The SIBO & Endometriosis Connection with Jade Walker | Ep 105

Tue, 24 Mar 2026 06:16:38 GMT

Naturopath Jade Walkers joins Rebecca Coomes on The Healthy Gut Podcast to discuss the connection between SIBO and Endometriosis, how to identify which condition you have and why your gut health can have a huge impact on the severity of your endometriosis symptoms.

What You'll Learn:

The strong overlap between SIBO and endometriosis, and how many women experience both conditions together rather than in isolation
Why endometriosis is often missed for so long, including outdated beliefs that severe period pain is “normal” and lack of referral to the right specialists
Why people with endometriosis may be at higher risk of SIBO or SIMO, including factors like surgeries, adhesions, constipation, pelvic floor dysfunction, antibiotics, PPIs, and bowel involvement
The concept of “endo belly,” and how bloating in endometriosis may sometimes actually be driven by SIBO, SIMO, bowel lesions, or food intolerances rather than endometriosis alone
Common signs that the gut needs deeper investigation, including bloating, constipation, diarrhea, food reactions, fatigue, brain fog, skin issues, joint pain, and systemic inflammation
The role of histamine intolerance, mast cell activation, and estrogen, and how these can amplify inflammation, pain, and symptom flares in women with endo and gut dysfunction
The impact of adhesions, including how they may contribute to pain, altered bowel function, SIBO development, and the “hot poker” sensation some women experienc
The need for a multidisciplinary, personalised approach, including the potential role of naturopaths, pelvic floor physios, osteopaths, microbiome and SIBO testing, and skilled endometriosis specialists

Lessons learned from having chronic SIBO with Rebecca Coomes | Ep. 81

Wed, 31 Oct 2018 02:23:41 GMT

Rebecca Coomes was diagnosed with SIBO in early 2015. On today's podcast she reflects on the insights she has gained from having a chronic condition and the lessons she has learned about herself, her health, her body and SIBO. On the episode she discusses:

Why SIBO can be a wake up call we need to listen to
100% resolution might not be possible but 75% or 80% improvement can be and that is ok
If we have been sick a long time, we can’t expect complete resolution within days
Why we should focus on how we are feeling rather than what test results say
Testing is helpful for diagnosis and understanding what it going on but we need to treat the whole body and the person, not just the test results
Why tracking how we're feeling is so helpful in recognising how we're changing
Diet is helpful in controlling symptoms but isn't the only element in treating SIBO
Why working with a skilled dietician or nutritionist is such a good investment in developing a nutritional protocol that's right for us
The importance of recognising disordered eating early and investing in a skilled psychologist who can help us navigate through the challenges of SIBO
Why there are 4 stages to treating SIBO, yet so many people only do the first 2
The importance of building a dream team of Practitioners around you
Not letting your location stop you from getting great care
Understanding that we know our bodies the best. Trust your symptoms and instincts
Changing your internal dialogue and limiting self beliefs
Writing down your goals and working towards them
Prioritising your spending so you spend money on health and fulfilment rather than distractions
Looking to see what positives and lessons you can take from this experience

Hydrogen Sulphide SIBO with Dr Mark Pimentel | Ep. 64

Thu, 14 Jun 2018 04:50:54 GMT

Mark Pimentel, M.D., is Professor of Medicine, Geffen School of Medicine and Associate Professor at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, California. Rebecca joined him live at Cedars-Sinai in Los Angeles to speak to him about his research into Hydrogen Sulphide SIBO.

The difference between IBS & SIBO, and what comes first? IBS or SIBO?
What is Hydrogen Sulphide SIBO and how is it different from Hydrogen and Methane SIBO?
How do you test for Hydrogen Sulphide SIBO? When will it be available and where?
Why a traditional SIBO breath test would show a flatline result if a patient has Hydrogen Sulphide SIBO?
Why Hydrogen can look falsely negative when Hydrogen Sulphide or Methane is present?
Why Hydrogen takes 60 minutes to be produced and longer for Methane
Why Hydrogen is not a reliable gas on SIBO breath tests
Should patients be asking for Hydrogen and Methane breath tests?
Why some people have a high baseline reading – how does this happen?
What the methanogens are (ie. M. Smithi)? And what produces Hydrogen and Hydrogen Sulphide?
Why and how methane slows intestinal transit time?
If methane SIBO is more likely to cause weight gain, does that mean Hydrogen SIBO is more likely to cause weight loss? What does it mean for Hydrogen Sulphide SIBO regarding weight?
How do you clinically handle the SIBO patient who has lost significant amounts of weight and can’t regain it? What’s your advice for SIBO patients who are gaining unwanted weight?
Can you have 1, 2 or 3 of the gases present at the same time? If so, what’s the correlation between the gasses?
What are the symptoms of Hydrogen Sulphide SIBO in comparison to the other types of SIBO? And how do the symptoms change depending on the presence of the other gases?
What are the treatments for Hydrogen Sulphide SIBO? Are there any treatments/supplements Hydrogen Sulphide SIBO patients should avoid?
Does the diet need to be modified any differently for Hydrogen Sulphide SIBO than the commonly used SIBO diets?
Should we be staying on a low FODMAP/SIBO diet long term? What are the risks if we do?
What do you see clinically works for your patients who don’t respond to traditional SIBO treatments (potentially multiple rounds of all currently available treatment options)?
How important is it for us to identify the underlying cause(s) of SIBO? What should a patient do if they can’t identify an underlying cause?
How can we test our MMC and transit time? How important is it to know this?
