EP 12 | Ask a Doctor: All Your Season 1 ...

Phoebe Lapine
About this episode

We’ve covered a lot of ground on this season of SIBO Made Simple, and along the way we’ve received some amazing listener questions. In today’s episode, past practitioners come back to answer them all. Dr. Allison Siebecker tackles some of the nuances of SIBO treatment, Dr. Jason Wysocki chimes in on structural and thyroid-related queries, Dr. Will Cole talks about experimental treatments like FMT, and Kate Scarlata clears up some diet confusion.

If you don’t hear your question, don’t stress—there’s a big possibility I’ll be getting to it with a dedicated episode in season 2. Make sure to listen to the end of this week’s podcast for a sneak peak of the topics we’ll be covering later this spring when SIBO Made Simple comes back from hiatus! And finally, don’t miss my recap of the SIBO Symposium in Portland, and a special announcement about a FREE program I'm offering April 1st: The Spring Gut Reset.

A quick taste of what we’ll cover:
  • What health trends are not good for you if you have SIBO, from CBD to adaptogens
  • Do you take the herbs on an empty stomach or with meals?
  • How drinking alcohol factors into SIBO diets
  • What preventative herbs to take if you get food poisoning
  • Whether having your ileocecal valve removed effects treatment
  • The correlation between SIBO and other hidden infections like mold, candida, and heavy metals?
  • How to go about a low histamine diet in conjunction with low FODMAP without going insane
  • If you’re prone to food poisoning, should you eat like a pregnant person?
  • Hashimoto’s and SIBO – where do you start your treatment plan?
  • Is SIBO real? What do you say to the haters
  • And so much more...
Resources, mentions and notes:

This episode is brought to you by The Spring Gut Reset. On April 1st, I'm offering a FREE online program to give your digestive system the spring break it deserves.
