In this episode of “The Gut Health Dialogues” Podcast, Alyssa explores the relationship between Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) and Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO). If you're dealing with tummy troubles or want to understand more about IBS and SIBO, this episode is for you. Alyssa simplifies complex ideas and offers practical steps to improve your gut health.
Episode Highlights
What's IBS?
Alyssa explains that IBS can cause stomach pain, bloating, and changes in bathroom habits. It impacts daily life and can be frustrating. The diagnosis relies on symptoms and no specific test for it.
Meet SIBO:
SIBO is like a party of bacteria where they shouldn't be—your small intestine. This can cause inflammation, absorption issues, and more problems. Symptoms are similar to IBS, making it tricky to distinguish.
IBS vs. SIBO:
Alyssa breaks down the differences. IBS is based on symptoms, while SIBO can be tested with a breath test. The symptoms often overlap, making it challenging to figure out what's going on.
The Connection:
Alyssa shares her experience, having helped many clients with both IBS and SIBO. Research suggests a strong link between the two, with up to 80% of IBS patients also having SIBO.
Why Does it Happen?
The reasons aren't crystal clear, but Alyssa talks about some theories, like bacteria affecting digestive movement, triggering immune responses, and messing with the gut-brain connection.
Alyssa's Approach:
Alyssa introduces her unique way of handling IBS and SIBO using functional medicine. She talks about the "five R's": Remove, Reinforce, Replete, Re-inoculate, and Repair. It's a holistic approach focused on long-term solutions.
Alyssa wraps up by offering a resource guide with practical tips, food suggestions, and apps to help manage symptoms. It's a starting point for anyone dealing with IBS or SIBO. Check the link below for the resource.

In today's episode of Gut Health Dialogues, Alyssa delves into a crucial topic - how to effectively manage IBS flare-ups that may arise after indulging in holiday meals. With the holiday season often presenting challenges to dietary routines, Alyssa provides insightful tips and strategies to navigate these situations while maintaining gut health.
Episode Highlights
Navigating Good Intentions:
Alyssa acknowledges that despite good intentions and a solid plan to adhere to a specialized or low FODMAP diet during the holidays, unexpected situations may arise. Whether it's a forgotten ingredient or succumbing to a childhood favorite, Alyssa reassures listeners that she's here to support, not shame.
Dealing with the Consequences:
Alyssa discusses the potential consequences of deviating from the dietary plan, emphasizing that stress, a common trigger for IBS symptoms, should be managed effectively. Understanding the two parts of the enteric nervous system – sympathetic and parasympathetic –she encourages listeners to stay calm and shares tips on shifting from fight or flight to rest and digest mode.
Calming Techniques:
Alyssa provides practical advice on calming techniques, including deep breathing exercises, time in nature, and walking. These activities help activate the parasympathetic nervous system, optimizing digestion and reducing stress during holiday meals.
Remedies Toolkit:
Alyssa discusses a toolkit for managing IBS flare-ups, featuring remedies such as enteric-coated peppermint oil, fennel, caraway, anise seed tea, and slippery elm. While not personalized recommendations, these remedies are safe and readily available for mitigating symptoms.
Dietary Adjustments:
Alyssa advises listeners to adjust their diets back to tolerated foods as soon as possible after a flare-up. Utilizing low FODMAP apps, such as Monash University or Spoonful, can aid in making informed dietary choices to calm symptoms.
Heat Therapy:
Exploring the benefits of heat therapy, Alyssa recommends using a hot water bottle or heating pad on the abdomen to increase blood flow, reduce inflammation, and relax gut muscles. Alternatively, sitting in a warm bath provides a soothing effect for the entire body.
Gut-Directed Hypnotherapy:
Alyssa introduces the concept of gut-directed hypnotherapy, a research-based approach developed by Monash University. It aids in creating a positive relationship between the gut and brain, calming IBS symptoms. Listeners can explore apps like Nerva for guided visualizations.
As the episode wraps up, Alyssa reassures listeners that managing IBS flare-ups is possible with the right strategies and mindset. The key is to approach the situation calmly, utilize effective techniques, and make informed choices for better gut health.

Kim experienced debilitating stomach problems that compromised her daily life. Traditional treatments, including medications and dietary changes, provided only temporary relief for her.
Her stomach issues triggered anxiety and fear, especially in situations where access to a bathroom was uncertain. This anxiety created a cycle, worsening the symptoms and impacting Kim's mental well-being.
Despite being an active member of her community, this fear of symptoms restricted her from participating in social and recreational activities. A personal recommendation from Kim’s GI specialist led Kim to Alyssa, a Registered Dietitian and Integrative Nutrition Therapist.
Alyssa conducted extensive testing to understand Kim's gut health, including enzyme levels, microbial balance, and other relevant factors, which helped her identify specific issues contributing to Kim's digestive challenges.
Here’s how Alyssa guided her on a path to recovery:With Alyssa’s support, Kim has now regained the ability to participate in daily activities without the fear of unpredictable digestive issues and has achieved a 90% improvement in overall gut health, restoring joy and freedom in her life.
