🙋‍♀️IBS is so much more than the symptoms you have to deal with every day. It is what these symptoms bring. How they impact your life.

🤷‍♀️Can you tolerate coffee? Comment below ⬇️⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🙋‍♀️ Coffee contains the active ingredient caffeine. Although we think of caffeine as an everyday thing, it is a drug and does have an impact on our body. In IBS, this impact may be negative in the form of over stimulating bowels. It can also worsen anxiety and prevent good quality sleep, both of these aspects then have a knock on impact on your IBS.

🤔Instead of blindly avoiding all coffee (which may not be needed). Here are some top tips from the Take Control Membership:
1️⃣ Never exceed 400mg caffeine a day (this is the general guidelines for a healthy intake and is lower for those pregnant and breast feeding)
2️⃣ Reduce intake gradually to avoid headaches.
3️⃣ Avoid coffee after mid-day (it's long 1/2 life means it may still be in your system when trying to sleep otherwise).
4️⃣ Track your bowel habits and mood against intake to see if it is causing an issue.
5️⃣ Coffee isn't all bad for IBS - if you have IBS-C, you may find that it helps you go!

🙋‍♀️ When you have IBS there may be multiple foods that cause you a reaction. Take the time to explain this to loved ones...you are not avoiding foods for the fun of it!.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

🤷‍♀️Have you heard of SIBO before? Comment below ⬇️

🙋‍♀️SIBO (small intestinal bacterial overgrowth) is a condition caused by..you guessed it...an overgrowth of bacteria in the small bowel. It is unclear what causes SIBO but it does seem to be linked with PPI medications, low immunity and poor gut motility.

🤓The management of SIBO is difficult. Because the best diagnostic tools we currently have are not very accurate and the current treatments for SIBO are mostly antibiotics. We often see in practise that SIBO tends to return after antibiotic treatment, likely due the underlying cause not being treated.

🤓SIBO management;
✅Antibiotics
✅Addressing motility (avoiding constipation)
✅Optimising good gut bacteria (so it can thrive and compete with bad bacteria)
✅Elemental diet - some limited research to support this use as a treatment.
❓Low FODMAP diet - no evidence but the theory is that these FODMAPs will feed the bad bacteria so avoidance of them whilst taking antibiotics may allow the antibiotics to work better.
❌Herbs - no placebo controlled trials to support this or any logical theory.

🤓Ultimately we have very limited research in this area. I tend to work with gastroenterologists on this one to first have the condition diagnosed and then get the individuals gut in a place where the antibiotics are mostly likely to work.

THE IMPORTANCE OF GETTING OUTSIDE?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🤷‍♀️How often do you get outside each week? For how long? Comment below ⬇️⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🙋‍♀️When I discuss movement with my clients, I often find that either they rely on the gym / computer or simply do not do any exercise. And before you say, it is because of the weather, even my clients in warmer climates have a similar pattern. Failure to go outside in the day can be disruptive to your circadian rhythm (sleep cycle) and we know this is connected to you gut. Outside exercise can also beneficial to your gut microbiota.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🤓So keep it simple and schedule in a 30 minute walk each day (15 mins out and back...not difficult at all :).⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

🤷‍♀️Which emotion are you today? Comment below ⬇️⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🙋‍♀️when you have IBS, it is a whirlwind of emotion. One minute, everything is going well and then suddenly you have a flare up of symptoms. Or perhaps you are anxious about what your bowels may do. This whirlwind is due to having a limited understanding of your triggers and so you simply can not avoid them. Instead of this, opt for the low FODMAP process which will guide you step by step to pinpointing your trigger foods.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

🤷‍♀️Do you have any symptoms of IBD? Comment below ⬇️⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🙋‍♀️I always advise my clients that they MUST get an accurate IBS diagnosis, this includes ruling out IBD.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🤓IBD stands for inflammatory bowel disease. Although many symptoms are similar, the condition is not. IBD is an autoimmune disease which causes inflammation in the GI tract. So, make sure you have the correct testing done (a fecal calprotectin test).⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

ARE YOU GUILTY OF STAYING UP Late?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🤷‍♀️ Give me a 😅 below if this is you? Comment below ⬇️⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🙋‍♀️ Sleep is such an important factor in our general health as well as gut health.. Yet we seem to put it at the bottom of the list after fitness and nutrition.. Why? Whilst chatting to @drsalihaafridi recently she summed it up.. We evented electricity! .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🤓Poor quality and or quantity of sleep will reduce your mental wellbeing and negatively impact your gut. It also impacts your food choices.

👍We cover sleep hygiene in my Take Control Programme (available for joining at the end of this month). In the meantime, here are some easy tips.
✳️ Use @off_the_grid_app (to block your phone overnight!)
✳️ Read before bed
✳️ Have a hot shower before bed to relax your muscles
✳️ Go to bed and get up at the same time each day
✳️ Use an eye mask⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
