Would this work for SIBO?

@wester130 It would be preferred to work on a better metabolism - as a systemic solution for digestive problems, than just looking for a quick (temporary) fix...

Not enough.
As said by Kviron, we need to deal with a better metabolism or the problem won't disappear, and even worsens. You're going to kill some / a lot of bacteria with these options but not all the bacteria. The strongest ones will remain and overgrowth.
You must first get informed on how dealing with LPS when killing some bacteria (how to manage a saturated liver). Need to know how to avoid stagnation of starch in the second part of the colon (See MMC and SIBO / SIFO).
Afterwards you need to help thyroid for the right amount of energy with adapted nutrients.
And last but not the ultimate you have to balance the communication between the brain and the stomach (commensal bacteria).Excerpt:
The lower regions of the brain responsible for coordinating the autonomic nervous system are particularly vulnerable to a deficiency of thiamine. Consequently, the metabolic derangement in these brain regions caused by deficiency produces dysfunctional autonomic outputs and misfiring, which goes on to exert detrimental effects on every bodily system – including the gastrointestinal organs.
However, the severe gut dysfunction in this context is not only caused by faulty central mechanisms in the brain, but also by tissue specific changes which occur when cells lack thiamine. The primary neurotransmitter utilized by the vagus nerve is acetylcholine. Enteric neurons also use acetylcholine to initiate peristaltic contractions necessary for proper gut motility. Thiamine is necessary for the synthesis of acetylcholine and low levels produce an acetylcholine deficit, which leads to reduced vagal tone and impaired motility in the stomach and small intestine.
In the stomach, thiamine deficiency inhibits the release of hydrochloric acid from gastric cells and leads to hypochlorydria (low stomach acid). The rate of gastric motility and emptying also grinds down to a halt, producing delayed emptying, upper GI bloating, GERD/reflux and nausea. This also reduces one’s ability to digest proteins. Due to its low pH, gastric acid is also a potent antimicrobial agent against acid-sensitive microorganisms. Hypochlorydria is considered a key risk factor for the development of bacterial overgrowth.
