SIBO (small bowel overgrowth) and its effects on the gut - An overview (DG237)

Small bacteria, big problems - small intestinal overgrowth under the microscope

In this episode, we look at the topic of small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) or small intestinal overgrowth.
I give an introductoryoverview of what SIBO actually is and what effects it can have. I explain how bacteria that don't belong in the small intestine get there and discuss possible causes, symptoms and treatment options. I also highlight the importance of a balanced diet and list foods that can cause symptoms of SIBO.

SIBO can lead to avariety of health problems, so it makes sense to address the issue and seek professional help if necessary.

The main points from the episode are

SIBO occurs when bacteria get into the small intestine where they don't belong, and this can lead to fermentation processes that result in gaseous substances such as methane, hydrogen and hydrogen sulphide.
Possible causes of SIBO include an unfavorable environment in the gut, medication, food poisoning, stress and certain illnesses.
The symptoms of SIBO range from bloating and digestive problems to food intolerances, fatigue and nutrient deficiencies.
If you want tolearn more about SIBO and understand how it is diagnosed and treated, listen to the latest episode of the Gut Happiness Podcast. And if you have any experience with SIBO yourself, feel free to share it with me. I look forward to an interesting exchange!
