Send us a text
In this episode I discuss:
- (0:45 sec) the concept that IBS and IBD are on the same spectrum of disease
- (4:28) IBS and IBD as distinct conditions and also what they have in common
- (6:25) definition of inflammation
- (9:13) the relationship between inflammation and a dysregulated immune system
- (10:55) how immune dysregulation plays out in IBS and IBD
- (12:15) why conventional medicine approaches aren’t helpful at identifying root causes of IBS and IBD
- (13:25) the common characteristics of idiopathic conditions like IBS, fibromyalgia, and chronic fatigue and how these compare to autoimmune conditions like M.S. and IBD
- (15:25) functional medicine views the body as breaking down as one system versus as just one part
