You Have A Gutsy Gut
Hey There! It's me, your Gutsy Diarrhea Gut.
I know I sometimes may surprise you, making you run to
the bathroom, and making you spend so much time mapping
out all the bathroom stops on our simple trips across town.
Or forcing you leave a party because I am so embarrassed to use the bathroom there. I just can’t control myself!
Your loved ones don’t fully understand, and I’m sorry for that.
Want to know the good news?
There are ways to improve this, so that you can get back to living life without worry!
Want to know some potential root causes for this diarrhea?
Food intolerances and/or sensitivities - you might be having a multi-day delayed reaction, making it difficult to connect the dots. Further, your gut might need some extra support. Often, we can use targeted supplements to support your gut, while working on other root causes, to give you some quicker relief
SIBO/SIFO or other gut dysbiosis - this means your gut bugs aren’t properly balanced. An overgrowth of hydrogen producing bacteria is known to contribute to diarrhea, for example
Low stomach acid - are you stressed, or on a medication that decreases stomach acid? The stomach is supposed to be acidic, to help break down food properly! Let's fix your acid reflux, and help you get off that medication.
Stress + other lifestyle factors - this can contribute to all of the above. We can give you tips, tools + support to help, and also support for your gut during stressful times of life.
Inadequate bile production - do you have your gallbladder? Do your stools float? This could be a sign. You need fat to be absorbed because it’s important for your cells and brain to function properly, and bile is needed to maintain the health of your intestines, as well as to properly absorb the fat, so that it doesn’t get to our large intestine and contribute to the diarrhea you are having.
Insufficient enzyme production - are you chewing your food well? Are you making enough brush border enzymes or is your gut too inflamed causing issues with this, and thus food intolerances + diarrhea?
Vitamin and mineral deficiencies - for example: adequate zinc and vitamin A are needed to help regenerate the cells that line your gut. Vitamin D helps to protect your good bacteria, and vitamin C is needed to help heal gut inflammation, and is used up more if your gut is inflamed.
And more potential root causes.
Next, want to know some proven approaches to improving a gutsy gut like yours?
Here are a few of many:
Targeted food adjustments - our clinicians have years to decades of experience, and can review your symptoms and medical history to have a good idea of what foods might be the issue (hint: sometimes it can be healthy foods!)
Individualized supplements - we review what you are already on (you might be wasting your money, actually!), + make personalized recommendations as needed (for example, if we suspect you have a nutrient deficiency upon reviewing your symptoms and medical history, we will weigh potential risks to benefits of testing vs. adding a supplement... sometimes, just one supplement can get rid of many symptoms!)
Functional lab testing - if needed, but often, we can help to improve symptoms without ordering more lab testing
Lifestyle Modification - tips for sleep, stress, + managing a busy life are all included!
And if we’re finally, truly, going to get rid of this diarrhea, we will have to dive deeper, learn more, and put in some time and effort.
