Hello -
Although small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) share many of the same symptoms, SIBO affects the small intestine and IBS affects the large intestine.
A recent study examined SIBO and IBS symptoms and common bacteria present in the GI tracts of those patients.
Patients within the IBS group reported more about their symptoms than bowel habits. They experienced abdominal pain, bloating, and diarrhea.
The most common bacteria in the IBS group were Lachnoclostridium, Escherichia-Shigella, and Enterobacter.
Patients with SIBO reported more about their bowel habits than symptoms. The most common bacteria in this group were from the Ruminococcaceae Group.
The researchers found that the gut microbiota differences between IBS and SIBO can serve as important biomarkers to distinguish the two conditions.
And more help getting a proper IBS diagnosis...
You are not alone!
