Why do healthy foods suddenly cause bloating and pain?


In this episode, I share how one of the most stressful seasons of my life completely changed my gut and forced me to rethink foods I’d eaten for years without issue. I also walk you through how stress disrupted my microbiome, why I used the FODMAP diet as a short-term reset, and how I transitioned back toward a more diverse diet.

What you’ll learn:


(02:43) Why bloating and food reactions can appear even with a “perfect” diet.

(05:27) What FODMAPs actually are and how they affect digestion.

(06:57) Why FODMAP foods are not bad but problematic for a compromised gut.

(07:44) Which foods are lower FODMAP and easier to tolerate during healing.

(09:54) How long to stay on a low FODMAP approach and why it’s temporary.

(11:47) How to reintroduce foods safely while rebuilding gut health.

(13:50) Why stress management is essential for long-term gut healing.
