Bloating is one of the most common and frustrating gut symptoms. But what actually causes it? And why does it feel so different from person to person?   In this episode, we break down:

Are you tired of being told “your labs are fine” when you know something isn’t right?

When the scale goes up, it's easy to assume fat gain. But often, the real culprit is inflammation. Bloating, water retention, poor sleep, stress, processed foods, and even overtraining can make your body hold onto fluid and feel puffy. The good news? This isn't permanent — it's reversible. In this episode, I'll explain the difference between fat gain and inflammation, what signs to look for, and how simple nutrition and lifestyle shifts can help calm inflammation so you feel leaner, lighter, and more energized again.

What do you do when you need to create some data but you haven't built out the UI for that data yet? A seeder is a great approach, but is it always the right one? In the latest episode of the No Compromises podcast, we dive into a real project where starting with the most complex feature made test data management painful. Instead of exploding the complexity of our seeders, we built a minimal UI to manage test data. We also talk about some other unexpected benefits, and talk through the trade-offs and why detours like this should feel uncomfortable (and be tightly scoped).(00:00) - Starting deep exposes messy user permutations (02:45) - Seeder explosion vs. a minimal UI (03:45) - Reframing the “detour” after using it (05:30) - Why the mini-UI helped: faster iteration, fewer seed resets (07:45) - Dogfooding + tester debugging benefits (08:00) - Guardrails: detours should feel uneasy and stay tight (09:00) - Silly bit Need help on your Laravel project?

Have you ever felt like you've tried every gut healing diet out there — low FODMAP diet, paleo diet, gluten-free diet, low histamine diet, or a candida cleanse — and still deal with stubborn symptoms? Symptoms like... Bloating, fatigue, constipation.Skin issues like acne or eczema.Hormonal symptoms like PMS or mood swings.Or mystery symptoms your doctors can't find a cause for. If you've been relying on food restrictions to heal your gut — or hoping that cutting just one more food will finally fix your digestion, hormones, or skin — here's the truth: Food restrictions alone cannot heal your gut. Yes, a gut health diet may bring relief from symptoms, but it's not a long-term solution. If food restrictions so far have not healed your gut or symptoms you're trying to correct, then there IS no mystery, perfect diet out there waiting for you. The real issue isn't the food you're eating (or not eating) - it's the fact that you're not looking OUTSIDE of diet to the hidden root causes driving your symptoms. If you're only looking at food restrictions address the real root causes behind your gut problems, you're only scratching the surface. In today's episode, I'm revealing: Why food restrictions may reduce symptoms but never reverse gut dysfunctionThe biological reason your food sensitivity list may be getting longerThe 4 overlooked root causes that stall gut healing — even on a perfect dietThe specific lab tests that can literally SHOW you YOUR specific path to healing Healing should never feel like a never-ending guessing game of whack-a-mole. If you're ready for real gut healing, not just symptom suppression, then this episode is for you.

Nutritionist Leyla Muedin explores the fascinating link between dietary habits and sleep quality, particularly nightmares. Discussing a recent study published in Frontiers in Psychology, Leyla explains how consuming certain foods, especially late at night, can influence dream patterns. Foods like sweets, dairy, and allergens such as gluten and lactose were found to have significant effects on sleep disturbances. She emphasizes healthy eating habits, particularly avoiding food allergens and late-night eating, and suggests practical tips for improving sleep quality. Leyla also touches on how cultural beliefs and anecdotal evidence support the scientific findings, providing a comprehensive overview of how diet can directly affect dream content and sleep health.

 Think bloating is just about what you eat? Think again. In this episode of The Happy Hormones Coach Podcast, I share why bloating in perimenopause often has more to do with hormone shifts, stress, sluggish digestion, and water retention than it does with gluten or dairy. You'll learn the hidden triggers that keep you feeling puffy — even when your diet is “perfect” — and why over-restricting foods can actually make bloating worse. I'll walk you through practical, hormone-friendly strategies to support digestion, reduce water retention, and calm your nervous system so you can feel lighter and more comfortable without cutting out all your favorite foods. Hey Hormone Hotties:If you want to learn more about how you can work with me or what services I offer including those below- https://linktr.ee/TheHappyHormonesCoach Interested in being a guest expert (even if you are not in business but a woman who has a story to share) fill out the application and book an appointment.

​​If your energy is constantly drained, the scale won't budge no matter what you try, or your gut feels like it's staging a daily rebellion—your hormones could be the hidden culprit. In this episode, I sit down with functional medicine expert Dr. Betty Murray to unpack how perimenopause, hormone metabolism, and hormone replacement therapy (HRT) play a much bigger role in our health than most of us are told. We get into the real reasons behind chronic fatigue, weight loss resistance, bloating, brain fog, and IBS—and why typical lab tests are missing the mark. This conversation is your backstage pass into what's really going on with your metabolism, your mood, and your midsection—and what to do when “normal” labs still leave you feeling off. What You'll Hear in This Episode: • Why perimenopause symptoms can start up to a decade before menopause—and the subtle hormone shift that might explain your energy crashes • The shocking truth about estrogen and breast cancer risk (spoiler: the data may surprise you) • The real reason your hormones might not be working—even if you're on HRT • How hormone metabolism and detoxification are key to healing gut health and resolving symptoms like bloating and IBS Here's Why You'll Want to Hit Play: Most women are only testing their estradiol levels—and missing the bigger picture. In this conversation, Dr. Murray shares why hormone replacement isn't just about putting hormones in… it's about how your body clears them.

Today I sat down with someone I admired from afar. I knew not only did I need to sit down with her to have this conversation, but also to experience what I've seen as one of the best results for lymphatic drainage. I share in this conversation how I discovered the importance of the lymphatic system and that was actually because of my dog and also an incredible interview I had a few years ago with an expert about the lymphatic system. Since then I have been conscious of taking care of mine and being mindful of the extra little things we can do to support it.  Raena O'Neil is the founder of Lymphatic Organic, specializing in lymphatic drainage techniques and education. She developed the LO Method, a lymphatic drainage technique, and offers online certification courses in it. Her work focuses on detoxifying the body, enhancing immune function, and promoting overall wellness through lymphatic drainage.  After our conversation I got to experience it for myself and truly I have to say, there is nothing like it and I felt renewed after it. Trust me when I say, I would have no problem driving 2 hours to have a session with her once a month, which is her recommendation, unlike some others. She wants you to learn how to support your own lymphatic system at home.  In this conversation we talk about:  The importance of your lymphatic system What makes her method different Why you might be retaining water Common histamine issues What to do before and after drainage massage Balancing your blood sugar Why caster oil is so beneficial and more For full show notes and episode resources head to: https://ericalippy.com/raena-oneil/ Watch episode on YouTube Find our guest at: Raena O'Neil: Website, Instagram Certification Course Follow me on Social Media: Your Host: @ericalippy Podcast: @passionlovepursuit YouTube PASSION LOVE PURSUIT PODCASTS: https://ericalippy.com/the-podcast/

In this encore episode, we detail overlap among intestinal methanogen overgrowth (IMO), hydrogen-dominant small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (H₂-SIBO), and hydrogen sulfide-dominant SIBO (H₂S-SIBO), discussing their mechanistic interactions. We discuss methanogenic archaea, as well hydrogen sulfide- and hydrogen-producing microbes and their contributions to altered gastrointestinal motility, epithelial barrier function, and neuromuscular signaling. We detail host endogenous defense mechanisms, including gastric acid secretion, pancreatic enzymatic activity, bile flow, intestinal motility, and more.Topics:1. Introduction- Overview of intestinal methanogen overgrowth (IMO), hydrogen sulfide-dominant SIBO, and hydrogen-dominant SIBO  - Discussion of overlap  2. Intestinal Methanogen Overgrowth (IMO)- Characterized by an overabundance of methane-producing archaea  - Methane and intestinal transit- Bloating, abdominal discomfort, constipation  - Associated with irritable bowel syndrome with constipation (IBS-C)   3. Overlap Between IMO and SIBO Subtypes- Hydrogen as a substrate for methane and/or hydrogen sulfide production- Shared potential root causes 4. Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO) and Protective Mechanisms- The small intestine remains relatively free of bacteria due to protective mechanisms  - Gastric acid secretion - Pancreatic enzymes and bile - Intestinal motility- Structural abnormalities 5. Hydrogen-Dominant SIBO - Increased hydrogen and intestinal transit- Potential symptoms, diarrhea, postprandial bloating  - Different forms of SIBO can coexist  6. Hydrogen Sulfide-Dominant SIBO - H₂S and intestinal motility- H₂S and intestinal epithelial integrity- Symptoms, associations with IBS diarrhea    7. Host Defense Mechanisms Regulating Microbial Balance- Gastric acid secretion, pancreatic enzyme activity, bile flow, intestinal motility, and more 8. Gastric Acid and Its Role in Microbial Regulation- Parietal cells secrete hydrochloric acid (HCl) and intrinsic factor  - Chief cells secrete pepsinogen, conversion into pepsin in acidic conditions  - Gastric acid, digestion and antimicrobial defense   9. Hypochlorhydria - Low gastric acid impairs microbial defense- Reduced acidity disrupts digestion and downstream pancreatic enzyme and bile release   10. Pancreatic Enzymes and Their Role in Microbial Regulation- Pancreatic enzymes, digestion, antimicrobial activity - Enzymes modify chyme to limit fermentable substrates that fuel microbial proliferation   11. Intestinal Motility - Coordinated contractions propel food, microbes, and waste through the GI tract  - The enteric nervous system (ENS) and gut motility- The myenteric plexus controls peristalsis, while the submucosal plexus regulates secretion and absorption   12. Conclusion- Intestinal methanogen overgrowth (IMO), hydrogen-dominant SIBO, and hydrogen sulfide-dominant SIBO - Overlap in symptoms and microbial interactions  - Host defense mechanisms, including gastric acid, pancreatic enzymes, and motility  - Intestinal motility and ENS function in microbial homeostasis  - Hydrogen sulfide as a gasotransmitterGet Chloe's Book Today!

We've had it wrong! You're not really bloated!!   My guest explains what ‘bloated' is … and isn't… How your hormones and gut interface happen and why adding protein might NOT be the thing you need to do right now if you're not really bloated.   My Guest:  Shefaly Ravula, PA-C, IFMCP is the visionary founder of Precision Gut Health, a virtual telehealth practice on a mission to unlock the secrets of gut health, nutrition and longevity. At the heart of her practice lies a powerful fusion of functional medicine, culinary nutrition, and a profound commitment to digestive and metabolic health optimization. Using a deeply individualized approach, she is dedicated to guiding patients towards a future where gut health and longevity are intricately entwined—and where vibrant health is not just a destination but a lifelong journey.   Questions We Answer in This Episode: [00:06:57] What is the difference between bloating and distention? [00:20:10] Why stomach acid matters but also why it makes me nervous, as a practitioner? [00:14:44] What is the purpose of an elimination diet and when is it misused or misunderstood?  [00:28:03] In terms of hormones, how important is gut health?  [00:27:40] Chicken or Egg type of question: Do hormones changing influence gut health or does gut health changing influence hormones? [00:30:17] In terms of gut health and hormones, how important is protein?    Bloating vs. Distention? Bloating is a sensation, often tied to hormonal changes, water retention, or constipation. Distension is visible abdominal swelling, often worsening throughout the day.   What is Gut Health? Optimal functioning of your entire digestive system, which includes not just your intestines but your stomach acid, enzymes, gallbladder, and liver   Fix Your Gut Health, Maybe You're Not Really Bloated   Stomach Acid: Essential to digestion. Without enough acid, food isn't properly broken down, which can lead to bloating, distension, and other digestive problems.   Hormones: Hormonal changes during perimenopause and menopause can slow down digestion. Estrogen, progesterone, cortisol, and DHEA affect gut motility, inflammation, and the body's ability to detoxify through the digestive tract   Protein: With ongoing gut issues, trying to hit high protein goals can add stress to an already compromised digestive system. Timing is key — healing the gut first, then optimizing protein intake for metabolic and hormonal benefits.   What is the Elimination Diet? Helps identify food sensitivities or reduce inflammation.  Designed to be short-term and therapeutic — not permanent. Elimination diets are often misused. Done wrong, they lead to excessive restriction and fear of reintroduction.   Connect with Shefaly: Website - Precision Gut Health Facebook - Precision Gut Health Instagram - @precisionguthealth TikTok - @precisionguthealth   Other Episodes You Might Like: Previous Episode - 5 Reasons You're Not Losing Weight or Gaining Muscle After 50 Next Episode - 5 Things I Would Do If I Were Tired All the Time  More Like This – Why Am I Bloated?
