Stop taking probiotics (they are making your gut worse)

One of the biggest mistakes I see in the wellness space is women taking probiotics, hoping they will heal their gut..

Women with IBS, bloating and constipation are told they need more “good bacteria”..So they double down on probiotics.

But so often you’re not lacking bacteria, you have TOO much bacteria!

In this episode, I break down exactly why your “gut healing” protocol isn't working, what's actually happening in your gut, and how to fix it properly.

In this episode, we cover:

The SIBO Reality:
Why IBS is not a deficiency problem and how bacterial overgrowth in the small intestine completely changes your strategy.

The Probiotic Mistake:
What actually happens when you add billions of bacteria into an already overgrown gut, and why this drives bloating, gas and pain.

The Brain Fog Link:
How excess bacterial fermentation produces D-lactic acid, impacting your brain and leaving you foggy, flat and exhausted.

The “Doing Everything Right” Trap:
Why clean eating, supplements and probiotics can still make you worse when the root cause hasn’t been identified.

Test, Don’t Guess:
Why guessing your way through gut protocols doesn’t work, and the exact testing we use to get real answers.

The Correct Healing Order:
Why we remove and treat first, restore motility, then rebuild — not the other way around.

When Probiotics Actually Help:
The specific strains and situations where probiotics make sense, and why timing matters more than the supplement itself.
