Sibo Made Simple - by Phoebe Lapine (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

The patient-friendly masterclass for thriving with Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO)--including 90 easy, delicious recipes for long-term healing.

If you're one of the 25 to 45 million Americans living with IBS, finding an accurate diagnosis, treatment, and ultimately good health can feel like an impossible mystery. SIBO Made Simple brings you answers. Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO) is a common cause of unwanted bloating, abdominal pain, weight fluctuations, and GI distress.

In this guide for achieving long-term healing, health advocate, chef, and SIBO sufferer Phoebe Lapine covers everything you need to know about SIBO and how to thrive in spite of it. Lapine answers all your questions, from what SIBO is (and what it isn't) to related conditions (Hashimoto's thyroiditis, Celiac disease, and more) to practical strategies for on-going prevention. With expert medical advice from dozens of top SIBO practitioners, SIBO Made Simple provides resources for all phases of treatment, offering a clear culinary road map that can be customized to fit a large variety of gut-healing diets, such as the Bi-Phasic Diet, GAPS, SCD, SIBO Specific Food Guide, and more.

With low FODMAP recipes that make a notoriously tough diet doable and delicious, SIBO Made Simple is a one-of-a-kind toolkit for learning about your condition and tailoring your diet toward healing. Every recipe adds anti-inflammatory ammunition to your diet, while offering suggestions for how to add problematic ingredients back in as you diversify your plate.

Getting healthy and feeling great doesn't have to be punitive. SIBO Made Simple offers a clear path forward, from someone who's been there.
