Melanie,
His past candida issue really isn’t that relevant, particularly since it was so long ago. However, this is they type of person you could treat based on symptoms to see how they respond. I think at least doing the Microbial Organic Acids Test (mOAT) is worthwhile to rule out clostridia toxins.There are no particular special things that would differ in this case versus someone who had a colon. It is still worthwhile treating and using some kind of binder agent, e.g. Colon Rx (Designs for Health) as discussed in the SIBO module.
If he has GI symptoms, then it is likely SIBO. Because he doesn’t have a colon trying to correlate information to constipation (methane) and loose stools/diarrhea (hydrogen) will be very difficult. Therefore, taking a broad approach by using combination botanicals, along with Allimax/other garlic extract is worthwhile.
