Have you ever felt like you've tried every gut healing diet out there — low FODMAP diet, paleo diet, gluten-free diet, low histamine diet, or a candida cleanse — and still deal with stubborn symptoms? Symptoms like... Bloating, fatigue, constipation.Skin issues like acne or eczema.Hormonal symptoms like PMS or mood swings.Or mystery symptoms your doctors can't find a cause for. If you've been relying on food restrictions to heal your gut — or hoping that cutting just one more food will finally fix your digestion, hormones, or skin — here's the truth: Food restrictions alone cannot heal your gut. Yes, a gut health diet may bring relief from symptoms, but it's not a long-term solution. If food restrictions so far have not healed your gut or symptoms you're trying to correct, then there IS no mystery, perfect diet out there waiting for you. The real issue isn't the food you're eating (or not eating) - it's the fact that you're not looking OUTSIDE of diet to the hidden root causes driving your symptoms. If you're only looking at food restrictions address the real root causes behind your gut problems, you're only scratching the surface. In today's episode, I'm revealing: Why food restrictions may reduce symptoms but never reverse gut dysfunctionThe biological reason your food sensitivity list may be getting longerThe 4 overlooked root causes that stall gut healing — even on a perfect dietThe specific lab tests that can literally SHOW you YOUR specific path to healing Healing should never feel like a never-ending guessing game of whack-a-mole.

Cerramos la semana con un tema tabú pero muy común: la diarrea. Y lo primero que quiero decir es: tener diarrea ocasionalmente no es preocupante. Pero si es algo frecuente, hay que mirar qué está pasando. Causas más habituales:Infecciones: virus, bacterias, parásitos.Intolerancias alimentarias (lactosa, fructosa, sorbitol, etc.).Enfermedades inflamatorias intestinales.Síndrome de intestino irritable con predominio diarreico.SIBO (sobrecrecimiento bacteriano).Estrés y ansiedad.Dieta muy rica en fibra insoluble o ultraprocesados.Suplementos o medicamentos.El problema es que muchas personas se automedican o cambian la dieta sin saber el origen real. Tratamiento efectivo = diagnóstico claro. ¿Qué hacemos en consulta?Primero, revisar la historia clínica completa.Pedir pruebas si hace falta: test de intolerancias, microbiota, parásitos, SIBO, etc.Ajustar la alimentación: más cocinados, menos irritantes, dieta FODMAP si es necesario.Suplementación específica si se detecta alguna alteración.Y, muy importante, trabajar el contexto emocional.La diarrea no es solo un síntoma molesto. Es una señal de que algo no va bien. Escucha tu cuerpo. No lo silencies.Conviértete en un seguidor de este podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/comiendo-con-maria-nutricion--2497272/support.

Margo Flanagan, one half of the Two Raw Sisters, is offering up a delicious recipe for slow cooked Moroccan lamb and pumpkin. Serves: 6 Time: 2.5 – 3 hours — 150 mins Ingredients 2 tbsp cooking oil 1 red onion - thinly sliced 1 carrot - diced 4 cloves garlic - crushed and chopped 2 tbsp tomato paste 1 tbsp freshly grated ginger 1 tbsp cumin seeds 1 tbsp smoked paprika 2 tsp ground turmeric 1 stick of cinnamon ½ - 1 tsp chilli flakes 1 cup dried prunes 400g canned tomatoes 2 cups vegetable stock 4 lamb shanks OR 1x 400g can of chickpeas, rinsed and drained 2 cups chopped pumpkin - deseeded and skin left on Herby Lemon Millet 1 cup millet 2 cups water 1 cup herbs - chopped 1 lemon - zest and juice 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil ½ cup almonds - roasted and chopped Method Heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat. In the pot, add the onion and carrot. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened. Add garlic, tomato paste, ginger, cumin seeds, paprika, turmeric, cinnamon stick, chilli flakes and prunes. Cook for another minute or two until fragrant. To the pot, add the canned tomatoes, vegetable stock, lamb shanks or chickpeas and chopped pumpkin. Bring to a gentle simmer. Cover with a lid. If you are adding lamb shanks, cook on low heat for 2.5 -3 hours, or until the lamb is tender. Or if you are using chickpeas, cook on low for 30-40 minutes. While the stew is cooking, prepare the millet. Place in a pot with the water. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce to a simmer for 7 minutes. Remove from heat and let it sit, covered, for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork and stir through the herbs, lemon zest and juice, olive oil, and chopped almonds. Add a generous scoop of herby lemon millet to each bowl and top with the stew. Any leftovers will keep in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Alternatively you can freeze for up to 3 months. Simple Swaps / Additions You can also use a slow cooker for this recipe, follow the same method of frying off the onion, carrot, spices and prunes in a pan, then transfer that to the crockpot along with the rest of the ingredients. Cook on low for 6–8 hours or on high for 2.5-3 hours. Change the red onion for brown onion or a leek. Use celery or zucchini instead of a carrot. Use 1/2 tsp of ground cinnamon instead of 1 stick. Use dried apricots or dates instead of prunes. Use kumara (sweet potato) or potatoes instead of pumpkin. Instead of lamb shanks you could use diced lamb or beef. Change up the millet for any other grain such as couscous, quinoa or brown rice. Use whatever herbs you love / have such as coriander or parsley. Use any other nut or seed instead of almonds such as walnuts, pumpkin seeds or cashews. Low FODMAP - replace the red onion with 3 stalks of celery and leave out the garlic and prunes completely. Check that the vegetable stock you use is low FODMAP, alternatively use 2 cups of water + 1 tbsp miso paste. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this podcast, Emma Sutherland is joined by psychophysiologist and Monash University researcher Dr Simone Peters - one of the world's leading experts in gut-directed hypnotherapy - to explore the rise of this behavioural therapy as a first-line treatment for IBS and other gut disorders. From her landmark randomised controlled trial (RCT) comparing hypnotherapy to the low fermentable, oligosaccharides, disaccharides, monosaccharides, and polyols (FODMAP) diet, to the development of the Nerva app, Simone presents compelling data on how this therapy works, with 75–80% of patients responding within six weeks. The recommendation to use gut-directed hypnotherapy for IBS now forms international treatment guidelines and this episode empowers practitioners to integrate mind-body approaches into clinical care for IBS and beyond.

In dieser Folge ist Julia Sahm zum dritten Mal zu Gast – und bringt wieder wertvolle Impulse mit. Ihr neues Buch „Die Wunderwoche“ ist ein tiefgehendes 7-Tages-Programm, das psychologisches Wissen, neurowissenschaftliche Erkenntnisse und spirituelle Impulse verbindet. Im Interview sprechen wir darüber, wie du mit der Kraft deiner Gedanken und gezielter Selbstreflexion dein Essverhalten nachhaltig verändern kannst – ohne Diäten, ohne Zwang, ohne Kalorien zu zählen. Ein zentraler Punkt: Wie deine Gedanken und inneren Überzeugungen sich ganz real auf deinen Körper auswirken – hormonell, emotional und langfristig auch körperlich. Denn emotionale Essmuster sind oft Ausdruck unbewusster Prozesse, die auf mehreren Ebenen wirken. Julia zeigt auf, wie alte Glaubenssätze erkannt und gewandelt werden können – und warum kleine tägliche Rituale so kraftvoll sind. Ein Gespräch über die tieferen Zusammenhänge von Körper, Geist und Seele – und darüber, wie echte Veränderung möglich wird.

"Our goal is to get you to the point where you can tolerate more foods with less pain and you can live your life. You can go on vacation and you can have some chips and guac or whatever, and you can be okay." - Hannah Aylward Hannah Aylward's journey from chronic gut dysfunction to functional gut health practitioner mirrors what so many of us experience in our 40s and beyond - doing everything "right" yet still struggling with mysterious digestive issues. Her story resonates deeply because she discovered that healing isn't just about elimination diets or avoiding certain foods forever. It's about getting to the root cause of the root cause. Hannah shares why gut problems are more prevalent than ever, how stress, toxin exposure, and even birth control pills contribute to digestive dysfunction, and most importantly, how to actually heal your gut so you can enjoy food freedom again. This conversation will shift your perspective from fearing foods to understanding that your body can become resilient enough to handle life's imperfections while maintaining optimal health. What you'll learn: Why gut problems are more prevalent now than ever, including the role of chronic stress, environmental toxins, and hormonal disruptions The advanced functional testing that reveals what's really happening in your digestive system beyond basic elimination diets How to distinguish between true food sensitivities and underlying gut dysfunction that makes you reactive to healthy foods The connection between gut health and seemingly unrelated symptoms like brain fog, skin issues, anxiety, and thyroid problems Why popular dietary trends like low FODMAP, carnivore, and extreme restriction often miss the mark for long-term healing The role of microbiome diversity and specific beneficial bacteria like Akkermansia in maintaining gut barrier function How to address SIBO, leaky gut, and fat maldigestion without relying solely on prescription antibiotics A balanced perspective on controversial topics like oxalates, histamines, and lectins - and when restriction might actually be harmful Love the Podcast?

Taylor shares her story of navigating gut health struggles that had been plaguing her for years, from anxiety-induced digestive issues to feeling stuck in the cycle of dietary restrictions and discomfort.Taylor opens up about the challenges of managing IBS while juggling a demanding lifestyle, and how it led her to explore various coaching and wellness options before finally finding a path that truly worked for her. We discuss the power of mindful eating and how it became the game-changer for her relationship with food, as well as the importance of stress management in the healing process. She also shares how hypnotherapy through the Nerva app played a pivotal role in managing stress and preventing flare-ups.One of the most insightful parts of Taylor's journey is her experience with the low FODMAP diet, which she had tried before but never with the structure and support that we created in our coaching. Taylor talks about what it was like to go through the elimination and reintroduction phases with full accountability, and how understanding the connection between stress and gut health has empowered her to make sustainable changes.Not only has Taylor seen improvements in her gut health, but she's also celebrated significant wins in her hormonal balance and overall wellbeing, including clearer skin and more stable energy levels. She reflects on how this process has shifted her mindset and empowered her to advocate for her health, making peace with imperfection and embracing the ongoing journey of self-care and healing.This episode is full of practical tips, relatable struggles, and inspiring moments of progress. Whether you're dealing with gut issues or simply want to learn more about mindful eating and stress management, Taylor's journey offers valuable insights for anyone looking to take control of their health.In this episode, you'll learn:The power of mindful eating in overcoming IBS and digestive issuesHow stress management and hypnotherapy helped Taylor manage gut healthThe step-by-step process of the low FODMAP approach and how it can improve symptomsInsights on hormonal balance and skin health that came as a bonus of gut healingThe importance of advocating for yourself in health and wellness, even when you don't have all the answersIf you've struggled with IBS or gut health issues and felt discouraged by previous attempts, this episode is for you.

From healing autism and autoimmune diseases with bone broth to the sneaky, sad truth about what it actually takes to get on grocery store shelves (spoiler: brands have to pay for shelf space—and they're often required to go on sale multiple times a year, which eats into their margins), this episode is packed with eye-opening insights. We get into the GAPS diet—what it is and how it works—the realities of USDA regulations, and the little-known details about Prop 65: including how some brands voluntarily put that scary warning on their packaging even when their test results are well below Prop 65 lead levels.

Despite the growing body of research, we are still in the early stages of understanding the gut microbiome. Consumer interest in biotics is growing and this trend is driving more research into pre, pro, post and synbiotics and their potential health benefits. This episode focuses on prebiotics, which are defined as “a substrate that is selectively utilized by host microorganisms conferring a health benefit” and are often associated with dietary fibers but may also derive from non-fiber substances such as polyphenols. Tune into this episode with Hannah Ackermann, MBA, RDN to learn about: ● what prebiotics are and what they have to do with fiber ● research regarding the known and emerging health benefits of prebiotics ● health claims for prebiotics ● trends in consumer interest in biotics ● low FODMAP diets ● what to look for on food labels ● how different prebiotic fibers may impact GI symptoms ● the prebiotic fiber ingredient Arrabina Wheat Fiber ● resources for health professionals and the public Commercial support has been provided by COMET, a company specializing in prebiotic dietary fiber ingredients.
