   Julie Negron, RD Q & A and Exercise & IBS Talk

   On this episode of Gut Matters, Julie Negron, RD answers frequently asked questions about exercise and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) to manage symptoms and improve quality of life. Exercise can promote gut health by reducing inflammation, strengthening core muscles, and increasing the production of endorphins, serotonin, and dopamine. However, sudden changes or intense workouts can trigger IBS symptoms. The low FODMAP diet and managing stress are crucial for IBS management alongside exercise. Adequate hydration, nutrition, and rest are also important. Cooling down and stretching after exercise are essential to prevent soreness and injury. Lastly, lifestyle modifications can help improve quality of life, such as avoiding triggers and implementing routines for sleeping, eating, and hydration.

   Exploring the Link Between IBS and Overactive Bladder Syndrome

   On this episode of Gut Matters, we explore the proposed link between Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) and Overactive Bladder (OAB). While both conditions share similar trigger patterns and heightened sensitivity to specific physical and emotional stimuli, the exact mechanisms behind the correlation are not yet fully understood. We discuss the potential commonalities between IBS and OAB, such as a bacterial imbalance and inflammation. Additionally, we delve into possible management options, including lifestyle changes, medication, and surgery. Finally, we share listener questions and experiences with IBS and provide advice on finding relief. Tune in for an informative discussion on the connection between IBS and OAB.

[00:00:37] IBS can cause nausea and vomiting, which may indicate SIBO or other conditions and require a visit to a gastroenterologist. An at-home stool test is available. The topic for today is the link between IBS and overactive bladder syndrome. [00:01:59] IBS and OAB share common symptoms; both affect millions across the U.S. Medical community ponders whether IBS can trigger OAB. [00:03:21] IBS and OAB have similar symptoms and trigger patterns, with heightened sensitivity to stimuli; research suggests IBS may increase the risk of OAB due to gut microbiome irregularities, but the connection is not fully understood. [00:04:55] One-third of OAB sufferers also experience IBS symptoms, potentially linked via nervous system or bacterial imbalance, but IBS inflammation may trigger OAB. Managing these conditions together can address underlying commonalities. [00:06:04] IBS and OAB are linked, possibly due to common neural pathways or inflammation. Treatment for one may alleviate symptoms of the other, and personalized approaches including lifestyle changes and medication/surgery may be necessary for management. [00:07:16] Low FODMAP diet and advanced probiotics can help alleviate IBS and urinary issues, but treating one may not fix the other. Seek medical advice and explore treatment options. Casa de Sante offers support for IBS through diet, probiotics, enzymes, and protein powders. [00:08:47] End of session with farewell and invitation for feedback.

   Unlocking Gut Health: Functional Medicine Approaches with Dr. Ann Marie Barter

   In this episode, Dr. Anne Marie Barter joins the show to discuss gut health and her experience practicing functional medicine in Colorado. Dr. Barter specializes in working with patients who have neurotransmitter disorders, such as anxiety and depression, as well as adrenal issues. "I also see a lot of anxiety and depression. I think that that's how linked some of the some of the traumas to it. I mean, because if you're scared to eat all the time, you know, that that can be very stressful and very traumatic and then other lingering traumas and it's a cycle. " - Dr. Ann-Marie Barter Dr. Ann Marie Barter is a graduate of the University of Western States in Portland, Oregon, an accredited 4- year Doctoral program that is considered a leader in evidence-based medicine, and the first Chiropractic school to be awarded a federal research grant. Her expertise in Functional Medicine expanded from basic metabolic function starting in the gut to working with patients with thyroid issues and hormonal imbalances to those with serious symptoms from toxic exposures such as heavy metals and various mold species. As well, she sees many patients suffering emotional disturbances such as anxiety and depression stemming from neurotransmitter imbalances. She is a firm believer in the “test-don’t-guess” method of diagnosis and uses many gold-standard diagnostic methodologies such as the GI Map, OAT and DUTCH tests to help get to the root cause of her patients’ symptoms. Not satisfied with helping just those in her immediate area, in 2019 Dr. Barter launched her first podcast. She regularly chats with experts from a variety of natural health specialties about a range of topics spanning all things functional medicine. In 2020 she added a YouTube channel to her repertoire to complement her podcast. In 2021 she changed the name of her show from the Fearless Health Podcast to the Gut Health Reset. She still discusses functional and alternative medicine with different experts, she just now focuses the show on the gut, since that is where our health (and its inverse) begins, after all. Dr. Barter also delves into the complexities of Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), noting that it can have various causes and symptoms such as bloating, severe food restrictions, constipation or diarrhea. She often runs stool tests to determine the root cause of IBS in her patients. She has found that many IBS patients have experienced trauma in their pasts. The conversation also touches on the role of stress in gut health and how addressing stress can be just as important as antimicrobial treatments when rebuilding a healthy gut microbiome.
