Why We Need to Get Things Moving Before SIBO Treatment

In this episode, Alyssa breaks down one of the overlooked pieces of successful SIBO recovery: making sure the digestive system is actually moving before starting SIBO treatment.

Because when bowel movements are incomplete, sluggish, or backed up, the body has a much harder time clearing fermentation byproducts, gas, and bacterial die-off compounds, which can make treatment feel unbearable.

Inside this episode, we discuss:

  • Why constipation is about more than “not going enough”
  • The connection between methane gas and slowed motility
  • Why many people feel awful during antibiotics or herbal protocols
  • The relationship between constipation, toxin recirculation, and die-off symptoms
  • Why “eat more fiber” often backfires in IBS-C and methane SIBO
  • Why giant salads, fiber supplements, and roughage can worsen fermentation
  • Gentle strategies that often work better for methane-dominant cases
  • Why nervous system regulation plays a major role in digestion and motility
  • The mistake of pushing through severe die-off symptoms
  • Supportive strategies for bowel movements and downstream clearance
