Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth
SIBO is one of the most common causes of persistent gas, bloating, and abdominal discomfort
that I repeatedly see in my Functional Medicine clinic. SIBO can also cause fatigue, brain fog,
and an overall sense of lethargy after meals as well. If you experience these symptoms and feel
worse after eating (especially when eating higher sugar and carbohydrate rich meals), then
SIBO and its kissing cousin FIBO (Fungal Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth) are at the top of the
list for likely offenders. I struggled with SIBO for years until I realized what was going on. My
health (physical and mental) dramatically improved once I changed to a low carb FODMAPs diet
and began taking the proper herbal supplements.
SIBO Testing
If you suffer from gas, bloating, abdominal distension, stomach pain, constipation, and/or
diarrhea which is typically worse after eating, then order a SIBO breath test kit through this link.
If you test positive for SIBO, follow the treatment protocol below and retest for SIBO again in 3
months after beginning this protocol. Additional Functional & Integrative blood draw bundles and
test kits are available through your META Medical Lab Shop.
SIBO Treatment Protocol
Order your SIBO Treatment Protocol supplements through your META Medical Fullscript
account.
These supplements have been specifically selected by Dr. Clayton Bell to treat your SIBO (small
intestinal bacterial overgrowth). Follow this treatment plan for 3 months to experience life
changing improvement in your gas, bloating, abdominal distention, energy, mental clarity, and
mood. Following the FODMAP Food Plan shopping list and using the FODMAP Comprehensive
Guide (documents attached with prescribed supplements on Fullscript) is just as important as
these potent plant medicines. The more you follow the FODMAP Food Plan, the quicker you will
clear out the SIBO and begin feeling better than you have in months (or maybe even years in
my case).
