Top 3 reasons people relapse with SIBO

[@bendashin]

I benefited so greatly from a 14 day fast, it reset my whole existence to be honest. I did a hypnosis treatment specific to gut to change my PTSD around the years' worth of SIBO. No, sugar, no carbs, no starch, no alcohol, no coffee, no sweets, it has been tough, but I have noticed such a change, especially giving up the coffee it was such a trigger. I know everyone is unique, so all info is helpful but not always for you, keep up the hard work my fellow SIBO survivors, we can do this! Thank you, the healthy gut, for posting.

I feel like everyone at this point has sibo or similar gut issues!

How are you feeling now? And how did you fasted?

I was diagnosed with IBS last year, but I believe that SIBO is at the root. I am very health- conscious... I exercise daily, eat enough fiber, fruits and vegetables, don't smoke or drink, stay hydrated, etc. But nothing helps! I am looking for a new gastroenterologist and will cut gluten and start a FODMAP diet. My main symptoms are bloating, gas, ( sulfuric) constipation and intermitent loose, bulky stools. I have not had the breath test yet or actually any testing - I am curious as to what they will reveal, and hope to heal soon.

I suffered bloating constipation & pain in upper gut ( not heartburn or gerd) after eating. So I overdosed on fermented foods and it sent my body into allergic mode so now I’m histamine intolerant. What a nightmare it’s been… so many food sensitivities now. Just did breath test to rule out sibo n I have IMO ( intestinal methane overgrowth) a relative of sibo. I’m on lots of supplements & herbs to try eradicate the overgrowth 🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽 then I’ll be ready to heal the gut… in the meantime I have to do the low/no histamine & low FODMAP diet. Beyond frustrating. But hopeful I’ll get through this…

What specific physiological change do you see when people use a prokinetic (and it works)?

[@affordableaquariumservices1663]

Breath test are in accurate. There was a study were normal. People took the Sibo breath test and it came back positive going down that rabbit hole of antimicrobials and anabiotic’s leads to a state of depression. It makes everything worse.

How can you test for those various factors.

[@TheHealthyGuts]

Through a variety of tests. The SIBO breath test is where you would start (if you don't know if you have SIBO, or if you have cleared it). You want to do a lactulose breath test. Other tests can be endoscopy, stool analysis, smart pill, etc but what testing you do will be dependant on what is going on in your body.
