Gut Feelings with Dr. Kumkum Patel

Bloated by noon? Can’t poop on vacation? Convinced you have a gluten allergy but also eat bagels in secret? SAME. This week, I sit down with gastroenterologist and motility expert Dr. Kumkum Patel to talk about everything your gut has been trying to tell you but you’ve been ignoring since 2012.

We get into:

• What causes bloating and why it’s not just “normal”
• Gut-brain spirals and stress constipation
• Why your poop says more about you than your therapist
• The truth about dairy, gluten, Mounjaro, and microbiome trends
• IBS, pelvic floor dysfunction, and yes—pooping postpartum

This episode is equal parts educational, unhinged, and shockingly validating. If you’ve ever said “I’m just built like this” to explain your bloating—this one’s for you.

🎧 Subscribe, spiral, and sip your peppermint tea. Your gut (and therapist) will thank you.
