Impaired intestinal motility leads to dysbiosis and predisposes to SIBO. When motility impairment is severe, gastroparesis may result, in turn leading to malnutrition, frequent nausea and vomiting. Impaired motility can also lead to osteroporosis, anemia and other complications.

Dr. Stansbury also details how the hormones motilin and ghrelin – the hunger hormone – may offer some benefits
