I tell you that I can't even drink water in IBS 😢😢😢😢😢😢😮And I think Hell is better than this IBS 😢😢😢
My symptoms: Stomach pain, acid reflux, constantly salivating, gassy (burping and farting), pelvis painful to the touch, diarrhea, nausea. I tried using probiotics and prebiotics. Nothing helped. I fixed my symptoms with a low carb elimination diet. So far I've found I'm sensitive to things like Annatto seed, maltodextrin, sucralose, and more. Mostly its ingredients used in processed foods. I have zero fiber in my current diet. I've tried reintroducing fiber and fermented foods, but it just makes me extremely gassy, have acid reflux, and diarrhea. Finally: I found out my "lactose intolerance" was just an irritated gut. I can now have as much milk as I please without gas. Strange that.
Strict paleo will help you. No processed food!!!
@jennyjune9704 Is this a continuing therapy, or something you can do once and it's done?
I would avoid sugar, wheat, and chemical preservatives used in processed foods (also found in a lot of sauces and dips). Try to limit acid, and if eating fiber irritates you, then introduce one vegetable in smaller quantities at a time, cook them first, steamed, baked, or stir-fried. Limit coffee and other dehydrating substances (like alcohol). Diarrhea is a sign of dehydration believe it or not. Drinking warm water, and flavouring it with herbal teas like chamomile and ginger can help.
Did you eat any fruits
@@mauriciooviedo7424 Fruits, especially those with fiber, make me incredibly painfully gassy.
thank you, Sophie x i’ve watched your last video on gut health and found it so informative & inspiring. love your explanations on the gut microbiome, this is where we need to start the conversation, if touching upon the gut health 🌱
Thanks Sophie,
I have to say how informative this video is. I always look forward to your videos.
Thank you so much for putting this video out. I was down about my restrictions with ibs. You just made me feel better
thank you very much for share something so precious !!! i have been suffering so much with cronic diseases because my gut and my stomach are not ok , and you gave me so much hope !
Thank you, this video is beautiful, I've been racking my brain for over a year now on what I should do to better my gut with all the bloating and constipation. This gave me a lot to go on and I'll be on a journey of my own using much of your tips ;)
Just came across your videos. I have had stomach issues for years and only now diagnosed with Crohns disease after being told many times its just ibs and I had to just live with it. Coming across your videos has been so helpful and also uplifting to know that I can try to heal my gut myself 😊❤🙏
Thank you Sophie, my gut health and hormones i.e period are unbalanced so I want to focus on rebuilding my gut health and helping my hormones. Thank you 🙏.
It’s more than enjoying, it’s valuable education to whom those people are suffering with gut health issues. Thank you very much.
Sophie, wisdom. Philosophy, to love wisdom.
Thank you very much for sharing your time, knowledge, experiences, and kindness.
I agree, we need to inform ourselves! It's up to us to take care of ourselves! Thank you 💞😁
Thankyou so much. Especially the last part, iv been struggling a lot with patience because my leaky gut is realllyyy bothering me. But reading that I should respect my body and it takes time really made me feel like rushing doesn’t do anything. It just makes me stress more which is even worse for the gut.
These things take time 🤍 be patient and gentle with yourself, it will get better xxxxx
Awesome video, thank you!!
Thank you! I took notes and will try to be mindful of using more fermented foods in my diet.
Great video: informative, I can confirm the benefits of what you share!
Thanks for all this information!! xxx
Truly forgive all the people who hurt you in your life, Don't hold on to bitterness. Keep positive people if your life. Be thankful for everything. Laugh more.
By doing these things FIRST then you will be light years ahead in healing.
I am in love with the voice of this girl.
What an informative and well researched discussion. Well done and thank you 👍
Thank you so much! 🥰🥰
Thanks so much for such a great video. I'm not vegan or vegetarian but would really like to improve my gut health a little bit . Any more recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Kudos to you for discussing such personal health so everyone can benefit from it. 😁
Brilliant video, thank you so much!! Exactly the info I was looking for. Also, you are GORGEOUS! 😍
That’s so nice to hear I’m so glad! Thank you hehe🥰❤️
Yes show us what beauty products you use ! I been trying to transition but there so much out there not sure what’s good and what’s worth it.
love the gut health videos ! such a good source of information ❤
happy to help hehe x
Just learned about gut microbiome during Biochemistry summer classes, learning a little extra from you too. Thank you, appreciate you! 🤍🌱
Wow that is amazing to hear! Thank you 🥰
SUGAR is the ENEMY of leaky gut! Thank you for clarifying everything for me because i have begun my lifestyle change but slowly! Life style change is a choice!
this was lovely and very helpful thank youu
Love this! Soo interesting and well explained 🙌
Thank youuuu🥰🤍🤍🤍
Thanks for sharing Sophie x
I would love for you to do a video all about your personal care / home items you swapped for clean / non-toxic. I have had a few fails in some of the items I’ve tried so a recommendation is always preferred 🥰
Yes that’s on my list - I’d love to share some of the things I’ve learned along the way! 🤍🤍
Great video Sophie 🥰 Would defo appreciate a video on healthier skincare tips / a 'chemical-free' skincare routine! ✨
Would love to do that! Thank you 🥰🥰🤍
Too much blah blah blah ... get to the point
Thank you for sharing!
Thanks Sophie for making such an insightful video
Thanks for the great video!!
Glad you liked it! thank you for watching!
Hey sophie!! Thank you so much for this video
best regards and lots of prayers for you😘
Loved the video Sophie! I was wondering what protein powder would you recommend for a healthy gut?
Thankyou for sharing!
Bestguide lines😊 thanks
Great informative video on gut health. You got a subscriber out of me!
I was in gastro-enterology because of my gut issues. And still, they told me that I was perfectly fine, however, I felt bad and still I do feel that way. I am trying to start different food diets and still learning more about my gut. I am trying a vegetarian diet and learning about a lot of the things that I did before that was harsh to my body. And Sophie you are helping a lot, just because you start to talk about these issues. Thank you for it.
Hiii how are you now
My mom is suffering the sameway. I never knew this was a community
Vegetables are great 👍
They have a lot of pre biotics
I have the same problem now
Try the strict carnivore elimination diet for 30 days. Only eat fatty meat, eggs, drink water and include electrolytes to make sure you get enough salt and potassium.
Then after 30 days, reintroduce one food at a time and gauge your reaction.
Each persons constitution is different and this is the only way to tailor your personal diet and identify aggravating foods.
Dont eat anything with wheat in it. Meat is also very easy to digest.
Hi Sophie. I must say your history of digestive problems is very similar to mine, with the exception that mine drastically began at 19 after a parasite infection (which I most likely had for months before being correctly diagnosed). 6 years later, and I'm still suffering with so many stomach and gut problems that hugely affect my daily life: pain, cramps, gas, diarrhea (or vice versa), acid reflux, nausea - the whole IBS package. I've got through so much testing with many different doctors and all the tests come out clear (save for moderate lactose intolerance). I can't say I've taken major steps to heal my gut, not long-term anyway, but your video really inspired me to give it a try. It feels overwhelming, but I'll give this video a bookmark and slowly but surely begin with the lifestyle changes you suggested until I'm following all of the steps. Thank you so much, this is one of the best videos on gut health I've seen. Also, you're so pretty! You must be doing something right x
You described exactly what my son went through. All started with a parasite the took long to be treated. I wanted to ask you if you experienced very dry lips and peels a lot.
@@tbehar2932 Ooh I hope he's all better now. If he did manage to get well, would you not mind sharing what he did and how long it took?
Concerning the dry lips - yup. I mostly struggle w/digestive symptoms, but there are also non-digestive symptoms like dry lips, swollen eyes, increased thirst & peeing (sorry), itchy skin, rashes, acne, fatigue - you name it! I've been tested for IBD several times & nothing came up (thank God), but I still want to change doctors and see if they think there could be an underlying problem other than IBS because IBS meds do not work on me :((
Eve, did you travel somewhere and contracted those parasites? And how did you find them out? What type of testd did the doctors do and how many?
@@believe.receiveyou have histamine intolerance and symptoms.
I'm always looking forward to your new videos! 🥰 Another great one! Thank you for sharing your experiences and knowledge (+ the useful literature!) 😘 Can't wait for the skin care products recommendations too! Keep going 😍
Thank you for your video love your channel 🌻
Thank you so much!! 🥰🥰🙌🏼
Good advice. May I add the suggestion that if you have ibs type symptoms to cut to the chase and get a colonoscopy and gastroscopy for a cast iron diagnosis. Also a note that if you have gut issues unresolved this can make you a candidate for autoimmune diseases down the track. All autoimmune diseases are super scary so better to sort out gut issues earlier rather than kick the can down the road.
Love your Videos! Thank you :) Do you have any Information or Tips about Microbiome healing when you have a histamine intolerance? My doctors don't really help :/
yesssss no processed foods! thank you (:
As a clinical laboratory scientist, I adore when you said “If you’re a freak like me that just loves nerdy, science-y stuff…” 😂 I’ve tested my dogs microbiome several times since learning she has IBD and antibiotic responsive diarrhea! I love your videos.. thank you for sharing!
This is interesting, very informative video. Ive always suspected that the gut biome can have an effect on our brains' functionalities. Covering topics like the skins' ability to absord what is directly applied is extremely interesting to me too. I've also started my fibre journey over the last few years and trying to cut out sugar, it's going so much now. Also trying some different pre/pro & peribiotics which seem to definitely be helping.
Hi, thanks for your informative video. You’re so right about everything especially the toxic cleaning products. I don’t want to hijack this post but I like to share the Vapodil, it’s a very useful dry cleaning system that cleans everything. Thanks again. Kevin
Great job. I have been using this advice to good effect before watching. I offer a small correction that bolsters your main assertion about fiber. Without fiber many, not all, bacteria can eat our mucosal layer which can lead to leaky gut and more just by that alone. Also, I believe some may also try to eat flesh if deprived of the protection of fiber eating bacteria.
Hi Sophie.Thank you for this video❤Is there sugar in your Kombucha?
Love it❤️
I would love yo see a video about safer beauty products !! 💌
Wow, this video is so important. I have been struggeling with gut issues for many years. Would you recommend a vegan lifestyle to fix the problem?
hi! loved the video, thank you so much ! Is there a limit on kombucha? Can you dring 1L a day?
Sophie just seeing your video thanks I send to buy the book..
Yes I Agree Thank You ❤️
So excited for a gut health video! Who doesn’t love gut health!!? 🤩
You and me both girl!!
I do because the healthier your Gut health the healthier your immune system. We want a healthier immune system especially with what's happened in the last few years.
Just started gut healing process. Last week. Bad eczema and skin issues but your. Video reassured I was on right track. I plan on. Sharing my results. Good or bad. Tha ks
Hi Sophie, if you have not read Fiber Fueled by Will Bulsiewicz it’s a great book, highly recommended it. Love your videos!!
Thank you so much ❤ this video was sososoooooo HELPFUL! You have so much knowledge from your personal experience, and I personally want to thank you for sharing your journey and making this video. It gives me hope and most importantly understand that I must have patience and learn more about myself and my microbiome❤❤❤ ❤🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thank you dear sister 🙂 🙂
Hello, great video, so informative and helpful💕 Can I ask for advice on reflux and painful bloating? Should I avoid fiber, raw vegetables or fruits? I've been trying to be vegan for a while now, but I still don't know what's good for my stomach and what is not.
Hi Sophie! New to your channel.Thank you so much for this video, I actually just started learning more about gut health since I recently had experienced discomfort that affected my mood since I felt that I couldn't eat anything because I felt bloated and with lots of abdominal pain but now learning about this I understand many things and how important is to eat fermented food as Kimchi that my body literally asks me for every day and now I understand why.
ChemicaIs - what I mostly clean the house with is regular dishsoap. I buy the cleaner types - also can use white vinegar too.
A interesting and informative video Sophie about Gut health. Gut health is important because it affects your immune system and we want to reduce the risk of chronic illness and it effects the symptoms you will suffer from if you get COVID. Thanks for sharing this video and love 🥰 your video's and love 💕 Sophie.
Thank you so much 🥰🤍🤍🤍
@@sophiehadkins Are you okay because I am missing your video's.
Could you do a hormone video on how to understand womens cycle and hormone disruptors in the environment. Thank you :)
You look so good and healthy
That is a cute tank top/vest you are wearing, the white one, I am your body type and I’d like to buy it too….where can I get it for me? Also, you appear to really love coffee! How do you keep your perfect teeth so white and avoid coffee-stains on your teeth? Is there a product or toothbrush or toothpaste which makes your teeth so white? If so, I want to buy the product to whiten my coffee-stained teeth! Thank you for doing what you are doing for all us IBS sufferers! We suffer horribly, don’t we? Bless you, Sophy!
Are you still planning to talk about intermittent fasting? Still very curious about it 🙂
Best ❤
A tip I recently learned is that if you heat probiotic foods, the temperature will kill the good bacteria! Also non organic foods can contribute to damaging gut biome
Sugar is in blood small level u have that necessary to keep that level for the gut to move it all along versus artificial sweeteners
Question? A lot of the plant based foods like veggies and fruit I get such bad bloat and gas? How did you eat all the veggies and stuff that will not give you gas ? Help?
Thankyou x
Thank you! I’ve just ordered the atlas test. I have endometriosis which is on my bowel too so I do suffer gut issues
I deal with it too, I think it's just ibs, but I stay bloated all the time, everyday, I'm on a date now, and I'm about to pop.
What do you think about salicylates , oxalates, and lectins ? Thank you in advance !
I felt this so hard. I've been dealing with stomach issues for the last 11.5 years with the same run around: been to several doctors/GI's, had all the tests run with normal results, the elimination diet that left me with nothing but some veggies and meat after having be vegetarian for almost 10 years; STILL no answers or relief. I'm gluten and dairy free, can't have anything with spices, most veggies and fruits are off limits...it sucks and I've tried everything I can think of...and before anyone asks, yes I've tried smoking weed and it worked GREAT for all of 2 years and then started making me sicker and gave me seizures...
I actually can relate pretty closely, if not exactly… I currently smoke weed, no seizures. Just nausea. I am limited on fruits because the acidity makes me nauseous, dairy free, and gluten free (majority of the time), limited veggie intake. I have gone to doctor as well. I have a vitamin D deficiency. Not sure what we can do to change this. I’m going to try apple cider vinegar! Kombucha eases my stomach a lot as well.
@@ColdPizzuh sadly weed isn't an option for me anymore which sucks because I used it for nausea and pain relief 💔
@@d011p4rtz right now, I still smoke! I use it for pain! I am currently eliminating all sugar though, to see how my body might react with this! As well as a whole food diet. I hope we get answers one day!!
@@ColdPizzuh me too. I'm more saying that's where we differ sadly 💔😭 take an extra hit for me!!!🙏🏼
Have you tried caprylic acid in morning and milk thistle during lunch? Heard it was a good combo if u have a overgrowth of yeast
you look so healthy, gorgeous!!! :)
where's your top from btw?
Thank you!! Um I have no idea! Maybe H&M I steal so many clothes from my sister haha! 🤍
The food based prebiotics can be high fodmap and cause problems so I’m trying supplementation
What body soap and lotion do you use? How about hair products?
What is the best gut health cook book you recommend for recipes ? Xx
This was honestly extremely helpful, and your tips are put so simple to understand.
I wondered what your thoughts were on eating structure/ routine on gut health as well as exercise and moving your body. Im currently trying to heal my gut and am currently trying to incorporated more variety of fruit and veg each week, having more fermented foods and having a daily probiotic. This said I still feel so bloated and as tho my body is inflamed. I don't know if you could offer any helpful advice or suggestions but anything would be so so appreciated :) xx
You need to take Magnesium, calcium and vitamin D. This will help you having more bowl movements and flush the bad bacteria out.
Thoughts on nutritional yeast? I have a feeling that it might be causing me digestive issues.
Sophie I live in the US and I cannot find some of these products here. Would you know of anything in the US market that's comparable?
Thank you for this information! I have so much questions and now I'm searching answers. I want to eat health and don't feel stomachache and inflammation 😪
I want to try new feeding and add beans and other vegetables, but I'm afraid of lectins and I don't these are health or not for our gut, I'm frightened to try new food, because I don't want to get information and stomachache...
I've always had some gut issues, but after getting COVID they spiraled. I went to many doctors, and everyone told me I'm fine, too young to have any issues and I just have to deal with my IBS. I started a low FODMAP diet, I'm taking probiotics (planning to take prebiotics too), L-Glutamine, and the changes were crazy! I lost all the extra weight, I'm not gassy anymore, and I have way more energy. I'm still hoping to find what actually bothers me, this video was very informative, thank you!!
Side note related to COVID: it affected my period as well, but my doctor keeps telling me they're not related. I also lost so MUCH hair. The stress my body went through to fight the virus ended up affecting my gut.
Covid is absolutely related with many heath problems now it did affect me hormonal and massive inflammation all over causing other health issues specially with my breast I don’t care what doctors have to say they don’t know our bodies we do!!!
Same happened with me
Did you have acid reflux??
@@detraxop6680I found out I have PCOS so idk if it was covid related, it surely stressed my body
Are you well now?? Have all your gut symptoms disappeared??
Hi Sophie, Love your videos!! If you have not read Fiber Fueled by Will Bulsiewicz, you should. It is a great book.
It’s next on my list!!! Thank you 🥰❤️
you should make recipes on foods you eat daily
Did you take any antimicrobial supplements/herbs?
results? Did u make your own yogurt with the atlas test tesults?
Could you please share how you would advise taking the inulin? I purchased some and am taking it before meals, is that right? Thanks!
You can take a powder in smoothies or water!! X
Could you do an intermittent fasting video? X
I can so relate! The doctors diagnosed me with so many things and the last one now is cystic ovarian
You’re so thin there’s not a possibility of anything looking like a bloat! I wish I had your problems, but finally by 75, I have almost the body that I wanted. Blessings
what kombucha do you recommend?
thanks
Great video :) you need to read fibre fueled! By Dr B. He is amazing x
It’s on my list!! I follow him on IG, love the stuff he puts out! 🤍
Did you have IBS-D or IBS-C? I have IBS-D and if I even look at fiber, or most high fodmap, I’m not leaving the house for a few days. 😢 Just wondering if I should try some of this and see if sticking it out would possibly help.
Thanks a lot for the video….Just a question: could you make some video to suggest us what we can eat every day to help the gut, as a vegan? Thank from Italy
Piacere mio! X
