This test measures the levels of hydrogen and methane in your breath after ingesting different substrates. Lactulose, Fructose, and Glucose substrates are commonly used to evaluate how your digestive system reacts to various sugars, which can trigger bacterial fermentation and result in the production of gas. Elevated levels of hydrogen or methane in the breath indicate bacterial overgrowth and can help specify the type of SIBO you may have.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLactulose is a sugar that is not absorbed by the body, and it helps identify SIBO in the small intestine. Fructose is a sugar found in many fruits, and its testing can reveal specific types of bacterial imbalances. Glucose, a simple sugar, is used to assess bacterial overgrowth in the upper small intestine. By using all three substrates, the test provides a comprehensive evaluation of bacterial activity throughout the small intestine, offering a more comprehensive and detailed diagnosis. This breath test is particularly helpful for individuals experiencing symptoms like bloating, diarrhoea, constipation, abdominal discomfort, and fatigue, which may be linked to SIBO. By identifying the presence and type of SIBO, healthcare providers can offer targeted treatment options, such as dietary changes or antibiotics, to improve digestive health and overall wellbeing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTest details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTest code:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2215\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCategory:\u003c\/strong\u003e Microbiome Health\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKit requirements:\u003c\/strong\u003e SIBO Breath Kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCollection method:\u003c\/strong\u003e CI05.14.01, CI05.54.01, CI05.55.01\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTurnaround time:\u003c\/strong\u003e 48 Hours\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is measured\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul class=\"analytes\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eHydrogen\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eMethane\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCommon clinical applications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul class=\"common-conditions\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAbdominal pain and discomfort\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/nutripath.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Gastrointestinal-and-Digestive-Health.png\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGastrointestinal and Digestive Health\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cul class=\"common-conditions\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBloating\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eConstipation\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNausea\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/nutripath.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Other-Health-Conditions.png\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOther Health Conditions\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cul class=\"common-conditions\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDiarrhea\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFlatulence\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFatigue and brain fog\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFatty stools (steatorrhea)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMalnutrition\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNutrient deficiencies\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/nutripath.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Nutritional-and-Dietary-Symptoms.png\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNutritional and Dietary Symptoms\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cul class=\"common-conditions\"\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWeight loss\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch3\u003eResources\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/nutripath.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/2030-2027-2025-2021-SIBO-PROFILES-1.pdf\"\u003ePatient Brochure\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/nutripath.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/1970\/01\/SIBO-All-Sugars-lactulose_Glucose_Fructose.pdf\"\u003eSample Report\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThis test should be ordered and interpreted with guidance from a qualified healthcare practitioner.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImportant:\u003c\/strong\u003e Test information is general only.
