You should only stop taking your digestive enzymes for one day before the test, and any probiotics 48 hours before the SIBO test, or 72 hours before a Gut Health Test.   [See the Gut Health Test instructions](https://healthpathpro.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/KT225-IFU-DEC-22-RM0581-BOM-VERSION-GT141222.pdf) for more information on how to prepare.   -
