The SIBO & Endometriosis Connection with Jade Walker | Ep 105

Naturopath Jade Walkers joins Rebecca Coomes on The Healthy Gut Podcast to discuss the connection between SIBO and Endometriosis, how to identify which condition you have and why your gut health can have a huge impact on the severity of your endometriosis symptoms.  What You'll Learn: * The strong overlap between SIBO and endometriosis, and how many women experience both conditions together rather than in isolation * Why endometriosis is often missed for so long, including outdated beliefs that severe period pain is “normal” and lack of referral to the right specialists * Why people with endometriosis may be at higher risk of SIBO or SIMO, including factors like surgeries, adhesions, constipation, pelvic floor dysfunction, antibiotics, PPIs, and bowel involvement * The concept of “endo belly,” and how bloating in endometriosis may sometimes actually be driven by SIBO, SIMO, bowel lesions, or food intolerances rather than endometriosis alone * Common signs that the gut needs deeper investigation, including bloating, constipation, diarrhea, food reactions, fatigue, brain fog, skin issues, joint pain, and systemic inflammation * The role of histamine intolerance, mast cell activation, and estrogen, and how these can amplify inflammation, pain, and symptom flares in women with endo and gut dysfunction * The impact of adhesions, including how they may contribute to pain, altered bowel function, SIBO development, and the “hot poker” sensation some women experienc * The need for a multidisciplinary, personalised approach, including the potential role of naturopaths, pelvic floor physios, osteopaths, microbiome and SIBO testing, and skilled endometriosis specialists RESOURCES * Watch video interview on The Healthy Gut's YouTube channel [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=02U03M4ETQI] * Get full show notes [https://thehealthygut.com/podcast/sibo-and-endometriosis/] plus sign up for a free membership to access the written transcription * 1-1 SIBO Consultations [https://thehealthygut.com/sibo-treatment-consultations/] * Free 15 minute discovery call [https://thehealthygut.com/lp/sibo-discovery-call-copy/] * Jade Walker Website [https://www.jadewalker.com.au/] * Endo-SIBO Mastery for Practitioners [https://jadeandlaura.com/endo-sibo/] (discount code: Healthygut) * Endo-Care Collective for patients [https://courses.jadewalker.com.au/endo-care-collective] (discount code: Healthygut) * Free resources on endo and gut health [https://courses.jadewalker.com.au/Free-EBook-Downloads] * Jade Walker IG account [https://www.instagram.com/jadewalkerhealth/] Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/thehealthygut [http://supporter.acast.com/thehealthygut]. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.
