What is IBS?

IBS (irritable bowel syndrome) is a disorder that affects your gastrointestinal tract, including your stomach and intestines. 

The underlying cause of IBS isn’t well understood, but changes in your gut microbes may play a role. Your gut biome contains microorganisms like fungi, bacteria, viruses, and parasites that support your digestion and overall health. Changes in the biome can trigger IBS symptoms that affect your quality of life. 

The DNA Diet Club takes a futuristic approach to managing and preventing IBS. The providers design a customized diet to rebalance your gut biome. They can also use the diet plan to address inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) like Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis.
