I’ve just come back from the most amazing girls holiday in Thailand with some of my closest friends, and it reminded me of something I feel so strongly about.

SIBO should not stop you from living your life.

It should not stop you from travelling, saying yes to the holiday, eating out with your friends, swimming in the ocean, exploring a new country, or creating beautiful memories.

But I also know that travelling with SIBO can feel really daunting.

You might be wondering…

👉🏼 What will I eat?

👉🏼 Will everything have garlic and onion in it?

👉🏼 What happens if I get food poisoning?

👉🏼 What if I flare while I’m away?

👉🏼 What if I’m stuck in the hotel room while everyone else is out having fun?

👉🏼 What if I undo all the progress I’ve made?

I’ll be sharing the practical travel strategies I use myself, and recommend to my clients, so you can feel more confident travelling with SIBO, IBS or a sensitive gut.

While I’ll be sharing lots of examples from my recent Thailand trip, this webinar will be helpful for travel more broadly, especially if you are heading somewhere warm, tropical, food focused, overseas, or a little outside your normal routine.

We’ll cover:

✅ What to do before you go so you’re not making decisions in panic mode

✅ What to pack in your SIBO travel kit

✅ How to choose accommodation that makes eating easier

✅ How to travel with supplements, medications and safe foods

✅ Food and water safety tips that still let you enjoy your holiday

✅ How to manage garlic, onion, chilli and other common triggers when eating out

✅ How to use Google Translate and food phrases when travelling

✅ What to know about pharmacies, clinics and medical help overseas

✅ What to do if you get diarrhoea, constipation, bloating, pain or nausea while away

✅ How to reset if your gut flares without feeling like your holiday is ruined

✅ And something I think is really important, why many people actually feel better when they travel because their day to day stressors have been removed.

Take me back to for just a day. What a wonderful island escape we had. Aside from the amazing weather, yummy food, beach side pool and villa, it was the owners and staff who made it such an unforgettable holiday. It felt like coming to see good friends and we were truly sad to say goodbye to all of them at the end of our stay.

How good does this Thai fruit look? The colour, taste, diversity and price (aka cheap!) make it all so amazing. Plus fruit has so many health benefits, with mango and red dragon fruit being particularly helpful for improving gut transit time and reducing constipation.

If you can’t get fresh red dragon fruit where you live, did you know you can buy it in powder form and add it to smoothies for a great boost? It’s what I often do for myself and when I’m helping my clients expand their diet and bring some exciting new foods into their weekly routine (all the while feeding their gut microbiota).

What’s your favourite fruit to enjoy when you’re on vacation?

After much planning, thinking and day dreaming, I’m finally off on a girls trip to Thailand! My great friends and are with me and we’re going to be enjoying ALLLL the amazing Thai food, weather, beaches and more that Thailand has on offer.

I’m on the countdown to the girls trip of a lifetime to Thailand! But heading to SE Asia wasn’t always good for my gut. I ALWAYS got terrible tummy bugs and would be left sprinting for the closest toilet.
Want to see how I prepare my gut for travel and what I do once I’m in Thailand to prevent a tummy bug? Let me know below.

If you’ve ever wondered if your gut health impacts your endometriosis symptoms, the answer is ‘it can’!
When our gut health is in a poor state, we are in a pro inflammatory state, which can make all of our symptoms (gut and endo) feel worse.
Naturopath shares what happens and how it impacts us. She also discusses why the carnivore diet can have such a negative impact on your endo symptoms and which diet is better for calming symptoms (and improving gut health at the same time).
Jade shared such valuable information in our discussion on The Healthy Gut Podcast so if you or someone you know has endo, comment PODCAST so I can DM you the link to the full episode.
