Digestive Problems Caused by SIBO. SIBO is a major cause of Digestive problem. Symptoms can include Diarrhea, Gas, Nausea, Bloating, Constipation, Weight loss, Fatigue and more. It can also contribute to Chrone’s Disease, Celiac Disease, and Diabetes. It can also slow the movement of waste products through the small intestine. SIBO is also prevalent in overweight kids.

What is SIBO? Before we go looking into what does SIBO do in the Body, let’s see what can cause SIBO to begin with? Can we try to fix it at this stage, or just let it get worse and then treat it? Why wait for it to get like that? Isn’t this the first stage of what we call ”Early” as in treat it as early as possible? SIBO can cause Fibromyalgia and Auto Immune Diseases, and those are just two so there’s more things to consider here other than just SIBO! Having SIBO is bad enough but throw in Fibromyalgia or an Auto Immune Disease with it! Not for your worse enemy even! If you look up our blog on Auto-Immune Disorders, I have listed about a dozen or so Auto Immune Diseases. None of these Diseases are a piece of cake or a walk in the park. SIBO also causes Gut Inflammation and that can lead to ”Leaky Gut”, and then a cascade of effects, not meant to be pleasurable. More on Leaky Gut in our next Blog.
Studies done indicate that almost 80% of people who have been diagnosed with IBS test positive for SIBO. So, what does this mean? Well, if you have SIBO and are still having issues with your gut, why not get checked for IBS? A ratio of four out of five people having SIBO, I would think it wouldn’t hurt to get tested especially if your one of the four out of five, ask your Doctor what he thinks?
The Terpene Answer
Inflammation is prevalent in SIBO, so that’s a good place to start with. We have a dozen Anti-Inflammation Terpenes that we put in there to combat the Inflammation for starters. Another way that we treat SIBO is with Terpenes that are research proven to help with your stomach at the source. The interesting thing here is that as we help the SIBO with Terpenes, we are actually treating it as very beneficial true side effect. More and more uses for Terpenes ae being discovered every day. Terpenes are the future for Natural Pant Based medicine!
