I’ve been letting my IBS symptoms creep up on me since before Christmas. General discomfort, but putting it down to hectic family catch up season, extra travel, eating out etc. Warning sign a few days ago, sharp lower abdomen pain shortly after a ‘full Scottish’ breakfast. Stools varying between hard and soft. Gas (we say farts 😮) not noxious, but almost inadvertent. Still nothing clicked. And then …. now mid January … last night, just before bedtime. Holy Feck ! Absolutely doubled up. Left side, mid to lower abdomen. Really, really acute pain. Spasms. Crawled into bed. Crawled out again 3 times during a sleepless night to pass water. So here I am, stomach groaning and rumbling, but acute pain subsiding, seeking KZbin assistance. Hit the jackpot first time with you, Michelle. Thank you for putting me back on the straight and narrow. Watched both your clips on emergency pain control and dietary recommendations. Extremely helpful, easy to understand and relate to, - and above all presented in a knowledgeable and compassionate manner. So, Thank You from the bottom of my … er bottom 👏👏👏

Thank you so much for making the connection between pelvic floor dysfunction and IBS/constipation. I told providers for years that I thought my severe PFD pain was related to chronic constipation, but no one took me seriously. I finally have had successful PT, and found the FODMAP diet on my own after the only suggestion was Miralax. Miralax works, but creates other problems (multiple bowel movements) as you know. Also, I believe my fairly moderate case of joint hypermobility is a major factor with gut issues, but again no one can address.

[@michellephysio]

@LR LR I couldn't agree more, every time you strain with constipation the pelvic floor nerves and muscles are stretched. If they are already tight this worsens the condition and is extremely painful. I'm so glad to read that you've found the solution, it can take a long time can't it. Have you tried the paediatric version of Movicol? It's an osmotic laxative like Miralax but might be less aggressive on your pelvic floor perhaps? Just a thought and all the best for your future management 🙏 ❤️

[@minksrule2196]

Yes joint hypermobility definitely has something to do with gut issues because joint hypermobility suggests a connective tissue issue and your gut is made of connective tissue so yes it's connected

I make a mixture of chia, flax, and hemp seeds and blend them to a fine powder and add that mixture to smoothies, eggs, or anything else I find I can add them too. Great way of adding some extra fiber and omega 3s and healthy fats.

[@jhennessyde-la-fuente7193]

I was on Fodmap diet two years ago avoiding to eat a lot of this food, it helped me to lose about 25 pounds which it was great. I agree that some of this fruits, vegetables and other things triggers GERD, but some of the food that are allowed to eat also triggers my GERD symptoms. So I think we have to try and see which foods are okay to eat and not. I did eliminate from my diet tomatoes, whole milk, cheddar cheese, corn, chilis, carbonated water and drinks, limes and lemons, black beans, but curiously I can tolerate Pinto beans, and almond milk. I can't tolerate chocolate, strawberries, and anything that has gluten, monosodium glutamate or soy.

Michelle I am SO glad I found your channel! I’ve had gut issues for decades which have been progressively getting worse with lots of constipation. But it’s funny I keep reading how garlic and onions are great prebiotics that help to feed your friendly gut bacteria, so I’ve been having that with my water kefir and sauerkraut all to no avail, and lately I said to myself having just bought a load of them “I don’t think these agree with you”. But it’s funny when you mentioned honey I was flabbergasted! I buy raw honey and always end up with an oral thrush white thick coated tongue, but surprisingly I’m ok with maple syrup. So I’m definitely gonna look into the amo aah diet, because most of my trigger foods are the ones you said to avoid, particularly cashews and pistachios 😳😱. Thank you ever so much for sharing, and here’s to my good health 😊.

[@michellephysio]

@BeaunaturelleFeb11 yes I hear you - unfortunately not all prebiotic foods agree with everyone (myself included). Garlic, onions and sauerkraut are all classic triggers for IBS and yes maple syrup (pure) is fodmap friendly. See if you can work with a dietitian who understands FODMAPS otherwise I can highly recommend the Monash Uni App as it gives quantities etc and is very user friendly. I’ve learnt the hard way that just because a food is a prebiotic doesn’t mean it’s going to be well tolerated. You may find that some prebiotic foods such as cooked and cooked potato and rice work well. I can tolerate tinned asparagus too and small quantities if some tinned legumes but it’s a very individual thing. All the best to you! 🙏

[@michellephysio]

@Adam My apologies for the confusion. Some individuals are intolerant to lactose in regular (and Greek) yogurt. With the elimination diet, regular yogurt can be substituted with lactose-free yogurt or there is an enzyme called lactase (pharmacy or online) that can be taken orally with regular yogurt. Some individuals with lactose intolerance can still tolerate small amounts of lactose eaten through the course of the day too but it’s a matter of finding out how much lactose your body can actually tolerate, first by elimination and then reintroduction of small amounts of regular yogurt. Meanwhile, lactose-free yogurt can be a good option. I hope this helps🙏

Dairy is a trigger for me though. Cow milk, cheese give me stomach pains and bloating. I have no issues with nuts. I can eat them all without issues. Chia seeds give me stomach pains. I also have no issues with honey. Hopefully this helps someone else with similar issues. Gluten is a trigger for me too.

The big concern I've always had with the FODMAPS diet is that it includes so many high-glycemic choices, so maybe you'll solve your IBS and get diabetes while you're at it. You also included some foods very high in oxalates (e.g. kiwi, spinach) which could potentially cause more problems over time than the IBS problem you started with.

[@Oblisk]

That’s why it’s better that start adding IF (intermittent fasting) to your lifestyle. Will help keep insulin down and when it comes to spinach, cooking it will actually help break down and reduce the oxalates making it easier for you to digest.

[@michellephysio]

@Malcolm Achtman yes agreed the FODMAP diet does include some high-gylcemic choices however there are also numerous low-glycemic options too, do you have the Monash FODMAP app? I'm interested in your comment on high oxalate foods worsening IBS, why do you think that this is the case. IBS is really about poorly digested sugars in foods rather than oxalates. Spinach can be readily substituted for plain iceberg lettuce, I personally tend to choose spinach for its iron content as my meat intake is minimal. I'm keen to hear your thoughts on this Malcolm, cheers MK

[@Malcolm-Achtman]

@@michellephysio I don't have the Monash FODMAP app itself but I've checked it out online. And I have a book (The Complete Low-FODMAP Diet) co-authored by Dr. Peter Gibson of Monash University. My comment on high oxalate foods worsening IBS is something that came up in some KZbin videos featuring the "oxalate expert" Sally Norton. Here's a link to one of her videos where I believe she mentioned oxalates and IBS: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hXPGnmeri9qDqbs -Sally Norton would tell you eat lettuce, not spinach, because spinach is a very high oxalate food. I don't eat spinach or lettuce anymore and my diet has become more animal based. Spinach (and lettuce) have made news headlines regarding E.coli contamination from time to time - another reason why I'm happy to avoid it.

@Macey L es you’re correct. Some foods such as the more highly acidic foods eg kiwi fruit can exacerbate GERD while benefitting IBS. The situation becomes more complex when the 2 conditions overlap and this is where a dietician can be of great benefit. All the best! 🙏

[@straightoutofstrat8722]

Thank you for this. Excellent piece of information, because I am sick of having a bloaties stomach.

[@user-ei8rb7sj6c]

Hi Michelle. Thank you for this great video series on IBS. Could you please tell me the names of the fruits you said were good choices that are shown in the pop up picture shown early in this video? I can’t identify them on my screen. You later mentioned oranges, strawberries and kiwi as good choices, but it looks like there are more in that picture. Thank you!

[@michellephysio]

@user-ei8rb7sj6c yes indeed other fruits include cantaloupe (rock melon), bananas, lemon, limes and blueberries (in small amouts for me). Hope this helps!

Baby rice cereal saved my life in 2018. I tsp a day because even water made me have diarrhea for a good 4 months. I was then seen by a Gastrointerologist and she recommended a colonoscopy and the result was a diagnosis of microscopic colitis

[@luhalex3219]

Great vid❤️ , Would like to see more workout vids ☺️.

[@michellephysio]

@luh alex hey there, what type of workout vids would you like to see? I love making workout vids but wasn't quite sure that people wanted to see them as there is so much out there already on workouts. If there's something in particular you have in mind I'd love to hear. Thanks so much for your support & taking the time to suggest 🙏

[@oljaaaaaaa]

Could you do a video for IBS-C specifically? In this video you mentioned coffee and artificial sweeteners which may have laxative effects, but that's more of a problem for IBS-D...I'd welcome some soft stools 😅

[@gaylelizabeth]

Your videos are so helpful and straightforward. You are an Angel! I’ve suffered for years with chronic constipation , IBS~ and a bought with sepsis from a hemorrhoid banding two years ago which has wreaked havoc with my digestive system. I lost my gallbladder and I’ve been diagnosed with severe hypertonic PVD~ my rectum itself was so traumatized, I now must have a colostomy with stoma ( Hartman procedure ) literally to save my life as I’ve lost 55 pounds and I’m now 108. I’m so very nervous for the surgery and how I’m going to eat. I’ve been supplementing with Kate farms nutrient dense drinks… any suggestions you might have would be so very much appreciated ❤️🙏🏼

Thank you so much for this great video! I've been eating Keto for over a year trying to manage my carbohydrate sensitivity. I found the super high fat diet was a gut killer for me. Lot of low carb veggies like the cruciferous ones are great on Keto, but gave me horrible pain 😫

Thank you so much for this, Michelle! You're always so helpful with your videos, I absolutely love them 😊I had a question: Are dates low fodmap and okay to eat?

[@michellephysio]

@Antonella Salvo lovely to hear from you. Dates are high in fructose sugars and therefore considered high FODMAP. Some extra reading tells me that 1/3 of a date is low fructose, ½ a date is moderate, and 1.5 dates high fructose. As for many of the FODMAP foods it’s a matter of elimination then reintroduction to determine your individual tolerance. As a personal aside, I don’t tolerate foods with high fructose well at all however I can tolerate dates which I don’t really understand. I hope this info is helpful!🙏

[@michaell3711]

Please note that it varies from person to person with regard to what will work for you vs another person.

[@MaximeMvokany]

Sounds really interesting. Thank you. Will it be possible that oranges, kiwi or tomatoes that are acid will on the contrary cause pain if we are sensitive?

[@michellephysio]

@Maxime Mvokany yes these high acid foods can irritate the stomach/reflux problems for some people. Small orange tomatoes are low acid and often worth trying instead of red tomatoes if acid sensitive.

VALUABLE HEALTH TIPS WHICH I HAVE LEARNED BY TRYING TO KEEP TO A CARNIVORE DIET FOR MOST OF THE TIME OVER THE LAST FOUR YEARS WHILE ON A TIGHT BUDGET. I have been on a carnivore diet most of the time for approximately four years. I have learned a lot about it because of the mistakes I have made with my carnivore diet strategies during that time. I am on a tight budget and I can still easily keep within my budget while maintaining a carnivore diet. If I continue to eat cheese and natural yogurt while on the carnivore diet I will never lose any weight and furthermore cheese is known to stimulate the human appetite to a large degree. To achieve weight loss and good health on a carnivore diet one must abstain from eating any sugar whatsoever. One must abstain from eating any food which contains fructose, glucose, lactose, maltose, dextrose, or sucrose and if there is any other type of sugar that I have not listed here one must abstain from that also. The human body converts fuel obtained from the carnivore diet into any sugar it might need by a process of gluconeogenesis so there is no nutritional or health requirement for any human being to ever eat any type of sugar whatsoever. Eskimoos which are also known as Inuits and also many other tribes throughout the world who live in cold climates have no access to plants because their climate is too cold to grow plants so therefore they have no access to sugar of any kind and yet they have lived and thrived for thousands of generations without any type of sugar. I am now modifying my carnivore diet by eliminating all yogurt, cheese and butter from now on. I plan to eat six eggs either hard boiled or fried in goose fat for my breakfast and my evening meal and I plan to eat meat for my lunch on a daily basis. The twelve eggs will cost me approximately four Euros and the meat will cost me approximately five Euros and the goose fat and coffee will cost me approximately one Euro which comes to ten Euros per day. I should not be drinking coffee as coffee is a plant and has no part to play on a carnivore diet but I am not willing to give it up at this time. As all of the food I will be eating is non-addictive food I am assured by many other carnivores that my false appetite for food will disappear after one month of keeping to this diet and I will then easily be able to reduce down to two meals per day. While on a carnivore diet it is absolutely essential to intermittent fast which means that one must never snack outside meal time and one must avoid eating food from six p.m. each evening until the following morning. If you continue snacking you will not succeed in your endeavours to improve your health and to lose weight. Intermittent facting by abstaining from food for at least fourteen hours or more during the night while drinking water whenever you feel hungry is an essential part of the health regime and if you skip it you will not succeed in your endeavours. If you suffer from irritable bowel syndrome you must give up all plant fibre because humans have a very difficult time digesting plant fibre. You will then notice an improvement in your digestive health but however your irritable bowel syndrome symptoms will not completely disappear until you also intermittent fast by fasting on water for at least fourteen hours per day. Snacking between meals and at night must be entirely eliminated if you wish for vibrant health. My name is Gretta Fahey from Newbrook, Claremorris, Co. Mayo, Eircode F12 Y560, Republic of Ireland.

[@NoahM8]

Thanks a lot, the information is great. I have been reducing acid reflux issues also might have IBS too. I have used your previous video on diet and constipation too which really helped me.

[@rishabhrajput._]

IBS is easily curable through ayurveda(ancient methods for treating various disease in India) If you want to cure ibs you have to take following medicine for aprox 4-6 month with strict diet and yoga poses but have no idea these medicine is available in your country but you can get these medicine from India if you have any friend or relative - Bilvadi churan Or belgiri churan (1tabkespoon after meal morning and after dinner) -kutajghanvati(2-2 tablets after meal) -chitrakadi vati( " " " ") -kurtajharista syrup ( 4 tablespoon with equal amount of water two time after meal) it's good to cure loose motion and you can take ishabol instant of this if you have constipation. I was also suffer from IBS and now iam totally fine Thank you 😊

[@dannysiliakus7327]

Hello there, just so I didn’t confuse myself, do I stick with the low fodmap diet if I have IBS-constipation?

[@ananthurajagopal9854]

Great video!! How about pomogranate?

[@kelsie9912]

I can’t believe you also have IBS. I was researching the link between Pelvic floor and IBS as I have just been diagnosed with IBS after 7 or so years of symptoms. I wonder if you know is it common to get pelvic ‘ bloat’ or ‘bulging out’ even when not actually having an IBS flare? I’ve noticed over the last 6-12 months my lower abdo pokes out even when not bloated. Is it genetic or something I can fix?

[@michellephysio]

@Kelsie Linnell yes the bloating can occur without a flare-up. It can happen just because of the increased fluid in the belly when the sugars aren’t well digested in the small intestine. This usually happens towards the end of the day. For me the only way to fix is to keep to lower FODMAP foods. I will also mention the importance of speaking with your doctor about abdominal bloating rather than self-diagnosing too. I hope this info helps!🙏

[@honeybunny5325]

Thank you for the video.For me I kind of knew immediately what food was the issue as the reaction would be quick.But I also discovered depending on how the food is cooked would have enormous difference on my gut ie raw onions a culprit but sauted onions ok.Mushrooms are fine and delicious eaten raw.I can eaten bread therefore its different for everyone.Tofu is a big no within minutes was in pain.My ibs has messed with my pelvic floor muscles I can't do kegals as I'm too tense so at moment nurse told me to focus on relaxing.
