FoodMarble Healthcare

For use with MedAIRE.

This app is for use with the MedAIRE breath test device in collaboration with your doctor. If you bought a device yourself (such as through foodmarble.com, Amazon or Best Buy), then please search for the "AIRE by FoodMarble" app.

MedAIRE allows you to measure the level of hydrogen on your breath from the comfort of your own home. The FoodMarble Healthcare app records the results of your breath tests and shares them instantly with your healthcare provider. Using this information your healthcare provider can create the treatment plan that’s right for you.

MedAIRE tracks the level of fermentation happening in your small and large intestine. Fermentation happens when your gut bacteria breakdown undigested food. Tracking it allows your healthcare provider to detect the presence of small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) and carbohydrate malabsorption.

SIBO TESTING. SIBO is when you have greater amounts of bacteria than normal in your small intestine. When these bacteria breakdown undigested food, hydrogen and other gases are generated. Fermentation normally happens later in your large intestine. But when it happens sooner it may trigger digestive symptoms.

CARBOHYDRATE MALABSORPTION TESTING. Carbohydrate malabsorption occurs when the body is unable to fully digest or absorb certain food components. If these sugars reach your large intestine they can be fermented by your gut bacteria. While fermentation is healthy, if it occurs rapidly and starts to build up, it can lead to digestive symptoms.
