufacturer they said that according to California state law, any supplement containing any kind of herb must include a label warning of possible lead contamination because this can be a concern with herbs, but that there is no chance that the herbs in this supplement contain lead, but they need to include the label anyway to comply with California state law. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐ Made Me Moody And Sad *by L***E on 3 May 2022* This did not work at all.

This herbal blend provides targeted botanical support for maintaining healthy digestive balance, and the results have been consistently positive when used as part of a structured gut restoration program. What sets this supplement apart is the synergistic combination of herbal ingredients that work together to support overall gastrointestinal health. The 500mg capsules deliver therapeutic potency that healthcare practitioners rely on for clinical applications. My doctor specifically chose this formula for its research-backed ingredients and the company's reputation for producing supplements that meet professional standards. The quality and consistency have been outstanding throughout my treatment protocol. The capsules are easy to swallow without any unpleasant aftertaste, and I've experienced no digestive upset when following the prescribed dosing schedule. The botanical ingredients maintain their potency well, and the packaging protects the supplements from degradation. The manufacturing standards from Biotics Research are evident in every aspect of this product.

Working closely with my healthcare provider to determine proper dosing and duration has been crucial for achieving optimal results. This is a therapeutic-grade supplement that works best when integrated into a comprehensive gut health strategy rather than used as a standalone product. Highly recommend for those working with qualified practitioners on digestive health - this delivers the professional-grade botanical support that clinicians trust for effective gut health protocols. ## Frequently Bought Together - Biotics Research FC Cidal™ Herbal Blend Complete GI Gut Health for Women & Men- 500 mg/Serving - 7 Herbs Proprietary Blend Supplement Supports Healthy GI Function and Microbial Balance 120 Capsules - Biotics Research Dysbiocide Synergistic Botanical Blend Supports Normal Gut Health for Women & Men - Digestive Health Supplement - Supports Balanced Gut microbiome - 120 Capsules - Biotics Research A.D.P.- Emulsified Oil of Oregano -Patented Formula, Wild Oregano Oil 50mg/S- Highly Concentrated Carvacrol - Sustained Release for High Absorption, GI Health –120 Tablets --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/619770547-biotics-research-fc-cidal-100-capsules-by-biotics-research](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/619770547-biotics-research-fc-cidal-100-capsules-by-biotics-research) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-11-11*
