I had to look this up as I had never heard of SIBO. It doesn't seem to be a term used by NICE which is the official UK medical advisory body, maybe they class it as a form IBS. I have included the URL in case it is of any interest.

Yes, it is a form of IBS and can be extremely restrictive. Luckily things move along quite well and I never need to be near a bathroom as many people do.
It’s painful at times if I don’t keep to my stupid food. BUT I’m also very keto with my diet as I feel best and have for long before diabetes. I’ve been carb intolerant sincea kid looking back. Since my foods are limited and we rarely eat out I can afford to buy very high quality of food. The saying used to be ‘we are what we eat’, now it’s ‘we are what we digest’
Food has changed. Baby formula for example. First two ingre are HFCS and soy protein isolate. No wonder young babies and kids have celiac and dairy intolerances at such a young age. What nutrients are in those?
Though my foods are limited they are all very nutrient dense.
Believe me, it’s been / is a struggle to not ‘ be normal’ but I also think many people have intolerances they aren’t aware of. They band aid it with meds and supplements.
The foods I mentioned are all on the top highest allergen/intolerance foods.
Wheat, dairy, eggs, peanuts, tree nuts, shrimp, seafood and citrus.
Coffee just messes with me. Makes me sleepy haha. Not a good sign.
And if my stomach isn’t happy nothings good,, aches, tired, moody, anxiety
It’s not WHEN I eat it always. So,etimes the day after. My daughter told me when her roommate eats gluten or dairy she cries and is moody the next few days. Let me say I’m doing this for my hubby as well. He’s great about it though
Any which way, I do love my foods.
