An Honest & Overdue Health Update - SIBO, IBS & living with symptoms

[@rebeccacalver4610]

I'd love to see you do a 'what I eat in a day/week' would be great for inspiration for people with IBS

[@jenlambie14]

Amelia, you're such a sweetie for sharing your health journey. It seems only now that medicos are discovering what a huge impact gut health has on so much of our day to day lives. Best wishes ♥️

[@amelialiana]

yes it's true! lots of love xx

[@natalief1680]

I have IBS also and it’s nice to hear someone else talk about it and “normalize” it in a way ❤️

[@EquestrianPrep]

I had never heard of SIBO until a couple weeks ago. I watch Sarah’s Day on KZbin and her boyfriend, Kurt, was just diagnosed. Thank you for sharing your story! You’re so strong ❤️

[@siro4239]

Just wanted to mention, seeing your social media, you look so happy and radiant the past 8 months or so :) it is inspirational for me to look for this glow of content, self nurturing and positive energy.

[@blakeyrebeccaross]

Amelia, something that helps my husband is massaging his digestive track after eating. Good luck, glad you're making progress!

[@VictoriaMagrath]

Fantastic video babe and I learned so much so thankyou! X

[@janscattergood7294]

Thank you for being so open. I struggle with IBS too and it's been good to hear other tips. Stay safe & well. x

[@meggiemoogles5050]

Love you Amelia, I get bloating too due to IBS and intermittent diarrhoea. It’s truly awful when it flares up. Thank you for your honesty. Xxx

[@katherinepinnell1218]

thank you so much for talking about bloating and body confidence!!! it’s something i struggle with everyday, so seeing/hearing someone be honest about it really does help. Love you! Xx 💖

[@amelialiana]

So glad it helped thanks Katherine!!

[@lindseyolson4]

I was wondering when you would do an update on this but thank you so much for sharing! I’ve had similar issues and only decided to see a specialist once I saw your previous video on this. I’ve come a long way since then and I finally have something to work with. Thank you so much for sharing, I hope this inspires other people to continue looking into these issues and start healing ❤️

[@natalieloder6949]

So interesting never heard of SIBO , I have IBS and intolerance to some foods. Always bloated and always need a wee🙈 too much information. Thankyou for sharing and I’m going research for myself xx

[@amelialiana]

Haha never too much info!!

[@giannag8897]

Me too

You are so strong, Amelia. Sending you many many hugs. 💛💛💛

[@georgelopez9517]

I can’t stress enough seeing a functional medicine doctor!! Most western doctors don’t know how to treat this things. I have talked to many people who had all these issues, and by seeing a functional medicine doctor they were able to reverse all or at least most of their major health issues!!

[@Amelia-vn5yb]

Thanks for your update. I’m currently on an elemental diet for methane dominant SIBO, so I definitely feel your pain. It can be overwhelming and daunting to battle SIBO, but you’re doing a fantastic job dealing w/ everything. I totally agree w/ you that a big piece of the SIBO puzzle for a lot of people is stress. At first, I found it hard to adapt to my new normal, but I think a positive mindset has helped me shift out of feeling like I was doomed for life. I hope you’re coping well, feeling better, and being kind to yourself. 💜

[@kj7168]

Hello... May I ask, did the elemental diet help you?

[@heltc9594]

I have IBS and a "lazy" stomach (paresis - a light case) and sometimes digestion is a real struggle. While I was obsessing over it, it was getting worse. Now, I just know what -most of the time- my stomach and gut want and I do the best I can. Diets haven't really changed much, I avoid some foods, but my flare ups are sometimes out of the blue. So, I live with it, I try not to care too much and I am happy it is not something worse. Lots of love ❤️

[@Nubianette]

I’m glad you found your balance! I’d heard about that clinic in Austria, right? I hope you’ll be able to go back soon. I had my IBS under control, and then I hit my late 40’s, and everything went out of control. The doctors were not any more helpful than they were when I was 19. So, on my own I figured out it was the change of my hormones, and this was a big stress to my system, and flared my IBS and food allergies. I started gaining weight, but I was actually eating less due to problems with digestion. I started taking enzymes which helped a lot. I had already been taking acidophilus. More research...so intermittent fasting totally works for me. I’m less sensitive to spicy food. I give my body 16 hours of no food which allows full digestion and a boost to immunity, due to that time of not eating. Plus, all of the food I buy now is organic. I’m American, and I think my body is also sensitive to how food has been manipulated. I’m an omnivore, but I eat more fish because it’s my preference, and it’s easier to digest. Rice had always been my safe food, but over time, I found I no longer was. I haven’t had rice since January. If I had a bit of an upset (it’s been months since) I have bone broth with a bit of apple cider vinegar and ginger. This is a better option than white rice. Anyway, good luck on your journey!

[@ladycerebellum]

I've struggled with IBS for about 14 years-ever since the stress of my freshman year of college. Only this year have I realized that for me, it's mostly a physical manifestation of my anxiety. I started doing daily yoga on June 1 and my IBS symptoms are about 95% gone!

[@ladycerebellum]

@@she2li I do Yoga with Adriene on youtube! I started with her 30 day Home program last month and this month I'm doing Yoga Camp.

[@Lawrre]

I feel you! trying to avoid gluten+dairy+sugar is extremely hard but hopefully soon this won't be an extreme as people get more aware of health issues this trio causes!

[@PascallePointing]

I related so much to everything you said. I’m GF, well so far that is what I’ve been diagnosed with but I think it might be more than that. Thank you for sharing I feel so much less alone. I totally know what you mean about it being so much more than just your stomach being bloated. ❤️❤️ needed to hear this so much right now!

[@amelialiana]

Ah im so glad I hope it helps xxx

[@rhiannonmay6738]

I was diagnosed with GF as well and feel like it's a lot more than that I am so glad that people are talking about it

[@sharonberkal6191]

I had the same... and at the end it was fructose and a lack of stomach fluids and stomach enzyms. But fructose made all te different. I stopped eating 'healthy' or what everyone says it is healthy, and i lost one size straight away by just being deflated. Have you ever tried this? I had no proper intolerance, but it was just toooo much with all the fruits, and veg, and juices. Now after six month I feel healthier than ever.

[@G-spookyk4zs]

It's not about eating" healthy " It's about actually eating real foods everyones should eat real Whole Foods and Count your macros and track your calories

[@dariagurl]

Thank you so much for sharing. I don't suffer from SIBO or IBS but I have plenty of health issues and your sharing about self confidence, naturopathic medicine and how you cope just speaks to me because it's very much my journey. I know this will help a lot of people so thank you for your courage and bravery!

[@amelialiana]

Thanks so much!

[@Kuukiet]

Thank you for talking about this. My sister just figured out that she has IBS and it is hard. We are trying to figure out what foods triggers it and unfortunately a lot of her favourite things are triggers. I feel so sad for her. 😔 I would love to learn more about it to find things that could work for my sisters. ❤️

[@katyb2793]

I have IBS and there were so many points in here that were helpful, and I've had it for 24 yrs... so thank you 😊

[@chloesharkey]

Never heard of this before but I learnt so much within this video alone! You are so strong ❤️

[@starabaker]

I used to have really bad IBS flare ups for years and years. Until I stopped the pill. All it took for my flare ups to stop was to stop the pill. It was almost immediate. I have not changed anything at all apart from that. Today, I can eat whatever I want without being scared of having a flare up. I am not the only one, if you check online you’ll see. I think it’s important to spread the word.

[@amelialiana]

I think you're right! when my SIBO was at its worst I was on the pill and after doing some research I came off! It has such an effect on my body we aren't alone!!

[@starabaker]

Amelia Liana aawww Amelia! I am so happy you feel better! And seriously someone needs to speak up about this pill thing! Thanks for sharing!

[@Missfrankiecat]

I am convinced from my own experience with what was diagnosed as IBS, that IBS is very influenced by hormones, so the contraceptive pill is likely to be an issue for some women. I suffered very badly in the perimenopause, for about 4 -5 years. Once in actual menopause, IBS has all but disappeared, with no other change to my diet or stress levels. Most clinicians and alternative practitioners talk about diet and stress-reduction in relation to IBS but seldom hormones (despite far more women than men being affected).

[@Clara-hg1hd]

Thanks for this video. I found it really useful - I have ibs but it’s not anywhere near what you endure. I’m so sorry you have had to suffer like this.

[@wehrman-yw4qr]

Please do a health update! Update on sibo, stress related, etc ❤

[@jojogirl34]

I have SIBO as well for so many years now. Have you tried or heard of Megasporebiotic? Im currently taking it and it’s promising. I also recently got Foodmarble which is a device you blow into and it tells you your hydrogen gas levels, similar to the SIBO breath test, but you can use it anytime like after a meal to see how your body reacts to certain foods. It’s been helpful to help me keep track of my progress.

[@novaroberts8200]

I was just diagnosed with SIBO and am on antibiotics now and then will go on the SIBO diet. Thank you for making this video, so helpful 😘

[@nathaliebevers773]

I have stomach problems but not as serious as yours and I really feel like your doing so well! I'm really proud of you x

[@Bekkie8893]

Hey Amelia! I understand this is your story (and I’m not saying that alternate therapy shouldn’t be talked about) but in an age of doctor/science skepticism I really wish you would have put a caveat to try encourage people to still seek traditional medical attention (in addition to alternative medicine). Again, understand this is your story and it is difficult enough without thinking about a million things like that. Regardless I am glad that you are doing better 🧡

[@rattylol]

Did you listen, she said she tried that first and nothing helped, that's when people find "alternative" therapies, hence the name. Don't you know that most medicine derives from old therapies?

[@Bekkie8893]

​@@rattylol with respect I think you've misinterpreted my criticism. As I said, there is nothing wrong with discussing alternative therapy and there is obviously a place for it where traditional medicine fails. I just think messaging is important here, and I wouldn't want someone to stumble on the video and completely rule out consulting with doctors/relevant health care professionals because of anecdotal experience.

[@manatolia205]

We should trust science. Only a small percentage of a population it's actually diagnosis with celiac disease, we have to be careful on what's actually exposed on the social media.... Gluten free its a huge market profit for countries like USA and UK. Do your homework and trust your medical provider.

[@NL0232]

@@manatolia205 unfortunately the science is not there on a lot of these conditions yet, hence medical practitioners do not have proven treatments for patients that work. It's actually a rather beautiful, complimentary system where alternative medicine passed down generations and cultures has it's place - just like a physiotherapist or dietician have their place.

[@CalmVibesVee]

Traditional medicine hasn’t caught up to the demand of sibo help.

[@annosuke]

So much love for you talking about this. So much of what you said makes sense and not just for anybody with digestive issues. Particularly the parts about trying to have meals in a relaxed environment rather than rushed or stressed. I think eating on the go and not taking time for meals is something a lot of people do in the UK and it’s not a good thing.

[@amelialiana]

I agree Anna! I honestly wasn't aware I was doing it before vivamayr!! x

The gut is our second brain - you're on to something :) I hope things keep improving and best wishes.

[@rosed4304]

I know how you feel, was diagnosed with SIBO a couple of years ago now and about a year ago, after a year of antibiotics, fodmap/keto dieting, and repeated testing, I was informed that my form of SIBO is resistant to treatment, so on top of two autoimmune diseases(celiacs/crohns) I also have SIBO to manage. I was very depressed at first, but like you I now don't take the tests and when I feel the familiar symptoms of a SIBO flare up, I call my doctor in order to get a round of meds to assist me in managing things. For the most part I manage my SIBO similarly through a carefully cultivated diet as well as other healthy lifestyle tools like regular physical activity, proper sleep, etc...

[@CalmVibesVee]

What are your least problematic carbs, veg/fruit. Carrot, squash, apple?

[@siro4239]

Thank you for sharing! You look healthy which means you take good care of yourself :) I’m also having some digesting problems the past year, so hearing you talk about it helps!

Aww sending you love xx

[@anxuann]

Thank you for the tips and the video! Sometimes you feel alone with these kind of issues and this helps lots!

[@carolineholzwarth6360]

I can identify with you so much. I have had IBS and gluten intolerance since I was 21. I am now 62. I can’t remember when I did not have some issue with my gut. The symptoms have evolved and changed over the years. The process of accepting the diagnosis and living with the diagnosis takes a long time. Just about the time you think you have figured out a way of living with the condition life happens and symptoms change and another cycle of coping begins. Fodmap diet helps, but is very challenging to adhere to. Exercise helps. A calm life helps, but is totally unrealistic especially for Type A personality. What works is taking everyday, doing your best to eat well, staying away from trigger foods, BREATH, and try to be good to oneself. Keep trying to find what helps YOUR symptoms.

[@pyewacket8003]

Amelia, you may know this already; please consider high intensity exercise often floods the body with the stress hormone cortisol, which could be exacerbating the SIBO. Although you might get an “exercise high”, it could actually be a flight or fight response. This happens for a lot of people, although not everybody. Exercising without reaching that high intensity could be better for you. Sorry if this is unsolicited advice 😊, I just feel it could help you.

[@Katalb7]

All you say makes so much sense! Eating to me was always something intimate! I never liked eating with people I don‘t like or with strangers! I‘s not the same! I can’t enjoy it as I would among family or friends! Also I would never go and eat with a first date! Also no tv! We use dinner time to get together and tell each other what we did etc. Lots of love and all the best on your health journey 🥰

[@asabzevari2408]

I feel for you and thank your for sharing! I have battled for years with stomach issues which after 9 years is still undiagnosed properly but what I didn’t know about as SIBO and I have a lot of those symptoms so going to research more about this topic. big hugs lovely 🥰

[@faysmith7274]

This is a revelation. It has taken me 6 years of doctors visits to finally get a blood test to rule out all the ones it wasn’t. I felt very down when I was told what it wasn’t as I just wanted to get it sorted. Finally, a doctor says it must be IBS by default with me knowing more than he did! I’m vegetarian by choice but I am gluten and lactose free because it started to help my body. Over lockdown I stared to take the digestive plus powders from Arbonne and all the bloating has nearly gone to an extent that I feel confident in wearing clothes that don’t float over my tummy. The powders are not a solution but they definitely have something in them that agrees with my body. I find eating out an issue and have made to feel really awkward about what I can’t eat. I have been known to tell a server that this is not something I have by choice and imagine a menu where you can only eat maybe one thing! I got really emotional when I went into a cafe and I had a choice of milk alternatives and things I could eat and I apologised for getting emotional and had to explain what a revelation it was to be able to go somewhere and not to have to interrogate the serving staff and be able to pick something off the menu like I had been able to do before. My other half says I sleep all the time and I didn’t even think about this as being connected. Our food shop has increased in price as the ‘special food’ is so expensive and all seems to be high in sugar. Thank you for making this video, i can imagine your day to day struggles and I wish I could make it all disappear. Sending you much love and virtual hugs.

[@kimas6123]

[@ohsolovelymrs]

Thank you for sharing! I’ve suffered from IBS for about 5-6 years now and it truly takes forever to diagnose sometimes. I was also treated for SIBO at the beginning of my diagnosis because I researched a lot. A lot of what you shared resonates with me. It’s a hard heath issue to deal with because it isn’t always apparent to others what’s going on and it’s not always easy to understand. Being your own heath advocate is truly one of the best things you can do for yourself!

[@polyannamoonbeam]

On the back of your vlog about your journey with SIBO I went to find a book because of some similar ups downs in GI territories. I found a small dense paperback cutely titled ‘The Bloated Belly Whisperer’ by Tamara Duker Freeman ,pub- St.Martins Griffin ,not expensive €18.95.. reading it all week, post it’s plastered front to back. She said similar about overdoing it on supplements herbs etc- they can’t be absorbed when you have inflammation. Lots more- she covers upper abdominal (stomach) and lower abdominal ( intestines) forms of bloating ,all the causes,treatments, diets,medications,tests, symptoms,recipe plans ,samples. So,thank you for putting the time and thought into posting this personal account of SIBO. I had been putting my health self check on the back burner .

[@Heart1430-z1v]

Those who live in suppression have more stomach and gut problem this what I heard from one psychologist and when I think about it was so true. I used to have some abdominal problem but after some very serious stress which I took after my studies I became chronic constipated because of lots of stress. Please don’t have stress it is cause of many diseases.

I’ve been only eating beef, butter for a year and been on antimicrobials most of the year now trying to have some Lo fodmap low histamine veg for energy. I can’t really lose much more weight on carnivore but I know most plants feed sibo. I’m trying carrot, spaghetti squash, zucchini, and lettuce soon. Can you eat lettuce and salad dressing?

[@cecilycrewe6702]

Try cutting gluten and dairy products for two weeks . Then introduce dairy slowly and see if you have a reaction or feel uncomfortable . Then try introduce bread and rice etc and see if there is any reactions ....

Amelia, you may not even get to read my comment, but, if one believes in the Ayurvedic philosophy, there are 3 body states/types (Doshas) - Vatha, Pitha, Kapha. Imbalance in any of these results in some ailments. If I am not wrong, what you have is the Pitha imbalance (acne, gut issues etc.). Please try and read about them.

[@Shaikah420]

I hope you’re better by now, I discovered that I have SIBO since 2018 or even earlier please stop the antibiotics they’re very bad for SIBO, go natural & eat vegetables like 👍🏻 now.

I feel you and relate to you a lot! I have IBS, diagnosed as a teen and it wasn't a problem to me on the daily but almost 3 years ago (in my begining of my thirties) I had pretty bad IBS "attack" with other some kind of germ and that left me traumatized for life. had bloating, lower stomach constant pain, lack of appetite, nausea and many more symptoms for months. I left the house only for work because I was scared to leave not knowing what will happen with my stomach and pain. I switched doctors because they thought I was being dramatic about my IBS . with diet for a few months given from naturopath my body healed eventually (took over a year). there are some foods I still avoid and I still pay attention to what I eat 3 years later. I try to eat gluten free mixed with some gluten food (some of the gluten free food in shops has ingredients that are bad for me so its difficult for me to switch completely) and not eating at night.

I have IBS and I take probiotics and peppermint oil for it. I also take an anti-anxiety medicine for my anxiety and that has worked wonders for my IBS too, my gastro has recommended I try it awhile ago and I wish I tried it sooner!

Hi Amelia, the doc suspecting IBS for me, as my symptoms are matching, had some tests around it. What tests you recommend to ask for & do you follow the lowFODMAP diet? I found it hard tho. Loving the shroom 😊

I have an app on my phone called SIBO info and it tells me about different foods and which ones to eat :) I found sticking to low fodmap especially in the evening helped so much! Good luck my love xx

Thanks so much, I have just been diagnosed with ibs and Sibo and I’m having such a hard time adjusting. I have a very stressful job so it’s even more hard to hear just relax. I love you talking because it’s so emotional to me. I feel like nobody understands and I don’t have the energy to try. If you have tips for simple food (I live in Costa Rica and we don’t have that many options)

[@amelialiana]

Pamela! Sending you so much love! Vivamayr told me to eat as much whole food as I can so anything in its full form like vegetables, fruits etc :) The less processed the better is what they said! xxx
