Healing the Gut: SIBO, IBS & Leaky Gut Explained

IBS Is Often a Symptom, Not a Root Diagnosis Many cases labeled as IBS are “wastebasket diagnoses” where no clear cause is identified. Functional medicine seeks to uncover underlying drivers such as SIBO or gut dysfunction instead of only managing symptoms. SIBO and Gut Imbalance Are Common Root Causes of Digestive Issues SIBO (small intestinal bacterial overgrowth) occurs when bacteria from the colon migrate into the small intestine, leading to bloating, diarrhea, constipation, and discomfort. It is often driven by impaired gut motility, nerve damage, or chronic infections, and is treated with dietary changes, antimicrobials, and motility support. Leaky Gut Can Affect the Entire Body, Not Just Digestion Increased intestinal permeability allows bacterial fragments (like LPS) and undigested food particles into the bloodstream, triggering inflammation that may contribute to brain fog, fatigue, autoimmune conditions, and other systemic symptoms.
