info_outlineGitanjali Goel joins Mary to talk about SIBO small intestinal bacterial overgrowth. It is something that a lot of people experience at some time in their life. The symptoms are varied but include constipation or diarrhea, bloating, flatulence, and flatus. For some, the symptoms are very distressing and really affect everyday life.
