The Vibrant Wellness Podcast Five Hidden Culprits Behind Chronic Constipation with Allison Jordan
Think you know constipation management? This episode challenges conventional wisdom, delving far beyond fiber and water to uncover overlooked root causes and innovative functional medicine strategies. This is essential listening for clinicians seeking to offer transformative results in gut health and vibrant wellness.
Today, on the Vibrant Wellness Podcast, hosts Dr. Emmie Brown, ND, and Melissa Gentile, INHC, speak with certified Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner and Better Belly Therapies founder, Allison Jordan. Allison brings her expertise as a global gut health consultant and podcast host, drawing from both personal and professional experience managing “unsolvable” constipation. Together, the trio explores why standard recommendations, such as increased fiber, water, probiotics, and magnesium, often fail to address chronic constipation in many patients.
Allison details her “Gut Healer System” and breaks down five critical, yet frequently overlooked, root causes of persistent constipation. Allison’s insights will equip medical professionals with a more nuanced, multifactorial framework for approaching constipation, integrating functional diagnostics, root cause resolution, and lifestyle change. She shares practical tips, clinical pearls, and free resources, positioning clinicians to move beyond symptom management toward true patient transformation and longevity.
