What is FixBIOME?

FixBIOME is an Australian company which offers gut health supplements developed by doctors to address various digestive issues including Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO), Candida overgrowth, dysbiosis and leaky gut syndrome. However, it can be taken by anyone who would like to improve their gut health.

FixBIOME largely includes natural ingredients such as herbs, roots and oils.

What I really like about FixBIOME is that there is an evidence base for each of the ingredients. You can read about why each ingredient is included on their website. They also link to the actual scientific studies on these ingredients if you want to dive deeper.

They essentially have three main products which you combine as part of a 4-week half course, a regular 6-8 week course or an intensive 8-10 week course. Some people do take it ongoing, but I think this should only be in special circumstances.

Their three main products are:

FixBIOME Gut Fix Repair
FixBIOME Fix No 1 Motility
FixBIOME Fix No 2 Control

FixBIOME Gut Fix Repair

FixBIOME Repair primarily aims to:

relieve bloating
repair your gut wall lining
improve bowel regularity
relieve bowel discomfort and gastrointestinal pain

It includes:

Glycyrrhiza glabra (liquorice) extract - helps relieve symptoms of indigestion including acid reflux, upset stomach and heartburn
L-Glutamine - speeds up the 48-hour cell turnover of the gut lining and promotes its structural integrity by repairing the tight junctions of the gut
Althaea officinalis L. (Marshmallow) extract - improves mucous membrane health
Quercetin Dihydrate - enhances intestinal barrier function and modulates gut microbiota composition. It also reduces inflammation
Zinc Oxide - can help with leaky gut

All of the ingredients have been chosen because there is medical literature supporting their benefits. I encourage you to read more about this on their website as there is a wealth of information and scientific evidence!

You can also just take FixBIOME Repair on its own (as opposed to being combined with the other two products) for general gut health management. As they state, “it enhances many key functions needed for healthy digestion”.

FixBIOME Fix No 1 Motility

FixBIOME Motility primarily aims to:

control microbial overgrowth
reduce inflammation
ease various digestive complaints

It includes various essential oils such as:

Oregano (Oreganum vulgare) Oil - has a broad antimicrobial spectrum effect that can work to reduce bacterial overgrowth in the gut
Thyme Oil - has strong antimicrobial properties that can help kill off bacterial and fungal overgrowth
Salvia officinalis (Sage) extract - has anti-inflammatory properties and aids in smooth functioning of the digestive system
Melissa officinalis (Lemon Balm) extract - has anti-inflammatory effects and has been shown to improve digestive symptoms
Peppermint Oil - can reduce cramping, bloating, flatulence and nausea

See their website for more information and evidence about these ingredients.

FixBIOME Fix No 2 Control

FixBIOME Control is called a ‘berberine blend’ and has various berberine ingredients which are natural compounds extracted from specific plants which control microbial overgrowth and reduce inflammation. Other ingredients in this capsule provide other gut health benefits such as waste elimination and easing various digestive symptoms.

The ingredients are:

Coptis chinensis (Coptis root) extract - promotes healthy digestive and microbial environments
Berberis aristate (Indian Barberry) extract - has antimicrobial activity against major gastrointestinal pathogens
Berberis vulgaris extract - modulates the composition of the gastrointestinal microbiota
Scutellaria baicalensis (Chinese skullcap) extract - calms and nourishes the nerve area of the digestive tract and reduces spasms, pain and bloating
Zingiber officinale (ginger) extract - alleviates IBS and SIBO symptoms by protecting the stomach from oxidative stress-induced damage
Rheum officinale (Chinese rhubarb) root powder - assists in restoring gut microbiota balance
Anethum graveolens (dill) extract - helps elliminate waste from the body and reduces the creation of excessive acids in the stomach
Glycyrrhiza glabra (liquorice) extract - helps relieve symptoms of indigestion including acid reflux, upset stomach and heartburn

See their website for more information and evidence about these ingredients.

Dosing

The suggested dosing is:

FixBIOME Repair - two in the morning and two at night
FixBIOME Motility - one in the morning and one at night
FixBIOME Control - one in the morning and one at night

It is possible to take it more intensively than this by adding a lunchtime dose.

Who should take FixBIOME

FixBIOME is definitely worth a try for people with ongoing gut issues.

In particular those with the following issues might find FixBIOME especially helpful:

Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO)
Candida overgrowth
leaky gut syndrome

This is because of lot of the ingredients focus on microbial overgrowth, dysbiosis, improving gut wall lining, supporting bowel regularity and alleviating common digestive complaints.

Also, if you don’t have any of the above issues to a great degree and are just looking to improve your gut health in general, you could always just take FixBIOME Gut Fix Repair. This product focuses less of microbial overgrowth and more on general digestive health, especially improving the health of the gut wall lining.

My experience taking FixBIOME

The first thing I want to say is that I’m currently not the best candidate for FixBIOME as my gut is in pretty decent shape. But I wanted to take a short course so I could share my experience with you.

Here are some of the things I’ve noticed after one week of taking it.

No ‘die off’

As you can see in the card above, they do warn you that you might initially experience some unpleasant symptoms upon taking FixBIOME. These are associated with bad bacteria being cleansed from your system.

I was initially nervous about this, but I can confirm I experienced no such symptoms.

Increased motility

I have noticed that I’m going to bathroom more frequently in the morning now. I wouldn’t say however this was desperately needed in my case.

Aftertaste

One thing I’m not loving is that in the morning a herbaceous taste (sort of like clove) sometimes lingers in my mouth after taking the tablets. It doesn’t stay around too long and isn’t really strong, but I’d prefer it not to happen.

Going forward

I’ll continue to monitor the effects and report back after I’ve completed the short course!

What other people have been saying

FixBIOME currently has an impressive Trustpilot score of 4.5.

I asked ChatGPT to summarise the top 5 things customer were saying on the FixBIOME Trustpilot page and this is what it came back with:

Effective Relief: Many customers reported significant improvements in digestive issues, including reduced bloating and abdominal discomfort, after using FixBIOME products.

Obviously not every review is super positive (6% of people give a 1 star rating, 86% give a 5 star rating), but some are absolutely glowing such as this one:

Cost of FixBIOME

It’s not cheap. But I guess there is a lot of science and evidence backing up all the ingredients in their products.

Here are the current prices for their various courses:

4-week half course - $290
regular 6-8 week course - $450
intensive 8-10 week course - $580
