Have you ever experienced bloating so bad that you can’t button your pants? If you experience gas or bloating regularly or have been diagnosed with IBS, there’s a strong likelihood you may have small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO). Even if you don’t experience symptoms like abdominal swelling to an extreme, any amount of bloating is not normal. Bloating is a sign of intestinal inflammation, which is one of the more common SIBO symptoms.
Before we get to the step-by-step process to help eliminate SIBO, it’s important to know how to spot and identify symptoms.
