On today’s podcast, we're diving into a recap of last week’s discussion and exploring the three types of SIBO and IBS, along with practical strategies to address them. We’ll also cover symptoms of leaky gut and discuss what dysbiosis means and how it relates to gut health. So, let’s get started!
First, we’ll review the three types of gut dysbiosis we discussed last week: low diversity dysbiosis, digestive insufficiency dysbiosis, and inflammatory dysbiosis. All three are precursors to leaky gut, an issue we’ll explore in greater detail today. Remember, last week’s episode is available under the “Radio” tab as a podcast, and also as a blog post.
Dysbiosis refers to an imbalance in the gut microbiome, which can compromise the intestinal barrier, allowing bacteria and toxins to enter the bloodstream. We’ll also hear from Dr. Mark Hyman on this topic, a conventional doctor turned functional nutrition advocate, who emphasizes the impact of nutrition on health beyond traditional medicine.
