SIBO Testing Kit

Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) symptoms lasting for days, weeks or months occurs in up to 13 million UK residents, the majority female.  Post-exclusion of other pathologies, a diagnosis of Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth is frequently made which can be treated with antibiotics or natural antimicrobials.

The analysis of alveolar breath hydrogen and methane, fermentation products of intestinal bacteria post-ingestion of carbohydrates, is a well-proven method for screening patients for SIBO (and carbohydrate intolerances), enabling both rapid diagnosis and treatment monitoring. Our easy-to-use home-sampling test kits enhance the availability of this diagnostic methodology.

We have undertaken the most comprehensive analytical and validation process for SIBO testing. Our methodology utilises 10 samples (at 20-minute intervals) which allows for a higher degree of reporting accuracy compared to protocols using  fewer samples.  This, combined with our experience in the interpretation of tests in this class, enables us to fully support practitioners in the interpretation of these test results.
