Are you stuck on the SIBO hamster wheel of herbal killing sprees, expensive antibiotic rounds, and instant relapses?
In this episode I break down why breath tests often lie, how transit time and colonic gas diffusion skew lab results, and why "SIBO" is an outdated blanket term for three distinct microbial phenotypes: SIBO Proper, Intestinal Methanogen Overgrowth (IMO), and Intestinal Sulfide Overproduction (ISO).
Discover why a negative breath test is wrong about half the time, why archaea in IMO require a completely different strategy than true bacterial overgrowth, and why canned, one-size-fits-all protocols fail complex chronic cases.
