Do you ever feel like no matter what you do, you can't seem to lose weight?

You may be surprised to learn that the root of your stubborn weight might not simply be the balance of what you're eating vs. your activity level, but rather how your body is reacting to certain foods. There may be foods that you’re eating that are causing your immune system to go haywire leading to inflammation and weight gain.

So you’ve gotten an IBS diagnosis...now what?

Did you leave your doctor’s office feeling like you have more questions than answers? For some, getting a diagnosis might feel like a relief to finally know what’s going on. For others, it might make you feel upset or frustrated that you now have a condition to manage. You might even be feeling both. Ugh.

Friend, this post is for you: the very first steps you should take if you’ve gotten a diagnosis of IBS.

Comment below: What questions do you have about your IBS right now?

Your doctor has given you the news: You officially have an explanation for your digestive health issues. So you think to yourself, “I have IBS, now what?” This blog covers some of the very first steps that you can take to begin to learn about what IBS is and how to best manage your symptoms.

IBS is getting better known and understood, which is a good thing.

The tricky thing is that IBS symptoms overlap with a lot of other conditions, so, unfortunately, you can’t just assume that IBS is the cause of your bloating and bellyaches.

Sometimes people can jump to their own conclusions when armed with Google and some free time (are you back in the bathroom, again?).

Sorry, Charlie, it is not okay to self-diagnose IBS!

IBS is a complicated condition; its diagnosis is not by a single lab test, but rather, by ruling other conditions out.

Want to know the best solution for your digestive symptoms? It begins with an accurate diagnosis.

What is the absolute best gut healing protocol?

The one that works.

Gut health is complicated. So many factors influence how well your gut functions and how you feel on a day-to-day basis.

So when companies or unprofessional people claim to offer a quick fix, it makes me mad. I know that their “solutions” are not going to offer lasting results...or any results at all.

I work with my client to move through the 5R protocol to heal their gut, once and for all. The 5R protocol is deep, therapeutic work that is best accomplished with a savvy functional nutrition guide. If you’ve been frustrated by medication recommendations by your doctor that only manage symptoms, you’re not going to want to miss this post.
