We Don’tJust Calm Symptoms. We Unlock What IBS Forced You to Restrict.
Not as concepts—as a coordinated, physician-guided system designed to work together.
Dr. Leybelis believes the current healthcare system often treats digestive symptoms in isolation, leaving important gaps in care.
Because in IBS, the mind-gut connection isn't optional - it's foundational.
Our mindset pillar draws from research in neuroplasticity, heart rate variability (HRV), and heart coherence principles. Dr. Leybelis participated in the Inner Health Coalition, a network of medical professionals exploring the integration of meditation and mindfulness tools by the work of Dr. Joe Dispenza into conventional healthcare.
These tools are incorporated thoughtfully and alongside evidence based medical care.
As a registered dietitian, I’ve spent years supporting individuals who want to feel better in their bodies but are often overwhelmed by conflicting nutrition advice and one-size-fits-all wellness trends.
I began to see a clear pattern: gut health and long-term wellbeing are rarely shaped by just one food or one habit. Digestive function, dietary patterns, metabolic health, and daily lifestyle choices all influence how people feel—but these pieces are often addressed in isolation.
Through my clinical work, education, and experience in corporate wellbeing, I began to build an approach centered on practical, evidence-based nutrition that is both inclusive and sustainable.
My goal is to help people move beyond confusion and restriction toward a clearer, more supportive path to digestive health and overall wellbeing.

Featured in the New York Post, Dr. Leybelis Padilla shares a practical colonoscopy “behind-the-scenes” tip—prep isn’t always perfect, so plan to head home and reset after the procedure—while reinforcing that screening helps prevent colorectal cancer.

Millions have cut out bread thinking gluten is the culprit—but a recent Fox News report featuring Dr. Leybelis Padilla explains that for many people, symptoms may be driven more by other factors.

Your gut thrives on balance—not overload. In Parade, Dr. Leybelis breaks down why processed meats can be tough on digestion, describing how they can “stress” the gut ecosystem by fueling inflammation.

In a Newsweek feature, Dr. Leybelis Padilla shares three practical, natural ways to support gut health—focusing on fiber-forward eating, stress regulation (rest-and-digest tools like breathing/meditation), and movement as a daily “gut tune-up.”

It’s easy to feel lost in the vast wilderness that is stomach—or more accurately, abdominal—pain. But doctors have learned to read our midsection like a map. As they say, it’s all about location, location, location.
Ok, so supplements are all the rage these days and it always feels like someone is trying to sell you something. On top of that, you can’t even walk out of a health food store without being bombarded with aisles of options for supplements, leaving you feeling with the FOMO (fear of missing out) on some health benefit.
When you have inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) such as Crohn’s or ulcerative colitis, there’s already so much going on in your life and you are likely already taking many medications, that adding more pills just doesn’t sound like fun. Thankfully, there really aren’t that many supplements you should actually be taking. Especially, when you’re thinking about taking supplements within the realms of what the science shows is of most benefit.
But I get this question ALL.THE.TIME from patients about what supplements they should be taking. And then the next question is where they should be getting them. Because these are all available over the counter, for a long time, I would just hand people a list and say “good luck”! That was before I realized so many supplements out there are not tested for quality/purity and there are even “fake” products out there, including on big websites like Amazon.
So I have made a list and also have a link for you to be able to access high grade products that have been tested by third party organizations to validate their quality.
Here is my list of recommended supplements that almost all patients with Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) should be taking to optimize their health. These are science backed with good evidence to support their use.
As a note, it’s always a good idea to notify your Gastroenterologist that you want to take these and ask them if there is any reason not to. Sometimes you may need higher dosing and/or different formulations depending on your needs. But these are basic recommendations that are safe for most patients.
