Company providing home-based breath test kits to diagnose Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (#SIBO) & fructose/lactose/sucrose intolerance in all 🇨🇦



Recently, we validated #SIBO and its definition in a large scale small bowel sequencing trial. Proteobacteria are the key to SIBO and we validate >10^3 cutpoint in #PLOSONE: The duodenal microbiome is altered in small intestinal bacterial overgrowth dx.plos.org/10.1371/journa…




Our recent publication in #AmJGastro based on TARGET-3 trial: Lactulose breath test is the ONLY known determinant of response to rifaximin in #IBS diarrhea patients The odds of response is 4.3X higher in pts with + baseline breath test journals.lww.com/ajg/Fulltext/p… #microbiome #SIBO

.@Krutika_Lakhoo presenting the largest cohort ever reported on the challenging scenario of elevated baseline hydrogen during breath testing in #SIBO patients. An overlooked subgroup that is now phenotyped in this study. #IBS #ACG2019 #microbiome

Should breath testing be conducted prior to SIBO treatment? View the full debate authored by @MarkPimentelMD and Eamonn Quigley : agaperspectives.gastro.org/category/debat…


#sibosuidal I am..when I'm extra bloated and in such pain already for days with no relief...I break..yep it's a full on 100% dairy cookies and cream milkshake. Because I can't imagine worse pain than the current situation...cheers!







.@GabrielaGSLeite presents the most comprehensive assessment of microbiome in #SIBO to-date. SIBO is associated with: -Lower diversity of microbiome -Increased proteobacteria -Heightened bacterial energy pathways of gas production correlating w breath testing & symptoms #DDW19
