IBS Houston

In Houston, IBS (irritable bowel syndrome) patients can often find relief by stopping yeast overgrowth in the body.

Mila McManus, M.D., a board certified family physician and the founder of The Woodlands Institute for Health & Wellness has found that yeast overgrowth, or Candida, sensitivity is responsible for many cases.

Relief is frequently found by closely looking at the person's diet and medical history. The majority of The Woodlands Institute for Health & Wellness' IBS Houston patients are assigned to a 30-day yeast detoxification diet. High in vegetables, that nutrition plan allows no bread, sugar or pasta. The purpose? To build up in the intestinal tract the natural bacterium which protects us from yeast overgrowth and subsequent IBS symptoms.

Yeast Overgrowth in the Colon Causes a Host of G.I. Problems!

Yeast overgrowth in the gastrointestinal tract also can cause several other health problems including:

• Production of toxins which suppress the immune system
• Symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, headaches and rashes
• Insufficient absorption of the food you normally consume

Dr. McManus and The Woodlands Institute for Health & Wellness also specialize in the treatment of allergy symptoms; headache and migraine headache; depression; chronic fatigue; hot flashes and hypothyroidism.
