Why Your Gut is the Gateway to Wellness
Your gut isn’t just where digestion happens — it’s home to trillions of bacteria, yeast, and other microbes that form your gut microbiome. This community helps you break down food, absorb nutrients, regulate your immune system, and even influence your mood and brain health.
When your gut is out of balance — a condition called dysbiosis — it can lead to digestive discomfort, fatigue, skin issues, mood changes, and long-term chronic illness.
Common Digestive Concerns We Address
We take a root-cause approach to gut health and help patients with:
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) – bloating, diarrhea, constipation, or a mix of both.
Functional Dyspepsia – chronic discomfort, fullness, or burning after eating.
Leaky Gut (Intestinal Permeability) – associated with food sensitivities, inflammation, and autoimmune issues.
Fructose Malabsorption & Food Intolerances – causing bloating, cramps, and irregular stools.
SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth) – gas, bloating, and nutrient deficiencies.
Chronic Heartburn & Acid Reflux – often linked to diet, lifestyle, and microbial imbalance.
Our Functional Health Approach to Gut Repair
We go beyond symptom management and create a personalized plan that may include:
Functional Testing
Comprehensive stool analysis to evaluate bacteria, yeast, parasites, and digestive function.
Food sensitivity or intolerance testing.
SIBO breath testing.
Targeted Nutrition
Anti-inflammatory, whole-foods eating plan.
Low-FODMAP protocol for IBS relief (short-term and professionally guided).
Reintroduction strategies to identify trigger foods.
Gut-Healing Protocols – Often following the “4R” Method:
Remove irritants (processed foods, allergens, pathogens)
Replace digestive support (enzymes, stomach acid if low)
Reinoculate with probiotics and prebiotics
Repair gut lining with nutrients like L-glutamine, zinc, and collagen
Lifestyle Integration
Stress reduction and nervous system regulation (yoga, breathwork, mindfulness)
Restorative sleep routines
Gentle, consistent movement to support motility
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do I know if my gut is “unhealthy”?
A: Common signs include frequent bloating, gas, constipation, diarrhea, heartburn, food sensitivities, skin rashes, fatigue, and brain fog.
Q: How long does it take to heal gut issues?
A: This depends on the cause. Mild imbalances may improve in weeks, while chronic issues like IBS or SIBO often require 3–6 months of consistent care.
Q: Do I need supplements?
A: Not always, but targeted probiotics, digestive enzymes, or gut-healing nutrients can speed recovery when used appropriately. We recommend these only after assessing your unique needs.
Q: Will I have to give up all my favorite foods?
A: Not forever. Our goal is to identify and remove temporary triggers, then help you reintroduce as many foods as possible without symptoms.
