Gut & Digestive Health
A guide for uncovering the hidden causes of bloating, IBS, food reactions, and poor nutrient absorption.


When Your Gut Feels Off, We Find Out Why
Bloating, discomfort, and food reactions aren’t just annoying—they’re signs your gut is under stress. At Lam Clinic, we look beyond surface symptoms to uncover infections, leaky gut, or imbalances in your microbiome—so you can heal fully and feel better every day.
What Gut & Digestive Issues Might Be Telling You
Digestive problems often reflect deeper dysfunctions in the gut-brain-immune connection:
- IBS & IBD — inflammation, urgency, and cramping
- SIBO — gas, bloating, and discomfort after eating
- Candida & Parasites — fatigue, cravings, and GI distress
- Leaky Gut — triggers widespread inflammation
- Food Sensitivities — cause bloating, rashes, or brain fog
- Nutritional Deficiency — poor absorption of key nutrients

Frequently Asked Questions
Can stress really affect digestion?
Absolutely. Stress can slow motility, alter the gut microbiome, and impair nutrient absorption. Many people with chronic fatigue also experience bloating, reflux, or constipation.
Why do digestive issues cause fatigue?
If your gut isn’t working properly, your body absorbs fewer nutrients and produces less energy. Inflammation from the gut can also spread systemically, fueling brain fog and tiredness.
Do you recommend the same diet for everyone?
No. Restrictive “one-size-fits-all” diets can often backfire. At Lam Clinic, we personalize nutrition plans based on your symptoms, tolerance, and stage of recovery.
What is leaky gut, and does it matter?
Leaky gut occurs when the intestinal barrier becomes compromised, allowing irritants and toxins into circulation. This can increase inflammation and stress on your immune system, contributing to fatigue.
What are safe first steps if I suspect gut imbalance?
Simple practices like eating smaller meals, chewing thoroughly, and avoiding trigger foods can help. For ongoing issues, a personalized plan ensures safe and effective recovery.
How does Lam Clinic approach gut and digestive health?
We use gentle, step-by-step strategies to restore digestive function while respecting your body’s sensitivity. This often includes nutrition guidance, microbiome support, and calming stress circuits that directly affect gut health.

The Pioneer of Root-Cause Healing & Whole Person Care

His bestselling book, Adrenal Fatigue Syndrome, became a lifeline for patients around the world. Today, his children—Dr. Carrie Lam and Dr. Jeremy Lam—carry that legacy forward, building on his foundation with advanced diagnostics and whole-person care for lasting recovery.
