SIBO & IBS Testing
At this time, the SIBO Breath Test and IBS Smart Test are only available for Gutwell Medical patients.
SIBO Breath Test
Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) is an imbalance of microorganisms in your gut. When the microorganisms are imbalanced, frustrating symptoms like gas, diarrhea, and bloating can arise. By testing yourself for SIBO, you can identify the problem and achieve relief with Gutwell Medical.
Trio-Smart is a mail-in breath test that aids in diagnosis of small intestinal bacterial overgrowth. This test is available for purchase at GutWell Medical and is considered by Dr. Mitchell to be the best test on the market for diagnosing SIBO. This test from Trio-Smart is the only test available that detects all three fermented gases in your gut: Hydrogen, Methane, and Hydrogen Sulfide. This test was developed by Dr. Mark Pimental, the physician who discovered SIBO.
The IBS-Smart test is available at Gutwell Medical and can be submitted to insurance for possible reimbursement.

IBS Smart Test
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is an intestinal disorder that causes a variety of uncomfortable symptoms including belly pain, gas, diarrhea, and constipation.
IBS-Smart is a blood test that is performed at Gutwell Medical that measures specific antibodies that signify small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).
These biomarkers are elevated in a majority of IBS patients with diarrheal symptoms and can diagnose diarrhea-predominant or mixed-type IBS (IBS-D or IBS-M). These biomarkers are not commonly elevated in patients with constipation predominant IBS (IBS-C).
Only a licensed physician can order IBS-Smart and diagnose IBS.
The IBS-Smart test is available at Gutwell Medical and can be submitted to insurance for possible reimbursement.
