Constipation and SIBO with Lynda Griparic
Constipation is one of the leading symptoms of Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth and can be a highly frustrating experience for many SIBO patients. Naturopath Lynda Griparic joins Rebecca Coomes to discuss what it is, why we develop it, and what we can do about it once we start experiencing it.

Thank you very much for the podcast about constipation. It is even comforting to know I’m not unusual! I have just started Bi-phasic diet (2 weeks in) – found it difficult as completely different to the last 50 years! However, your cook books are fantastic – couldn’t have survived without them!
Hi Jenny,
So glad you have found the podcast helpful! Good luck with the diet. We’re always here to answer any questions you may have on it.
Warm regards
Rebecca
