Common Root Causes

SIBO

Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth ferments food in the wrong place.

Reactions to gluten, dairy, or other foods trigger inflammation and bloating.

Low Stomach Acid

Inadequate acid leads to poor protein digestion and downstream fermentation.

Enzyme Deficiency

Insufficient digestive enzymes leave food partially undigested.

Natural Approaches

Address SIBO
Use digestive enzymes
Eat mindfully
