Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO or BOSI) occurs when bacteria invade the normally bacterial-less small intestines. This promotes inflammation, absorption issues, bloating, gas, abdominal pain, diarrhea, and other serious digestive issues.
By testing both hydrogen and methane, this SIBO breath test can help indicate wherein the small intestine the overgrowth is since levels of each gas vary in location.
Studies show that SIBO can also be attributed to:
Leaky Gut
Autoimmune conditions such as Hashimoto’s, IBD, Scleroderma, and Celiac Disease
Osteoporosis
Fibromyalgia
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
Anemia
Carbohydrate Intolerance
What’s Being Tested:
Hydrogen and methane for the detection of SIBO
Testing includes drinking lactulose
Notes:
Do not order this test if you are allergic to lactulose or are diabetic.
comments: Liked how the requisition form was mostly filled out. Instructions easy to understand and follow.
The price was probably the best around for Great Plains Testing

comments: Just FYI, My requisition email sat in my spam folder for 3 weeks. It would have been helpful when I purchased the test to make it clear that the requisition paper would be emailed as I was waiting for it to come through the postal service.
