Lemon water isn’t harming your gut 🍋
There’s no good scientific evidence that it improves gut function either, but it’s also not “damaging” your intestines.
If anything, acidic drinks are more relevant to your oral health 🦷
Your mouth is technically the first part of your digestive system.
Gut health on social media is full of half-truths and fear-based advice, and it’s exhausting trying to work out what’s real 😅
If you want evidence-based, practical guidance for managing IBS without cutting out everything you enjoy, I’ve put together a free guide to help you get started.

🚩🚩🚩Emerging research does not = grounds for healthcare advice.
😩 This is often a term you will see grifters using on social media and it makes their claims look real but actually the research isn’t there to make the recommendations that the are the selling you.

😩😩 Foods which are promoted to be good for the gut are not always good for people with IBS.
😩 This can lead to a lot frustration from people with IBS who are putting in a lot of effort to try and improve their IBS – only to worsen their symptoms.
🥳 The good news is that you can absolutely tolerate a lot of these foods which are good for the gut BUT after you first control your symptoms and then learn what your specific triggers are. Over time I find that clients not only do this but then tolerate more foods in general anyway when their gut is working well.
🙏 So please know that you are not doing anything wrong – you have IBS which means your gut simply doesn’t function well and so you need to tailor generic information.

✈️ How does your holiday impact your IBS?
😅 If truth be told, it’s not the holiday – it’s science. It is how your environment and food changes that will really give you the change in symptoms.

😩 Are you scared to reintroduce FODMAPs?
😊 I get it – you finally have symptom control and suddenly you’re being asked to get symptoms again but this time is different.
