I told myself I'd get back on IG after I got SIBO

I told myself I'd get back on IG after I got SIBO Hero off the ground...

💣 Then DSL threatened to sue me bc I made a Youtube video showing MAJOR discrepancies with the GI Map 🤷‍♀️

And ever since there have been a bunch of other crazy/weird stressors hitting me. I won't go into detail, but suffice it to say life has been weird.

I've been pretty exhausted lately, and I think it's at least partially due to stress.

This is a picture of me laying on the yoga mat in my office about an hour before recording a podcast.

I share this to remind you...

A. What you see on social media doesn't tell the whole story. One minute I was wiped out on the floor and the next minute I recorded a podcast episode. Remember that what you see online is usually a very carefully crafted highlight reel.

B. I'm still here, even if I'm quiet 😊 I just prioritize other things above IG and TT.

Generally speaking, my work priorities are:
1. Patient appts and FODMAP Freedom
2. IBS Freedom Podcast
3. Youtube
4. IG and TT

C. It's ok to give your body more rest and to be "less productive" if you're struggling 😘

I'm lookin' at you, Allison Siebecker 😒😒😒

I'm lookin' at you, Allison Siebecker 😒😒😒😒

Antimicrobials are usually FINE if:
1. They are used occasionally/sparingly
2. They are used at a reasonable dose

And 5 tablets of oregano three times per day is hardly "reasonable," Ms. Siebecker 😒

When you get up to such high doses (or if you take these for months and months), you run the very real risk of hurting your microbiome. The same way you'd risk that if you over-used RX stuff.

Don't get me wrong, I think that the natural stuff is *somewhat* safer. And herbs have multiple compounds/constituents that can act synergistically...

But that still doesn't give us the green light to over-use and abuse them.

If you want to let go of your dependency on antimicrobials, FODMAP Freedom is open until Friday at midnight EST 😘 Info is available in my bio.

I'll make a full-length YT video on this soon, but here's a starting point:

Breath test companies give guidelines on how to interpret their test. This means that they tell you what level (amount of gas) is normal or abnormal, as well as a timeframe. For example, they might say that any increase in Hydrogen more than 20ppm is indicative of SIBO if seen before the 90 minute mark.

But here's the thing, my little chilli babies. That cut-off time is a bunch of bologna!

When we assign a cut-off time (ex. 90 minutes) that means we are ASSUMING we know when the substrait is in the small bowel and when it hits the colon.

But we DON'T. We have no friggin' idea! 🤯🤯

This is because oral-cecal transit time (the time it takes to go from the mouth to the first part of the colon) VARIES WIDELY FROM PERSON TO PERSON.

Some people may even have an OCTT of TEN MINUTES!

I highly suspect that many of people who are told they have SIBO, in fact, do not 😯

Don't get caught in this common SIBO trap!

Remember, you need a healthy, strong, resilient, SIBO-proof body if you want to be SIBO-free. So, you need to make sure you are nourishing your body and mind if you want to beat this thing 👍

"You need to get to the root cause!" and "IBS is a worthless label!" have been said by influencers on IG at least 8,000,000 times.

I'm not here to tell you the same old thing for the 8,000,001 time.

But it's worth noting that IBS is not all the same thing.

When your doctor gives you a diet or a treatment "for IBS," it's a real life crap-shoot as to whether or not it will work.

Maybe that diet worked for someone with "IBS" who, in fact, had leaky gut.

Maybe that medication worked for someone with "IBS" who, in fact, had SIBO.

I think this is why the literature is all over the place, too. We CAN'T treat a group of people with "IBS" and expect 100% of them to get better. They're not all the same.

Similarly, I can't post something on the internet and expect it to work for everybody with the same diagnosis/label.

This is the reason I'll never post my "SIBO protocol" online. Or an "IBS protocol or a "candida protocol." Because protocols don't work.

If you're feeling like an outlier, weirdo, or impossible case, or if youve tried "protocols" before- don't give up. You will find clarity some day!

Xoxo,
Dr. D

Adding to my speed dating lineup 😍

I've been doing "speed dating" with my patients and students for years.

I gave up on the idea of using my brain/knowledge to select the "right" prokinetic for each person. I had too many people try a prokinetic, think it did diddly squat, and give up on them as a therapeutic tool.

So, one day, I told a patient "hold on," ran to supplement land, and came back with an armload. I explained that I thought one of these would really, really help them, but I'll be damned if I knew which one. I proceeded to put a one week supply of each product into small zippertop bags. Then, I told my patient to report back on which one(s) they liked.

I've been doing this ever since and it works 👏 like 👏 a 👏 dream 👏

Nearly everybody (98%) finds a prokinetic that helps them.

Most commonly, prokinetics help:
- Decrease bloating
- Decrease that excessively full or "stuck" feeling after meals
- Move BM frequency and consistency toward normal***

*** Interestingly, this seems to have a balancing effect, rather than a speed up or slow down effect. This means that prokinetics are safe and effective for BOTH constipation AND diarrhea!

🥰 I offer prokinetic speed dating to my private clients as well as my students in FODMAP Freedom.

➡️ I am NOT able to send testers to other individuals at this time (I'd be bagging them up from now till doomsday). I do have an option for the masses, though...

If you go to my Youtube channel and search for "prokinetic" you'll find some videos. One of which is where I discuss my data collection and which product comes out on top about 50% of the time.

That video was posted in 2020, and I have new, updated data to share. Keep your eyes peeled in early 2023 for the new line-up in this ongoing competition 🤔😘

This may be my biggest project yet...

I've been pretty stressed lately.

Just as I was closing in on finishing SIBO Hero (something I'm incredibly proud of but was a LOT of work and resulted in many weekendless weeks)...

WHAMMO- something came along and knocked me on my butt. It honestly didn't surprise me, but it was a biggie. Then, another stressor absolutely surprised/blindsided me shortly after that.

I found myself needing to use high-ish dose melatonin to get to sleep every night.

And an existing anxiety issue took a sharp turn for the worse... I've never talked about it publicly before, but here goes nothing.

For a few years now, I've experienced anxiety around checking my email, youtube comments, and, to a lesser degree, messages. This has resulted in cycles of me avoiding these entirely for weeks at a time, guilting/shaming myself, mustering up the courage and dopamine to blaze through all the messages (like ripping off a bandaid), feeling exhausted by the whole ordeal.. and then repeating the cycle.

I worry about hurtful youtube comments. I worry about getting an email from an unhappy/unsatisfied patient/student/client/viewer. I worry about people saying that my prices are too high and I'm greedy or crooked. I worry about longgggggg emails with a million gazillion questions that will take an eternity to answer properly. I worry about a lot of boogeyman that could be waiting for me in my inboxes...

But, what I've realized recently is that the problem isn't just isolated to email. It's a symptom of a greater problem: an inability to deal with stress. Specifically, I think I need to work on people-pleasing and give myself permission to occasionally disappoint others.

I've decided that "antifragile" is my word of the year for 2023. I hope you enjoy my attempt at this K-pop dance to commemorate this year's word!

Exercise is OBVIOUSLY good for you, but did you know it's been shown to:
- Increase gut microbiota diversity
- Stimulate bile flow
- Stimulate/regulate motility
- Activate your brain, which, in turn, lights up and activates your vagus nerve
- Improve mood and focus
- Improve sleep

And honestly, SO much more, but I don't have the space to summarize a whole exercise sci degree here on Insta 🤣

On a totally different note... I debated whether or not to post this video 😱

I debated putting on a tank-top for this, even though I always work out in a sports bra and shorts (when I'm at home in the basement, at least).

But honestly,
1. We all need to see REAL LOOKING HUMANS in our newsfeed
2. If you unfollow me because of some tummy jiggle that's more on you than it is on me 😉🤭
