Why do healthy foods suddenly cause bloating and pain?
In this episode, I share how one of the most stressful seasons of my life completely changed my gut and forced me to rethink foods I’d eaten for years without issue. I also walk you through how stress disrupted my microbiome, why I used the FODMAP diet as a short-term reset, and how I transitioned back toward a more diverse diet.
What you’ll learn:
(02:43) Why bloating and food reactions can appear even with a “perfect” diet.
(05:27) What FODMAPs actually are and how they affect digestion.
(06:57) Why FODMAP foods are not bad but problematic for a compromised gut.
(07:44) Which foods are lower FODMAP and easier to tolerate during healing.
(09:54) How long to stay on a low FODMAP approach and why it’s temporary.
(11:47) How to reintroduce foods safely while rebuilding gut health.
(13:50) Why stress management is essential for long-term gut healing.
