Have you ever been told your bloating, stomach aches, or unpredictable bowel habits are normal? This one's for you. In today’s solo episode, I dive into a topic I'm deeply passionate about - small intestinal bacterial overgrowth, also known as SIBO. I want to help you understand that SIBO isn’t just a diagnosis, it’s the result of broader dysfunction in the gut, and recognising it can be life-changing.
In this episode, I chat about:
- What SIBO is and how it affects the gut
- Underlying causes and triggering factors
- Why SIBO could be misdiagnosed
- Signs and symptoms of SIBO
- Diagnostic tests
- The difference between SIBO and IMO
- Common mistakes made in the testing process
- How to treat SIBO and reduce the risk of recurrence
- Recovery and life after SIBO
- How to find an experienced SIBO practitioner
- What to do if you suspect you have SIBO

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
