The next Biofilm video should be up later today! I was hoping to have it ready by lunchtime, but you can see how that panned out haha. I will get back to work on editing after I meet my Patreons for our monthly call*

*Every month, I hold a Zoom call for Livestream Members of my Patreon community <3

Biofilm, Biofilm, BIOFILM!
(Don't say his name three times or he will appear)

I'm wrapping up my mega-humongous-enormous BIOFILM research project and all I can tell you at this point is - OOF, it's been a doozie.

Before I start mapping out the videos that are going to come from all this learnin', I want to ask one more time - what are your biggest questions about biofilms? I want to try to cover as many of your questions as possible when I make these videos!

ETA: Mid-September? Stay tuned!

I remember when I first learned about prokinetics (back then, there was only like two available - oh god I just sounded SO old). I remember thinking "This mechanism makes a LOT of sense. I bet this will be helpful for my IBS and SIBO patients!" So, I excitedly sent a few people home with MotilPro...

Nothing. Nadda. Zilch. NONE of the people who went home with MotilPro thought it did a DAMN THING for them. One person was frankly annoyed that I encouraged them to spend the money on something that didn't work. Ugh.

So, I shrugged it off and kept working with IBS and SIBO without prokinetics.
But, something kept nagging me... whispering... pulling me back.

Around that time, we had some new products come on the market (Motility Activator, Megaguard, Prokine, SIBO MMC). And, of course, every company claimed that *ThEiR pRoDuCt wAs tHe BeeeeeSt.* I knew it was a bunch of marketing BS, but I also KNEW in my heart of hearts that this could help my people.

So, I threw my hands up in the air, said "screw it," and cracked open a bottle of each. I painstakingly put a one-week supply of each into little ziplock baggies, and sent a half a dozen patients home to try them out. "Let them tell me which one is best," I thought. Well, the joke was on me, because they all liked different products 🤣

Fast-forward 10 years, and I've been doing this "speed dating" process ever since. I was really hoping to have found a pattern in the data by now, but I haven't. To this day, I STILL can't tell you which one YOU will like. My only solution is to have you try a bunch of 'em until you find the one that works. The problem, of course, is that this can quickly become costly if you don't have access to the speed dating kits that I make.

All that being said - I am so excited to be offering this here on Youtube now!

For the next TWO WEEKS only, I will be gifting an Herbal Prokinetic Speed Dating kit to the Livestream Members of my Patreon 🥰

⚠️ Please note, however, that international shipping is a frigging nightmare, and I can only offer this to folks in the Continental United States ⚠️

You can find the link to my Patreon in the description of each of my Youtube videos and in my Youtube channel profile. (If I put the URL in this post, Youtube will drastically reduce my reach)

Ps. This was 100% written by me, a human with blood and a pulse, NOT AI 🤪

It was SO nice to connect with some of ya'll on last week's livesteam! I couldn't believe it had been 2.5 hours when I got off. Guess it's true what they say - time flies when you're having fun!

Over the weekend, I reflected on the experience quite a bit, and I kept coming back to something I mentioned toward the end of the stream. I joked that it was always my dream to get paid to learn 🤣 But, for real - I do believe that one of my biggest gifts is my ability to "digest" something complex (see what I did there?) and teach it to others in a way that is easy to understand, practical, and actionable. I'm so grateful to have had the opportunity to do that here on Youtube for the last 9 years. But, as I mentioned on the steam, Youtube itself doesn't pay much (at least, at this channel size). I currently make about 150 USD per month on ad revenue here on Youtube.

Recently, I've run into a bit of a 🥒on this channel. I am by NO means "out of ideas." Quite the contrary - I counted roughly 370 video ideas on my Mega-Google-Sheet-of-Inspo. But, I've covered almost all of the "low hanging fruit" (easy) topics. If I want to continue making videos for Youtube, the topics I have in mind will require a LOT of "back end" research time. And, no, I'm not just going to let AI do the research for me 🤣🙄

Don't worry - I'm getting to the point.

I want to start making videos here on Youtube again...
And I want those videos to be high-quality and well-researched...
And I want the advice to be meaningful and PRACTICAL!
(I want the advice to be HUMAN)

I also want to reconnect with my viewers...
I want to answer your questions and TALK to you...
But, I don't think the Youtube comments section is the best place to do that.
(Honestly, my little crispy nervous system can't handle that)

So, I'm launching TWO new, interactive options over on Patreon.

*Premium Members* can submit 2 questions every month, which will be answered in a livestream here on Youtube

*Livestream Members* are invited to join a LIVE discussion each month - Come meet me, ask your question(s), talk directly with me, and help others with their questions, if you feel called to do so!

To learn more about membership options, please type "Nikki DiNezza" into Patreon or, type patreon ((dot)) com ((slash)) nikkidinezza into your browser....

I don't like being away from Youtube for this long... but I also don't have it in me for a full "come back" yet. I was tossing the following ideas around recently, and thought I'd see if there is any interest.

1. Doing a weekly live vlog
Full disclosure, this would NOT involve me answering health questions or giving health advice. Rather, it would be more of a peek "behind the scenes" of my burnout recovery journey. Topics would likely include things like mental health, self-help topics, making business decisions, navigating patterns like people-pleasing, spiritual stuff, the state of healthcare, AI and how it's affecting healthcare and the world, what's next for me, and just showing what it looks like to be in the "messy middle" of a challenging journey/transition. This would be weekly here on Youtube, though it would be posted on a different channel.

2. Gut-health research focused Substack

I spend a lot of time reading research related to gut health, nutrition, and herbal medicine. So, I thought that it could make for a fun, low-pressure project to give little research summaries as I read new things. Basically, I would pull out a handful of important quotes add my own explanation/summary (written by me, a human, not AI) for each article I read. I imagine that this would be most appealing to people who work in healthcare. But, perhaps it would appeal to some mega nerds, too? This would be a paid thing, but cheap ($5/month or $50/year).

At the end of the day, I'm gonna pick what feels appealing and good to ME, but I'm still curious to see what ya'll say :)
