3+ y ago1:01:42

1:01:42

Before I started my SIBO treatment way back in 2017, I did what I do best: contact every person I knew who had ever had SIBO and force them to endure a game of 101 questions, gut edition. These conversation were SO helpful though, perhaps even more helpful than the internet research rabbit hole I eventually fell down. The majority of questions I ge…

1:14:59

Lyme is known in medical circles as the great imitator, meaning it can affect many different areas of the body and present as countless other conditions.

The vast majority of women (and many men) have gone through periods of disordered eating, whether that means crash dieting, emotional binging, calorie counting, over-exercising or a full-blown eating disorder like anorexia or bulimia.

4y ago53:43

53:43

People in general--and certainly people who listen to this podcast--have come to understand that we are completely colonized by bacteria. We have a grasp on where it lives, how it helps us. But viruses are much more abstract. Covid-19 has laid bare how little we still know about our interactions with viruses, what role our gut plays in the process,…

4y ago1:01:25

1:01:25

We talk a lot about intestines on this podcast, duh. But today’s episode is all about the stomach. We’ve been taught over the years through plenty of TV ads for pep-themed pills that stomach acid is something that needs to be constantly beaten back in order to avoid reflux. In today’s conversation, we investigate the other side of the coin: why a d…

4+ y ago1:12:41

1:12:41

Intestinal worms, like some types of bacteria, have gotten a bad rap in our hyper-sanitized modern life. But over the last fifty years, scientists have begun to question whether or not the vast eradication of these ancient friends has caused more long-term harm than good. In today’s episode, we talk about the hygiene hypothesis and how some people …

1:23:22

Environmental toxins are the giant purple elephant in the room.

EP 27 | Bad Bacteria: Food Poisoning, Parasites & Other Pathogens that Cause SIBO with Dr. Ilana Gurevich 50:57

5y ago50:57

50:57

We often talk about how SIBO is an issue of location, not type. Meaning, our main worry isn’t whether our bacteria is “good or bad,” per se. Just that it’s in the wrong place, too far up our digestive tract. But in the last five years we’ve come to better understand how pathogenic bacteria is often the first player in a chain of events that eventua…
