In this episode of Longevity by Design, host Dr. Gil Blander sits down with Dr. Emeran Mayer, Executive Director at the UCLA Center for Neurobiology of Stress and Resilience and founder of Mayer Interconnected. They explore the science behind the gut-brain connection and its role in shaping health and longevity.Emeran explains how signals flow between the brain, gut, and microbiome, influencing everything from digestion to emotions. He breaks down how modern diets, especially ultra-processed foods, disrupt the natural balance between humans and gut microbes—a relationship refined over thousands of years. The conversation highlights why early life exposure to antibiotics can have lasting effects on microbiome resilience, and how lifestyle choices like diet and exercise remain powerful tools for supporting gut-brain health at any age.The discussion closes with a look toward the future of gut-brain science, including engineered probiotics and the promise of more targeted therapies. Emeran shares practical habits for better gut-brain health and cautions against quick-fix “biohacking,” encouraging a return to whole foods, movement, and mindful living.Guest-at-a-Glance

Many people who swear they’re “gluten sensitive” — avoiding bread, pasta, and wheat products — may be misplacing the blame. A recent comprehensive review suggests that what most call gluten sensitivity isn’t actually triggered by gluten. Contrary to popular belief, people in carefully controlled studies reacted the same way to gluten, wheat or placebo — meaning their symptoms often had nothing to do with gluten itself. Instead, experts believe that issues stem from other wheat components or fermentable carbohydrates (FODMAPs), or even the power of expectation — the infamous “gut-brain connection.” In short: for many people, “going gluten-free” may be a needless dietary crusade. What feels like sensitivity could be a byproduct of gut-brain interactions — more akin to Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) than a gluten-triggered disorder. If you’ve cut gluten from your diet and still struggle — or feel fine but restrict wheat anyway — this episode might make you rethink the gluten-free hype. It's Cyber Monday!

In this Nutrition Science Bites episode Prof Clare Collins discuss non-coeliac gluten sensitivity with A/Prof Jessica Biesiekierski. They talk about gluten, what it is and where it's found, differences between gluten sensitivity and coeliac disease, and how a sensitivity is diagnosed. The conversation explores the gut-brain connection, highlighting how stress can affect your gut and alter perceptions of normal digestive processes. They talk about a group of complex carbohydrates called FODMAPs, or fermentable oligo-, di-, mono-saccharide and polyols that can cause gut disruption and digestive health problems for some people with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) or even Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD). They discuss nutritional implications of going gluten free, or not and what people can do to try and improve their nutrition related health and wellbeing. They encourage people experiencing health anxiety to discuss it with their doctor and mention the online programs addressing it from THis Way Up. Lastly, they mention the research A/Prof Jess is doing, including an online study open to eligible people living anywhere in Australia or the USA with IBD .

In this episode of Homeopathy 247, host Mary Greensmith welcomes Ekta Kaur Ross to explore the complex world of Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) and how homoeopathy can offer real, lasting relief. Ekta begins by sharing her own journey with IBS in her early twenties — a time filled with discomfort, endless medical tests, and no clear answers. Despite endoscopies, colonoscopies, and dietary changes, she was told she would have to "live with it for life." From Frustration to Healing Feeling disheartened, Ekta turned to homoeopathy. Unlike conventional medicine, which focuses on suppressing symptoms, homoeopathy looks at the whole person — physical, emotional, and mental. She explains how her IBS symptoms improved once she addressed not only her diet but also her emotional stress and internal pressure. Homoeopathy helped her identify that the root cause of her digestive issues wasn't just what she ate, but how she felt — particularly stress, anxiety, and self-expectation. Once her emotional wellbeing improved, her gut followed suit. Mind–Gut Connection Ekta and Mary discuss how deeply emotions are linked to digestion. Stress, guilt, or anxiety can easily manifest as bloating, cramps, or irregular bowels. Ekta encourages listeners who self-prescribe to explore anxiety-related remedies first, as calming the mind often eases the gut. The Homeopathic Approach to IBS Homoeopathy works by stimulating the body's natural ability to heal. Ekta describes a two-step process: Acute relief – using remedies for immediate symptoms such as diarrhoea, constipation, or bloating. Constitutional treatment – working with a homeopath to address underlying emotional and physical imbalances for long-term wellness. Common Remedies for IBS Ekta shares some of her go-to remedies: Nux Vomica – for irritability, indigestion, and alternating constipation and diarrhoea. Aloe Socotrina – for sudden urgency and weakness after bowel movements. Bryonia – for dryness, sluggish bowels, and irritability. Lycopodium – for bloating and digestive gas. Each case is unique, she reminds us, so working with a professional homeopath ensures a tailored plan for lasting results. Building Resilience through Constitutional Care Ekta highlights that IBS often stems from emotional patterns formed early in life — such as pressure to perform or repressed frustration. Constitutional prescribing looks at the whole story, helping clients release emotional tension and restore physical balance. Homoeopathy doesn't change who you are, she says — it simply "softens the sharp edges" so you can feel calm, resilient, and in control.

This book will change your life, as an IBS patient. A Unique, Pivotal and “out of the box” Book about Irritable Bowel Syndrome. The author of this book is Dr. Mohammad Farivar, an exceptional gastroenterologist with extensive expertise in the management of inflammatory bowel disease. He has served as a Professor at Harvard Medical School, Boston University, and Tufts University. Millions of people in the United States are suffering from IBS like symptoms. They are being diagnosed and treated as IBS. The purpose of this book is to help these patients figure out what is causing their symptoms and take care of it. For the majority of them diet is the culprit and by recognizing and avoiding it one can put an end to future suffering. In this book, more than 40 reasons are blamed and several real life examples illustrate how difficult it may be to find the cause if you are not knowledgeable about the pathophysiology of GI tract and digestion and absorption of food.

Let's be real, as humans, we all get the occasional upset tummy (and this is perfectly normal). Our digestive system is a complex arena of microbiota, digestion, absorption, and processing. However, some people have more sensitive guts and this can lead to symptoms that impact quality of life and simply annoy the crap out of you (literally and figuratively here).One such condition that I have increasingly been seeing over the last few years, is IBS (Or Irritable Bowel Syndrome). I have worked with and helped many clients navigate this arena and regain “gut stability” and get rid of “funny tummy”.So what should one look out for?

In this episode of Hope Natural Health, Dr. Erin chats w/guest Atavia Minoudis about IBS and medical gaslighting.  Atavia Minoudis is a fully registered Nutritional Therapist specializing in IBS, bringing a valuable background in Psychology and Counselling to her practice. Her journey into nutritional therapy was deeply personal: in her twenties, she faced significant health challenges, becoming dangerously underweight and barely leaving her bedroom. Despite her love for food, her gut battled IBS, and when she sought help, she was often told "there's nothing wrong with you" and simply advised to eat more. Determined to understand her own gut health, Atavia spent the next three years exhaustively studying Nutritional Therapy while working full-time. Now, having uncovered the truth about irritable bowel syndrome, she is on a passionate mission to share this knowledge with women everywhere, empowering them to overcome IBS and its debilitating symptoms, and ultimately master their gut health.

Bloating is incredibly common - and while some of it is completely normal, for many people, it can start to feel unpredictable, persistent and disruptive to daily life. It may even worsen during the second half of the menstrual cycle (aka the luteal phase), when rising and falling levels of progesterone and estrogen slow digestion and increase gut sensitivity. In this episode, we're talking about the many causes of bloating (spoiler: it's more than just food), why it tends to fluctuate across different phases of your cycle, and what to do when it starts getting in the way of how you feel, function, or move through your day.You'll leave this episode with a better understanding of your body and practical ways to start identifying patterns and reducing discomfort, without over-restricting or falling into food fear.If you enjoyed this episode, we'd love to hear it; leave a rating and review!Episode links:Free Hormone + Gut Health Toolkit1-on-1 Nutrition Coaching ProgramsReferencesIovino P, Bucci C, Tremolaterra F, Santonicola A, Chiarioni G.

Send a text to Melissa and she'll answer it on the next episode. The gut is far more than just a food processor—it's intimately connected to our emotional well-being, nervous system function, and overall health. In this revealing conversation, Melissa and Bri unpack the complex relationship between our minds and digestive systems, offering insights that conventional medicine often overlooks.The hosts dive deep into the world of Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) and leaky gut syndrome. What makes this episode particularly valuable is the exploration of how our nervous system directly influences digestive function.  The hosts explain how oversensitive nerve endings in the digestive tract can transform normal digestive processes into painful experiences, and why childhood emotional trauma often manifests as adult gut problems.

If you've been managing IBS by avoiding certain foods but still experiencing unpredictable flare-ups, you're not alone. Emerging science shows that IBS is a complex condition involving multiple body systems: your nervous system, immune response, and gut microbiome all influence how and when symptoms appear.For something so physical, IBS is rarely just about the gut.I created this IBS Masterclass podcast episode to help you finally understand what's really driving your symptoms. And it's not just about food. Stress, sleep, movement, and even your gut-brain connection can all play a role in making IBS worse.Irritable Bowel Syndrome, or IBS, affects nearly 1 in 10 people worldwide, yet it's still so often dismissed as "just a sensitive gut." The reality? IBS sits in that quiet, complicated space between physical and emotional. And we don't need more elimination diets or shame. We need understanding, compassion, and space to heal.To give you the clearest answers, I've brought together the world's leading gut health experts:Dr. Will Bulsiewicz – gastroenterologist and NYT bestselling author of Fiber Fueled, helping us understand the role of fiber, fermentation, and plant diversity in long-term digestive healthDr. James Kinross – colorectal surgeon and author of Dark Matter, exploring how gut bacteria influence inflammation, immunity, and disease riskDr. Emeran Mayer – gastroenterologist & neuroscientist, author of The Mind-Gut-Immune Connection, bringing over four decades of research into how emotions, microbes, and immunity shape the IBS experienceProfessor Felice Jacka – Director of the Food & Mood Centre at Deakin University, pioneer in nutritional psychiatry, uncovering how food and mental health are deeply connected through the gutWe explore: • How stress and trauma shape gut-brain signalling • Why the vagus nerve is a key player in digestion• The misunderstood link between emotional health and IBS • Whether FODMAP diets help or simply mask deeper issues • And how to create a sense of calm in your body that supports long-term healingThis isn't just a masterclass. It's a myth-busting, life-affirming conversation that every person with IBS deserves to hear. You'll discover why your body reacts the way it does and learn how to listen with more compassion. Because sometimes, what looks like bloating or discomfort is your nervous system saying, "I don't feel safe."If IBS has made you feel frustrated, alone, or disconnected from your own body, I hope this episode brings you clarity and relief. You deserve to feel at home in your body again.Love,Sarah Ann

In this episode I explain how your vagus nerve—an extensive neural pathway linking your brain and body in both directions—powerfully regulates your mood, digestion, alertness and even certain food cravings, and I explain how you can activate certain vagus nerve pathways to improve your heart rate variability (HRV), a key marker of health and longevity. I also explain how to control vagal pathways to enhance your focus and alertness to improve learning and neuroplasticity. And I explain how your vagus nerve controls levels of serotonin in both your gut and brain, impacting your mood and emotional resilience and how to keep that pathway robust.

In this eye-opening episode we are talking about the gut issues nobody wants to talk about—IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) and IBD (Inflammatory Bowel Disease). For millions of women, chronic bloating, pain, and unpredictable digestion have become their “normal”—but it doesn't have to be that way. I'm joined by Dietitian Ashley Hurst, founder of Crohn's & Colitis Dietitians, a gut health expert who is on a mission to bring awareness to the root causes of chronic gut inflammation, including stress, food sensitivities, trauma, and even immune dysfunction. Together, we unpack why these conditions are often misunderstood or dismissed—and what real healing can look like. These issues are so commonly paired with a thyroid condition. If you've ever been told “everything looks normal” but your body says otherwise, this episode is for you.

In this empowering and eye-opening episode, I sit down with the incredible Dr. Nikki DiNezza—a true expert in the world of gut health. Whether you're a runner, a health-conscious human, or someone who's just trying to feel better in your own skin, this conversation will resonate with you.Dr. Nikki shares her fascinating journey into gut health and explains how our digestive system is so much more than what we often think. We talk about why runners, in particular, need to prioritize their gut—especially if you've ever struggled with GI distress on a long run (yep, we've all been there!).Together, we explore the vital role of fiber, why stress management is essential for your gut and nervous system, and the truth about probiotics and prebiotics. Dr. Nikki also gets real about common pitfalls—like jumping too quickly into elimination diets or getting overwhelmed by functional medicine rabbit holes.What I love about this conversation is how practical and holistic it is. We talk about mindful eating, training your gut (just like you train your body!), and tuning in to what your body needs—without falling into restriction or fear.

Do you struggle with chronic health problems like depression, allergies, or skin issues that just won't go away no matter what you try? According to Dr. Alejandro Junger, a renowned cardiologist and functional medicine practitioner, the root cause of these persistent ailments might be right under your nose - in your gut. In this Habits and Hustle podcast episode, I am joined by Dr. Junger as he shares his personal journey from struggling with debilitating depression and allergies to discovering the power of gut healing. He explains that a staggering 99% of chronic diseases are either directly caused by or related to gut health issues. We discuss the science behind how a "leaky gut" can wreak havoc on your entire system, leading to a host of seemingly unrelated symptoms. We also dive into practical tips on how to repair your gut through his innovative Clean Program, which has helped countless people around the world reclaim their health and vitality. Dr. Alejandro Junger is a Cardiologist and New York Times best-selling author. After graduating from Medical School in Uruguay, he moved to New York City to begin postgraduate training in Internal Medicine at NYU and Lenox Hill Hospital. The significant shift in diet and lifestyle soon manifested as symptoms of Irritable Bowel Syndrome, allergies, and depression. Becoming a patient within the healthcare system incentivized to treat symptoms vs root cause emerged as a startling experience that catalyzed his quest for an alternative solution.  What We Discuss: (01:00) The King of Gut Health (04:15) The Impact of Modern Lifestyle (18:40) Path to Enlightenment Through Spiritual Journey (28:05) Awakening Through Spiritual Experience (33:10) Holistic Approach to Health and Healing (41:29) Functional Medicine Systems and Integrity (55:56) Healing Chronic Illness Through Gut Repair (01:08:46) Healing Gut Repair Program Implementation (01:19:32) Healing Gut Repair Program Discussion (01:30:09) Healing SIBO With Family Constellations (01:37:02) Seeking Healing Beyond Traditional Methods (01:42:14) Clean Program …and more!
