Constipation is one of the most oversimplified digestive symptoms online. But what happens when you’re already doing all of the things - eating more fiber, drinking more water, taking magnesium citrate and probiotic supplements - and you still feel bloated, backed up, uncomfortable, reactive to foods, and worse the harder you try to “eat healthy”?

In this episode, Alyssa unpacks why IBS-C is often much more complex than a simple fiber deficiency, and why certain healthy foods can actually backfire in sensitive digestive systems. 

You will learn:

• Why constipation and bloating are so closely connected
• How slowed motility and microbial fermentation create a vicious cycle
• Why methane gas can actively slow digestion down
• The gut-brain connection and the nervous system’s role in IBS-C
• Signs your constipation may actually be methane SIBO / IMO
• Gentle strategies to support motility without overwhelming the gut
