Episode Details

Everyone always wants to know what caused their Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), but often you can't know for sure. This episode aims to provide clarity amidst the confusion.

• IBS - A biopsychosocial condition influenced by biological, psychological, and social factors.
• Post-infectious IBS emerges as a common trigger, often following a bout of gastroenteritis or food poisoning, disrupting intestinal barriers and triggering chronic inflammation.
• Motility issues play a significant role, with slow movement leading to bacterial overgrowth and constipation, while fast motility causes diarrhoea.
• Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO) is highlighted as a treatable cause, affecting a substantial portion of IBS sufferers.
• Additionally, improper digestion of certain foods, especially fermentable fibres, and the intricate gut-brain connection are explored as key contributors.
• The gut-brain connection and how this can impact your digestion
