Positive Sibo

 My new journey and my medicine will arrive this 18. Now the problem is i scared the medicine big 🤦🏽‍♀️ and I not good with it sure alot of pressure I have to go through. 

Small intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO) is a frequent cause of IBS and one of the most common symptom experienced by SIBO patients is gas and bloating. This is due to hydrogen, methane, and hydrogen sulphide gas produced from fermenting bacteria in the small intestine.

These gases are not just uncomfortable, but they can also do damage to the several aspects of digestion

👉 they damage the brush border enzymes-- these enzymes sit in the small intestinal wall and facilitate the last step of digestion before you absorb your food. Without them, you experience even more bloating, inflammation, and often abdominal cramping

👉 they can "deconjugate" bile acids-- a process in which bile (necessary for fat digestion) is damaged -- this can lead to fat malabsorption including fat soluble vitamins and essential fatty acids

👉 gas can also destroy diamine oxidase (DAO), the enzyme necessary to break down food based histamine found in healthy foods such as fermented foods, spinach, and more. This often leads to histamine type symptoms such as

- Migraines/headaches

- Rashes

- Nasal congestion

- Hypotension (low blood pressure)

- Severe fatigue

- Diarrhoea/Constipation

👉 Leaky gut -- yes, SIBO can also cause the dreaded "intestinal permeability" leading to more food reactions, general inflammation, depression/anxiety etc

So treating SIBO is vitally important to get on the road to recovery. Luckily, once SIBO is treated (and prevented from coming back,) healing can be fairly rapid. I always advise tackling SIBO with an experienced SIBO practitioner. My new journey with Sibo🤗.
