SIBO Made Simple

EP 10 | A Patient's Guide to Ridding Your Life of SIBO Without SIBO Taking Over Your Life with Rebecca Coomes


Listen Later

For the season 1 finale, I wanted to get the perspective of someone who has stood in these SIBO shoes many times and found a silver (intestinal) lining. In today’s episode, Rebecca Coomes is sharing her powerful patient story, from getting through cervical cancer, to managing endometriosis, to finding balance despite a chronic case of SIBO.

Rebecca is a fellow podcaster (go listen to her show, The Healthy Gut!), cookbook author, and coach. She has dealt with more than her fair share of health issues, and has learned a lot in the process about what it takes to tackle chronic illness without it taking over your life. We talk a lot about mindset in this episode, learning to tune into your body, focusing on what matters most, and maintaining a generous spirit when everything feels like it’s being taken away from you.

For those of you who have been asking for a patients’ perspective, more information on endometriosis, and living with chronic SIBO, this episode is for you.

A quick taste of what we’ll cover:
  • Rebecca's health history from C-section baby to today and everything gut-related in between
  • Why lesions caused by endometriosis can lead to SIBO
  • How to prevent surgical adhesions from messing with your organs
  • Diet and lifestyle choices that can help combat the autoimmune component of endo
  • Rebecca's experience with hormonal birth control and and what she wishes she’d known when she was 23 about endometriosis
  • Lifestyle, mindset and stress reduction strategies for the chronic SIBO case
  • The biggest mistakes people make when trying to get rid of SIBO
  • How to find your joy when dealing with chronic illness
  • And so much more...
