Migrating Motor Complex with Dr Allison Siebecker | Ep 39

The Migrating Motor Complex (MMC) is an essential gut function but how does it work? Coming to you from a live recording at 8 Hearts in Portland, OR, Dr Siebecker talks all about what the Migrating Motor Complex is, what it does and why it’s one of our bodies essential functions. She and Rebecca also discuss how and why you might use prokinetics and their benefits. They also get into the subject of bowel movements; how often we should go to the toilet, how to achieve a good bowel movement and what to do if you are experiencing difficulties.
