Being Told ‘It’s Just IBS’ Is Not a Treatment Plan


Listen Later

If you’ve ever been told “it’s just IBS” and then sent on your way with no real answers..... THIS episode is for you.

IBS is not a treatment plan. It’s a label.

In today’s episode, I’m breaking down:

  • Why so many women are diagnosed with IBS but never given a real plan

  • How the medical system is designed to rule out disease not investigate dysfunction

  • Why low FODMAP and elimination diets often don’t solve the real issue

  • What IBS actually means (and what it doesn’t tell you)

  • How functional testing like the GI-MAP can uncover the true root causes of bloating, constipation, diarrhea, and gut dysfunction

I also share my personal experience of being told I had IBS with ZERO next steps and why that moment completely shifted how I approach gut health today.

If you’re tired of managing symptoms and ready for real answers, this episode will change the way you think about your gut.

As always, episode chapters are below if you’d like to skip to a specific section!
