Conditions We Support: Stomach and Other GI Issues

Digestive problems can impact every part of your life—energy, mood, immunity, mental clarity, and even skin. At Modern Holistic Health, we specialize in helping people struggling with persistent gastrointestinal symptoms and chronic stomach problems get to the root cause and heal naturally.

Instead of suppressing symptoms with medications, we investigate why your gut is out of balance and create personalized healing plans that restore digestive function, reduce inflammation, and rebuild overall vitality.

Understanding GI Health

Your gastrointestinal (GI) system is more than just a food processing tube—it’s a complex ecosystem involved in immune regulation, nutrient absorption, detoxification, hormone production, and brain function.

When your GI system is inflamed, out of balance, or compromised, it can lead to a wide range of symptoms that affect more than just your stomach.

Conditions We Commonly Support

We help clients heal from a variety of chronic digestive conditions and related GI symptoms, including:

  • Bloating, gas, and abdominal distension
  • Constipation or diarrhea
  • Chronic indigestion or acid reflux
  • Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
  • Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD: Crohn’s, ulcerative colitis)
  • Leaky gut syndrome (intestinal permeability)
  • SIBO (small intestinal bacterial overgrowth)
  • Candida and other fungal overgrowths
  • Food sensitivities and intolerance
  • Gastritis or ulcers


Many of these conditions are interrelated and involve issues like gut flora imbalances, chronic inflammation, immune dysregulation, or trauma to the gut lining.

Why Conventional GI Treatments Often Miss the Mark

Most conventional approaches to digestive problems focus on suppressing symptoms with antacids, laxatives, anti-diarrheal drugs, or low-FODMAP diets without identifying why the problem exists in the first place.

At Modern Holistic Health, we ask deeper questions:

  • Why is the gut inflamed?
  • What’s driving the overgrowth or immune dysfunction?
  • Are infections, toxins, or stress contributing?
  • Is the brain-gut connection disrupted?


By getting to the root cause, we help clients experience long-lasting relief, not just temporary suppression.

Our Functional Medicine Approach to Gut Healing

At Modern Holistic Health, we take a comprehensive approach to gut health. We use a systems-based, integrative method to identify what’s happening inside your digestive system and what’s contributing to dysfunction, ensuring no stone is left unturned in your healing journey.

Our process includes:

  • Advanced stool testing (GI-MAP, pathogen, and inflammation markers)
  • Food sensitivity and allergy testing
  • Gut permeability (leaky gut) assessments
  • Organic acids testing (metabolic and microbial activity)
  • Functional genomics to assess detox and enzyme pathways
  • H. pylori, SIBO, and Candida screening
  • Evaluation of nervous system and trauma-related gut disruption


The result? A complete picture of your GI health and a plan that actually works.

Symptoms That May Point to GI Dysfunction

Digestive dysfunction doesn’t always show up as belly pain. Common signs of GI imbalance include:

  • Fatigue or brain fog after meals
  • Anxiety, irritability, or mood swings
  • Skin conditions like acne, eczema, or rosacea
  • Joint pain or muscle aches
  • Bad breath or coated tongue
  • Constant sugar or carb cravings
  • Chronic sinus congestion
  • Unexplained nutrient deficiencies
  • Autoimmune flare-ups
  • Feeling worse after “healthy” foods


Your gut is your second brain. When it’s inflamed or disrupted, everything can feel off.

The Gut-Brain-Immune Axis

Modern research confirms what holistic medicine has said for decades: your gut affects your brain, mood, immune system, and overall health.

We evaluate the entire gut-brain-immune axis, including:

  • Serotonin and dopamine production in the gut
  • Vagus nerve tone and gut motility
  • Immune overactivation or under-functioning
  • Emotional trauma stored in the GI system
  • Chronic low-grade infections that keep the immune system on high alert


Healing the gut helps calm the brain, reduce systemic inflammation, and regulate immune responses.

Our Personalized Gut Healing Protocols

At Modern Holistic Health, we understand that no two clients are the same. Your plan is based on lab data, symptoms, history, and lifestyle and is designed specifically for your body’s needs.

Your protocol may include:

  • Targeted antimicrobial herbs or natural antifungals
  • Probiotics, prebiotics, and microbiome rebalancing
  • Gut-repair nutrients (L-glutamine, zinc carnosine, marshmallow root, etc.)
  • Food sensitivity removal and gradual reintroduction
  • Detoxification and liver support
  • Nervous system and vagus nerve activation techniques
  • Breathwork, meditation, and trauma healing to support gut regulation


Everything we recommend is supported by clinical insight and tailored to restore function—not just the symptoms.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What causes chronic bloating and gas?
A: Bloating can be caused by dysbiosis (harmful bacteria overgrowth), SIBO, food sensitivities, enzyme deficiencies, or poor vagus nerve signaling. We test to identify the root cause.

Q: Can gut issues affect my mental health?
A: Yes! The gut produces neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine, and gut inflammation can cause anxiety, depression, and brain fog.

Q: How do I know if I have leaky gut?
A: Common signs include fatigue, food sensitivities, skin issues, brain fog, autoimmune flares, and digestive symptoms. We use lab tests to confirm and guide healing.

Q: Can I heal my gut without medication?
A: Absolutely. We use targeted supplements, herbs, food protocols, and emotional healing tools that naturally allow your body to rebuild gut integrity.

Q: Do you treat SIBO and Candida?
A: Yes. While we do not treat symptoms, conditions, and disease, we identify the type and location of overgrowth and use evidence-based protocols to rebalance the microbiome and prevent recurrence.
