Hi! I'm Nikki. I love geeking out about the gut! βI make videos covering topics such as digestion, the microbiota, nutrition, herbal medicine, the gut-brain axis, and conditions such as leaky gut syndrome, candida overgrowth, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), and small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO).
I'm also one of the hosts of the IBS Freedom Podcast π

I don't like being away from Youtube for this long... but I also don't have it in me for a full "come back" yet. I was tossing the following ideas around recently, and thought I'd see if there is any interest.
1. Doing a weekly live vlog
Full disclosure, this would NOT involve me answering health questions or giving health advice. Rather, it would be more of a peek "behind the scenes" of my burnout recovery journey. Topics would likely include things like mental health, self-help topics, making business decisions, navigating patterns like people-pleasing, spiritual stuff, the state of healthcare, AI and how it's affecting healthcare and the world, what's next for me, and just showing what it looks like to be in the "messy middle" of a challenging journey/transition. This would be weekly here on Youtube, though it would be posted on a different channel.
2. Gut-health research focused Substack
I spend a lot of time reading research related to gut health, nutrition, and herbal medicine. So, I thought that it could make for a fun, low-pressure project to give little research summaries as I read new things. Basically, I would pull out a handful of important quotes add my own explanation/summary (written by me, a human, not AI) for each article I read. I imagine that this would be most appealing to people who work in healthcare. But, perhaps it would appeal to some mega nerds, too? This would be a paid thing, but cheap ($5/month or $50/year).
At the end of the day, I'm gonna pick what feels appealing and good to ME, but I'm still curious to see what ya'll say :)

I have a few spots left to speak with you TODAY!
Yup, you read that right - I've opened up my calendar for the day for calls.
If you've been wondering if FODMAP Freedom can help you...
π¦ Finally wrangle dysbiosis, candida, and even SIBO...
π₯ Reintroduce high FODMAP foods...
π© And poop like a champion
TODAY is your opportunity to have a conversation with me and find out!
Please note, this is NOT a sales pitch. Itβs a real conversation β about your symptoms, your history, your goals β and whether FODMAP Freedom can actually help you. If it's not a good fit, I'll let you know that (and try to point you in a different direction).
And if it IS a great fit? Well, this could be the call where everything finally starts to shift for you π₯°

One thing I'm damn good at is helping people reintroduce FODMAPs.
You - Yes, YOU - Can eat high FODMAP fruits and vegetables again...
And you can feel great while doing it.
With the right tools and the right support, you can flatten your tummy, poop like a champion, and enjoy high FODMAP foods again.

Sorry this channel has gotten quiet recently! I'm still here, just hit a few speed bumps:
1. Busy few weeks with lots of eye doctor appointments due to 2x retinal tears and a near brush with retinal detachment π± I'm grateful that we learned enough about the eyes in chiropractic school that I knew to take my symptoms seriously! Retinal detachment can cause permanent blindness in the affected eye.
2. I think I burned out on Youtube slightly back in February. Who told me it would be a cool idea to post 14 videos in 14 days? While doing 100% of editing myself? Oh, that was me? Whoops.
3. We welcomed a new group of FODMAP Freedom students in early May. I love FODMAP Freedom, but, packing all those prokinetic speed dating kits takes a lot outta me. It's worth it though-
With my "speed dating" process, 93% of IBS/SIBO sufferers find 1+ herbal prokinetics that help:
- Reduce bloating
- Alleviate abdominal distention
- Alleviate abdominal pain
- Alleviate constipation
- Alleviate diarrhea (yes, prokinetics can help diarrhea!)
- Improve/increase FODMAP tolerance (hellooooooo garlic!)
I'm in the early stages of my latest literature deep-dive, and I can't wait to bring it to Youtube! I'm hoping to teach ya'll about BILE ACID MALABSORPTION sometime in July π₯°
Stay cool,
Dr. DiNezza
