Suspect SIBO?

Before you book a breath test, there’s something worth considering.

A SIBO breath test can be useful, but it only answers a specific question.

And when someone comes to us with ongoing bloating, constipation, diarrhoea or a long history of gut symptoms, there may be other things we need to investigate.

That’s why we don’t automatically recommend SIBO testing just because the symptoms seem to fit.

Sometimes a microbiome assessment may provide additional information. Sometimes a breath test is exactly what’s needed.
And sometimes testing isn’t the best first step at all.

The important part is understanding what we’re looking for and how the results will change your treatment.

If you’re tired of guessing what’s going on with your gut, comment BLOAT and we’ll help you work out what actually needs investigating.

Hope you asked twice.

Because the first answer sounded pretty convincing, and the confidence that it was delivered with is rock solid.

A nutrition plan can have headings, explanations and a lovely reassuring tone. It can look like someone has properly thought it through.

Then you ask it to check its own advice, and suddenly there are concerns worth mentioning.

The most frustrating part? You needed to know to ask.

And if nutrition isn’t your area, how would you know which bits needed questioning in the first place?

Getting a second answer doesn’t tell you which answer to trust, either.

We totally get the appeal. It’s quick, accessible and available when you’re exhausted and just want someone to tell you what to eat.

But we want you to be able to tell the difference between advice that reads well and advice that deserves your confidence.

Follow for realistic nutrition advice you can trust the first time.

Gut symptoms = food related, right? So tracking food feels like the obvious next step.
But if your food diary contains pages of meals but you still can’t see a clear pattern, food may be only one part of the information you need (or maybe it’s not the food at all 🤯)

Try noticing:
• When the bloating begins
• Whether it appears suddenly or builds gradually
• Fullness, reflux, nausea or pain
• Bowel frequency and consistency
• Whether going to the toilet brings relief
• How quickly you ate
• Where you are in your cycle
• Anything noticeably different about the day

You don’t need to document every minute of your life indefinitely.

And sometimes we don’t need to track food at all - because maybe the food is not the real problem.

We said what we said.

These are the hills we’re willing to die on after years of sitting across from clients who have been handed the same recycled advice on repeat.

No extremes, fear or overly complicated protocols.

Just what we actually believe, based on what we see in clinic.

“Bloating” tells us what you’re experiencing. The pattern gives us more to work with.

Does it start soon after eating, or build through the day? Does it come with constipation, pain or a change in your bowel habits?
Is it something you’ve always dealt with, or has it changed recently?

You don’t need a perfect symptom diary.
A few notes on when it starts, what else happens and what’s changed can make your next appointment much more useful.

Because if bloating keeps interrupting your day, guessing which food to cut out next isn’t much of a plan.

Save this post, and bring the pattern to your next appointment.

If you’re ready for someone to look at the whole picture with you, you know where to find us!

Expensive testing can provide genuinely useful information.

But without context and guidance, it’s just an expensive piece of paper.

Before ordering any test, ask one question:

What will this result change?

A positive result should have a clear purpose. So should a negative one.

The test needs to make sense for your symptoms, your history and the specific question you are trying to answer.
Because more data does not automatically mean better care. It is only useful when:

• the test is appropriate
• the results can be interpreted in context
• the findings will influence what happens next

Sometimes testing is the missing piece, sometimes it is not needed to move treatment forward. That’s where we come in 😉

Save this before investing in your next test.

Some nutrition advice has had a very long run considering how little it holds up when you ask a follow-up question.

Fruit is apparently a problem.
Bloating apparently means parasites.
And if a plan doesn’t fit your life, apparently you need more discipline.

We’d rather know what’s going on, what you’re trying to improve, and whether the advice actually helps.

That’s a lot more useful than another rule for everyone to follow.

What advice have you been given that has you questioning if it’s right for you?
