Hydrogen
Hydrogen breath testing is a diagnostic method used to detect abnormal levels of hydrogen in the breath, which are produced by bacterial fermentation in the intestines. This test is particularly useful for diagnosing Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO), fructose intolerance, and sorbitol intolerance. Elevated hydrogen levels can indicate that undigested carbohydrates are being fermented by bacteria in the gut, leading to symptoms like bloating, diarrhea, and abdominal pain....
Who could benefit from testing their hydrogen levels?
Individuals experiencing symptoms suggestive of SIBO, fructose intolerance, or sorbitol intolerance could benefit from hydrogen testing. These symptoms include chronic bloating, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and gas. Testing is also beneficial for those who have not found relief from standard treatments for digestive issues.
What are symptoms of elevated hydrogen levels?
Symptoms associated with elevated hydrogen levels typically include bloating, diarrhea, abdominal cramps, and flatulence. These occur due to the excessive fermentation of undigested carbohydrates by bacteria in the small intestine, producing large amounts of hydrogen.
How do you treat elevated hydrogen levels?
Treatment for elevated hydrogen levels involves addressing the underlying cause. For SIBO, this may include antibiotics to reduce bacterial overgrowth and changes in diet to reduce carbohydrate intake that feeds the bacteria. Managing fructose or sorbitol intolerance involves dietary modifications to avoid specific sugars that trigger symptoms.
What other factors need to be considered in the case of elevated hydrogen levels?
When considering elevated hydrogen levels, it’s important to evaluate dietary habits, medication use, and underlying conditions that may influence gut health. Factors like the use of antibiotics, which can alter gut flora, and conditions such as irritable bowel syndrome or celiac disease, should be considered. A thorough evaluation by a healthcare provider is crucial to determine the appropriate diagnostic and treatment approach.
