SIBO Breath Testing

What is SIBO? Short explanation of SIBO and its symptoms

  • Bloating
  • Diarrhoea
  • Constipation
  • Abdominal pain
  • Unexplained weight loss

These symptoms may indicate bacterial overgrowth in the small intestine, which produces gases detectable in the breath.

How SIBO Breath Testing Works Steps involved

  • Pre-test dietary preparation
  • Baseline breath sample
  • Ingestion of test sugar (e.g., glucose)
  • Collection of timed breath samples to measure hydrogen and methane levels

The test is non-invasive, and results help confirm or rule out SIBO as the cause of symptoms.

After the Test

Patients can resume daily activities immediately. Results are reviewed by a specialist and followed up with a tailored treatment plan if necessary.
