Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) occurs when too much bacteria, usually coliforms, grow in the small intestine. Coliform bacteria ferment carbohydrates, which often lead to symptoms like excess gas, bloating, abdominal pain, and diarrhea.
The idea behind the SIBO diet is to maintain gut health by eating foods that are less likely to ferment in the intestine and feed coliform bacteria.
While SIBO is initially treated with antibiotics, "we think that the diet will prevent the bacteria from coming back," says Mark Pimentel, MD, director of the Medically Associated Science and Technology program and associate professor of gastroenterology at Cedars-Sinai health organization.
There has been relatively little research conducted on the SIBO diet, but it has many overlaps with the low-FODMAP diet, which has more scientific backing as a treatment for gastrointestinal issues.

LOL.....bread is my weakness too. I could eat my weight in yeast rolls with “buttah”. At my age if I don’t watch it my weight will look like I’ve eaten a tub full...;)
I discovered frozen bread dough in the frozen food section and gave it a try. Four loafs to a package I was pleasantly delighted how good it is. So easy to bake and my home fills with the aroma of fresh baked bread....Love it.
Subway advertises fresh. The bread comes frozen to be baked
Subway’s bread depends on the clerks and how long they keep it in the warming ovens if it’s good or not.
SIBO is horsecrap. Pun intentional.
I’ve bought that before. Thanks for the reminder. Our granddaughter and I made some homemade yeast bread a few years ago. Turned out beautifully. Thought I had died and gone to Heaven....lol
It’ll clean the pipes.
I take an a.m. supplement of Niagen (NAD+ precursor) and Morning Complete. (It’s pre/probiotics, fiber, and adaptogens)
Farts are funny. The rest not so much.
It doesn’t work well with athletes. I’m aware of some outliers, but most don’t perform well, or maintain muscle mass.
My brother in law fixed his traditional spaghetti dinner when we visited and baked the frozen bread. I didn’t even know it was out there! I was so surprised it’s that good.
