Hmm, from the literature I’ve consumed so far, I had the impression that SIBO isn’t actually that common, and it’s just one possible (and not particularly wide-spread) reason for irritable bowel syndrome. That said, evidence is mounting that SIBO was absolutely [my problem](https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/fFY2HeC9i2Tx8FEnK/luck-based-medicine-my-resentful-story-of-becoming-a-medical?commentId=FXit9XoHTjevw6goD), so I have no anecdata leg to stand on. (Personally I’m gradually experimenting with the carbs my gut is okay with it, since it has such a strong dislike for most of them (especially starches, for some reason).) Thanks for the tip with the elm powder!
