Fatty Liver Disease & IBS: Supporting Your Gut-Liver Axis and How to Eat If You Have Both Conditions

 

Have you heard of the ‘gut-liver axis’? Truth be told, our liver and gut are highly connected and one system can impact the other. So if you have Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) and have also been told you may have a fatty liver or diagnosed with Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD), then this might not be simply a coincidence! 

This said, you may have been diagnosed with both conditions, and so you feel a little overwhelmed at how to manage both of these conditions through diet changes. Well, good news – improving your gut health can also improve your liver health and vice versa! Not only is there an overlap of diet and lifestyle strategies, but supporting each system can help to improve the other.

Read my guest article with FODMAP Everyday to find out what the science tells us about the connection between your gut and liver, and strategies to support liver health and IBS through nutrition and lifestyle shifts.
