How to Treat SIBO Naturally: Diet, Herbs, Testing & the Clinical Approach That Works

Top Tips for Stubborn SIBO Cases

Struggling with persistent SIBO symptoms or unsure where to start with natural treatment? In this episode, I break down exactly how I treat SIBO in clinic — from diet and herbs to overlooked factors like biofilm, enzymes, histamine, and oxalates.

Whether you’re a health practitioner, student, or someone personally dealing with SIBO, you’ll walk away with a deep understanding of the step-by-step process required for real, lasting results — not just temporary relief.

What I Cover:

  •  Why a low FODMAP diet is non-negotiable if you’re treating SIBO naturally

  • How to use testing — and retesting — to guide effective treatment

  • The best herbs for hydrogen and methane SIBO (and why they differ)

  • The role of SIFO (Small Intestinal Fungal Overgrowth) and how to spot it

  • Why addressing biofilm is essential for treatment success

  • How digestive enzymes (including brush border support) accelerate healing

  • The hidden role of histamine intolerance in stubborn cases

  • Why oxalates can spike on a low FODMAP diet — and what to do about it

  • What to do when the migrating motor complex (MMC) isn’t working

  • The best prokinetics, binders, and enzyme supplements I use in practice

  • When and how to safely reintroduce foods after treatment

  • What recurring SIBO is trying to tell you

Stay well,

Joanne Kennedy
