About SIBO Breath Testing
How SIBO Breath Testing Works
- Preparation: Follow the preparation instructions supplied with your test kit, including the required dietary preparation before testing.
- Lactulose: On the day of testing, the supplied lactulose is taken according to the test instructions.
- Breath collection: Breath samples are collected at specified intervals over the testing period.
- Laboratory analysis: The breath samples are returned to the laboratory, where hydrogen and methane are measured.
- Results: You’ll receive the laboratory report together with Fairfield Nutrition’s educational notes to help you understand the information reported.
- Optional consultation: If you would like additional guidance, a 30-minute consultation is available at an additional cost to discuss the results in the context of your health history and individual circumstances.
Please note: Breath test results provide laboratory information and do not by themselves diagnose or determine treatment for a medical condition. If you have persistent, severe or unexplained gastrointestinal symptoms, appropriate medical assessment may be required.
