TARGETED GI CARE

Living with a digestive condition can be exhausting. Elemental diets offer a clinically proven path to GI relief by giving your digestive system the space to rest and recover.

Media

Elemental diets can calm inflammation, support gut lining repair, and help rebalance your microbiome — with decades of clinical evidence across SIBO, IMO, EoE, IBS, and IBD.

Conditions We Support

The mBIOTA Elemental Diet is designed to support people living with complex gastrointestinal conditions. Discover how an elemental diet can help support your specific GI condition.

CONDITIONS

SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth)

Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO) and Intestinal Methanogen Overgrowth (IMO) happen when too many microorganisms take up residence in the small intestine. The result is often persistent bloating, gas, abdominal pain, and unpredictable bowel habits. An elemental diet is absorbed so early in the digestive tract that it essentially cuts off the food supply to those overgrown organisms.

How We Support SIBO/IMO
CONDITIONS

IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome)

IBS is one of the most common digestive disorders. It can cause daily bloating, abdominal pain, diarrhea, constipation, or an unpredictable cycle of both. Growing research points to bacterial overgrowth in the small intestine as a key contributor. An elemental diet eliminates food load for the digestive system, giving it time to rest and repair.

CONDITIONS

IBD (Crohn's Disease & Ulcerative Colitis)

Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), whether Crohn's disease or Ulcerative Colitis, involves chronic inflammation in the digestive tract. It can bring severe pain, persistent diarrhea, fatigue, and difficulty maintaining proper nutrition. An elemental diet supports recovery by significantly reducing the burden on your digestive system, allowing inflamed tissue the opportunity to rest and recover.

How We Support IBD
CONDITIONS

EoE (Eosinophilic Esophagitis)

EoE is a chronic condition where a type of white blood cell called eosinophils builds up in the esophagus, leading to inflammation, difficulty swallowing, and sometimes food getting stuck. It's often driven by the body's immune response to certain foods. Because an elemental diet removes all intact proteins and common allergens while still providing complete nutrition, it's one of the most effective dietary approaches for managing EoE.
