Thanks for this! . "One study published this month (in 2014) demonstrated that patients with SIBO do have significant delays in small bowel transit time (the amount of time it takes something to move through the small bowel). "

Which of course goes hand in hand with hypo. Along with the decrease in stomach acid the writer also mentions as a cause.

The overlap between hypoTs and SIBO must be massive. I wonder whether with optimally treated thyroid, SIBO would resolve by itself? But this explains why betaine would help.
