There are several ways to tell if you have SIBO. In this video, I explain how to use sibo testing (including the SIBO lactulose breath test), Sibo symptoms, and other methods to tell if you have SIBO.

Hello, have you heard of bpc 157? I suffered from gastrointestinal issues since I was a teen (in late 40s) about 4 years ago I started taking oral BpC 157 for tendonitis. Bpc is a peptide. Which is a long strain of amino acids. It helps repair the intestinal walls create blood flow to healing wounds and and regulate the microbiome. never , thought I would be able to repair my gut issues. I used to get heartburn five six times a week. Had a very limiting diet and painful gass. I haven't even had heartburn in over 4 years thanks to bpc 157. Also haven't had a tendonitis flare up in 4 years either.
This stuff changed my life for the better. I only wish that I would have found it 30 years ago.
@@JT-un7dc Hi JT, I have heard of it, but I haven't used it yet. A few other viewers have mentioned it to me, and I'm curious about it, I think I'm going to add it as a topic to my video queue. Thank you so much for sharing your experience, and thank you for watching!
Very helpful thank you
You're welcome, thanks for watching!
I had an upper endoscopy procedure a few months ago the results were mild chronic antral gastritis with focal intestinal metaplasia /reactive/regenerative changes found from the gastric polyp so that’s why I’m getting this done because more symptoms especially lots of acid reflux symptoms as well with mucus in my stools
Acid reflux is low stomach acid.
Exc helpful video thank you.I’ve all the symptom’s of sibo inc severe nausea & zero appetite.But I’ve had a sibo test & it’s negative.The problem is I have slow gut transit,is it poss to get an accurate sibo test with this condition? Thanks
Usually slow gut transit time will improve the likelihood of finding SIBO on the test...What type of SIBO test did you do?
Hi Amanda, do you offer SIBO consultation? Do you take insurance? I am looking for a functional practitioner who will prescribe the GI Map for my daughter.
Hi 44 Duet, I do support clients with SIBO and IBS, I offer a comprehensive program to help people go from food anxiety, endless questions and second guessing about their SIBO symptoms to a confident plan for calm digestion. I do also offer the GI MAP and SIBO testing inside the program. However, I do not take insurance, and for full transparency, I am not a doctor. I'm a gut health coach, and fill in all the gaps between your doctor and your daily life! Many people in the program rely on my coaching for their numerous questions and day-to-day decision making, but also maintain a relationship with an MD or ND for prescriptions and sometimes for getting testing covered by insurance.
If any of this sounds like help you could use, I encourage you to book a free discovery call, and we can determine whether my services are a fit for you together. You can schedule that call here: confluencenutrition.com/contact. Hope to meet you!
Hello Amanda, are you familiar with the work of Karen Hurd? She claims that root cause of sibo is a congested bile/liver issue, that's what sibo keeps coming back even after a round of antibiotics. Whats your take on it?
Hi Ty Ty, I have not heard of Karen Hurd or her theory about the gall bladder. In theory, I can agree that some cases of SIBO are caused by this, but I would not agree that ALL cases are caused by the same thing. We are all unique, and there are several other recognized causes, including adhesions/scar tissue, food poisoning, etc. Thanks for watching!
Take celery juice for sibo. Its works. But start slow and build it up
Respectfully, celery juice works for some, but not for others. Having met with hundreds of people with SIBO and IBS, not all of them find it works for them. If you try it out and it works, great! Keep going! If not, don't feel like there's anything wrong with you, just don't keep using it.
Thanks for the great info. I see that you take the time to reply when you can so I will ask this question in the hopes of getting an answer. I had some bloating which isnt as bad now but still slightly present but also I am consistently having a cramping feeling on my right side under my rib cage and and goes around to my kidney area back right. This has not gone away in a couple of months some days i might get lucky and have little or no cramps while others will be worse. I wont feel the cramping all day but definitely it will become present when I am more fatigued or later in the day. Note I have had my gallbladder removed over 20 years a go.....I have been on a PPI over 20 years....My EGD and colonoscopy were clean. So with the episode of bloating followed by this lasting right side cramping I am thinking I have SIBO or something similar. Could I be backed up in the bowels even if I am pretty regular? I went to a GI Dr and he said take Boulardi one cap per day and see how you feel. I have not started that med yet as I think he just threw that out there and collected his copay. He was retiring in a month.... Do my symptoms of bloating and right side cramping sound like SIBO to you?
Possibly...testing is an easy way to get an answer. You can order your own by visiting the TrioSmart website.
Thank you@@ConfluenceNutrition
@@jimv1484 You're welcome :)
I've had gastrointestinal issues for the last 26 years only to find out its SIBO five years ago with a breath test. I still haven't found treatment to help and now my 12 year old started showing symptoms and I'm so nervous for him. 🙁
Hi Randi, are you saying you've tried treatment and failed, or that you haven't yet worked on treatment? There is so much to be done, and so much possible, don't give up hope or feel defeated! If I might be of help, reach out to schedule a free discovery call, so we can see if my services might be helpful.
I'm curious of your thoughts about Dr Ruscio's protocol.
Hi Hannah, I worked on Dr. Ruscio's team for a while, and my approach is similar to his. It's based on cautiously moving ahead, and relying on what you observe to make your next decisions. The order he recommends makes sense to me: work on low hanging fruit first, making whatever progress you can with simple diet and behavior changes, only moving on to more complex therapies or treatments if necessary. I support @drruscio and his approach and methods. :)
Thank you so much for the quick reply! I recently watched your health journey video talking about endometriosis. I'm beginning to wonder if that's my root cause for my health issues that I've been struggling with since my youngest was born nearly 7 years ago. I really appreciate all the information you put out!
@@AllThingsMothering You're welcome, Hannah...best of luck finding your root causes.
My doctor ordered a GI Tract Small Bowel Capsule Endoscopy. I have severe bloating and extreme weight loss. GI workup, stool mapping all negative. SIBO test very low hydrogen. Wondering your opinion on this capsule endoscopy?
Hi PJM, I haven't had the opportunity to read the results or see what it really does for an IBS patient, so I really don't have a thought about it, but as with everything, I think it can be quite helpful in certain situations. I'd be curious to hear from you once it's done if you feel like it was helpful in getting more answers. Thanks so much for watching.
Thanks, I won't be doing it because of the fasting required, can't go that long without food. I just wondered if you had any experience with it. Love your channel.
@@pjm8183 Ah, got it, thanks so much again, for watching!
Hi . I found that I have sibo . Here in Norway dr gave medicine which flagyl 400mg . I asked him if he can give me rafixmain but he said that we use this for liver disorders . Do you think flagyl 400 mg would be help in order to kick out sibo .. thanks in advance
Hi Asim, Flagyl alone is not an evidence-based treatment for SIBO, it is usually given together with rifaximin. You can refer your doctor to the protocols listed on siboinfo.com. Those are the treatment regimens that have been researched in clinical trials.
Ma'am how to know if we have sibo from GI map stool test? We don't have SIBO breath test available in our state
You can't. Sometimes, elevated E. coli or Methanobrever can INDICATE SIBO but this is very imperfect. In this case, treating and observing the changes in symptoms may be the best you can do.
I am treating sibo with FC Cidal and Dysbiocode but 2/3 of the way in it gave me horrible GERD in my chest. Why?? I can’t seem to get rid of it!!
Ouch, sorry to hear it Sarah :( Some of us react to herbs, and those combos are potent, but it's hard to know which ones are bothering you. I have a video where I give some tips for reflux, one of my favorite tools to reduce it is somehting called Reflux Gourmet. Here's the link to that video: ruclips.net/video/80JudNO2V4A/видео.html Thanks for watching!
My GP refused to give me a referral for a GI doctor and did zero testing. I told him I’ve been having issues for years and having a hard time solving it…So in my own. I just went to another doctor but he just focused on the hormone aspect and decided he probably can’t help with the gut problems. I’m laying in bed bloated and gassy totally exhausted and feeling lethargic. :(
Hi Jamie, that sounds challenging. These are definitely the kinds of issues I help clients with. I'd love to meet with you to see if I might be a good fit to support you, would you like to book a call? You can do that here: www.confluencenutrition.com/contact.
My doctor refused to give me the referral to see a gastroenterologist even though at one point I ended up in hospital with a lot of distension. I thought I had parasites maybe...years later issues are still not resolved.
I'm sorry, that must feel so frustrating. :(
I've had sibo or sifo. got tons of tests from traditional doctors. they have no answers. meanwhile, my stomach is in pain and undigested food is the norm.
been taking digestive enzymes, but still quite constipated
Hi Bill, yes, sadly, conventional providers mostly tell you what you DON'T have, rather than what you DO have and what to do about it. Is this something that you're actively looking for help with?
Can you have methane detected in sibo if not detected in microbiome stool sample.
Absolutely...this is a common misperception. Dr. Pimentel and Dr. Rezaie's recent research clearly demonstrated that the gut microbiome in the large intestine is distinct from the gut microbiome in the small intestine. You cannot "infer" SIBO is present from a stool test.
@@ConfluenceNutrition thank you for your answer. 👍
@@squareformat you're welcome!
Hi mam,
Can gi map test rule out SIBO?
No, it will not. Per Dr. Pimentel's research, the microbiome in the small and large intestine are different and distinct.
Can SIBO or IBS cause post nasal drip
Hi Walter, not that I'm aware of, but histamine sensitivity or reflux/LPR can. Thanks for watching!
Hi mam....iam suffering from gastro issues since 2 years.....i was diagnosed with appendix tumour and after doing my surgery i suddered with ds gastro issues like bloating..abdominal gurgling sounds ..cramps ....and pain after defecation .......what could b my issues really related ...will u sugguest smthing....can it b due to sibo........had all my test done no doctor detect anything and finally said it may be ibs......but my abdominal issues r never ending
All my symptoms are completely gone including bloating, abdominal pains/discomfort, chronic fatigue,weakness, diarrhea & persistent foul smell.. I successfully cured my SIBO symptoms & Halitosis/Bad breath from stomach with alternative treatment and natural diet protocol from DR.UWENBOHERBALHOME On RUclips..😓🥀🥀😊
Vomiting food that you ate 28 hours before is another symptom because my gastro told me the methane shuts down the system. All of the other symptoms also/ It is the worst ever.
Hi d, that sounds terrible...and it sounds beyond SIBO, though that may be a contributor, to the realm of gastropareisis...I hope you're able to get treatment to help!
@@ConfluenceNutrition It was terrible. My gastro told me to stop eating anything with sugar in it. I have and no more SIBO attacks. Thank goodness.
In his office with no prep, on his breath test machine my methane level was through the roof.
@@ConfluenceNutrition One has to wonder if the number of enemas I received from my mother even as a late teen had anything to do with my messed up system .
@@dwheeler016 hmmm, not sure about that, but in any event, it sounds like getting the methane bacteria under control might be very helpful for your system.
The phrase "if your doctor is willing to work with you" speaking so badly about the health sistem.
I know, it's definitely frustrating for so many people!
Now I know I have Sibo😭
Hi Pink, I'm sorry if that feels overwhelming, but there is definitely hope for healing. This is what I help my clients with. If you're needing help, let's talk. ❤
