Chicago Institute for Health & Wellness

Condition

Gut Dysfunction

Bloating, reactivity, and unpredictable digestion are not minor. They change how you eat, train, and show up.

How CIHW approaches gut dysfunction

Gut Dysfunction in this institute

Gut restoration programs sequence testing, nutrition, and support, then reconnect to metabolic and hormone care when the gut is the underlying cause.

First visit for gut dysfunction

  1. 01Bloating, stool pattern, food reactivity, and which antibiotics or PPIs already happened.
  2. 02Testing only when the result would change the sequence - not a 200-marker fishing panel.
  3. 03A phased nutrition plan, then a landing so you are not on a permanent elimination diet.

Gut is often the floor under fatigue and weight

Patients told their “labs are normal” still bloated through every meal. We treat gut restoration as a program: history, sequenced food, support when food is not enough, then reintroduction.

This is not a promise to erase the immune system. If the story is celiac, IBD, or anaphylaxis, we coordinate - we do not pretend a cleanse is gastroenterology.

Questions about Gut Dysfunction

Still deciding? Start Here or call (224) 535-8707.

01

Do I need a stool test on visit one?

Not always. We order what would change the next step. A panel that does not change the plan is a bill, not care.

02

Is this a detox?

Detox here is a separate supervised program. Gut restoration can sit beside it. They are not the same word.
