What can our breath tell us about our gut health?

Nowadays, many frequently experience symptoms like abdominal pain, burping, bloating, diarrhea, abdominal swelling (distension), flatulence, and indigestion. But, what is causing this? The answer is not so simple.

Nowadays, many frequently experience symptoms like abdominal pain, burping, bloating, diarrhea, abdominal swelling (distension), flatulence, and indigestion. But, what is causing this? The answer is not so simple.

However, when a gut-healthy diet fails to improve these symptoms over time, something else may be going on. A doctor can work with you to identify conditions like Crohn’s Disease, Ulcerative Colitis, or Irritable Bowel Syndrome, which require other treatments.

If these conditions have been proven to not be present, a breath test may be recommended to test for small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO). Swipe through to learn more!
