SIBO Made SIMPLE with Phoebe Lapine

Today on the podcast we are Simplifying SIBO with Phoebe Lapine! Phoebe is the Author of Sibo Made Simple and The Wellness Project, she is a gut detective, and a recipe developer for those doomed to restrictive elimination diets for health conditions. After an incredibly inspiring wellness journey and experiment (that actually turned into a book!), Phoebe started down a rabbit hole of what it takes to beat SIBO. What is SIBO: small intestinal bacteria overgrowth. An issue of LOCATION bacteria imbalance, not TYPE. Symptoms of SIBO: -IBS cycle of diarrhea, constipation -constant bloating, not just after meals -burping in the middle of meals -food sensitivities -autoimmune diseases -joint pain "You don’t have SIBO for life. The only reason that this would be a chronic condition is if you haven't uncovered what's causing your digestive system to not work as it's supposed to." Three buckets of SIBO root causes: The bacteria aren’t properly killed. Low stomach acid due to hormone imbalance, your immune system, or invasive surgeries. Things don’t get moved through your GI tract properly. (Your MMC- the street sweeper!) Dietary imbalances. Changing your diet is not the same as treatment. Changing your diet for SIBO should be a short term change, not a long term lifestyle change because the same foods that you will read to cut out can be so beneficial to your gut once healed. You will learn: What is meal spacing, and how does snacking interfere with our MMC? The NON food shifts in healthy gut protocols! How your CLOTHING affects your digestion What is Healthy Hedonism and why is enjoying our food and life so essential to our healing?
