Feel intense bloating after eating garlic, onions and fiber? Nauseous after eating food rich in fats? So often we blame the food for the bloating, irregular BMs and stomach pain. But we get it all wrong. In most cases, it's not a food issue. It's a gut issue. Which foods you react to can reveal the underlying why. In this episode of the Nutrient Dense Podcast, I discuss the complexities of food reactions and sensitivities. It is absolutely essential to understand the underlying causes of your food reactions rather than simply eliminating foods. Together we discuss how bacterial overgrowth, low stomach acid, bile issues, and histamine reactions can lead to discomfort after eating, and how these issues are often misattributed to the foods themselves. If you're trying to decode your digestive issues and understand the deeper why, this episode is for you.

• Understanding the root causes of food reactions is crucial.
