How could diet affect SIBO?

Very little research has been done on dietary interventions for SIBO specifically, so most recommendations are based on weak or anecdotal evidence. Some dietary patterns, such as the low-fodmap, low-sugar or specific carbohydrate, or elemental diets may reduce some of the symptoms associated with SIBO, but their effects on the condition itself are unknown.^{[1][2] [3][4]}
