Tried stric diet and antibiotics for SIBO

Background & Problem

Over a year, case study 1 developed severe daily bloating, brain fog, and IBS symptoms. Initially, they were prescribed a low-FODMAP diet and antibiotics, which provided only temporary relief. Despite multiple consultations, GPs diagnosed their condition with IBS and food intolerances, leading to frustration and weight gain due to a slowing metabolism.


Previous Treatments/Results

  • Case study 1, after persistent symptoms and extensive personal research, was finally diagnosed with Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO) by a GP, who recommended more antibiotics. 
  • They reported seeking alternative solutions; the individual adopted a strict SIBO bi-phasic diet and used medical-grade antimicrobials but saw limited success.

Solution/Results

  • The individual started with the FixBIOME gut system and has seen improvements after 4 weeks.
  • Case study 1 continued taking the FixBIOME gut system, and by the 11th week, they had seen more changes: brain fog was gone, they had more energy, and they were taking the supplements 3x per day instead of 2x.
  • They noticed a significant reduction in the frequency and severity of bloating episodes, which now occur only 1-2 times per week.
  • They now have a lesser list of food intolerances.
  • The individual is still taking the FixBIOME gut system for maintenance. 
  • The individual experienced die-off symptoms (extreme bloating, headaches, and IBS) for over three weeks.
