Hi! I'm Phil, the bald guy at Silver Fern™. Yes, we're actually in the business of helping people. Shocking, right? But seriously, we’re here to tackle gut issues with the right approach. After over 10 years of helping customers deal with gut problems, we’ve seen a lot—trust me.Now, can we solve every gut problem ever? Nope. But when folks follow the right steps (and don't improvise), success happens! I can pretty much predict who's going to crush it and who might struggle (more on that in the slides).Our customer service team? Their mission is simple: make sure you start with...

Berberine didn’t work for me either. Until I found what did. So, when scientists introduced me to Berbevis® with aXivite®, I wasn’t excited. Why would I be? Everything else had failed. Honestly, I was skeptical. Hey, I’m Phil. I’m a "husky" guy who’s trying to be fit. I work out several times a week, but my diet? It’s a constant struggle. When I do eat healthy, the results are minimal—nothing worth bragging about. And don’t even get me started on diet products. Total scams. Lies. They never work.So when the science team brought me this new formula, I didn’t believe...

IF you have only completed the first step and you are still bloated its because you have not addressed points 2-6 yet.IF you have only started to cleanup the gut for a couple months and are still bloated it means the pathogens are not completely gone yet, inflammation still exists, and the gut barrier still needs to be rebuilt.IF you have completed both Steps 1 and 2 but are still bloated its because you may have had pancreas issues. This means you need to have established motility, built up the gut barrier, turned off the translocation of pathogens to the...

Helping with SIBO and IBS: Our SpecialtyWe’ve made helping people with SIBO and IBS our niche, and after years of study and success, it’s safe to say we’ve got it down!If you have SIBO what should you do?First things first: there are 3 types of SIBO (Hydrogen, Methane, and Hydrogen Sulfide), and it’s often tied to other issues. So, it's best to tackle those at the same time too.Your symptoms tell us a lot! Methane SIBO (also known as IMO) can slow down your system, but keep in mind that you might have slow motility in your stomach and rapid...

Just because we help people get off of the laxative forms of magnesium does not mean we don't like magnesium. I love magnesium. I take it daily. There are different types of magnesium. I love magnesium glycinate and magnesium L-Theonate for the many health benefits they offer.

Did you know doctors once told me to ditch my gallbladder to solve my digestive issues? They weren’t even sure if I needed it. Spoiler: turns out it’s pretty useful. I kept mine, and guess what? No more discomfort—no surgery required. BOOM.When we talk about gut health, we’re looking at the big picture—including the gallbladder. Our top-down approach (AKA "digestive health"), targets the whole system. We don’t claim to know all your issues—odds are, neither do you! But we’ve got you covered because the protocols assume everything is broken. Do you have gallbladder discomfort? Are you worried about it? Or...

We get asked about colostrum a lot. Here's my two cents: Colostrum is great. Works great. There's lots of good research on most of it. We like it. No problem at all. HOWEVERCleanse is just better. More binding. Higher quality. Less expensive for what you are buying. Significantly more per-ingredient specific research supporting it. It's a much better bang for your buck. And it does not have lactose/dairy issues associated with it. Do we like colostrum? I do. But we chose the ingredient in Cleanse for a reason. It works better. It's proven. That's it. This is why we chose...

Let's dive into the science and I'll do my best to NOT pick a fight.✅️Fact: If a person rapidly breaks down the offensive proteins in gluten before they cause major harm, it can both reduce the impact for people with food intolerances AND THOSE with Celiac. This is a good option to help reduce the impact of being "glutened." This is not to suggest that enzymes address Celiac Disease nor am I suggesting that a person with Celiac should not eat a strictly gluten diet. ✅️Fact: Many people that think they have a gluten intolerance, do in fact, have a...

If you address kid's issues early on they do better later on. Further, children bounce back faster than adults. This is great for us parents that are doing our best but fall short. Hi. My name is Phil. I'm the bald guy in our videos that apparently looks ornery. I have 5 children. My kids are why we started focusing on gut health. Probiotics can be a big part of this. Here is cheat sheet for you you on what you should be looking for in a children's probiotic: 1) Drives out pathogens, increases beneficial bacteria and microbes, and restores...

Obviously, a broken gut barrier allows pathogens to leak into the rest of the body, which triggers inflammation. From there, you get all sorts of issues. Silver Fern™ is a gut health company. Gut health is our area of expertise. It is what we know. We are good at it. Gut Repair is our "add on at any time" product for gut issues. Hi. My name is Phil. I'm the direct ornery looking bald guy in our videos. I got over my gut issues years ago (bad bloating, food intolerances and allergies, reflux/indigestion, etc.). I still take Gut Repair daily....

It doesn't have to be expensive.FIBER contains literally up to 3X more prebiotic fiber than traditional fiber supplement brands, 10 grams of prebiotic fiber per scoop. WOW! That's like 2 to 3 scoops to hit your daily needs in fiber. Imagine just adding 1 scoop to an already healthy diet. Did you know dietary fiber not only stimulates good bacteria (bifidobacterium, lactobacillus, prevotella, etc.), but it also suppresses pathogenic bacteria (E. coli)? 💯 (6)Did you know that low fiber increases your risk for issues like diverticulitis and IBS? Ouch! (7,8)What do you have to lose by adding an inexpensive but...

The secret isn't to get children to "take a probiotic." The secret is to get them to take the right one. Like many of you, we try to give our five children meals and encourage them to choose nutritious snacks. As you know, this process comes with some battles. With all the games and activities our children are engaged in comes "treats," the sugary kind. Holidays come with special seasonal desserts. Travel is accompanied by eating out. Everywhere we look, our children are running into options that may disrupt their gut health, which then affects them. So, we work hard...

When in doubt:1) Assume everything is a cause2) Help the entire system top-to-bottom3) Make sure motility is activated in step 1 and detox pathways are open before doing a thorough cleanup4) Take the time needed to thoroughly clean the entire system of the issue (quick and fast can cause lingering issues that build up a resistance)5) Once motility is activated and the stomach lining is strong again, use a pull apart and binding action against H. pylori (as well as other pathogens)6) Assume you have more than just H. pylori. H. pylori overgrowth commonly overlaps with SIBO (bacterial overgrowth), candida...

I fully admit I rub many folks the wrong way. My filter switch is broken. And I feel more comfortable with people knowing everything. It is a safer place for me. I don't have anything to hide. I don't really care what people think because I know EVERYONE is screwing up on a regular basis so why should I spend my time worrying about what others think? BUT...My objective is pure. I built Silver Fern™ to help people. 100% true. I am a total capitalist and I believe in capitalism. But Silver Fern™ (for me) is all about helping people....

Hi, I'm Phil. After years of helping people, I've noticed one HUGE mistake that keeps popping up:People think there's only one issue.Test results, symptoms—they all seem to point to one problem. So, they tackle that one issue and then wonder why they still have symptoms. Happens every day.Here's the truth:Most people don’t have just one issue. They have multiple, overlapping problems that involve the entire digestive system. (Surprise! Everything's connected, so one area affects the others.)We used to play the Whac-A-Mole game, too: Fix one thing, then the next, then back to the first thing... and on it goes. It's...

We care about organic, non-GMO, and natural certifications. Obviously. Our science team are sticklers for quality—like, obsessive. But you won’t see us plastering those claims all over. Why? Because while those labels are cute, what really matters to us is the COA (certificate of authentication) and third-party testing that proves the product is safe and effective. AND THEN we really need to see that the ingredients are actually backed by gold-standard clinical research. Spoiler alert: A lot of “science” looks good on paper but doesn’t actually do much in real life. Oh, and by the way, we make sure the...

Several years ago, I also struggled with severe stomach issues: reflux, heartburn, nausea, and stomach pain. Now, I can eat whatever I want without any problems. I've been pain-free for years, and I no longer rely on acid blockers.Hi, my name is Phil. We started Silver Fern™ to help my daughter with her severe stomach pain, bloating, and constipation caused by AMPS (Amplified Musculoskeletal Pain Syndrome). As we delved deeper, we realized that issues like slow motility aren't limited to the colon or constipation alone. They often involve the stomach and small intestine as well, leading to conditions like GERD,...

"Just stop eating so much, exercise, and eat healthy. Do that and you will lose the weight!" "Eating and exercise is the answer. Do that and you'll stop overeating." These comments comes up a lot in post comments. FACT: If you stop eating so much you will likely be able to lose weight easier.FACT: Exercise helps with weight loss.FACT: Eating healthy helps with weight loss. Now that all the acknowledgements are out of the way, let's deal in the day-to-day reality for most of us. FACT: I exercise 5 to 6 days a week and eat healthy. I still really...

Hi. My name is Phil. I have personally helped people one-on-one for years now with a wide range of issues. In Utah (where we live), we get a lot of LDS missionaries who have served ecclesiastical missions in foreign countries where they have developed or contracted many parastic or major gut imbalances. We see a lot of "major imbalance" issues (parasites, candida, SIBO, IBS, IBD, skin problems, chronic constipation, major diarrhea, etc.) So, you might say we "practice" what we do a lot. We know what works because we help a lot of people one-on-one. Here are some points that...

Nothing makes eating healthy and exercising better than seeing results. Nothing makes eating a healthy diet easier than feeling full from it and not feeling like you are starving. Hi. I'm Phil. I'd be lying if I said, "Gut health will make you super skinny and lean. Improved gut health is the answer to losing weight." I have tried it for 9 years now. Reflux, heartburn, and bloating gone! No more sinus infections. Gone. I can eat what I want. Food freedom. COVID didn't do crap to me. But I'll be damned if I still couldn't drop the extra weight....

Do you know what makes eating healthy and exercising actually work?Metabolism!And what helps you avoid that "always starving" feeling?Metabolism!Let's be real—the goal is to look good, not just shrink away, right? That's where Metabolism comes in.Sure, there are some popular weight loss meds out there. People drop pounds fast—but it all goes, butt and everything!For about 7 to 8 years, I've tried every award-winning "weight loss" ingredient (from the US to Europe). Seriously, I've tested almost all of them. Nada. I started thinking my fat was glued to my bones! You could say I'm more "husky" by nature. 😂Then, a...

For years, you've been asking for something that helps with "weight loss." So, we thought, why not tweak that a little? How about this: "I want to look lean, healthy, and muscular. I want to look good." Sounds better, right?Now, we know there are some super popular meds out there that promise quick weight loss (muscles and all). But we decided to take a different path. What if we focused on burning fat, boosting lean muscle, and skipping all those stomach issues? What if there was something that actually supports your gut—strengthens the gut barrier, kicks out the bad stuff,...

Laxatives are fast...and they make the issue worse.Acid blockers are fast...and they make the issue worse.Medications are fast...and come with a massive list of warnings and other medications to offset the side effects of the first medications. Please be aware, we have personally done the protocols for our own issues. Please be aware, we use these protocols on friends and family ALL THE TIME. We are aware of what it is like and how the protocols/products work.Let's put things into perspective. Would you ever expect a contractor to fully renovate your home in under 6 months? Not if you want...

To be direct and to the point, there are two different starting points for IBD issues:⁠⁠1) Yes, you have slow motility issues (constipation, reflux, heartburn, indigestion, low stomach acid, gastritis, gastroparesis, GERD, burping, belching, etc.) and need to first start by activating motility to allow for pathogens to be driven out, inflammation to go down, and the gut to be rebuilt (key compounds like butyrate to be increased).⁠OR⁠⁠2) No, you don't have slow motility issues. You have the opposite or neither and just need help with the other issues of IBD. ⁠⁠Hi. I'm Phil. The ornery looking bald guy in...

❓️"I have been using Motility for 2 months now. It doesn't seem to work. Should I stop using it and go back to laxatives?"Me: Laxative use is likely why your issues are so bad. The dosing and term for bad constipation is 2 capsules of Motility twice daily (4 capsules total) and 2 scoops of Reflux or capsules of Regularity daily for 90+ days. 90 days is the average time it takes for most people to regain non-forced regularity and to keep it. If a person has had constipation for a long time could it take longer than 90 days?...

Change of diet and DAO enzymes with catalase are the standard response to histamine intolerance, which are great short-term "band-aids." What you really need is to get rid of the pathogens tearing down your small intestinal barrier, which also usually contribute to excessive histamine production. And then rebuild the barrier so you can once again secrete DAO enzymes on your own. Hi. I'm Phil. The bald man on our account that prefers to be direct.Here are the Silver Fern® rules for success with histamine intolerance:1) If you currently have issues contributing to bacterial imbalances (slow motility, low stomach acid, etc.),...

I want to be honest. Here is my personality in full:1) I feel way more comfortable being super direct, frank, open and honest. It's a safe place for me and an awkward place (sometimes) for others (Tiffany). I'd actually prefer people not buy anything, than buy something and have a poor experience. 2) I personally like direct and frank answers. So, I expect others may want the same. When we say "help" we actually mean we desire to fully address the issue. We legally can only say "Help", "Promote", "Aid", and "Support". But our objective is to make it so...

"And I have bloating and gas and constipation and diarrhea and reflux and heartburn and histamine issues and nausea and gluten intolerance, and FODMAP issues and...Did I mention I look pregnant by the end of the day?" Hi. I'm Phil. I'm direct. Why do most approaches to gut issues fail? Simple. 1) People start in the wrong spot (Cleanup is always first, right? WRONG! Probiotics are the best product for everything. WRONG!)2) People typically address "one" issue when there are actually many issues all connected and all can cause bad bloating. 3) People think the solution should be fast, one...

When someone asks us to help them address an issue, we assume they either didn't find a "band-aid" option that worked well or they wanted get away from the band-aid approach. We assume people may want to have a start AND a stop time with a goal to graduate and move on with life. Please don't limit the products capability or what they may do by the names on the bottles. Cleanse isn't a laxative and HELPS with diarrhea/loose stools. Its a "cleaner", not a "flusher." Reflux helps with reflux, heartburn, etc. AND constipation in the colon. Get it? While...

The question isn't, "Does it work?" This has been answered in over 45 human research studies and in over 10 years of use. The questions are:❓️"How much IgG do I need to take and for how long in order for it to work?" ❓️"What else can I take with it to help address the issues better?" Hi. I am Erin Greenberg MS. As someone on the Silver Fern™ science team specializing in lab work and having suffered with IBS myself, I am particularly interested in IBS and SIBO issues. Here are the set of rules for success: (1) Jumping directly...

Do you have chronic constipation issues? If you take the right approach you will succeed. If not, you will fail. It's that simple. Like it or hate it, this is the truth.(1) Prioritize the Basics: Regular exercise, a healthy diet rich in digestive-friendly fiber (if you don’t have gastroparesis), proper hydration, and stress management are key to maintaining regularity.(2) Ease Off Laxatives: If you're dependent on laxatives or enemas, you can start reducing them between weeks 2 to 8, or once you notice looser stools. Don’t stop them abruptly.(3) Activate Motility Naturally: It takes 30 to 60 days for mild...

The 4 major mistakes most people make when it comes to stomach issues.❌️ People think a "GUT" cleanup is best for the stomach, so they start in the wrong spot. Stomach issues are stomach problems. The stomach and esophagus are different than the gut. ❌️ People think major issues that have existed for a long time are fixed in 30 days or less. ❌️ They believe too much stomach acid is their issue, it's likely the opposite. ❌️ They think that just because they are regular (not constipated) they don't have slow motility issues. FALSE. You can have diarrhea /...

Whether you’re on anti-depressants or not, saffron is amazing!Hi. This is Phil. There are natural alternatives clinically proven to help with depression, anxiety, ADHD, and other issues. But don’t settle for just any saffron—quality matters. The effectiveness of saffron can vary greatly depending on its potency and extract standardization.We searched high and low to find the perfect saffron extract, and we found one that truly works—no question about it.As someone who struggles with depression, I take 1 capsule (30 mg) in the morning and another in the evening (60 mg per day total). It’s made a significant difference for me....

Let's face it: most "mood products" just don't deliver. You've heard the clinical claims, and maybe even tried a few, only to be left disappointed. We were in the same boat, experimenting with various ingredients and even different types of saffron, but nothing seemed to hit the mark.Then we discovered Safr'Inside®, and everything changed. This ingredient truly surprised us. Give it 6 to 8 weeks, and you'll notice the difference. For those facing more severe mood challenges, we recommend taking one capsule in the morning and another in the evening. Stick with it for two months, and you'll understand why...

There's a reason Ultimate Probiotic is our top selling product: It works!How is it different than traditional probiotics? Ultimate Probiotic contains gut management strains. It does not overload your system with tens of billions of CFUs of Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium strains. Here's why:(1) Too many beneficial bacteria can also cause an imbalance. An imbalance is the foundation for gut problems. (2) The target for gut health is a wide range of beneficial bacteria and compounds, not an overload of a few specific strains. Notice that Ultimate Probiotic only contains 8 billion CFU of a few gut management strains. This is...

As someone trained in laboratory analysis, the details of how specific probiotic strains modulate the microbiome, affect the immune system, and interact with pathogens fascinate me. Hi. I am Erin Greenberg, MS. Whether you know it or not, your digestive system is under attack daily. Pathogens enter the body daily by way of the respiratory tract, gastrointestinal tract (food and water consumed), skin, mucous membranes (eyes, nose, mouth, and genital areas), urogenital tract, and direct entry into the bloodstream (mosquito bites, etc.). Whether you know it or not, your immune system is under attack daily:Pathogen exposureEnvironmental pollutantsStressPoor nutritionLack of sleepSedentary...

Do you know how your probiotic is helping your immune system?Do you know how your probiotic is helping your gut barrier? Do you how your probiotic is helping with nutrient absorption? We know these things with ours. The B. subtilis strain aids in nutrient absorption by:1️⃣ Increasing villus height and the villus height-to-crypt depth ratio in the intestines, enhancing the surface area for absorption.2️⃣ Boosting digestive enzyme activity by promoting the production of enzymes like proteases and amylases, improving digestibility.3️⃣ Balancing the microbiome for better nutrient absorption and gut function.4️⃣ Increasing short-chain fatty acids, which enhance nutrient absorption.5️⃣ Improving nutrient...

You didn’t think those sneaky pathogens just chill out in your digestive system, did you? Oh no, they leak out, spreading chaos everywhere!Hi. I am Erin Greenberg, MS. One common issue I frequently see is people having the same issues coming back over and over and over again: Candida overgrowth, urinary tract issues, etc. In my view, here's why...Most “gut cleanups” are more like a half-hearted dusting. They bang up pathogens a bit, but no heavy scrubbing takes place. And, though people use the term, "leaky gut" a lot, they may not understand that this means the pathogens may have...

Do you ever feel like you have been "unplugged"? Guess what? Low testosterone isn't just a "guy thing"—women can face it too. By age 40, a woman's testosterone levels can drop by 50%.

⚠️Prebiotic fiber is NOT all the same.⚠️"I took fiber and it made me feel HORRIBLE." Gotcha. We hear you. Sensitive Gut Fiber just simply works different than traditional fiber. Not the same. *Sunfiber® (partially hydrolyzed guar gum) and Inavea™ Baobab Acacia fiber operate differently from other fibers by selectively promoting beneficial gut bacteria and helping minimizing adverse effects like gas production and bloating, making them particularly effective for helping manage discomforts associated with SIBO, IBS, and IBD.*Why take this blend of prebiotic fiber if you have constipation issues with major gut problems? Sunfiber® and Inavea™ Baobab Acacia fiber help with...

Why does addressing constipation take so long and how is Silver Fern™ different?Let's geek out for a minute.🧑🏻‍🔬Constipation can really mess with your gut's rhythm. Your GI system relies on peristalsis, those wave-like muscle contractions that keep things moving. Chronic constipation can slow everything down, turning your colon into a sluggish, unmotivated mess.Ever heard of "lazy bowel" or "colon inertia?" It's when your colon just doesn’t feel like doing its job. Frequent use of enemas can make this worse. Then there's "laxative-induced lazy bowel" – your colon becomes a couch potato, relying on laxatives to get things moving, and eventually,...

Hi. I'm Rob, CN, HHC, WMS. As a professional trainer, certified nutritionist, and someone with over 17 years in the medical industry, I am extremely familiar with the pros and cons of many types of diets.

As a member of the science team at Silver Fern™ that also specializes in motility issues (constipation, reflux, heartburn, etc.), I am aware of ways to help offset the drawbacks...

Many individuals with gallbladder sludge are asymptomatic. However, some individuals report experiencing abdominal pain, particularly in the upper right quadrant beneath the ribs.Greetings, I am Hannah Bynum, RN, BSN, CPhT. In my roles as a registered nurse and certified pharmacy technician, I have observed that the standard medical intervention for gallbladder issues is often cholecystectomy (gallbladder removal). While this approach is effective for many, it is important to recognize that gallbladder removal can predispose individuals to bile acid malabsorption (BAM), a condition that often results in severe watery diarrhea.In cases where individuals present with discomforts of gastrointestinal motility disorders or...
