OMED Health SIBO
Food supplement designed to support you as part of a clinician-guided gut health plan for SIBO
Treatment Strategies
Once a diagnosis of Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO) has been confirmed, the goal of treatment is to restore balance in the gut and address factors that may contribute to bacterial overgrowth. Treatment approaches are tailored to each individual and may include dietary adjustments, lifestyle modification, and antimicrobial therapy – either prescription-based or natural, clinically supported herbal formulations.
At OMED Health, our clinical team provides guidance through every step, from test interpretation to personalised treatment and ongoing monitoring via the OMED Breath Analyzer and App.
The Science
Below are examples of the research that informs our formulation.
Oregano
Oregano is rich in phenolic compounds such as carvacrol and thymol. These have been studied for their roles in supporting microbial balance and explored for antioxidant properties that contribute to general wellness. Oregano has also been researched in relation to digestive comfort and immune system function.
Ginger
Ginger has been studied for its role in supporting normal digestive processes and gastric motility. Its gingerol compounds have also been researched for antioxidant activity and explored for their relevance to digestive comfort.
Garlic
Garlic contains allicin, a bioactive compound that has been researched for its natural antimicrobial activity and explored for its potential role in maintaining a balanced gut microbiota. It has also been studied for its contribution to normal digestive processes and antioxidant support.
Thyme
Thyme contains natural aromatic oils that have been researched for their potential to influence microbial balance in the gut and studied for antioxidant and digestive-supportive properties.
Turmeric
Turmeric and its primary compound, curcumin, have been extensively studied for their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Research has explored their relevance to digestive function, nutrient absorption, and overall gut integrity.
Digestive Enzymes
Digestive enzymes such as amylase, protease, and lactase have been investigated for their roles in nutrient breakdown and absorption. Research has explored how enzyme supplementation may support general digestive efficiency and comfort.

Are there any side effects?
These products are generally well-tolerated when used as directed. However, as with any food supplement, individuals may react differently. Occasionally, mild digestive changes such as increased gas or changes in bowel movements can occur as your gut adjusts. If you experience persistent discomfort, discontinue use and contact customer support.
Are antimicrobials the same as antibiotics?
No. These are food supplements containing plant-based extracts traditionally used to support digestive health and microbial balance. Antibiotics are prescription-only medicines to be used under the supervision of a healthcare professional.
Can I take antimicrobials alongside my usual medication?
If you are taking prescription medication or have a diagnosed medical condition, speak with your doctor or pharmacist before starting any new supplement. This is especially important if your medication affects digestion or gut health.
Should I retest after finishing the course of antimicrobials?
Yes, we recommend that you take a substrate retest at the end of your course of antimicrobials to assess the effectiveness of this treatment for you. This will also determine whether any future treatment is required.
