In This Episode:
If you’ve ever felt bloated after eating vegetables like broccoli or cauliflower, you’re not alone.
In this episode of the Functional Nutrition Podcast, I dive into why certain veggies can wreak havoc on your digestive system and how you can fix it.

Why Certain Vegetables Cause Bloating
Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) could be the culprit, with bacteria in your small intestine fermenting vegetables too early in the digestive process.
Learn how these fermentable fibers, also known as FODMAPs, contribute to bloating and discomfort, and why some vegetables are more likely to trigger symptoms than others.

How to Reduce Bloating with a Low FODMAP Diet
Dr. Jockers offers actionable solutions, including how a low FODMAP diet can help restore digestive balance and reduce bloating. If you’ve been struggling with digestive issues, this episode will give you the tools to find relief and feel your best again
