IBS Nutrition Podcast by The IBS Dietitian
Struggling with bloating, unpredictable bowel movements, or food triggers? The IBS Nutrition Podcast is your go-to resource for understanding irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and finding lasting relief through science-backed IBS diets, elimination diets, and gut-friendly lifestyle strategies.
Whether you're dealing with abdominal pain, excessive gas, diarrhea, constipation, or food sensitivities, we help you identify your IBS triggers—from high FODMAP foods and artificial sweeteners to dairy products, gluten, and fermentable carbohydrates.
Hosted by Jessie Wong, a FODMAP-certified registered dietitian, this podcast breaks down:
✔️ IBS diet tips – Learn about foods to avoid, the FODMAP diet, and soluble vs. insoluble fiber
✔️ Gut health science – How your digestive system, gut bacteria, and small intestine affect IBS
✔️ Symptom management – Strategies for bloating, IBS flares, bowel habits, and excessive gas
✔️ Elimination & reintroduction phases – Master the elimination diet and how to safely reintroduce foods
✔️ Lifestyle hacks – Improve your quality of life by managing stress, food anxiety, and IBS attacks
I know firsthand how frustrating IBS can be—I used to suffer from debilitating gut issues, painful bloating, and unpredictable bowel movements. Now, I help people with IBS reclaim their health by understanding their medical history, food sensitivities, and digestive health.

IBS Nutrition Podcast by The IBS Dietitian
20. IBS Success Story: Resolving 5 Years Chronic Diarrhea in Just 4 Months
Struggling with IBS symptoms, chronic diarrhea, but getting nowhere fast? In this episode of the IBS Nutrition Podcast, Dr. Laura shares her incredible journey from five years of daily gut distress to total relief—in just four months—after joining the IBS Freedom Program.
Despite being a medical professional, Laura spent nearly 5 years trying to navigate IBS with diarrhea, digestive flare-ups, and endless food fear on her own. She worked with her GI, tried different diets, and kept searching for answers—until finally, with expert support, everything changed. Within 4 months, she had a SIBO diagnosis, pinpointed her IBS triggers, and broke free from the cycle of flare-ups, food anxiety, and bathroom mapping.
Now? She’s back to doing what she loves—traveling, cycling, hiking—and living life without digestive symptoms holding her back.
In This Episode, You’ll Learn:
✔ Why long-term diarrhea is more than just an inconvenience
✔ How SIBO was finally diagnosed and treated after 5 years of being missed
✔ What made the low FODMAP diet feel doable and not restrictive
✔ The role of community and expert support in lasting IBS relief
✔ How she reintroduced foods with confidence—and handled known triggers
✔ The difference between guessing alone vs. guided gut health support
