Here’s a frustrating but all-too-common scenario: You’ve had an endoscopy, colonoscopy, or even a gallbladder scan. Everything comes back “fine.”

And yet, you’re still bloated, inflamed, and reacting to food. 

Still uncomfortable in your own body.

You’ve got symptoms that last for years, with no one able to figure out the root of them.

In our modern world, one of the most common complaints I hear from 1:1 clients is digestive issues. 

Have you been told everything looks “normal” and sent on your way?

I’m showing you the results of a GI Map I did for a woman who had 20 years of digestive complaints, only to be told everything seemed fine.

She experienced daily bloating after meals, often so severe that she had to wear clothes to hide it.

Alternating constipation and diarrhea.

Feeling reactive and allergic to so many foods, her diet became very restrictive, and she avoided restaurants.

Here’s what the GI Map showed that standard testing missed:

H. pylori can drive acid reflux, stomach pain, and low stomach acid. Without adequate stomach acid, you're unable to break down and digest your food properly. About half of the world's population has this bacteria.

Commensal bacteria are the good bacteria in the gut that help to support the health of the mucosal lining, which is the first line of defense against pathogens and viruses. 

Think of them as the good flowers that grow and flourish in the gut. 

We don't want them to overgrow or die off.  The high levels seen here lead to constipation, inflammation, and maldigestion.

It's the reason this client always feels full and bloated after meals.

Food is hanging around in the stomach for too long.

Opportunistic bacteria are the "bad" bacteria.  When they become overgrown, they can cause inflammation and lead to loose stools, bloating, and other digestive issues.

These can be highly toxic and create a leaky gut, allowing these toxins to enter the bloodstream.

They can also be the root cause of food sensitivities, skin rashes, and autoimmune diseases, and can be linked to Parkinson's.

When we see overgrowth like this, it's a sign of low stomach acid.

Overuse of antibiotics can kill off the good bacteria and allow the bad bacteria to grow.

Having a healthy gut microbiome is the foundation of great health.

If you frequently experience colds, skin rashes, type 2 diabetes, or digestive issues such as bloating, gas, constipation, or diarrhea, you are likely dealing with a microbiome that needs support.

With this client, I used a three-month protocol to help eradicate the bad bacteria and support her ability to digest food.

She's feeling much better, with less bloating and a reduced reaction to food.
