SIBO & Traveler's Diarrhea

 

Statistics show that 15 to 20% of North Americans have the label of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Studies have shown that up to 84% of people given the label of IBS will test positive for SIBO. When you treat the SIBO, the prototypical IBS symptoms subside long term. For over a decade now, research and clinical experience has shown SIBO to be, by far, the #1 root cause of IBS symptoms. Therefore, if 1 in 5 people in North America have an "IBS picture" then almost 1 in 5 people have SIBO.
