Lucie’s Story

40% of the population suffer with stomach issues and I want to help them.

Hello I’m the founder of The Gut Feeling. So rewind back to 2013… after a lot (and I mean a lot) of intravenous antibiotics following a scary kidney infection, my gut decided, and I can’t blame it, to say no to pretty much everything - including fun.

It was a super boring time of life for somebody who loves food as it was restriction after restriction when it came to diet; like prison for taste buds. It was also super boring when it came to energy levels… that’s a no to running / hopping / skipping / jumping.

After 34384 appointments with seemingly every specialist under the sun - taking pregnancy tests to each of them to prove my bloated stomach really was in fact just bloated - I took a keen interest in what seemed like the route of my problem, my gut. I started experimenting with fibre, fermented foods, learning about probiotics and, very importantly, the importance of lifestyle (especially stress) on gut health.

I’ve come a long way over the past 10 years and if I reflect on what I can do now and how I feel, it’s my biggest achievement. I want to raise awareness of gut health and help others because of my personal experience so I launched The Gut Feeling.
