Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO) and Intestinal Methanogen Overgrowth (IMO) are common causes of functional bloating, diarrhea, constipation and suspected malabsorption.
Fructose intolerance is a condition in which absorption of fructose is impaired by deficient fructose carriers in the small intestine’s enterocytes.
Lactose intolerance is the inability to digest the sugar lactose causing gastrointestinal symptoms such as flatulence, bloating, cramps, and diarrhea.
Sucrose intolerance is the condition in which sucrase, an enzyme needed for proper metabolization of sucrose, is not produced in the small intestine.
The transition from in-office to at-home breath testing was relatively seamless with CDI. It was very easy to order the testing online, and the results were reliably returned to me electronically. Many of my patients appreciated the ability to complete this testing at home, especially when the pandemic was at its worst.
The implementation of breath testing has been a major improvement in patient care for our practice. Bloating is an extremely common and frustrating complaint from patients that we can now provide an answer for in many cases.
Breath testing has been hugely beneficial for my practice for many years. It allows me to help patients who have seen multiple doctors without finding the cause of their problems, and who continue to struggle with digestive dysfunction.
It can be challenging to diagnose IBS-D and malabsorption in a busy clinical practice. Having an objective marker to diagnose and reassure the patient and provider is a great asset in my practice. It also helps me to manage the condition by using appropriate treatment.
