If you’ve treated SIBO (small intestinal bacterial overgrowth) before and either nothing changed… or things got worse… this episode is for you!

Because what if it’s not just bacterial overgrowth?

In this episode of the Love Your Gut podcast, Dr. Heather Finley breaks down one of the most overlooked reasons women stay stuck with bloating, food reactions, sugar cravings, and “gut protocols” that never seem to fully work: SIFO, or small intestinal fungal overgrowth

You’ll learn why SIFO can look a lot like SIBO, why it’s often missed, and why repeated antibiotics, low stomach acid, restrictive diets, and chronic stress can all create the kind of environment where fungal overgrowth can thrive.

If you’ve ever been told you have SIBO (small intestinal bacterial overgrowth) and immediately felt overwhelmed by what to do next, this episode is for you. Because while a diagnosis can feel like a relief after being told “everything is normal,” it often leads to more confusion: antibiotics, elimination diets, supplements… and still no clear plan. In this episode, Dr. Heather is breaking down what actually matters after a SIBO diagnosis and why so many people stay stuck in the cycle of temporary relief and recurring symptoms.

We’re shifting the focus away from just “killing bacteria” and toward understanding why the overgrowth happened in the first place, so you can take a more strategic, sustainable approach to healing.

You’ll learn:
• The biggest mistake people make right after a SIBO diagnosis
• Why antibiotics alone often don’t prevent SIBO from coming back
• The different types of SIBO and why that changes treatment
• How restrictive diets can keep you stuck longer than you think
• The key systems that need to be supported for lasting results

Still dealing with bloating, constipation, or SIBO that keeps coming back?
Join my upcoming live training SIBO Unlocked on March 22, where I’ll walk you through why antibiotics, supplements, and elimination diets often fail—and what actually needs to be addressed for lasting gut healing.
