A doctor has provided 1 answer

The gold-standard treatment for SIBO is still antibiotics. There have been research studies that tried to establish a dietary link for SIBO, but there were a number of issues with those studies. Ultimately, there is currently not enough scientific evidence (as of 2022) to suggest specific dietary modifications as a treatment for SIBO. Furthermore, recurrence of SIBO is common.
