This initiative has three primary initial goals
to raise awareness about irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), fund research, and improve patient care.

R a i s e   A w a r e n e s s

By using the hashtag #IBelieveinyourStory and sharing your stories about IBS & SIBO or by posting positive messages to those with these disorders via social media channels (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram), we can help bring a greater awareness to these conditions.

My hope is to make discussions about gut health less stigmatized. It takes guts to talk about your guts. I get it. The reality is, you are not alone. When you share your story, you give other people inspiration and encouragement to share their stories too. Sharing your story can be quite healing. Together we will work in solidarity, to say to every patient out there suffering…we believe in your story. We will work tirelessly together to help you feel your best!

Research funding for IBS & SIBO is almost non-existent. For a condition that impacts 11% of the global population, this needs to change. You can be a part of the solution by donating to key research centers to help fund more studies in this area. You'll be able to donate to Cedars Sinai (SIBO/IBS research) and University of Michigan (IBS/FODMAPs research) through our donate page.

 My goal is to inspire and guide patients trying to navigate their way to optimal digestive health as well as to help educate dietitians and other practitioners working with IBS patients.
