About SIBO Breath Test (Lactulose)
The SIBO Breath Test (Lactulose) from Genova Diagnostics is an at-home diagnostic breath test that measures hydrogen and methane gas levels produced by bacterial fermentation in the small intestine following ingestion of a lactulose substrate. It is designed for individuals seeking to assess whether an overgrowth of bacteria in the small intestine may be contributing to digestive symptoms such as bloating, gas, or irregular bowel patterns.
Why It's Worth Considering: Genova Diagnostics is a well-regarded clinical laboratory, and the lactulose protocol is widely used by integrative and functional medicine practitioners for its ability to assess gas production across a broader segment of the small intestine compared to glucose-based tests.
