There are several tests for Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth but how do you know you're using the right one? In today's show, Australia's leading SIBO specialist, Dr. Nirala Jacobi joins Rebecca Coomes to discuss SIBO testing options and the difference between methane dominant vs hydrogen dominant SIBO. She discusses the different treatment options for hydrogen and methane SIBO and what herbal treatment options she likes to use. Dr. Jacobi developed the SIBO Bi-Phasic Diet protocol and explains how it works and why she prefers to starve the bacteria during treatment. She also discusses what happens when patients become overly sensitive to everything, and what histamine, oxilate and salicylate intolerances are.
