SIBO is becoming more well known as it's a major driver of gut problems like IBD, Crohn's and Colitis. But your doctor isn't likely to have the foggiest clue what to do about it (if they even bother to test for it).  SIBO is responsible for 70% or more of all IBD cases, and is a major player in 60% or more cases of Crohn's and colitis.

A lot of things have been labelled "autoimmune" that have turned out to not actually be autoimmune... so the question has to be asked: "Does auto-immunity actually exist?" To date, we do have evidence that autoimmune disease is very real, but most of these instances look to either be collateral damage, "molecular mimicry" where your body produces something that looks like an invader, or something else. And the root causes of "autoimmunity" are well understood to be leaky gut, a trigger of some sort and genetic predisposition. And in this episode, we're challenging the paradigm of autoimmune diseases to see if your body can actually attack itself.   TOPICS DISCUSSED: What autoimmunity actually is "auto-antibodies" vs "antibodies" What it truly means to attack yourself Specific types of antibodies we thought attacked "self" but turned out to attack "other" Different anbitodies in Crohn's, Colitis and Lyme disease (just as examples) Evidence they are not attacking you How you can begin healing from autoimmune diseases   Leave us a Review: https://www.reversablepod.com/review   Need help with your gut?

Your neck is the highway from your brain to your body, and one small instability (even if you don't feel it) can create a whirlwind of issues in your body below it: from low energy to gut issues, hip or knee pain, a weakened immune system, poor sleep, bad moods and so much more. But what no one talks about is how you're likely dealing with this silent neck problem and how one simple movement or adjustment can correct this whole cascade of events that's slowly strangling the health and viltality out of your body.   TOPICS DISCUSSED IN THIS EPISODE: The role of neck and nerve function in gut health, stomach acid and enzyme production, gut motility and leaky gut How neck misalignment (C1 instability) creates pain down below How to make treatments and adjustments last Genetic factors weakening your connective tissues Complimentary therapies to stiffen ligaments so your adjustments and joints hold Practical steps to give to your own health care providers   More from Dr. Ryan Emmons: Instagram: @drryanemmons Clinic Website: atlaspaicentre.com C1 Course for Professionals: clinicalupgrade.ca   Leave us a Review: https://www.reversablepod.com/review   Need help with your gut?

The benefits of fibre have been up for debate for a number years now because some people feel much worse and others feel much better when they eat it. This puts some tension between the plant and animal based communities, so I thought we'd settle it here and now. So the question we need to ask isn’t “is fibre good?”; but instead we should be asking “is fibre good for YOU right now. And "why or why not?”   TOPICS DISCUSSED: Is fibre an essential nutrient? what does fibre do in your gut? why would fibre make your gut better or worse? how much should you eat and how do you introduce it properly? do you need fibre to poop? who should or should not be eating fibre, and why?   Leave us a Review: https://www.reversablepod.com/review   Need help with your gut?

Bruce Lee once said “Don’t speak negatively about yourself, even as a joke. Your body doesn’t know the difference. Words are energy and they cast spells.” At the time, this sounded a little crazy, but with modern science, we can understand this more. Your words literally change your biology, and both positive and negative words have power of your mind, your body, and your health. This episode dives into the science and practical applications of positive affirmations, vibrations and freuency as taught by other scientists that we've had on the show like Dr. Gerald Pollack and Dr. Bruce Lipton.    TOPICS DISCUSSED IN THIS EPISODE: What spiritual psychology is and how it's scientifically different than the "woo woo" The power of "I am" statements, mantras, and theta brainwave programming The science of water, vibration, and food blessing  Generational trauma and epigenetics   Meditation for the restless or distracted mind  Balancing healthy living with freedom from perfectionism   More from Erin Doppelt: Instagram: @erinrdoppelt Website: erinracheldoppelt.com   Leave us a Review: https://www.reversablepod.com/review   Need help with your gut?

What if your anxiety, brain fog and depression we’re just in your head… what if they were coming from your gut? I can tell you from experience that this is almost always the case.

And today's guest is going to show you how to come out of that to heal yourself naturally.

Everything is connected, and the choiced you make today, directly impact your health tomorrow.

You’ve been taught that water is just a passive factor in the body - something you drink and excrete. But science has proven that water is so much more than a solid, liquid or gas: there's actually a fourth phase of water that holds the key to energy, detox, and cellular communication. Dr. Gerald Pollack is the world’s leading researcher on structured water, and his discovery of "EZ water" (Exclusion Zone water) has completely disrupted our understanding of how the body works, from circulation to inflammation to aging. If your health feels stuck, stagnant, or slow, it might not be your gut, your hormones, or even your mindset. It might be your water.   TOPICS DISCUSSED IN THIS EPISODE: What the 4th phase of water is, and how it's different than the water you know How water can store and transmit information for your health, biology and energy How water influences consciousness, mindset and healing potential How "EZ Water" may account for the placebo effect and the healing potential it has How you can optimze your water for better health and wellness   More from Dr. Gerald Pollack Website: pollacklab.org Water Journal: waterjournal.org Annual Water Conference: waterconf.org Email (academic): ghp@uw.edu      Leave us a Review: https://www.reversablepod.com/review   Need help with your gut?

I've had clients come to me with thousands of dollars in functional labs, and still no answers for their health issues; which means they wasted their money. Labs like a GI map (gut microbiome), OAT (organic acid test), HTMA (hair tissue mineral analysis) and other tests can be helpful, but they may not be needed; and in some cases, they're downright wasteful of your money.   TOPICS DISCUSSED: What lab tests are worth your money Which tests are a waste, and which to avoid How I help 90% of my cients avoid spedning money on labs How to get the most out of your functional labs   Leave us a Review: https://www.reversablepod.com/review   Need help with your gut?

If you describe your health and your life as: busy, exhausted, inflamed and ignored by your doctor, then you need to hear this.  Up to 92% of adults are metabolically unhealthy, and the "normal" lab ranges your doctor looks at to say "you're fine" are based on the average of that already sick population. Which means you'll never actually feel good if you keep going to your traditional family doctor. Dr. Elena Zinkov has helped over 20,000 women who refuse to settle with "normal" to feel like their vibrant selves again.   TOPICS DISCUSSED IN THIS EPISODE: How chronic stress hijacks your gut, hormones and immune system What cortisol dysregulation is and why it really matters What hidden infections you may have that are sabotaging your health (Candida, SIBO, parasites) Why you're being gaslit by your doctor How to feel like your vibrant self again   More from Dr. Elena Zinkov Website: drelenazinkov.com Clinic: proactivehealthnd.com Instagram: @drelenazinkov     Leave us a Review: https://www.reversablepod.com/review   Need help with your gut?

Your body never forgets and it keeps track of every thought, mood, trauma and emotion, storing them inside your body's tissues. Over time, as these things accumulate in your body, they cause inflammation and contribute to chronic disease and even autoimmune conditions.  This has been well understood by other cultures for thousands of years and is only now being proven by modern science.   TOPICS DISCUSSED IN THIS EPISODE: Why stress and trauma is not just a psychological event How your body stores emotions and memories in its tissues How these emotions can be released by manioulating the physical muscle, fascia or other tissues Functional medicine, sound and red light therapy How stored emotions can create symptoms that just won't go away - no matter what you do Takeaway action steps so you can begin releasing these emotions to heal your physical body   More from Dr. Eboni Cornish + the Amen Clinics: Website: jadeteta.com Books: jadeteta.com/jade-teta-books Instagram: @jadeteta YouTube: @drjade Email: support@jadeteta.com     Leave us a Review: https://www.reversablepod.com/review   Need help with your gut?
