Rigorous, thorough testing is vital to receiving an accurate SIBO diagnosis, and that diagnosis is a critical first step to getting started on the road to recovery.

Your treatment will be based on these lab results, so it’s crucial to get them done right in the first place.

That’s why it’s so important to be educated about the process, including how to choose the right lab, knowing what machines they use and how they work, what exactly they’re testing for, and how to understand the results.

This knowledge can save you both time and money, and spare you the frustration of heading down the wrong treatment path.

You’ll know more about testing for SIBO than your doctor will.

With accurate testing and clear, understandable results in hand, you’ll become an informed patient who is on the way to SIBO recovery.

A comprehensive look at many of the functional tests that are out there and a discussion about when to use which test and why when you have stopped progressing in your SIBO treatment.
