You've got IBS. And you don't want to live a life of restrictive eating. What do you do? Well, in today's episode two dietitians with IBS-D are going to share what they know to help you enjoy what you're eating and feel your absolute best. Sometimes, eating with irritable bowel syndrome is like playing the slots: you never know what's going to pop up next. Maybe you've been doing well on a low FODMAP diet but all of a sudden your symptoms crop up again….with zero changes to your diet. Or, maybe you can't seem to figure out which foods are causing issues because sometimes you get symptoms and sometimes you don't…with the same food!Which is why I'm chatting withJessica Roocroft, a dietitian who's an expert in caring for the different subtypes of irritable bowel syndrome and also somewhat unique in her practice because her programs include gut-directed hypnotherapy as a way to help symptoms reside with as few dietary restrictions as possible.We're going to chat about how nutrition influences IBS…and also why foods aren't necessarily causing your symptoms. They may in fact just be exacerbating the symptoms caused by something else entirely. We're going to talk about the gut brain connection so you understand its impact on digestive health, totally free of the psuedoscience you usually see on social media. Jess shares a wealth of very specific and detailed information on tools and practices that might help you get your symptoms under control so you can actually enjoy food again and learn to live a less restrictive and more enjoyable food life. About Jessica Roocroft RD:Jessica Roocroft (just call her Jess) is a Registered Dietitian from North Vancouver, BC who owns and operates an Irritable Bowel Syndrome-focused private practice. Most importantly, she knows first-hand what it's like to deal with gut drama due to IBS-D. It is her life's work to combine her lived experience with IBS with hundreds of hours of research and continuing education over the years and direct it right back at supporting clients navigate the overwhelming world of IBS. On this episode we chat about:How a family trauma initiated Jess' IBS-DHow does eating cause symptoms in IBSWhy low FODMAP isn't right for everyoneUnderstanding the gut-brain connection in IBSThe stress-symptom cycle How the heck does gut directed hypnotherapy work in IBSWhat happens low FODMAP or hypnotherapy don't work for youUnlearning a restrictive diet in IBSHow to build up your tolerance to fibreDigestive enzymes in IBSCorrection: around 1h 9m, I misspeak and say 30 different foods a day, I meant a week!Support the Pod!We couldn't make this podcast happen without the support of our amazing listeners…I love hearing your feedback on these episodes to be sure to join the conversation on our instagram@theallsortspod@desireenielsenrd@jess_nourishesIf you love this episode, please share it with your friends and family, or take a minute to rate, review or subscribe on your favourite podcast app. We appreciate EVERY.

Charlie Andrews talks to Dr Chris Black about the management of IBS.This podcast provides key insights into managing Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), emphasising a multidisciplinary and individualised approach to care. Here are the main takeaways:1. Multidisciplinary and Integrative CareIBS management requires a holistic, patient-centered approach involving dietitians, behavioral therapists, and gastroenterologists. This "team sport" approach expands treatment options and tailors care to individual patient needs1. Integrative care, which combines dietary, psychological, and medical interventions, has been shown to improve symptoms, psychological well-being, and quality of life for IBS patients1.2. Personalised TreatmentIBS is not a one-size-fits-all condition. There are different subtypes of IBS (e.g., IBS-D for diarrhea-predominant or IBS-C for constipation-predominant), and treatment must be customized based on the patient's symptoms and triggers4. Emerging research suggests the need to identify distinct subtypes of IBS to guide more effective treatments24.3. Dietary ManagementThe low FODMAP diet is a widely recommended dietary intervention for IBS. It helps identify food triggers and manage symptoms but should not be used long-term without personalization3. Probiotics may also play a role in symptom relief for some patients, though their effectiveness varies3.4. Behavioral InterventionsCognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and gut-directed hypnotherapy are effective in managing IBS symptoms, particularly when patients are motivated to engage in these therapies1. Stress management is critical since stress and anxiety can exacerbate IBS symptoms15.5. Pharmacological TherapiesMedications are often used as complementary treatments when dietary or behavioral strategies alone are insufficient. These include antispasmodics, laxatives, or medications targeting gut-brain interaction Chapters (00:00:01) - Ingest on Irritable Bowel Syndrome(00:02:49) - In the Know: irritable bowel syndrome (IBs)(00:04:03) - Irritable bowel syndrome, management principles(00:08:07) - How to manage irritable bowel syndrome?

Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend! I'm looking forward to sharing with you some of our community's questions that have come in over the past few weeks… Raquel: Hi, I wanted to know if it's possible to get rid of food and environmental allergies. I cannot tolerate fruits, vegetables, nuts, and nickel-containing products due to these. Even if I cook everything (OAS), I still get an itchy mouth, wheezing, and/or vomiting/diarrhea (especially with eggplant, coconut, and nuts). I did IgE blood and skin testing and was allergic to everything tested. I also tried allergy shots for 5 years. I also have IBS-D and fiber/grains are a major trigger. The one thing that has worked to reduce my symptoms (hives, itchy mouth, asthma, diarrhea) is to eat an elimination diet (no plants), but I am worried about this long term. I am allergic to your HistPro and Sinus Support supplements I assume due to the plants in them. Any help greatly appreciated, thanks so much! Matthew: My mother saw her doctor and he told her that her heart is not pumping enough blood throughout her body and she needs to see specialist. Now on the allopathic side I know they're gonna have her take heart medication. I know my experience that heart medication causes so many problems overtime just like other medication cause problems. I wanted to know what can she do for a naturopathic/ functional medicine perspective, or should I say try before she goes into the medication aspect? Because from the sounds of it to me, her EF or ejection fracture is lower than it should be. I may be wrong but that's what it sounds like to me. I'm hoping you can help thanks Amy: Should one take a break from berberine need to be stopped after taking it 6 months? It is the only thing that stopped my hot flashes so i don't want to stop. Maria: Why does the heat of the sun make me feel sick? Jillian: My 3.5 year old daughter develops a cough that can last a month+ after being sick. This cough wakes her at night, sometimes causing her to vomit from coughing so hard. During these times she will cough after running around also. This happens every few months, with some time in between of no symptoms. It seems like asthma but I am unsure of what to do. How safe are breathing treatments and inhalers for children? Does this mean she requires antibiotics to clear any infection from a lingering sickness? Most importantly, why would this be happening to her? Would removing tonsils help? I'm trying to weigh the pros and cons of treating her with western medicine letting it be and seeing if it stops as she gets older. She's only had antibiotics once in her life and eats fairly well for a toddler.

Not one of us are completely immune to an occasional episode of diarrhea. Whether you can trace it back to something you ate or an up tick in stress, liquid poop is not ideal. Kate and Megan are joined by a giant in the field of gastroenterology, Dr. Jessica Allegretti from Brigham & Women's Hospital in Boston, Massachusetts to do a deep dive discussion into diarrhea. Together, they discuss the various causes of diarrhea, from common infections and food intolerances to more chronic conditions like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Dr. Allegretti offers valuable insights into the concerns surrounding Clostridium difficile (C. diff) infections and the complexities involved in diagnosing and treating recurrent cases. We also explore cutting-edge research of live biotherapeutic products (LBPs) and their promising role in the innovative area of fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) with the guidance of this world-renowned expert. And, we couldn't discuss diarrhea without acknowledging the potential role of food, stress and the intricate relationship between our gut microbiome and our behaviors. Kate and Megan provide practical tips and tricks to the nutritional and behavioral management of this often times anxiety provoking symptom that leave all listeners feeling empowered with strategies when it comes to the runs. Whether you've had C.Diff, are managing IBS-D or just curious about this common symptom this episode is a must listen!

Digestion is a complex process that involves breaking down food into nutrients that the body can absorb and use. For a healthy person, the time it takes to digest meals and snacks can vary based on the type and composition of the food consumed. Keep in mind the digestive process varies significantly between healthy individuals and those with digestive disorders. While healthy individuals typically digest meals within a predictable timeframe, digestive disorders can cause delays or speed up this process. Keep in mind that GLP-1 agonists like semaglutide (Wegovy) and tirzepatide (Zepbound) influence digestion by slowing gastric emptying and regulating appetite, which can be beneficial for weight loss and diabetes management but may pose challenges for those with certain digestive conditions. In this podcast, we'll discuss how digestion is impacted by digestive orders and how GLP-1 agonists like semaglutide (Wegovy) and tirzepatide (Zepbound) affect digestion. The Digestive Process Explained Starting in the Mouth: The digestive process begins in the mouth when you chew food. Chewing breaks down food into smaller particles, and saliva, which contains an enzyme that starts the digestion of starches, moistens the food, making it easier to move along the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Moving to the Esophagus: When you swallow, food travels down the esophagus. Here, peristalsis—rhythmic contractions—automatically propel the food forward. At the lower end of the esophagus, a circular muscle called the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) relaxes to allow food to pass into the stomach and then closes to prevent stomach acid from flowing back into the esophagus. Stomach Function: Once food reaches the stomach, muscles in the stomach wall mix it with stomach acid and enzymes, creating digestive juices that break the food down into a liquid mixture called chyme. The Small Intestine: In the small intestine, food mixes with digestive juices from the pancreas, liver, and gallbladder. The walls of the small intestine then absorb nutrients into the bloodstream before peristalsis moves the remaining mixture forward. Large Intestine Function: Undigested food, fluids, and damaged cells from the GI tract's lining enter the large intestine or colon. Here, water is absorbed, transforming the waste material from liquid to stool. Peristalsis then moves the stool into the rectum, where it is stored until it is expelled during a bowel movement. Typical Digestion Times: Liquids: Water and other clear fluids pass through the stomach quickly, usually within 20-30 minutes. Simple Carbohydrates: Foods like fruit, white bread, and sugary snacks are typically digested within 30-60 minutes. Complex Carbohydrates: Whole grains, quinoa, vegetables, and legumes take longer, around 2-3 hours. Proteins: Meat, dairy, and other high-protein foods generally take 3-4 hours to digest. Fats: Fatty foods such as nuts, cheese, and fried foods are the slowest to digest, often taking up to 6 hours or more. On average, the entire digestive process, from ingestion to elimination, can take about 24-72 hours in healthy individuals. Digestion in Individuals with Digestive Disorders Digestive disorders can significantly alter the time it takes for food to move through the digestive system. Conditions such as gastroparesis, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) can disrupt normal digestive function. Gastroparesis: This condition, often caused by diabetes or other underlying issues, slows stomach emptying. Symptoms include nausea, vomiting, and bloating. In gastroparesis, digestion can be severely delayed, with food remaining in the stomach for prolonged periods, sometimes up to several hours longer than normal. Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS): IBS can cause both accelerated and delayed digestion, depending on whether diarrhea-predominant (IBS-D) or constipation-predominant (IBS-C) symptoms are present. IBS-D can lead to faster transit times, while IBS-C can slow digestion, causing significant delays in the passage of food. Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD): Conditions such as Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis involve chronic inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract, which can disrupt normal digestion. Depending on the severity and location of inflammation, digestion can be faster or delayed. What is the Impact of GLP-1 Agonists on Digestion? GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) agonists, such as semaglutide (Wegovy) and tirzepatide (Zepbound), are medications primarily used for managing type 2 diabetes and obesity. These drugs mimic the action of the GLP-1 hormone, which plays an important role in regulating appetite, insulin secretion, and gastric motility. Slowed Gastric Emptying: GLP-1 agonists slow the rate at which food leaves the stomach. This effect can help increase feelings of fullness and reduce overall food intake, contributing to weight loss. In healthy individuals, this slowed gastric emptying can extend digestion times slightly but is generally well-tolerated. Appetite Regulation: By acting on receptors in the brain, GLP-1 agonists reduce appetite and promote satiety. This leads to smaller meal sizes and reduced caloric intake, which can aid in weight management. Blood Glucose Control: These medications enhance insulin secretion in response to meals and inhibit glucagon release, improving blood glucose control. This effect is particularly beneficial for individuals with type 2 diabetes but can also contribute to a more stable digestion process by preventing large spikes and crashes in blood sugar levels. Digestion Times While Taking GLP-1 Agonists Liquids: Typical: 20-30 minutes With GLP-1 Agonists: 30-60 minutes GLP-1 agonists slow the passage of liquids, increasing digestion time slightly. Simple Carbohydrates: Typical: 30-60 minutes With GLP-1 Agonists: 45-90 minutes Simple carbs take longer to leave the stomach, prolonging the digestion time. Complex Carbohydrates: Typical: 2-3 hours With GLP-1 Agonists: 3-4 hours Complex carbs, which already take longer to digest, experience further delays. Proteins: Typical: 3-4 hours With GLP-1 Agonists: 4-5 hours Protein digestion is slowed down, leading to extended stomach retention. Fats: Typical: Up to 6 hours or more With GLP-1 Agonists: 7-8 hours or more Fatty foods, being the slowest to digest, see the most significant increase in digestion time. Factors Affecting Digestion Times on GLP-1 Agonists Dosage: Higher doses of GLP-1 agonists tend to slow gastric emptying more, potentially leading to longer digestion times. Individual Variability: Each person's digestive system responds differently to GLP-1 agonists, so the exact digestion times can vary. Meal Composition: Mixed meals containing fats, proteins, and carbohydrates will generally take longer to digest, especially when combined with the effects of GLP-1 agonists. Side Effects and Considerations: While GLP-1 agonists are effective in managing weight and blood glucose levels, they can also cause gastrointestinal side effects such as nausea, constipation, belching, and diarrhea, particularly during the initial stages of treatment or when the dose is increased. These side effects are typically temporary and go away on their own when your body gets used to the medication. The use of GLP-1 agonists requires careful consideration and monitoring for individuals with digestive disorders. The slowed gastric emptying effect might exacerbate symptoms in conditions like gastroparesis. Therefore, it is important for patients with digestive disorders to consult their healthcare provider before starting GLP-1 agonist therapy. Thanks again for listening to The Peptide Podcast.

Struggling with IBS-D? Did you know it could be related to bile acid diarrhoea (BAD)?

This week we will continue our coverage of Bile acid malabsorption (BAM), a gastrointestinal disease. It's a common cause of chronic diarrhea. When bile acids aren't properly absorbed in your intestines, they build up, upsetting the chemical balance inside. Excess bile acids trigger your colon to secrete extra water, leading to watery stools. This week we will continue our coverage of Bile acid malabsorption (BAM), a gastrointestinal disease. It's a common cause of chronic diarrhea. When bile acids aren't properly absorbed in your intestines, they build up, upsetting the chemical balance inside. Excess bile acids trigger your colon to secrete extra water, leading to watery stools. Bile acid malabsorption (BAM) is often misdiagnosed as Irritable Bowel Syndrome or is overlooked in individuals with Crohn's disease. Bile Acid Malabsorption happens when the small intestine is unable to direct bile acid back to the liver. This means that the body doesn't absorb water properly and affects digestion. The condition results in what is known as Bile Acid Diarrhoea. How will a new test for Bile Acid Malabsorption be developed? Currently, the only test for bile acid malabsorption is the SeHCAT test which is expensive, time consuming and uses radiation. The team have developed a test which they believe will diagnose the condition more rapidly and cost effectively than the current test. For its initial testing phase, it will be used on stool (poo) samples, and in its second phase the research team will assess whether it can also guide treatment decisions on what dose should be given to individual patients. The aim of the study is to establish a better test for BAM, do the groundwork for a future study of the role of faecal bile acid measurements within the NHS, and use the data collected from this trial to prepare other studies to assist with the diagnosis and treatment of individuals with BAM. Why diagnose bile acid malabsorption? Chronic diarrhea is one of the most common reasons why people get referred to specialist gastroenterology clinics, and can account for as many as 1 in 20 referrals. Bile acid malabsorption is a major cause of chronic diarrhoea and is thought to affect up to 1 million people in the UK. As well as individuals with Crohn's disease, as many as one in three people diagnosed with IBS with diarrhoea (IBS-D) may actually be experiencing BAM but the current gold standard SeCHAT test is only available in certain UK centres. It is also time consuming and costly. In 2012 the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence's Diagnostic Advisory Group concluded that a new test for the diagnosis of BAM was needed.

Physician Assistant and prior C&P examiner Leah Bucholz discusses How can Medical Consultants Boost Your IBS Rating by 30%.Leah explains the intricacies of Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) in the context of VA disability ratings. She clarifies that IBS, a functional gastrointestinal disorder, often requires a diagnosis of exclusion, and mentions the Rome criteria used in its diagnosis. Leah categorizes IBS into three types: IBS-C (constipation), IBS-D (diarrhea), and IBS-M (mixed), and discusses its potential connection to military service either on a primary or secondary basis. She particularly notes its prevalence among Gulf War veterans. Regarding the VA disability rating, she states that IBS can be rated at 0%, 10%, or 30%, with 30% being the highest. This highest rating is given for severe symptoms like constant abdominal pain, alternating diarrhea and constipation. Leah emphasizes the importance of the Disability Benefits Questionnaire (DBQ) in assessing these conditions and suggests her other videos for further guidance, especially on IBS secondary to PTSD.
In this week's episode, I am joined by another amazing client - Alex! Alex first started to experience anxiety in high school, and as it was left untreated, it progressively worsened until they decided to go on medication in university. Initially, the medication helped them to feel more in control, until 2020, which was, of course, very stressful for many people. At this point, Alex was in the last year of their undergrad, about to start their master's. Not only did the anxiety and irrational thoughts worsen despite being on medication, journaling, and working with a naturopath, but a lot of gut issues also started to present themselves, like nausea, IBS-D, SIBO, and insomnia. Alex was just about to start working as a therapist and, as they put it, they had three options: increase the medication, change the medication, or figure out a different solution. The different solution was working with me, learning how to support their body optimally through a customized dietary plan, customized supplements, supporting drainage pathways, addressing SIBO and parasites, and so much more that we discuss in this episode! I'm so excited for you to hear this conversation, and I hope it inspires you to decide that it's time to dive in, do the work, and take control of your mental health. – – Get my free Three Secrets to Natural Anxiety Banishment webinar training here: https://courses.taygendron.com/3secrets Join my Breaking Up With Anxiety™ The Group Coaching Program here: https://www.taygendron.com/breaking-up-with-anxiety Let's hang out on Instagram! @tay.gendron Website: www.taygendron.com – – If you'd like to submit a question for future episodes, fill out this form https://bit.ly/ask-tay-anything in as much detail as possible.

Dr. Tom Fabian discusses Mast Cell Activation, Dysbiosis, and IBS at the Functional Medicine Discussion Group meeting on August 24, 2023 with moderator Dr. Ben Weitz. [If you enjoy this podcast, please give us a rating and review on Apple Podcasts, so more people will find The Rational Wellness Podcast. Also check out the video version on my WeitzChiro YouTube page.] Podcast Highlights 6:18 IBS is a condition that is diagnosed mainly by symptoms and these are part of the Rome IV Criteria. [These are found at TheRomeFoundation.org] There are four recognized subtypes of IBS: IBS-C (constipation), IBS-D (diarrhea), IBS-M (mixed), and IBS-U (undefined). Bloating and distension are common symptoms associated with IBS, but they are not officially included in the Rome IV criteria. There is no currently accepted test for the diagnosis of IBS. This is a good review article on what we currently know about IBS: Camilleri M, Boeckxstaens G. Irritable bowel syndrome: treatment based on pathophysiology and biomarkers. Gut. 2023 Mar;72(3):590-599. 11:38 There are a number of conditions that result in similar symptoms to IBS, including Bile-acid malabsorption, exocrine pancreatic insufficiency, carbohydrate intolerance, SIBO, SIFO, Dyssynergic defecation, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, mast cell activation syndrome, eosinophilic gastroenteritis, intra-abdominal adhesions, celiac disease, and giardiasis. Dr. Fabian noted that we are learning that a significant number of patients with IBS symptoms, esp. on the diarrhea side, have a sucrase-isomaltase deficiency, which is one of the brush border enzymes in the small intestine. This leads to a malabsorption of sucrose and certain starches. 16:15 IBS Mechanisms. Diet is an important factor since 85% of IBS patients report their symptoms are triggered by eating, often 60 min or so after eating. Leaky gut is a factor in most GI conditions. We see immunoactivation/inflammation, though a more subtle form of inflammation than what we see with inflammatory bowel disease like Crohn's disease. This is where mast cells come into play. There is also the gut-brain axis. 18:12 Disorders of Gut-Brain Interaction. The new name for functional GI disorders being adopted in research is Disorders of Gut-Brain Interaction. This is a good review article on this: Vanuytsel T, Bercik P, Boeckxstaens G. Understanding neuroimmune interactions in disorders of gut–brain interaction: from functional to immune-mediated disorders Gut 2023;72:787-798. We see as part of the pathophysiology in IBS a subtle mucosal infiltration of immune cells, especially mast cells and eosinophils, along with the increased release of nociceptive mediators, which lead to visceral hypersensitivity, which plays a role in abdominal pain. 22:20 The pathogenesis of IBS is explained well in the following article: Carco C, Young W, Gearry RB, Talley NJ, McNabb WC, Roy NC. Increasing Evidence That Irritable Bowel Syndrome and Functional Gastrointestinal Disorders Have a Microbial Pathogenesis. Front Cell Infect Microbiol. 2020 Sep 9;10:468. Dysfunctional microbiota leads to increased intestinal permeability that leads to immune activation that results in mast cell activation and visceral hypersensitivity that leads to abdominal pain, bloating, and altered motility. Dr. Tom Fabian is a leading expert on the role of the microbiome in health, immune function, chronic disease and aging. He received his PhD in molecular biology from the University of Colorado Boulder, and he's worked as a biomedical researcher in the biotechnology industry and more recently as a consultant in the microbiome testing field. Currently, Dr. Fabian serves as a consultant and science advisor with Diagnostic Solutions Lab. Tom's website is Microbiome Mastery.com. Dr. Ben Weitz is available for Functional Nutrition consultations specializing in Functional Gastrointestinal Disorder...
In this episode, Charlie Andrews speaks to Professor Julian Walters about bile acid malabsorption and diarrhoea. With up to a third of patients with diarrhoea-predominant IBS having underlying bile acid diarrhoea, and with diagnosis rates for this condition being low, this episode is an important one for anyone working in primary care. We explore the role and physiology of bile acids, the causes and symptoms of bile acid malabsorption, the diagnostic tests used to make the diagnosis and the treatment of this common but underdiagnosed condition. Should we use 'trial of treatment' in primary care to support the diagnosis? Are people who have had their gall bladder removed at greater risk of bile acid diarrhoea? Can bile acid sequestrants impact the absorption of other medications? These questions, and lots more, will be discussed in this episode.Key Learnings for Primary Care from this Ingest Podcast on Bile Acid DiarrhoeaOverview and PrevalenceBile acid diarrhoea (BAD), also known as bile acid malabsorption, is a significant but under-recognized cause of chronic diarrhoea in primary care. It is more common than Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis combined, with a prevalence of about 1% in the general population-comparable to coeliac disease[1]. BAD is often misdiagnosed as IBS with diarrhoea (IBS-D); about one third of patients with IBS-D may actually have BAD[1].Causes and ClassificationBAD is classified into three types: Type 1: Secondary to ileal disease or resection (e.g., Crohn's disease, surgical removal of terminal ileum) Type 2: Primary or idiopathic (often confused with IBS-D; thought to be due to overproduction of bile acids) Type 3: Other causes affecting absorption, such as cholecystectomy, small intestinal bacterial overgrowth, or radiation[1]. Post-cholecystectomy BAD is relatively common, affecting about 1 in 10 patients after gallbladder removal[1].Clinical PresentationPatients typically present with chronic, watery diarrhoea (Bristol stool types 6–7), often frequent (4–12 times daily), sometimes nocturnal, and can be long-standing (sometimes decades)[1]. There is often a long delay in diagnosis; nearly half of patients wait over five years for a correct diagnosis[1]. BAD is frequently overlooked in differential diagnosis, with clinicians more likely to investigate for IBD, coeliac disease, or cancer[1].Diagnosis in Primary CareThe key is to think about BAD as a possible diagnosis, especially in patients with chronic diarrhoea where other causes have been excluded[1]. The gold standard diagnostic test is the SeHCAT (selenium homocholic acid taurine) scan, which is widely available in the UK but not in all countries[1]. A retention value below 15% at seven days is diagnostic; lower values indicate more severe disease[1]. There is no simple blood test for BAD, unlike coeliac disease[1]. Empirical trials of bile acid sequestrants may be considered if SeHCAT is unavailable or in specific cases (e.g., pregnancy), but a confirmed diagnosis is preferred to guide treatment and improve adherence[1]. Before considering BAD, it is essential to exclude other causes of diarrhoea (negative coeliac serology, faecal calprotectin, and, depending on age, appropriate cancer screening)[1].TreatmentFirst-line treatment is with bile acid sequestrants: Cholestyramine: A powder taken in 4g sachets, usually started at night on an empty stomach for best effect (contrary to original cholesterol-lowering indications)[1].

Dr. Mark Pimentel discusses New Research Findings on SIBO and IBS at the Functional Medicine Discussion Group meeting on May 25, 2023 with moderator Dr. Ben Weitz. [If you enjoy this podcast, please give us a rating and review on Apple Podcasts, so more people will find The Rational Wellness Podcast. Also check out the video version on my WeitzChiro YouTube page.] Podcast Highlights 4:24 Dr. Pimentel started a fellowship at Cedars in 1996 on motility and his colleagues questioned why he would want to get involved with treating IBS patients, who are psychologically altered? Patients with IBS seemed like regular folks who were struggling and it is too easy to attribute medical conditions that are not well understood to psychological causes. He reflected on when heart disease was thought to be primarily due to stress and in the early 70s if you had a heart attack, you were told that you needed to quit your job. But it turned out that what caused their heart attack was more due to the steakhouse with the cholesterol and the alcohol and the smoking and your genetics and all the other things we learned about cardiovascular disease. One of his colleagues in 1996 told him that "IBS is a disease of hysterical women." 5:41 Anti-diarrheals. Even in the last three years, the AGA guidelines say that anti-diarrheals like Imodium should be first-line therapy for irritable bowel syndrome because they're cheap. This is not a good reason to recommend a medication, rather than trying to figure out the cause of IBS and then treating that. This is because the research that Dr. Pimentel has conducted and published for the last 26 years that demonstrates that SIBO is the main cause of IBS has still not been fully accepted by the GI community. 6:36 Food poisoning is the cause of about 60% of cases of IBS-D and there is now enough research data to prove this. The bacteria that cause food poisoning, whether it be E. coli or Campylobacter or Shigella or Salmonella secrete an endotoxin--Cytolethal Distending Toxin (CDT) and specifically the B version of CTD--CDTB--that leads to SIBO/IBS. The immune system reacts to the CDTB and those anti-CDTB antibodies end up cross reacting with a structural protein in the intestinal wall called Vinculin. Thus the immune system is attacking the body, an auto-immune reaction. This leads to damage of the nerves that control the intestinal cleansing waves, which leads to a buildup of the bacteria in the small intestine (SIBO). These small intestinal cleansing waves are peristaltic waves that are occur when you haven't eaten for more than 3 or 4 hours, which help to clear out excess bacteria. These cleansing waves are caused by the deep muscular plexus-interstitial cells of Cajal. Dr. Pimentel has developed a second generation test that measures antibodies to CDTB and to vinculin via blood testing that is extremely accurate, the IBS Smart test from Gemelli Biotech. 25:37 Methane SIBO (IMO) does not appear to be caused by food poisoning. By paralyzing the gut in the case of hydrogen and hydrogen sulfide SIBO, this can lead to diarrhea. In the case of methane, this causes the gut to hypercontract and this overcontraction of the gut muscles leads to constipation. 29:33 In a study published in 2020 Dr. Pimentel's group showed that a lactulose breath test--not a glucose breath test--and using the 90 minute cutoff of more than 20 parts per million increase in hydrogen it correlated well with the bacteria in the gut seen in culture and the hydrogen-producing enzyme machinery in the small intestine was elevated. This shows that the hydrogen is being produced in the small intestine and not in the colon.

For more information on this topic or to schedule a consultation please visit us at http://WhatIsHashimotos.com Are IBS and Hashimoto's related? The answer is yes. Irritable bowel syndrome, that is when you have intermittent constipation and diarrhea. You can have where it is more IBS-C, which is IBS, more leaning towards constipation, or IBS-D, which is meaning it's more leaning towards diarrhea, but usually some combination of both. Look, and the way that happens is, it will seem obvious when I say this, but the way that happens is, is your gut breaks down. And what that means is, is that, somewhere along the line, you start losing your ability to digest your food properly. And then, that creates a bad scenario in your small intestines, because you're not digesting your proteins, or you're not digesting your fats, or you're not digesting your starches. So, you start getting all this undigested food in your intestines, which isn't real happy about that. And then, just a bunch of things can start happening. The food can sit there. It can ferment. If you don't have enough hydrochloric acid in your stomach, because you're not digesting your proteins, so you can't have enough hydrochloric acid, you're not sterilizing your food properly. So, you may be getting H. pylori, or you may be getting infections in there, and so on and so forth. What does it have to do a Hashimoto's? And that mechanism is much more even complex and involved in that, but that's the basic start of how you end up getting irritable bowel syndrome. The number one cause of that is chronic stress. And the reason that chronic stress causes that it's because... This goes back to survival mode and this goes back to fight flight responses. When you go into full bore fight flight, somebody's just about to come after you and is getting ready to do a number on you, and you have to decide whether you're going to fight or you're going to flee, your brain literally shuts down your intestines and your urinary bladder. Because, you don't need to be peeing or pooping while you're, or eating, while you're trying to get away from the bear, okay? All your resources need to be going elsewhere. They need to be going to your muscles. They need to be going your brain. You need to think better. You need to be stronger. You need to be quicker. You need to have more oxygen going to your lungs. And all of that happens while your gut's being shut down. On a lower level than that, if you are just stressed, it doesn't shut down your gut, but it semi-paralyzes it. It slows down the ability of it to move through. It causes your stomach to not make that hydrochloric acid that you need to sterilize your food, to digest your proteins. It's slows your gallbladder down. Number one cause for gallbladder's coming out, stress. Pancreas will slow down, which can screw up your blood sugar. And all these things from stress and more. Most of you are probably aware of how devastating stress is. http://powerhealthtalk.com http://drmartinrutherford.com Martin P.

Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend! I'm looking forward to sharing with you some of our community's questions that have come in over the past few weeks… Simon: Hi Dr Cabral, I have a quick question on sugar vs non-caloric sweeteners such as xylitol, erythritol and mannitol. I mostly eat a very healthy Mediterranean diet however sweets are my guilty pleasure! I try not too eat too much sugar and avoid artificial sweeteners at all cost, so lately I've been buying some ice cream and chocolate sweetened with xylitol and erythritol assuming this would be 'better for me', but deep down I'm wondering whether a bit of sugar would actually be better than these additives. I've listened to your podcasts on natural non-nutritive sweeteners but never heard you directly compare them to sugar and say which would be a healthier choice. For context I'm fit and healthy with good insulin sensitivity but have suffered from IBS-D in the past. Thanks! Luke: I have been through quite a lot, from going to the gym 6 days a week, eating relatively balanced, happy and healthy individual to one day January 2nd 2021, massive panic attack I thought i was going to die. 2 weeks later, Fibromyalgia symptoms, then Chronic Fatigue, then burning sensations all over my body, then balance issues, then brain fog got so bad I didn't even recognize who I was. I ended up with 30 plus chronic symptoms. I found functional medicine and I have healed 20 of the 30 symptoms I was experiencing but some still remain. I am a strong believer that EBV was the main cause for all of this. My remaining symptoms are (new symptom) very warm sensation, feels like someone poured warm milk down the left side of my leg, calf mainly but also my arm and sometimes my head. ER said these warm sensations are nothing to worry about and go home. Ectopic beats, could this be EBV or the parasite, I did a 6 month parasite protocol Still have Blastocystis hominis. But because I got 80% better, was it really ever the parasite as a lot of people I spoke to said it is super bad. But I could never get rid of it with taking very targeted supplements like everything in your parasite protocol and also a 10 day course of a compounded anti parasitic antibiotic. I feel my heart beat generally all over my body, very heavy at times especially when I do something active, I think the main issue is that I can feel it. I've been through 2 cardioligist and they say everything is normal and fine and benign ectopics. This is the main issue I want to get rid of. Still fatigue and bodily sensations remain too. I WAS 80 percent better, but now about 50% better. Surely after 12 months of clean eating, protocols left right and centre, targeted supplements to go along with my results, I would be feeling the needle move forward and not backwards. What am I missing here? Thank you Dr Cabral Joy: Hello Dr Cabral, my question/concern is related to pancreatic insufficiency. After years of being treated for CBO then SIBO, plus ongoing treatment for past trauma and still no improvement, actually feeling worse with more bloating and gas my gastroenterologist did more stool testing. The results showed pancreatic insufficiency. I am told the only way to treat this is by taking the prescription digestive enzymes. I was also told just take the enzymes and I'll be fine, that I should be able to eat what I want. I have been taking the enzymes for over a month now and still experiencing bloating and gas, although much better than before taking them. Are taking the enzymes the only answer? There must be other things I can do I support my system? Thank you for your help! Thank you for all you do! Joan: Hi Dr. Cabral, I'm addicted to your podcasts. :) Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us for free!! My question: I know you said something to the effect that anything that's wrong with the body can be fixed or reversed, but does that pertain to mental issues as well? I'm 57 and have been diagnosed with bipolar disorder. I've been taking SSRIs for 30 years. I'm worried that there will be poor long-term side effects. I'm also afraid to wean off them because I've tried that and it wasn't pretty. Thank you for your help! Joan Thomas: What would you do about a high AG ratio? My Albumin has been high for two years in a row, and this year my globalin level got closer to the bottom of the range triggering a high A/G ratio. I do the quarterly Dr. Cabral detox and typically add in the blueberries and sweet potatoes day 3 since I'm apt to losing weight.

I've been so excited to share this episode as I give you a deep dive into my gut healing journey this year. I've lived with IBS-C and IBS-D, alternating between the two, my entire life. It's become something I've just learned to manage. This year, I said EFF that. We're getting to the bottom of it. Through the exploration of myself through shadow work - I was led to the root of it all: unworthiness and it reveleased itself physically in the form of a diagnosis of Candida.In this episode, I share how shadow + inner child work helped my physical protocol, making it so much more effective, as well as the emotions buried deep beneath my gut issues, and SO MUCH more.

Berberine is an isoquinolone alkaloid that is bitter and bright golden yellow in color. It is derived mainly from the roots, stems and rhizomes of plants such as Coptis chinensis (Chinese golden thread), Hydrastis canadensis (goldenseal), Berberis aquifolium (Oregon grape), and Berberis vulgaris (barberry). It has been used for thousands of years in traditional Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine and is generally considered safe, though it should be avoided during pregnancy and lactation.

These include abdominal pain, distention, nausea, vomiting, and constipation. Side effects appear to be dose dependent, with increased symptoms such as low blood pressure, dyspnea, and flu-like symptoms at higher doses. Berberine is commonly used as an antibacterial, antiviral, antimicrobial, antifungal, and antihyperlipidemic agent. The many therapeutic applications of berberine are due to its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, making it one of the top supplements of choice in clinical practice.

In today's episode of Luxury IBS, I am sharing nine tips for IBS-D. I got a lot of wonderful feedback from people who loved the IBS-C episode, so I knew I had to do one for IBS-D. You''ll notice there are a lot of similarities between the two but there are two major differences between the two that I mention in this episode, My hope is that once you master these tips, it'll be very easy to tweak them based on whether you have IBS- C or IBS-D. I talk about what IBS-D is, the BRAT diet, and low FODMAP diet, the importance of soluble fibre and CBT therapy.

Jag behöver alltid veta var närmsta toa finns, och i vissa sammanhang som man är i så finns det ingen, säger Emelie Lundros som har diagnosen IBS-D, alltså IBS med diarrésymtom.Hon fick sin diagnos 2005, men det skulle dröja 15 år innan hon, genom att träffa en dietist, hittade en metod som hjälpte henne FODMAP-behandling. Men kosten är bara en del av det. Så stresshantering, sömn och vilken typ av träning du gör, allt sånt spelar också roll, säger hon.Kosten är en viktig komponent i att hitta en hållbar behandlingsform för personer med IBS. Länge har man pratat om den så kallade FODMAP-dieten,som går ut på att utesluta fermenterbara kolhydrater. Men nu har en forskningsgrupp vid Chalmers tekniska högskola genomfört en studie där resultaten pekar åt ett annat håll. Vi antog att personerna med IBS som deltog i studien skulle få olika typer av magproblem när vi provocerade dem med FODMAPS och gluten, men det blev inte så, säger Elise Nordin, som ligger bakom studien.Gäster i programmet: Greger Lindberg, överläkare och professor vid Karolinska institutet, Lisa Falk, leg. psykolog, Elise Nordin, doktorand vid avdelningen för livsmedelsstudier på Chalmers och Stine Störsrud, överdietist och medicinedoktor.Programledare är Ulrika Hjalmarson Neideman

Stress has a profound impact on our bodies. It impacts our nervous system by way of altering the gut-brain connection. Some people experience stress in the form of hypermotility (as seen with IBS-D) and other people experience it as hypomotility (as seen with IBS-C). Learning to manage our mindset is a helpful tool which can help improve how we cope with IBS and other digestive symptoms. This week I interview Dr. Parastoo Jangouk on the gut-brain connection and the ways that our mindset perspective influences our intestinal health. Dr Parastoo Jangouk is dual board certified in Gastroenterology, Internal Medicine and a life coach. She has particular interest in gut health, brain-gut interaction, gut microbiome, fitness, weight loss and mindset work. Dr Jangouk incorporates her coaching skills in promoting gut health, weight loss and treating patients with functional gastrointestinal disorders. She authored numerous peer-reviewed publications in prestigious medical journals. She is currently living in Austin, TX where she practices Gastroenterology. We talk about: How Dr. Jangouk became interested in the field of gastroenterology The gut-brain connection The role that hormones play in digestion How our gut microbiome interacts with our gut Where the main source of serotonin production is in our bodies What influences our digestive health and how it impacts our gut microbiome The interaction between our gut and our immune system How stress, what we think about food, and our symptoms influence digestive disorders The difference between circumstances and thoughts How to deal with stressful situations How shifting our thoughts influences our symptom perception and builds resiliency How to shift our mindset perspective and strategies to help resolve unhelpful thoughts Connect with Parastoo on her website at mindgutfitmd.com on Instagram @mindgutfitmd or on Twitter or on her Facebook here as well!

In this episode, Brian E. Lacy, MD, PhD, joins us to discuss the American College of Gastroenterology’s newest guidelines for irritable bowel syndrome, options for patients with IBS-D and IBS-C, and much more. Brought to you by Red Hill Biopharma. Intro :02 Can you briefly review the process that led to the final document? 1:31 All recommendations are not created equal in this guideline or any guideline … do you think that is a fair statement? 3:56 Do you have some key takeaways for listeners in regards to the diagnostic evaluation of patients with IBS? 4:38 There’s always this debate about fecal calprotectin or fecal lactoferrin or CRP … what do you do in your own practice? 6:13 What do you want to tell the listeners in terms of testing to adequately screen for Celiac disease in their patients with IBS symptoms? 7:49 Does it matter how you biopsy? 9:57 What was your perspective on some of the new serologies for IBS? 11:51 Can you review pelvic floor testing in patients with IBS and what the listeners should be thinking about and what they should do? 15:00 Do you see potentially IBS-D and IBS-C-specific guidelines coming out in the future? 17:14 Several commonly used therapies for IBS have weak recommendations or recommendations against their use. Can you talk about this or whether you use these therapies in your practice? 20:29 What do you tell patients when they ask you about whether they should get their stool analyzed or provide you with a report from testing they’ve already done? 26:10 Stool samples: are they even the best thing we should be measuring? 29:07 What’s the proportion of patients that possibly or potentially mismanaged getting colonoscopies, being started on expensive medications, being started on probiotics and how do we shift from this guideline and really getting this spread out in practice? 30:44 The growing list of options for patients with IBS and constipation 37:57 Opinions on the available options for patients with IBS-D? 39:49 Thank you again, Dr. Lacy 41:15 Brian E.

Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend! I’m looking forward to sharing with you some of our community’s questions that have come in over the past few weeks… Let’s get started! Simon: Hello and thank you Dr Cabral! We are expecting our second baby in late November and I am preparing for six-plus months of reduced and interrupted sleep with additional stress. I'm wondering what your best recommendations are for preparing for, and dealing with, this taxing time? My main concerns are impacts on energy and focus (at work, exercising, and being a good father), as well as general health and not reversing my last 12 months healing from chronic IBS-D. I've listened to all your podcasts on adaptogens and figure a maintenance dose of stress-reliving supplements like Adrenal Sooth, swapping with or adding energy-boosting supplements like Adrenal Energy Support on days when I need more energy and focus at work? What do you think of Korean and American ginseng for energy also?Are there any supplements or practices that benefit sleep when you know it will be frequently interrupted?Many thanks! Simon: Hello Dr Cabral, Simon here again! As above I am preparing for a period of reduced sleep and increased stress when our second baby arrives. I normally like to train frequently (mix of weights, calisthenics, yoga and cardio) and do want to keep fit over this period, however I am cautious not to impact my overall health and energy by adding additional stress to on my body and waring myself out. How would you approach exercise over this period? I am a Vata/Pita body type. Samantha: Hi Dr Cabral!Do you ever use Chaste tree in your practice for pms symptoms and/or to help stimulate progesterone in someone with estrogen dominance?Thank you so much! I just completed the big 5 labs and am working with one of your health coaches. :) Thank you again for all you do. I have learned so much through your podcasts and wouldn't be where I am today without you. Jessica: Hey Dr. Cabral, thanks for all you do! I am a healthy 36 year old female. For the past few years I have had two issues that I have tried to fix with a healthy diet and a decent amount of supplements that I take daily with no help. Firstly, I have horizontal ridges in my nails that are worst/deepest/sometimes only in my thumbs (which can get uncomfortable almost painful at times). Secondly, I lose a lot of hair, like a ton when I get out of the shower. Not sure if these items are related but they are both very frustrating. I workout every day (running or HIIT), I am vegan and gluten free, not really stressed, I've taken a food sensitivity test, and I take a bunch of vitamins daily. Any idea what could be causing this to happen? Thanks so much. Marissa: Hi Dr. Cabral. I’m hoping you can do a podcast or provide some advice on “red skin syndrome” aka topical steroid withdrawal. I’ve been withdrawing from corticosteroids for about 5 months now and am more than ready to be healed completely. Do you have any advice how I can speed up the process? Chris: Hi Dr Cabral,I have a perplexing situation that I hope you can shed some light on. This summer, my husband who has no known allergies, went for a run outside and after coming home and starting the cool down process, he broke out in hives all over his body, from head to toe. His face swelled up as well as his tongue (although no trouble breathing) and became super itchy on certain parts of his body. He took Bendadryl and a Pepcid AC (as prescribed by his sister, a nurse) and the reaction slowly went away over about a period of an hour or so. This happened twice during the heat. We assumed it was heat rash or he swiped against a bush and had a reaction to it, but then it just happened again in mid-October in Chicago on a very cool day. The only common denominator we can think of is that the night before he drank some beers and then went for a run the next day, however this would be odd to have a reaction when he's had beers several times throughout his adult life and then exercised the following day with no issues. He is 40 yrs old, in great shape with no known medical issues besides psorasis {for which he takes a monthly injection :(}. What could be causing this strange reaction? Thank you.

The Whole View, Episode 427: The Link Between IBS and Osteoporosis Welcome back to episode 427 of the Whole View. (0:34) Stacy shares that she's the one who actually requested this topic. Stacy says she has many people in her life with gut-related issues. Yet she doesn't really know the difference between IBS, IBD, Crohn's, and Colitis. She's not sure how she's gotten to this point. But she does know she needs to take a step forward in her knowledge base. Stacy and Sarah talk about gut health on this show because of how important it is. And just like the universe, the knowledge on this is ever-expanding. Stacy believes that this topic is foundational to understanding gut health. Sarah shares she's been researching the gut microbiome for over six years. When she decided to write a book about it, she thought it would be the same amount of information as in her other books. However, she's found that it changed her perspective on literally everything she and Stacy talk about. Sarah thinks she's finally at a place in her research where she finally has a handle on the vast amount of research there is out there. Listener Question Regarding Osteoporosis Sarah dives in with a listener question. (5:05) "Sarah and Stacy- I am so inspired by your podcast. My husband and I have been listening for years. We binged them all initially, and now listen weekly while preparing dinners together. We have benefited greatly from your advice and recommended products. I have Sarah’s Paleo Approach and sleep books, we use our Joovv everyday, I switched us all to safer Beautycounter products from Stacy about two years ago. So thank you for making such a positive difference in our lives! My mother was just diagnosed with full blown osteoporosis, notably in her right femur bone. Her bone test four years ago was healthy. My question is whether her struggles with IBS and gut health might have played a role in her diagnosis, and what could she do now to improve it?" Stacy jokes about how much she loves nice, positive, complimentary questions. She suggests that before they get into answering the question directly, they look at the root cause. There is a reason that osteoporosis exists, and it's something they've discussed on previous shows, as well as nutrient deficiencies. This inevitably leads to IBS and other issues, and how that plays into nutrient deficiencies. Stacy suggests they back and talk a bit about those other gut-related issues first. Sarah agrees that explaining the issue is a lot like a spiderweb. It has many different threads coming out of the middle and linking many of the other conditions. What Are The Differences? Sarah goes back to Stacy's questions at the beginning of the show, regarding the differences between IBS, IBD, Crohn's, and ulcerative colitis. (7:53) IBD stands for Inflammatory Bowel Disease, while IBS stands for Irritable Bowel Syndrome. Crohn's and ulcerative colitis are included under IBD. What separates them is which part of the bowel is impacted by the autoimmune diseases. Celiac disease is not characterized as an IBD due to its link with gluten as a trigger but is an autoimmune disease that causes inflammation in the bowel. Sarah goes on to explain that IBS is a diagnosis of exclusion. It's the label given once all other bowel issues are tested for and ruled out. Sarah expresses how frustrating IBS can be because it's such a catch-all. You go in with an irritable gut, and when you test negative for all the things they can test for, they go, "congratulations, you have an irritable gut. Sarah shares her personal story of getting diagnosed with IBS-C. It can be classified as diarrhea-predominant (IBS-D), constipation-predominant (IBS-C), with alternating stool pattern (IBS-A). People can experience: Abdominal pain, cramping, or discomfort Gastrointestinal: change in bowel habits, constipation, diarrhea, inability to empty bowels, indigestion, nausea, passing excessive amounts of gas, or urgent need to defecate Also common: anxiety, depression, discomfort, loss of appetite, or symptoms alleviated by defecation Stacy asks Sarah whether the depression she spoke of could be caused directly by gut health issues or as a side effect of the symptoms' discomfort. Sarah shares some of the research that emerged in recent years that points to possible causes. Possible Causes of IBS IBS might not be just one thing, but possibly a bunch of different things that all get a diagnosis of exclusion label. (16:40) Sarah goes on to explain that the research in the last 10 years has pointed to two main possible causes that are probably closely related. And are also a probable link to IBS and other health issues, including mental health. Food Intolerance Sarah says one of the most common factors causing IBS patients' symptoms is a food intolerance, with some studies reporting it in up to 89% of their patients. Patients with IBS understand that specific types of food trigger their symptoms: usually. These include legumes, vegetables, lactose-containing foods, fatty foods, stone fruits, and artificial sweeteners. This includes food allergies and is studied via blood tests and trial and error removal. Another way this is often studied and combated is by putting people on low FODMAP and gluten-free diets, which have shown greater even results. Stacy takes a moment to underline the fact that there are medications out there that don't even have the 70% improvement rate that these dietary changes do. Stacy wonders how many doctors are prescribing low FODMAP diets. Sarah shares that she doesn't have those numbers, but she can say no one talked diet with her through her IBS experience. Stacy shares when you struggle with these symptoms for so long, you don't really know what "normal" is. Often, doctors aren't given information and description that would prove helpful because nothing is out of the ordinary to the patient. Sarah explains that the issue here is that IBS is kind of a useless diagnosis because there are so many shades of it. 24:57 Sarah thinks that one of the things adding to this percentage of success is that many people who see improvement by going on a low FODMAP diet have never tried changing their diets before that point. She said that the reason so many people might be responding to a FODMAP diet is that they're eliminating wheat from their diets. FODMAP intolerance is most typically caused by gut dysbiosis, which co-occurs (chicken vs egg) with stress, poor digestion, leaky gut. Gut Dysbiosis This growing body of literature shows that with IBS, there is a loss of bacterial diversity, the establishment of problematic and opportunistic pathogens-like species in the gut, a lack of probiotic species, and many other things we know are associated with health conditions in general. (26:24) That kind of imbalance in the microbial community in the gut by itself can drive IBS symptoms but can also explain the reactions we see in dietary interventions. About 60% of the inputs that determine what bacteria are growing in our digestive tract is diet. And the other 40% is lifestyle, exposures (environmental toxins, supplements, drugs, hormones), stress, sleep, etc. Sarah explains that the gut microbiome's composition can shift dramatically in just a few days or weeks, depending on what the "starting microbiome" looks like. What happens in the gut microbiome when diet changes are made is it's finding a new equilibrium. This eventually reaches stability in about six months. Unknown vitamin deficiencies (such as Vitamin D), lifestyle factors, and heavy metal or pesticide exposure are also known to drive gut dysbiosis. Sarah explains that this means you might have a gut-bacterial-profile that produces a lot more gas when you consume gluten or a FODMAP-rich food. Sarah sums up that FODMAP intolerance is basically a measurement of gut dysbiosis. The Unrealized Impact Stacy shares how she's recently been seeing a lot of people talk about bloating as being "normal" right now. (30:38) She believes that just because it's common doesn't mean it's normal. And that seeing 75% of people having symptom reduction just from going gluten-free is brain exploding results. Stacy thinks that there's a vast majority of people who aren't talking about it with their doctors, nor are they seeking out functional medicine practitioners and wholistic nutritionists to help. Most people who are doing that are kind of already making dietary changes. Gut Dysbiosis As An Indicator Stacy tries to wrap her brain around how many people could be living happier lives, healthier lives, just by making this change. (32:18) She explains that that's the really important part, and gets us back to the question at hand because it isn't just about discomfort. This really can cause, especially long-term, serious health problems. Sarah explains that though it's not the only indicator, you're not going to experience IBS if you have a completely healthy gut microbiome. It's just not something that happens. The research actually links gut dysbiosis with every chronic illness. It's easy to think of it in terms of GI issues but is, in fact, linked to diabetes, obesity, cardiovascular disease, cancer, mental health disorders, autoimmune diseases, asthma, and osteoporosis. Sarah also explains that it's linked in a couple of different ways. Gut bacteria are very important modulators of our immune function and control how our immune system responds to stimuli. Gut bacteria also controls our gut-barrier. Sarah also goes into the connection between leaky gut and the gut microbiome. This is because the microbiome is controlling how leaky the gut barrier is. So to fix one, you need to fix the other. Gut Microbiome and Osteoporosis If your gut barrier is not working properly, you are not absorbing nutrients properly, such as calcium. (34:41) Sarah explains that even after we're done growing, our bones are being constantly broken down and built back up. This is done in equilibrium, and it's what gives us bone structure. We lose that balance as we age, but also through nutritional and lifestyle imbalances. Sarah also explains the more diversity you have in your gut, the more density you have. The less bone density you have, the greater your chance of having and/or developing osteoporosis. The Question of Obesity Stacy asks if we're able to call out the issue of obesity for a moment. And whether it's contributes to an unhealthy microbiome, or rather a result of, similar to osteoporosis. (38:40) Sarah explains a phenomenon of weight gain regarding the obesity microbiome and how it drives the increased health risks of obesity. She tells us that the takeaway form the research done is that it's not so much the weight that indicates health status, but the healthy choices. For more information on this topic, check out Episode 421: Body Image. Stacy takes a minute to remind listeners that what is said on this show is not meant to make anyone feel guilt or shame or things like health and/or weight. She explains that what matters is you are doing the best you can do for your health with the information available to you. Adding stress or anxiety does not do anything to help you reach a healthier you. Fixing IBS Sarah takes a few minutes to run through a quick recap of information covered in previous shows due to these topics' tendency to overlap. She also goes over a few action-points covered in her Gut Guidebook. Sarah notes that low-FODMAPS can make dysbiosis worse, even if it improves symptoms, which is why she personally doesn't recommend this diet. She reminds listeners that more people responded to gluten-free in IBS studies than low-FODMAP. And that wheat is eliminated on low-FODMAP diets as well. But many gut-microbiome-beneficial foods that might not be contributing to IBS symptoms are cut out as well, putting you at a disadvantage. Stacy and Sarah discuss the benefits of low-FODMAP diets as a temporary treatment. Notable Episodes for More Information A high variety of veggies, fruit, mushrooms, nuts, and seeds are very important to a healthy gut microbiome. If anything increases symptoms, be sure to back off of it and add it back in gradually. Try cooked veggies, purees, smoothies for IBS-D, and try raw salads for IBS-C symptoms. This is something Stacy and Sarah have covered in many other episodes: 30 Fruits and Vegetables a Week?! How Many Vegetables (Part 4) Powdered Veggies What's Better: Raw or Cooked Vegetables? How Many Vegetables Part 3: Souping vs Smoothies How Many Vegetables?! The Gut Health Benefits of Nuts Stacy and Sarah discussed the benefits of increasing fish intake and/or take fish oil in Episode 415: Fish oil, Healthy or not? And the importance of hydration in Episode 406: Got Water? In Episode 414: Best Cooking Fats for Gut Health, Sarah and Stacy talked about EVOO as go-to fat. Probiotic foods (sauerkraut, kombucha, kefir), discussed in Episode 329: The Link Between Carb Intolerance & Gut Health, are also great avenues to explore. Sarah reminds listeners to get enough sleep and do so on a consistent schedule. Manage stress is also important, as discussed in Episode 397: Practical Tips for the Sleep Stress Cycle. Sarah also recommends increasing activity (but avoid overtraining), especially walking. She explains that microorganisms operate on a cycle, so the best practice is to eat distinct meals, with 12-14 hours fast overnight. What About Milk and Dairy? Stacy jokes that what Sarah is really saying is we can solve many of these issues by drinking large glasses of fortified cows milk. She reminds listeners, however, many milk-based products in stores have a lot of additives. She goes on to say that veggies are not only adding the nutrition you need, but also fiber, antioxidants, and many of the anti-inflammatory properties the body needs. Stacy tells the audience that that's why milk isn't on their list, but is commonly associated with other lists regarding bone health and osteoporosis. Sarah jokes about dropping some mind blowing science on us. She tells us that studies show the strongest dietary factor contributing to healthy bone is fruit and vegetable intact. And that it's much strong than results from dairy intake. How Fruits and Vegetables Help Sarah cites that the calcium in fruits and vegetables are actually easier for our bodies to absorb: "Not only do fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, and seafood contain substantial amounts of calcium, but there is scientific evidence that we absorb more calcium from cruciferous vegetables (like kale) than we do from dairy." Cruciferous vegetables (like kale, cabbage, broccoli, collard greens, and turnip greens) may be the best source of dietary calcium. Several studies show that fruit and vegetable intake correlates much more strongly with bone health than dairy intake. The scientific evidence is mixed on dairy and bone health. Some studies indicating that higher dairy consumption may increase the risk of fractures and osteoporosis. Sarah attributes this to the critical role the gut microbiome plays throughout our entire body, Yes, to prevent osteoporosis and look after your bones, eat your veggies! Bone Health Nutrients There’s at least twenty micronutrients that are essential for bone health. Bone is composed of a mixture of minerals (calcium, phosphorous, magnesium, sodium and potassium, mainly) deposited around a protein matrix that acts as a scaffold. It’s the combination of inorganic (minerals) and organic (protein) materials that provide bone with both strength and flexibility. About 65% of bone tissue is minerals, chiefly calcium and phosphorous. The remaining 35% a protein matrix, 90 to 95% of which is type I collagen. Once fully grown, bones are constantly being remodeled at an equilibrium that decreases as we age. As bone density drops, we see the development of osteoporosis. Sarah also tells listeners that maintaining insulin sensitivity is key to regulating bone remodeling. Bone Health and Osteoporosis The major protein in bone is collagen. Vitamin C, copper and zinc are essential for collagen formation Calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, potassium Fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, and K2 in particular) are essential regulators in bone mineralization. TWV Podcast Episode 417: Vitamin K2, Hype, or Essential? TPV Episode 354: Everything Vitamin D vitamin D status influences calcium absorption. So, testing to make sure your serum vitamin D levels are in the functional range (50 to 70 ng/mL is probably optimal) and supplementing accordingly is essential. Veggies for the win! Final Thoughts Stacy returns to the listener's question from the beginning of the show about whether or not a struggle with IBS could later develop osteoporosis. (1:09:02) She says, looking back at all the science, the answer is yes. Stacy suggests she now follow protocol for improving gut health. She also says to be mindful of short-term FODMAP diet. And potentially conferring with a holistic approach. Stacy explains that when you're experiencing health issues with a certain part of your body, one of the best things you can do is consume animal parts of that body. For example, bone broth contains many of the nutrients needed to support bone. Stacy recommends replacing soup and stew recipes that call for vegetable broth with bone broth. If you're interested in learning more about bone broth, check out Episode 313. Stacy says one of the most important things to take away from this episode is nourishing your bones with the nutrients you need. Stacy thanks listeners for spending this time with them. She reminds us that there a show on collagen on the docket (as soon as Sarah can get her head wrapped around the science).

Do you know someone who has to get up and go to the bathroom and poop as soon as they get done eating? Or maybe someone who feels like they need to be close to a bathroom at all times, just in case they might have diarrhea? Maybe you suffer from urgency, stomach cramps or that feeling of having to go to the bathroom again right after you just went. Are you suffering with irritable bowel syndrome(IBS)? IBS affects more than 25-45 million people in the US. Worldwide, it is thought that 10-15% of the population may be affected with this disease. In this episode we hear from Joseph, Reilly, PharmD, from AntlantiCare in Pomona, New Jersey. He has spoken about IBS and how Lotronex can be considered as a first line therapy for patients with irritable bowel syndrome with diarrhea predominance for years. You will learn what the symptoms and struggles of those suffering from IBS, what serotonin has to do with IBS, and how Alosetron/Lotronex can be used. Dr. Reilly also addresses the safety of the medication. Subscribe and Listen today and leave us a review
Welcome back to our weekend Cabral HouseCall shows! This is where we answer our community's wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging questions to help people get back on track! Check out today's questions: Haley: This is my favorite podcast and love starting my days learning from you, thank you! For your product review, I would love your thoughts on the BiomeFX lab. My doctor wants me to do this lab, and I would love a second opinion. I had a parasitic infection a few years ago and most recently, candida overgrowth (but no detected parasites one year ago). I haven't done any labs in a year, and I think I may still have candida overgrowth and would like to know if I also have parasites/mold toxicity. Thank you for your input since you're truly an expert!Link to lab recommended by naturopath: https://microbiomelabs.com/home/products/biomefx/?gclid=CjwKCAjw4rf6BRAvEiwAn2Q76rUMGdGLWsVkKLG-3UMEZsumpfbOOposiy48CVX3I--OQcvucYHFkhoCEGMQAvD_BwE Mo: Hey Dr Cabral, Mo here again! My question today has to do with bowel movements. I did the 21 day detox, the parasite protocol and the intestinal cleanse. Doing the CBO as well with GSE drops. I’ve been noticing that the past couple weeks instead of my normal 2-3 bowel movements which were all solid and formed properly, I’m getting only one bowel movement (first one) that is formed and normal. The other 1-2 after are either liquid or very small bits. I haven’t changed anything in my meals. I literally eat the same meals everyday, breakfast lunch and dinner everyday is the same. Smoothie (purple crush), Mediterranean lunch and dinner. Any ideas what this might be for? I don’t ever bloat, no pains, no cravings (I force myself to do cheat meals lol).Thank you as always for what you do, greatly appreciate your time and assistance!-biggest fan Mo Josh: Hi dr Cabral. Thank you for all your wisdom. After my tick bite (rmsf) in 2015 I still find myself having symptoms. I took a genetic test and it said I have mthfr with mast cell activation and my body is poor at getting rid of histamine. How can I calm mast cells down and keep histamine at bay. Thank you Simon: Hello Dr Cabral! I have been following the protocols of the Rain Barrel Effect for 6+ months now and am finally starting to see some improvement in my chronic IBS-D and overall health. One thing that I have really been struggling with however is finishing dinner a few hours before bed, due to work hours, family schedules, social norms, and trying to go to bed earlier. I typically finish 1.5hr before bed and try not to eat too much (which is difficult for me) or eat hard to digest foods (often out of my control). I was wondering if there were any protocols to 'increase digestion' speed or mitigate the negative effects of eating close to bedtime? Some which occurred to me were digestive enzymes (or natural substitutes like ginger or bitters) or apple cider vinegar before the meal. What would you suggest? Thank you once again! Kristin: do you have any details on Myasthenia Gravis conditions Jasmine: Hello Dr. Cabral, I first want to say thank you so much for all of the knowledge you share via your podcast and in The RBE. I am reaching out to ask about which type of test would you recommend in diagnosing a gut based issue. I am unsure if I should get a colonoscopy, ultrasound, or something else.Since the summer of 2018, I have been dealing with on and off again constipation, diarrhea, bloating and abdominal pain. It gets in the way of everyday normal activities, like teaching and being out somewhere (concert, gym, etc). I have gone to several doctors, including GI specialists, who in most part have ignored my issues. Recently, I have been having severe constipation and will not have a bowel movement for 3-4 days, and will only have one after I drink senna tea. Besides this issue, I am a healthy 29 year old female who works out four times a week, is within an optimal BMI range, sleeps 7-8 hours a night (some nights are more difficult than others to stay asleep), drinks almond milk, and eats organic/ grass-fed when I can. After receiving a diagnosis, I would like to work one-on-one with you to solve this issue and become healthy again.

On today’s episode of Vital Metabolic, hosts James Wheeler and John Parker break down different elimination diets, such as the Carnivore Diet, Whole30, and Paleo AIP. Elimination diets get a bad wrap in the tabloids, but the fact is that some foods can have negative effects on our bodies. At the end of the day, it’s up to us to find out which diet works best for our body! Episode Highlights: Most people do not realize the importance of elimination when it comes to dieting and nutrition. 1:18 Food sensitivity tests would indicate that everyone should try some sort of elimination diet. 2:27 Gluten, corn, soy, and dairy are the most common inflammatory foods that elimination diets tend to target. 3:07 Not everyone needs to go have tests done; sometimes, people just need to clean up their lifestyle. 4:25 James has mostly stuck to a paleolithic diet, but before this, as a trainer and business owner, he was constantly feeling drained. 5:05 People with active lifestyles make the mistake of thinking that they can eat foods that are high on the glycemic index. 6:20 Breaking down a carnivorous diet and the differences that James saw in his mental and physical health. 7:18 John consumes a mostly carnivore-ish diet to battle his ongoing IBS. 8:50 Vegans have reported being hungry all the time, partly due to the lack of protein and fat in their diet. 10:00 Energy levels can be much more sustained with a high-protein high-fat diet as compared to a glucose-based diet. 10:55 Exogenous glucose involves consuming foods that are high on the glycemic index and are entering your body as glucose already. 11:40 Carnivore diets have been shown to battle degenerative conditions such as Rheumatoid Arthritis. 14:10 It’s important to test out what foods work for you after going through an elimination diet. 15:15 James followed the vertical diet for 60 days and noticed that he became dose-dependent on carbohydrates after he was done. 16:10 The world needs to get over the myth that carbohydrates are bad, but they can be overconsumed. 18:12 Diet cheating is a sign of mental issues and can be categorized as a form of addiction. 20:10 Hara Hachi Bu involves eating until you are 80% full and could be the reason that the rest of the world has lower obesity rates than western countries. 22:00 It’s as simple as keeping these addicting foods out of your house; eliminate the temptation. 23:55 Paleo Autoimmune Protocol (AIP) can have incredible physical benefits but may not be sustainable for every. 25:50 When you can stop assigning so much pleasure to food, you will be able to see food as medicine. 28:12 You can practice an elimination diet while still loving to eat food. 32:00 Whole30 works towards eliminating all those inflammatory foods that your body doesn’t actually need. 32:50 Lectins in plant food obstruct the body’s ability to absorb minerals from the food. 35:53 Gastrointestinal distress can be a result at the beginning of an elimination diet because of your body’s over-dependence on fiber. 36:48 As someone who suffers from IBS-D, John finds that a lower-fiber diet makes him feel the best. 39:12 It’s up to each of us to listen to our bodies and decide which diet works best for us. 41:48 Dieting is a process of rehabilitation and it will be a continuous learning experience for the rest of your life. 43:04 Decide how much you need and do your best to not take more than that. 46:00 3 Key Points: People use substances such as caffeine from espresso and coffee as a crutch to battle their energy dips that are caused by high-glucose diets. Carbohydrates are not bad, especially if you live an active lifestyle, but just like anything, overconsumption can become poisonous. It’s important to stay flexible with nutrition while you experiment on which diets work best for you. Don’t be afraid to change your stance as you continue to learn. Tweetable Quotes: “When I was on this elimination diet..I was able to see true energy and a lot of stability.” - James Wheeler “When you are doing an elimination diet, it is not necessarily about weight loss all the time. That is a side effect of eating well.” - James Wheeler When you cheat, you cheat yourself. You really do need to stay disciplined on this stuff. If you don’t think you can, it’s likely a mental issue.” - John Parker “It’s a very simple rule, guys. If it’s in the house, either you’re going to eat it or someone else is going to eat it.” - James Wheeler “I don’t get my kicks with food. I’m not a drug addict with food.” - John Parker “We have to remember the gut microbiome changes all the time.” - John Parker Resources Mentioned: James: Facebook Instagram Twitter John: Facebook Instagram Twitter Email: questions@vitalmetabolic.com Jordan Peterson Mikhaila Peterson Ben & Jerry’s Ice Cream Book: The Paleo Solution Redmond Real Salt Whole30
Rachel had tried probiotics from time to time but didn’t see any meaningful result. When her functional medicine doctor wanted to put her on antimicrobials for her IBS C symptoms, not her preference, she decided to give it one last try and took all three categories of probiotics together, as recommended in Healthy Gut Healthy You. She finally improved after years of suffering. While category two probiotics are known for helping IBS D symptoms, that does not mean they don’t help with IBS C. https://drruscio.com/best-probiotic-for-constipation My book Healthy Gut, Healthy You is available at https://drruscio.com/getgutbook/ Looking for more?

Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend! I’m looking forward to sharing with you some of our community’s questions that have come in over the past few weeks… Let’s get started! Simon: *Hi and thanks again Dr Cabral! I am wondering how to best avoid contracting a gut parasite/virus/bacteria whilst travelling. I have a history of IBS-D and parasite infections (multiple blasto infections, giardia) and will have just finished a parasite, intestinal, CBO and finisher protocols before travelling to Bali in June. I am desperate not to reverse all my hard work and healing, and also to stop my family catching something. What are all the things I should take before/during/after my trip to protect my gut and avoid contracting something? I am willing to go the extra mile and would love a detailed protocol. Ayubowan! -Simon Kirsty: Hi Stephen, thank you for everything, you a wealth of knowledge and I continually look to your podcasts for advice! Just a question about recurring UTI's - I've had success with your uTI protocol in the past and manged to avoid antibiotic use. I don't have any digestive issues and no other symptoms. I'm repeating the OATS test to see if any changes from last year. Can UTI's recur though because of biofilm in your bladder? I'm just wondering if so, what's the best way to remove these? Would this show up in the OATs? Much thanks. :) Erin: I know you have had both your tonsils and adenoids out I believe, and while I have managed my phlegm significantly I still end up spitting up small chunky bits of phlegm occasionally. They do happen more often in the morning, and less chronic. I am a Level 2 IHP, and have done all your protocols, and they have helped tremendously especially my gut and skin issues which is why I did your IHP course. I wonder if because I don't have my tonsils or adenoids that this is just how my body is going take care of it. I don't eat the major foods that cause phlegm, especially the common food sensitivity or allergen foods especially dairy, gluten, peanuts, and mindful of the other ones like soy when I need to be flexible for travel or going out with friends. What is your professional opinion on this? Meg: Wondering if there is a specific Podcast educating on natural ways to balance hormones after ovulation. PMDD with major depression, mental illness after ovulation until period. Erin: Hello, love your show and thank you for all that you do! I was wondering if it's safe to take milk thistle and/or liver detoxing herbs and teas daily such as dandelion and burdock to support the liver and detoxification? Thanks! Lori: Is the rain barrel book available by podcast at all? Sue: Hi Dr Cabral I wrote in awhile ago about chronic hip pain and you suggested I see a Chiropractor regarding impingement in the vertebrae in my spine. Podcast 1478. She sent me for x rays, 3 Region spine/pelvis, and she will be able to fix most of it but there is degenerative change in the joints. Osteopenic and spondylitic changes . I am going to do the 21 day functional detox but is there a supplement I can take to heal the bone. Thankyou so much for suggesting I see a Chiropractor. I never would have thought to do that. Her treatments are amazing. Appreciate you. You're incredible with your knowledge Regards Sue Isabel: Wondering if any word yet on Dr Cabral's book,The Rain Barrel Effect being available on audio format. I would love to give it as audible gifts for those friends who never seem to have time to read but they will listen as they multitask..

Hi, I'm Christine McDonald. 4 years ago I was really sick and couldn't lose the 65 lbs I gained from my 3rd son. I was a half marathon runner with arthritis, gout, IBS-D, hereditary high blood pressure, high cholesterol, migraines, anxiety and more. One day, I was running and asked God for the truth about health. He told me to go back to the beginning. The beginning meant the Garden of Eden. That is where the healing is. God's first intentions for us. So I began doing research and began to baby step at changing my diet. I started with 21 days of alkaline eating cutting out the acid foods. Then I reintroduced the acid foods one by one so I could see which ones triggered me. Sure enough meat, eggs and dairy brought back my pains from arthritis, gout and migraines and also brought back anxiety. The wheat products brought back IBS-D. Etc etc. As I continued to baby step, I finally got to doing raw challenges and juice fasts. I have wanted to be fully raw, but I find it easier to sustain on raw till dinner. Then have an alkaline cooked dinner meal. I consider myself still baby stepping and hope to one day be fully raw. But I never beat myself up. I love myself to health. In this episode, you'll learn:

In this episode we delve into what is known as first line dietary advice for IBS - a range of simple dietary changes that can help to manage IBS symptoms. Find out why caffeine is a no no for IBS-D and whether you’re drinking enough fluid! Laura goes on to explain why each tip is recommended and who might benefit (depending on your IBS type). The Gut Loving Podcast is all about irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and the low FODMAP diet! The low FODMAP diet is a relatively new approach to effectively treat IBS symptoms and is scientifically backed by a vast number of medical studies. About this podcast The Gut Loving Podcast is hosted by Laura Tilt (an experienced Dietitian in the UK specialising in IBS and the low FODMAP diet) and Huelya Akyuez, IBS patient and the creator of project sezamee - gut loving food (online video recipes, low FODMAP events and low FODMAP product development) after living with IBS for over 20 years. Together, Laura and Huelya started The Gut Loving Podcast to help others with IBS get clear on the facts - and learn more about how to take control of their condition. Remember: Don’t start the low FODMAP diet without consulting your doctor or low FODMAP specialised dietitian first.
