IRRITABLE BOWEL SYNDROME

IBS Is a Label for Symptoms Nobody Investigated Properly

Bloating, cramping, urgency, alternating diarrhea and constipation. You we’re told it is IBS and handed a pamphlet on stress management. But IBS is a description, not a diagnosis.

IBS IS NOT A FINAL

Being Told You Have IBS Means Nobody Found the Real Problem Yet

IBS is a diagnosis of exclusion. That means your doctor ruled out the things they tested for and gave your remaining symptoms a name. It does not mean nothing is wrong. It means the right tests we're not run. SIBO, dysbiosis, food sensitivities, bile acid malabsorption, intestinal permeability, and parasitic.
SIBO is present in up to 78% of patients diagnosed with IBS
Unidentified food sensitivities fuel chronic intestinal inflammation
Gut permeability allows particles into your bloodstream daily

WHAT IBS ACTUALLY MEANS

The Treatable Conditions Hiding Behind an IBS Diagnosis

When a gastroenterologist says IBS, they are describing a pattern of symptoms. They are not identifying a mechanism. The mechanisms that produce those symptoms are numerous, testable, and addressable. The question is not whether you have IBS. The question is what is causing the symptoms that earned you the label.

Gut Health

Your Digestive System and How It Works

An evidence based overview of how your digestive system works, from the NIDDK, and why gut health is foundational to overall wellness.

Bacterial overgrowth in the small intestine produces gas, bloating, and altered motility that defines the IBS experience.

IgG-mediated food reactions create delayed inflammatory responses that are invisible on standard allergy panels.

A compromised gut barrier allows food particles and bacterial endotoxins into the bloodstream, driving systemic inflammation.

The Conditions Behind IBS Do Not Resolve on Their Own

Your Digestive System and How It Works
An evidence based overview of how your digestive system works, from the NIDDK, and why gut health is foundational to overall wellness.
TEST, DON'T GUESS

You Deserve a Diagnosis, Not a Label

If your IBS workup consisted of a colonoscopy, basic blood work, and a shrug, you did not receive a thorough investigation. Our approach includes SIBO breath testing, comprehensive stool analysis mapping your entire microbiome, food sensitivity panels, intestinal permeability markers, and comprehensive stool analysis to identify the root of your symptoms.

My husband and I have been going to Nepute Wellness for 9 years and it’s our 1 stop shop. Anything we need the staff and Dr Nepute are on it and providing the best care ever. I highly recommend them to family, friends etc…….we drive an hour and 15 minutes to see him. But it is worth it! Wish I knew about chiropractic care when my kids were little. ❤️❤️☺️

Dr. Nepute and his staff are TOP NOTCH! They are extremely knowledgeable and always happy and friendly. If you want to get to the root of your issues and not just put a bandage on it, this is the place to go. I would drive 2 hours just to go there! I have been to other chiropractors and they just want to push you through. You come here, you get 3/4 different activities to loosen you up before even seeing a doctor. They do it right! They want to fix you!

Our whole family loves The Nepute Wellness center. It’s been 8 years we have been getting treatment here. It’s kept us healthy & helped my chronic pain more than anything I’ve ever done. We all highly recommend them. ✨️ ✨️ ✨️ Edit after reading reviews as a person with nothing to gain here I would like to add. Dr. Nepute is not for everyone. I can see why some may not like him. He only speaks the truth & that is hard to hear when you’re not ready. However if you are ready to take your life back, make some real changes in your health I would really suggest making an appointment to see for yourself before you listen to the naysayers. This office helped me take control of my health for the first time in my life I am not a slave to big h ar ma. My only hope is everyone finds the help they need to live a great life! God bless

The staff here is wonderful. They have shown me a lot of compassion and helped me very much. It is costly but when I think of the value of mobility, having a healthy life, and living without pain, it is surely worth it to invest my time and resources. They work with clients to make it financially possible. Here they care for the whole person, offering encouragement and kindness along with physical care. I am thankful to everyone who recommended them to me and I believe my health and life will only get better in the future with their help.
