SIBO vs IBS: Symptoms, Causes, and How to Know the Difference

Описание: SIBO and IBS can look similar, but they are not the same. If you struggle with gas and bloating, abdominal pain, diarrhea and constipation, or symptoms that continue even after trying a FODMAP diet or elimination diets, this episode will help you understand what is actually going on inside your digestive system.

We break down how SIBO affects the small intestinal environment, why excessive gas develops, and how motility problems, food triggers, and high FODMAP foods impact people with IBS. You’ll also learn how fiber intake, soluble vs insoluble fiber, and fiber supplements influence bowel movements, transit time, and long term symptom management.

What we cover in this episode:

• What SIBO is and how it develops
• How SIBO symptoms differ from IBS symptoms
• Why upper GI gas and bloating happen after meals
• Why IBS is driven by motility issues
• Common risk factors like celiac, IBD, PPIs, surgery
• How the migrating motor complex protects the gut
• How SIBO affects nutrient absorption
• What testing can and cannot tell you
• How to manage symptoms with the right type of fiber
• Soluble fiber foods like chia seeds, sweet potatoes, fruits and vegetables
• How to choose fiber supplements that support gut health
• Why root-cause work matters more than quick fixes
