Can I test for SIBO using AIRE 2?

What is SIBO?


We have microbes living in every part of our body. This is totally normal and healthy. As we move through the digestive tract, the number of microbes at each site increases. We have the most microbes in our large intestine. However, sometimes excess microbes can end up in our small intestine. When this happens, a condition called small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) can occur. Those with SIBO often have symptoms of abdominal pain, bloating, nausea, belching, diarrhea and constipation. Some people with SIBO may produce more hydrogen, while others may produce more methane.
