Your Gut Is the Foundation of Your Health
The gut is often called the 'second brain' — and for good reason. It houses 70% of your immune system, produces most of your serotonin, and directly influences your hormones, energy, mood, and weight. When gut function breaks down, the effects ripple through every system in your body.
Dr. Teresa Rispoli takes a root-cause functional medicine approach to gut health. Rather than masking symptoms with antacids or laxatives, we run comprehensive functional testing to identify exactly what is driving your digestive dysfunction — and build a personalized healing protocol to correct it.
Gut Conditions Dr. Rispoli Addresses
Leaky Gut Syndrome
Intestinal permeability that allows toxins and undigested food particles into the bloodstream, triggering systemic inflammation.
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
Chronic abdominal pain, bloating, cramping, diarrhea, and constipation driven by gut-brain axis dysfunction and microbiome imbalance.
SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth)
Excess bacteria in the small intestine causing bloating, gas, malabsorption, and nutrient deficiencies.
Candida Overgrowth
Fungal dysbiosis causing brain fog, sugar cravings, fatigue, skin issues, and chronic digestive distress.
Food Sensitivities
Delayed immune reactions to foods that cause inflammation, bloating, joint pain, skin issues, and weight gain.
Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis managed through functional nutrition, gut healing protocols, and targeted supplementation.
Acid Reflux / GERD
Chronic heartburn and reflux often caused by low stomach acid, H. pylori infection, or hiatal hernia — addressed at the root cause.
Gut-Brain Axis Dysfunction
Anxiety, depression, and brain fog driven by gut microbiome imbalances and impaired neurotransmitter production.
Do You Recognize These?
Signs Your Gut Needs Attention
Experiencing 3 or more of these symptoms? You may have underlying gut dysfunction. A free discovery call with Dr. Rispoli can help identify the root cause.
Advanced Functional Testing
We Find What Others Miss
Standard gastroenterology testing often comes back 'normal' even when patients are suffering. Functional medicine uses advanced diagnostic tools that look deeper — at the microbiome, intestinal permeability, digestive enzyme function, and immune reactivity — to find the real drivers of your symptoms.
Comprehensive Stool Analysis
Evaluates gut microbiome diversity, pathogenic bacteria, parasites, yeast overgrowth, digestive enzyme function, and intestinal inflammation markers.
Intestinal Permeability (Leaky Gut) Test
Measures zonulin and other markers of gut barrier integrity to confirm or rule out leaky gut syndrome.
SIBO Breath Test
Non-invasive hydrogen and methane breath testing to detect small intestinal bacterial overgrowth.
96-Panel Food Sensitivity Test
IgG and IgA immune reactivity testing against 96 common foods to identify hidden dietary triggers driving inflammation and gut dysfunction.
H. Pylori Testing
Detects Helicobacter pylori infection, a common cause of gastritis, ulcers, acid reflux, and nutrient malabsorption.
Organic Acids Test (OAT)
Urine-based test revealing yeast and bacterial overgrowth, mitochondrial function, neurotransmitter metabolism, and nutritional deficiencies.

What's Included
The 6-Week Gut Fix Program
Got Gas, bloating, constipation, or diarrhea? Can't lose weight? Have unrelenting fatigue and brain fog? Our GUT FIX PROGRAM is a 6-week commitment designed to find and fix the root cause of your digestive distress — not just mask the symptoms. By the end of 6 weeks you will be transformed.
Initial Wellness Consultation
A one-hour in-depth consultation to analyze your diet, lifestyle, symptoms, and health history to build your personalized gut-healing plan.
6 Weekly Follow-Up Consultations
Thirty-minute weekly sessions to analyze and correct diet, lifestyle, and supplement protocols to address the underlying root issues.
6 Weekly Colon Hydrotherapy Sessions
Six weekly colonics to detoxify, reduce gas and bloating, aid in weight loss, and restore gut microbiome balance. (Optional)
Functional Lab Testing (Optional)
Lab tests are offered but not included. They are strongly recommended to identify specific pathogens, imbalances, and deficiencies driving your symptoms.
Lymphatic Drainage (Add-On)
Often coupled with this program for added immune benefits. Lymphatic drainage relieves painful swelling, improves circulation, and flushes toxins from the lymph.
Colon Hydrotherapy / Colonics
In conjunction with colon cleansing and detoxification products, colon hydrotherapy is an effective way to detoxify, reduce gas and bloating, aid in weight loss, and help you feel and look your best.
Coffee infusions help with liver detoxification. Probiotic infusions help to restore gut microbiome balance.
Colonic Prep Instructions
- Don't eat or drink one hour prior to your appointment.
- If you have constipation issues: stop eating nuts, nut butters, hard cheeses, and gas-forming foods like onions, cabbage, garlic, broccoli, and cauliflower for a few days before to reduce discomfort.
- Take a fiber supplement with 8 oz of water for 2–3 days before to add moisture to your stool and facilitate easy evacuations.
- Drink half your weight in ounces of water daily. This will facilitate better releases and decrease discomfort.
If you need to cancel, please call or text 24 hours in advance: (818) 523-1295. The main line (818) 707-3126 is a landline.
Benefits of Adding Lymphatic Drainage
Lymphatic drainage provides relief from painful swelling and supports the immune system. It improves circulation and moves lymph toxins out — reducing edema, swelling, inflammation, and post-surgical pain.
