Naturopathic Digestive Health Support

Root-cause care for digestive concerns that don’t resolve on their own.

Digestive symptoms are common — but that doesn’t make them normal. If you're experiencing persistent bloating, irregular bowel movements, discomfort after meals, or food sensitivities that seem to worsen over time, your body is asking for deeper support.

At Beam Health, we offer comprehensive naturopathic care for a wide range of gut-related concerns. We use a systems-based approach that investigates not only what’s happening in your digestive tract, but also how your nervous system, hormones, immune system, and lifestyle contribute to gut function.

Digestive Conditions We Commonly Treat

We support patients with chronic and complex digestive symptoms.

Functional Testing We May Use

Depending on your symptoms and history, we may recommend:

  • GI stool analysis to assess microbiome, inflammation, digestion, and pathogens

  • SIBO breath testing

  • Food sensitivity testing or guided elimination trials

  • Bloodwork to evaluate nutrient status, thyroid health, and inflammatory markers

  • Targeted probiotics and gut-healing nutrients (e.g., L-glutamine, zinc carnosine)

  • Nervous system regulation to support gut-brain communication

  • Support for motility and regular bowel movements

  • Reintroduction strategies to support food tolerance and long-term success

    Testing allows us to tailor treatment and avoid unnecessary restriction or trial-and-error.

    • Bloating, distension, or gas after meals

    • Constipation, diarrhea, or alternating patterns

    • IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome)

    • SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth)

    • GERD / Acid reflux / Heartburn

    • Candida or yeast overgrowth

    • Leaky gut / Intestinal permeability

    • Post-infectious gut symptoms (post-antibiotics, food poisoning, or travel)

    • Food sensitivities and intolerances

    • Gut-related skin or hormonal concerns

    If you’ve been told “everything is fine” or labeled with IBS without further investigation, we take a deeper, more functional approach to uncover what’s actually driving your symptoms.

Why Gut Health Is Foundational

Your digestive system plays a central role in:

  • Nutrient absorption and energy production

  • Hormonal metabolism (e.g., estrogen clearance, thyroid activation)

  • Immune system function (70% of your immune tissue is in the gut)

  • Skin clarity and inflammation

  • Mental health and neurotransmitter production (via the gut-brain axis)

    When gut function is compromised, it impacts more than digestion. That’s why we look at the bigger picture.
