The following is a concise summary of the transcript:
The speaker is Dr. Carlos Jaramillo, a functional doctor and author of books on health and nutrition. He talks about irritable bowel syndrome, a condition that affects millions of people and causes digestive problems. He explains that the term irritable bowel is incorrect, because the whole digestive tract is involved, not just the colon. He outlines six steps to treat this condition from a functional medicine perspective:
- Remove: Eliminate foods and substances that damage the digestive system, such as processed, industrial, canned, and artificial foods, dairy products, gluten, excess liquids, alcohol, etc.
- Replace: Restore the functions and substances that are missing or impaired in the digestive system, such as stomach acid, digestive enzymes, bile, etc.
- Remove/Inoculate: Eradicate the bad flora that causes imbalance and inflammation in the colon, using antibiotics, essential oils, or botanicals. Then replenish the good flora with probiotics and prebiotics.
- Repair: Heal the damaged mucosa of the stomach and the small intestine, using natural remedies such as calendula, aloe vera, bone broth, glutamine, glycine, type 2 collagen, etc.
- Rebalance: Regulate the autonomic nervous system that connects the mind and the intestine, using relaxation techniques, meditation, adaptogen plants, alpha GPC choline, magnesium citrate, etc.
- Repeat: Understand that the digestive system is dynamic and constantly changing, and that it needs ongoing care and education to maintain its health and balance.
He concludes by inviting the viewers to like and subscribe to his channel for more videos on functional medicine.
