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. When SIBO happens, the bacteria in the large intestine translocate to the small intestine causing fermentation, bloating, and excessive distension. Foods that commonly trigger SIBO symptoms include fibrous foods, sugar, sweeteners, prebiotics, and fermented foods.
However, not all bloating and distension is SIBO. This is where confusion comes from. In this episode, I discuss how to tell it really is SIBO, SIBO tests, what causes it, and what to do about it.
