Do you suffer from bloating, gas or recurrent abdominal pain? The SIBO Breath Test can help identify whether you have bacterial overgrowth in your small intestine, a common and often underdiagnosed cause of chronic digestive symptoms.

Descripción

The SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth) Breath Test is a non-invasive test that measures the levels of hydrogen and methane in your breath after ingesting lactitol. These gases are produced by bacteria when they ferment carbohydrates in the small intestine, where they should not normally be present explaining persistent digestive symptoms such as bloating, abdominal pain, diarrhoea or constipation. Bacterial overgrowth is detected using the breath test, the reference functional method for identifying this condition.

¿Where is it done?

Take the test comfortably at home, with no appointments or travel required. You will receive a kit with everything you need and simple instructions to collect the sample yourself, privately and at your own pace.

What Does It Include?

• 1 container box for the elements.
• 8 tubes for collecting exhaled air samples.
• 1 straw.
• 1 sachet with substrate (Lactitol monohydrate 10 grams).
• 1 symptom tracking sheet to be filled out by the user.
• 1 instruction sheet.

¿Is it suitable for me?

This test is for you if: You frequently suffer from bloating, gas or abdominal pain with no clear cause. You have diarrhoea, constipation or changes in your bowel habits. You suspect bacterial overgrowth in your small intestine. You want to confirm or rule out SIBO with a non-invasive test before starting treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is SIBO and how is it diagnosed?

SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth) occurs when bacteria from the colon excessively colonise the small intestine. The SIBO Breath Test is the reference non-invasive diagnostic method: it measures hydrogen and methane levels in the breath after ingesting lactitol, detecting abnormal fermentation in the small intestine.

Is this a safe test suitable for everyone?

Yes, it is a non-invasive and safe test, suitable for adults of any age. It only requires following the indicated preparation guidelines.

How long does the SIBO Breath Test take?

The complete test takes approximately 3 hours. Eight breath samples are collected at different time points after ingesting the lactitol substrate. The entire process is carried out at home using the self-collection kit, which you will receive within 48 hours.

What is the difference between SIBO and intestinal dysbiosis?

Intestinal dysbiosis is a general imbalance of the intestinal microbiota. SIBO is a specific subtype involving bacterial overgrowth in the small intestine (where very few bacteria are normally present). To assess overall dysbiosis, the Clinical Gut Microbiome is the most comprehensive test available.
