Discover how faecal loading disrupts the gut-brain axis and fuels conditions like MCAS and POTS in this eye-opening talk with gastroenterologist Dr. Rebecca Ryan. Gain practical insights and strategies to support gut health, reduce inflammation, and restore balance to the nervous system.
Date: Sunday 6 July
Time: 10am – 12pm
With over two decades of clinical experience, Dr. Ryan is a leading voice in the management of complex gut-brain axis disorders, including Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS), Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS), functional gastrointestinal conditions, including post COVID symptoms, liver disease, metabolic syndrome, and how diet, psychological stress and psychiatric conditions, impact all of these (Aurora Healthcare).
In this eye-opening session, Dr. Ryan will explore how faecal loading, often mistaken for simple constipation, can disrupt gut motility, trigger systemic inflammation, and exacerbate symptoms of MCAS and POTS. Drawing from her extensive clinical practice and recent presentations at national conferences, she will provide practical insights into identifying and addressing this overlooked driver of chronic illness.
This event complements our newly launched 3-day Organic Detox Retreats at The Health Lodge, which integrate the very principles Dr. Ryan will discuss, supporting gut clearance, restoring balance, and calming the nervous system. See details to book the luxury detox program below.
Whether you’re a healthcare professional, someone managing chronic symptoms, or simply curious about the gut-brain connection, this talk offers valuable knowledge and actionable strategies.
