Losing weight after C. diff can feel alarming — especially when you’re eating but the weight still won’t come back. Many people try adding calories or meal-replacement shakes, yet nothing changes because the real issue isn’t food quantity. It’s what C. diff toxins and antibiotics did to your microbiome, your gut lining, and your ability to absorb nutrients.

In this episode, I’ll show you what’s happening inside your gut and how to support healthy weight gain again. We’ll look at inflammation, malabsorption, post-infection IBS, and how probiotics and gentle foods fit into gut recovery after C. difficile.
