Exploring the Elemental Diet: How mBIOTA Labs Founder Krystyna Houser Found Relief from SIBO
The Chalkboard recently featured mBIOTA Labs founder Krystyna Houser, sharing her personal journey with the elemental diet and how it led to the creation of mBIOTA Elemental™. After experiencing persistent bloating, rashes, and brain fog following the birth of her third child, Krystyna was eventually diagnosed with Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO). Her doctors recommended the elemental diet, a liquid-based, nutritionally complete formula designed to “reset” the gut by starving harmful bacteria while providing essential nutrients.
However, Krystyna found the taste of traditional elemental diets nearly unbearable, a challenge that inspired her to collaborate with experts at Cedars-Sinai to create mBIOTA Elemental™. This unique formula maintains the clinical efficacy of the elemental diet but is far more palatable, supporting compliance and making it easier for patients to follow the prescribed protocol. Krystyna’s experience highlights the transformative potential of the elemental diet for GI disorders while emphasizing the importance of product accessibility and taste.
