If you have lived with acid reflux, heartburn, bloating, or stomach pain that will not go away, even after PPIs, elimination diets, and round after round of doctor visits, this conversation is for you.
For over five years, Jessica Washington cycled through the ER, a PPI, a SIBO label, and increasingly restrictive diets, with no real answers. Her H. pylori test even came back negative, something that happens far more often than most people are told. Everything changed when she ran functional labs with a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition practitioner and finally saw what was driving her symptoms.
Host Michele Scarlet and Jessica, now an FDN practitioner and founder of The Gut Healing Ninja, get into:
- Why upper-gut symptoms like reflux and gastritis often start outside the stomach
- Why a negative H. pylori test does not always mean you are in the clear
- What a GI Map reveals that standard testing misses
- The gut-brain connection and the invisible weight of managing symptoms daily
- How addressing root causes gave Jessica her health, energy, and family back
