FOOD INTOLERANCES (SIBO) Interesting Fact: Onions, garlic and apples are high in FODMAPs — and up to 70% of people with IBS react to them, especially when SIBO is present.

These foods rapidly ferment and raise hydrogen gas levels in the small intestine, driving bloating, pain and wind.

Flat in the morning, distended by evening? This is classic small‑intestinal fermentation which often accompanies IBS:

• Visible distention building through the day
• Excessive gas production
• Fermentation causing bloating

Try this for just 3 days:

Build every meal around protein + veg + healthy fats:
• A protein (eggs, fish, chicken)
• Low‑starch vegetables (courgette, peppers, spinach, cucumber)
• A healthy fat (olive oil, avocado, dairy)

Why this helps:

This structure naturally removes grains without feeling restrictive, keeps you full, and reduces the fermentation that drives bloating.

Prefer to add to your diet rather than take out?

Consider my 4‑Week Yoghurt Protocol instead. It's just 2 spoons daily of probiotic-rich clinic-grade yoghurt.

✅If you suffer with IBS, boost your vitamin K intake with cooked kale, broccoli, and pasture-raised egg yolks. Here's why:

Vitamin K supports gut health by reducing inflammation, and helping maintain the integrity of the intestinal lining, which eases bloating and promotes smoother digestion.

It also contributes to regular bowel movements, supports microbial balance, and strengthens the gut barrier, all of which help relieve constipation and improve long-term digestive function.

Top Tip for Chlorinated water and IBS: Consider using a water filter jug to reduce chlorine exposure, support microbial balance, and give your gut a gentle helping hand.

Chlorine, often found in tap water, may contribute to gut dysbiosis by killing beneficial bacteria and irritating the gut lining, making it harder for your microbiome to thrive.

Chlorinated tap water can be a hidden stressor for a sensitive IBS gut.

By reducing beneficial microbes and irritating the mucosa, chlorine exposure may worsen dysbiosis‑driven symptoms such as bloating, gas, diarrhoea and constipation.

IBS makes the gut far more reactive to everyday foods, often because the small intestine becomes imbalanced and overly sensitive.

Introducing beneficial species that produce bacteriocins—natural antimicrobial peptides—helps suppress pathogenic or gas‑producing microbes that tend to overgrow in the small intestine.

As certain strains take up residence, they support greater microbial diversity, preventing faecal species from ascending from the colon into the small intestines.

When certain fundamental strains begin working within your small intestine, here’s what it can set in motion:

• Reduce gas‑producing bacteria linked to intolerance symptoms
• Improve motility to prevent stagnation and fermentation
• Strengthen the gut lining to reduce bloating reactions

Do you feel your gut microbiome may need some tolerating cultures?

BLOATING & EXCESSIVE DISTENSION? Interesting fact:

People with IBS are up to 78% more likely to also have SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth), which is why bloating can feel extreme or wildly disproportionate to the meal eaten.

When bacteria overgrow in the small intestine, even small amounts of food can trigger rapid gas production, pressure, and that dramatic “ballooning” effect.

Up to 70% of people with IBS also have SIBO, often experienced as excessive bloating and visible distension after meals caused by:

• Gas‑producing microbes sitting too high
• Foods fermenting too early
• Heightened gut sensitivity

Try this for just 3 days:

Before you eat anything from a packet, scan the label for these words:

Wheat
Barley
Rye
Oats

If you see them, choose something else.

Why this helps:

Grains, including those hidden in sauces, soups, burgers, and many snacks can make digestion noticeably calmer within 48–72 hours.

Prefer to add to your diet rather than take out?

Consider my 4‑Week Yoghurt Protocol instead. It's just 2 spoons of probiotic-rich clinic-grade yoghurt daily.

✅If you suffer IBS related constipation or diarrhoea, consider adding psyllium husks or powder to your daily routine by stirring it into warm water, blending into smoothies, or mixing well with 'live' yoghurt.

Here's why:

Psyllium is a natural source of soluble fibre that supports gut health by absorbing water, improving motility, and promoting smoother digestion. It helps regulate bowel movements, nourish beneficial bacteria, and reduce inflammation, all of which contribute to relief from constipation and improved digestive function.

Psyllium husks or powder come in supplement form, if you’d like to know what I use personally, please DM me.

Top Tip, consider adding this specific culture by way of yoghurt to your daily routine to nourish your gut and fortify your bones from the inside out.

Here's why 👇

Certain bacteria have been shown to support bone density by naturally boosting oxytocin levels, a hormone that plays a key role in bone regeneration and mineral absorption.

Higher oxytocin levels can stimulate bone-building activity, making these cultures especially valuable for those concerned about bone health.

What’s more, they can be fermented into a thick, creamy yoghurt packed with hundreds of billions of CFUs, amplifying its impact on your skeletal strength!
