Mike Sweeney openly admits that he used to drink heavily, was obese for years, and struggled with mental health issues and IBS. These days, he's a superfit dietitian with the NHS who dedicates himself to showing people how to reverse IBS, type II diabetes, and many other chronic health conditions.

Helping patients achieve amazing outcomes through nutritional and lifestyle modifications is what drives Mike - and he's had plenty of success doing so.

Mike is like a walking, talking encyclopedia on nutrition. And what makes Mike’s advice much more impactful is the fact that he experienced IBS himself…aswell as the alcoholism, being overweight, and dealing with depression and anxiety. 

All of these past personal struggles make his work more genuine and relatable. 

Tune in to hear Mike's insights on nutrition and what's wrong with the current approach in healthcare. Plus, we engage in a thought-provoking conversation on ultra-processed foods and their impacts on our health, with practical dietary advice you wouldn't want to miss.

IN THIS WEEK'S EPISODE, YOU'LL DISCOVER: 

* What were the three key factors in Mike overcoming IBS, obesity, alcoholism, depression and anxiety.

* Why Mike doesn’t follow the Low FODMAP diet and, while he’s trained in it, he hasn’t once had to share it with patients.

* A simple tweak he recommends people with IBS make to their diet to get symptoms under control.

* A cheap solution for chronic constipation you can buy in most supermarkets…that’s all natural and has worked with lots of Mike’s patients.

* And so much more!
