Episode 35: Is it really SIBO?

The concept of small intestinal bacterial overgrowth is one that is becoming very popular but also widely misunderstood and confusing. Compared to the large intestine, there are very few bacterial species in the small intestine.

Foods that commonly trigger SIBO symptoms include fibrous foods, sugar, sweeteners, prebiotics, and fermented foods.However, not all bloating and distension is SIBO.
