• Unexplained digestive issues that affect your quality of life
• Food intolerances (e.g., celiac disease or lactose intolerance) which can make SIBO worse

Important Reasons to Test Yourself for SIBO

SIBO is a very common condition, but it presents similar symptoms to other gastrointestinal problems. Therefore, it’s crucial to rule out other potential issues, like inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and celiac disease.  

Our SIBO breath test uses a proven diagnostic method to confirm bacterial imbalances. It also provides a starting point for improved digestive health. Proper treatment can restore the balance of the bacteria in your small intestine and significantly improve your quality of life.
