Possible causes of abdominal cramps

Abdominal cramps often accompany other digestive symptoms, such as diarrhea, constipation, or bloating. They may be related to irritable bowel syndrome, food intolerance, or a digestive disorder such as SIBO.

Our clinical approach to abdominal cramps

Our approach begins with a thorough evaluation of your digestive history and the symptoms that accompany your cramping. Our nutritionists ask specific clinical questions, often different from those asked by other professionals, to pinpoint the likely cause before building a personalized action plan.

Over time, monitoring allows the approach to be adjusted in line with the evolution of your symptoms.

Frequently asked questions

When should abdominal cramps be a cause for concern?

Frequent, intense cramps accompanied by fever, blood in the stool, or involuntary weight loss require prompt medical attention. For recurring cramps without warning signs, a nutritional assessment can help identify the cause.

Are abdominal cramps related to diet?

In some cases, yes. Certain foods or eating habits can trigger or exacerbate cramps in sensitive individuals. A personalized assessment allows us to identify your triggers.
