About Ibs

IBS is one of the most common gut diagnoses people bring to DrTalks, often with the feeling that it was a label rather than an answer. Bloating and gas, constipation, belly pain, anxiety that rides along with gut flares, fatigue and brain fog are all things these experts see every day. These talks also go past digestion. IBS is tied to gut bacteria and SIBO, a leaky gut lining, the gut-brain connection, stress, histamine, and even your thyroid. You'll find conversations on the most overlooked causes of IBS, the gut-thyroid connection, how gut microbes shape mood, and eating 30 plants a week for a more diverse gut. Doctors, naturopaths and nutritionists explain what's actually going on, which tests are worth asking your provider about, from stool testing to SIBO breath tests and food sensitivity testing, and what helps, from probiotics, elimination diets and fiber to digestive enzymes, vitamins, breathwork and, when needed, medication.
