Key Takeaways: [:51] Host Ryan Piansky introduces this episode, brought to you thanks to the support of Education Partners GSK, Sanofi, Regeneron, and Takeda. [1:07] Ryan introduces today's topic, eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). EoE is a chronic, allergic, inflammatory disease of the esophagus. It occurs when eosinophils, a type of white blood cell, accumulate in the esophagus in elevated numbers, causing inflammation that can make eating or swallowing difficult or uncomfortable. [1:25] Ryan introduces and welcomes today's guest, Maddie, also known as Eosinophilic Chick on Instagram. She's a patient advocate living with EoE. [1:38] Maddie was diagnosed with EoE in 2021. She has been symptomatic for 10 to 12 years, but was not familiar with the condition itself until then. In her childhood, she was afraid of the upper endoscopy procedure, so she avoided it as much as she could. [2:06] Besides the patient advocacy that she does, Maddie is an actuary. Throughout the week, she dedicates time to the healthcare industry space in the Philadelphia area. Maddie is 26, navigating her 20s with EoE. [2:24] Ryan says he feels like being diagnosed as a young adult can be a very big shift. You're going through a lot of other changes: graduating from college, having to figure out work, and having to start managing a chronic illness like EoE. [2:46] When Maddie was 12 years old, she would have a blockage in her throat. Typically, she walked away from the dinner table and had to regurgitate the food she had consumed. [3:02] Since heading into college and becoming aware, with the pandemic, of the symptoms of COVID, shortness of breath is one that she leaned into. When she was 21, she felt like she couldn't breathe. It turned out that she was choking on food. [3:18] There was an impaction, which Maddie obsessed about over time. In addition, around the time she was 21, her symptoms got the best of her. She wasn't able to keep up with thriving, day to day. [3:31] As a child, some of her symptoms weren't normal, but they were manageable to adapt to: throwing up after a meal, here and there. Her symptoms started to pick up, and she started to lose a lot of weight in her 20s. That's when she sought a diagnosis. [4:18] Maddie thought it was related to her lung function. She started to lean toward getting diagnosed with asthma, but after testing, that wasn't clear. Her gynecologist thought it was more of a hormonal conflict. They did a lot of labs but got no diagnosis. [4:45] Meanwhile, Maddie was getting sick. As a last resort, she headed over to gastro. They didn't find anything initially. They did a barium swallow test, another lung function test, and finally, an upper endoscopy. [5:04] Maddie had spent most of the summer before her senior year of college just trying to figure out what was going on, doing a multitude of tests, and that upper endoscopy with a biopsy captured the EoE. [5:17] Maddie was able to get support from a specialist who dedicates all of their day-to-day work to EoE treatments. [5:25] Ryan says it can be tricky to figure out right away what's going on; there are so many other conditions that could be the answer. Until you get to that final diagnosis, it can be a very long process. He's glad she got an answer, eventually. [5:53] Maddie says, given the timeline of her life, a lot of people were anxious and worried about her future. [6:08] Once she was able to get that answer, Maddie noticed a lot of relief from a ton of her symptoms, once she was able to get to work on it. Maddie also had an ulcer from frequent vomiting. [6:25] Maddie had to slow everything down and be very intentional about the things she ate. [6:51] Maddie lost 15 pounds that summer, as she was trying to gain weight. Whatever she ate, she still lost weight. She was worrying about that rather than about graduating that year. [7:08] Maddie wanted to know how to register as a disabled student at her university to make sure she got all the resources she needed to be successful. [7:18] Maddie was rewiring the things she once was worried about, relative now, to what this condition has packaged with it. It was a difficult time. It taught her a lot about discipline, making sure that hard things don't turn her away from achieving the goal. [7:46] It taught Maddie about being intentional with her time and energy, what's best for her, what's going to make her succeed with whatever goal she's achieving. [8:07] Ryan says now that Maddie is properly diagnosed, he hopes she's a little bit more in control of her health. Maddie says, "Answers are the biggest power with this condition." [8:30] Maddie says that before her condition was managed, she went to the ER three times. The first time she was hospitalized, she could not keep down food for two days, so she had to get IV treatment. It wasn't necessarily an impaction, but she wasn't able to eat. [9:04] The second and third times Maddie went to the ER were related to throwing up again. [9:26] Maddie's goal was to stop vomiting altogether. She started to get serious with diet therapy, leaning into her six-food elimination diet. [9:39] Maddie started the diet the week after she graduated, just to be home and have a lot of variables controlled to try the diet, rather than cutting corners. It was really simple to do at home. [10:04] Maddie first tried cutting dairy, eggs, and shellfish. Her sister is allergic to those foods and is anaphylactic; Maddie is not. That elimination diet was helpful, but it didn't check all the boxes where all her symptoms were free. [1024] Maddie tried swallowing medication from an inhaler instead of inhaling it into her lungs, trying to coat her esophagus with it. It was effective in the biopsy results, but she was still getting sick, so she did not feel comfortable proceeding with that treatment. [10:42] All roads led to the six-food elimination diet that could reveal what the culprits were and what was causing her to be so sick. The results were surprising. [11:06] Soy was a big trigger that surprised Maddie. She consumed so many soy products. That was quite humbling to hear. That was one of her biggest triggers. [11:34] Maddie completed the six-food elimination diet with triggers of soy, eggs, dairy, nuts, and shellfish. Because of all those groups, it was really difficult for her to manage her diet effectively when going out to eat. [11:52] Sometimes soybean oil is in a salad dressing or how foods are fried, to a point where Maddie wasn't able to maintain her EoE count below 15 eosinophils per high-powered field. [12:08] With that, she started with a biologic, dupilumab. That enables her to eat all her trigger foods. An injectable is tough for Maddie as she's not fond of needles. [12:36] Now Maddie can eat all of the food groups, which is definitely a huge win in terms of her treatment plan. It lessens the impact of living every day with EoE. [12:53] Ryan says he is on dupilumab, as well. It works well for him. Maddie says she is not avoiding any food triggers, and that's the best part. [13:24] Ryan says it takes a huge mental load off when you're not having to think about whether there may be soy in what you order from a restaurant, or having to check all the ingredients at the store to make sure that you're not accidentally being exposed. [13:53] Maddie says, the best advice I would give [to someone on an elimination diet] is focusing on the perimeter of the grocery store. A lot of those foods are dedicated to being whole foods. So, I found that approach to be the most successful. [14:12] Maddie says, and still finding things that you love and can find new things to enjoy. You're entitled to absolutely enjoy food. It brings a lot of joy into my life. [14:23] Maddie says, I would specifically love traveling to a bunch of different grocery stores and exploring the allergy aisle. Everyone had their unique niche for it. So, you'll definitely find ones that are more favorable to your preferences than others. [14:37] Maddie says, but find things, too, that you still enjoy beyond just feeling fully nutritious, and strong, and equipped. You're entitled to indulge, too, even with all the restrictions that you have. [15:00] Ryan agrees there are a lot of options out there. Exploring and finding something can be really impactful from a quality-of-life perspective, just to have something new. Sticking to the border of the grocery store is a good way of putting it. [15:13] Ryan says it's everything in those center aisles that gets so complicated. There are always some good, whole food options on the edges, which is nice. [15:23] Maddie says read every food label, even if you think that you know what's in the food products. A brand of hummus had soybean oil in it. I had to retest, and it added six additional weeks onto my game plan because of that silly mistake. [15:40] Read everything, even if you think you know it. Odds are, you don't. Don't trust any label until you've fully read it and are confident. [15:56] Ryan says one of his trigger foods is rice and it does pop up in weird places. Once he was eating potato chips, but then he looked at the ingredients. Rice flour was the second ingredient! [16:33] If you're not paying attention, it can catch you by surprise. Definitely read labels. It's time-consuming, but it's always a good idea. [16:42] Ryan asks what other treatment options Maddie tried besides a swallowed inhaled steroid. When she had GI symptoms, she immediately tried a PPI, but was still symptomatic. [17:47] Maddie says, facing the hard things, getting in front of a problem, and actually attacking it with the solution, is something she consistently dismissed in her teenage years. It took a lot of effort to find the perfect solution that fit. [18:06] Maddie says, she'll continue to make sure that this is the best solution for her, as her lifestyle and needs change over time. [18:14] Maddie says, attacking things that might seem intimidating, like 360-plus days of dieting, and not going out to eat, something that was really isolating for her; it just proved so much value in her journey. [18:29] Maddie says, she is now equipped with that knowledge to make additional decisions as more treatments hopefully come out for EoE. You never know if there are more resources in the pipeline. [18:48] Maddie says, with this knowledge that I've had, I think it's equipped me to face anything new, and/or ensure that my disease is managed, ultimately. [18:57] Ryan says, there's a ton of ongoing research and all sorts of new treatments coming out. Ten years ago, he could not have imagined a treatment option like dupilumab. [19:08] Ryan says, now that we have that, and it's proving so effective for so many people, he thinks that's so exciting and so wonderful. The fact that there are more treatment options like that coming out is so exciting. [19:27] Maddie says she thinks accepting the illness, and accepting that she's not normal, and the way she lives comes with complexities, relative to her peers. It's frustrating. [19:40] Maddie says she would love to just not take my dupilumab dose and eat whatever she wants, and not have an annual visit, not do upper endoscopies, and put all this effort, money, and mind all towards this illness. [19:56] Maddie says accepting that she is unique and this illness will always be a part of her. Coming to terms with that is something she continues to struggle with, just recognizing her peers are not going through the same thing. [20:12] Maddie says her peers are supportive, but she wonders why she is different and how she got there. She's still working through that. [30:21] Ryan talks about all the small details a person living with EoE has to think about when traveling or going out for food after work. It's an extra level of anxiety that other people don't have to worry about. [20:54] Maddie has suggestions for people living with EoE: Inform your peers about your condition. Share your knowledge with your community. With their understanding, they can empower you in social situations, rather than isolate you. [21:14] When Maddie was dieting, her closest friend's family made sure she had something to eat rather than asking why she wasn't eating. Once she had to tell friends at a dinner that she wasn't eating, she was there to socialize. [21:55] The more you work towards your acceptance, the more you inform your community, the more you inform yourself, those situations will come a lot lighter. There's always going to be a new scenario where you have to explain your condition. [22:15] Maddie says, If you can get everybody to pronounce eosinophilic esophagitis, that's a huge win itself. I typically stop at EoE. [22:32] Ryan talks about anxiety about not eating at dinner. Everybody's just happy you show up and are willing to socialize. Advocating for yourself is such a good lesson to take away from this. [23:10] Ryan talks about Maddie's patient advocacy work. He follows her on Instagram. She puts so much great information out there. She also works in a professional career. [23:30] Maddie talks about balancing her activities and illness. She aligns her content with her passion, so it's a hobby she enjoys. She hopes others find value in it. Outside of work, Maddie likes to advocate for EoE. It's busy, but she's super passionate about it. [24:08] Ryan engages and advocates mostly through APFED, because they provide a lot of wonderful support. He's glad that Maddie uses her experiences to advocate through Instagram and her day-to-day life. [24:33] Ryan says it's such a great way to approach living with a chronic illness. [24:40] Maddie's initial goal was to create content so she could explore her growth in her journey. It was a diary about all the things she had done with EoE. [24:58] Maddie mentions milestones in the community: dupilumab having FDA approval during that timeline, it was exciting to witness with her community. [25:12] When Maddie was diagnosed, she found information online. The social media community is very powerful in making it real. Maddie loves APFED's content and the comments of folks impacted by the disease. It adds organic, natural reality. [25:37] Maddie says she loves sharing her story, and she will continue to share it. This isn't ending yet. It's chronic, so EoE will be with her for quite some time. Hopefully, they'll find a cure, but in the meantime, it's not going anywhere. [25:59] Maddie started her account when she got diagnosed in the Fall of 2021. She focused on alternative foods in the grocery store and dairy-free and egg-free cooking. [26:18] When she transitioned to the six-food elimination diet, she focused on recipe creation and innovation. She tried to make a deep-dish Chicago-style pizza that was gluten-free. It was a huge mess! She gives respect to the gluten-free community. [26:46] Ryan describes a poor experience with a chicken-crust gluten-free pizza. [27:31] Maddie pushes for awareness because there are more people than you think in your community who have undiagnosed EoE. Some are quiet warriors with the condition, working behind the scenes, managing it, not sharing with their community. [27:54] Between 2021 and now, Maddie has crossed paths with a lot of individuals, even down to childhood neighbors, who have the condition. It's humbling to know that other individuals are going through the same thing, quietly. [28:13] Maddie says, being able to connect and unify that community is something she wishes she could promise her 2021 self: There's a community out there waiting for you with open arms that will support you through this journey. [28:30] There are a lot of great people in this space who are unfortunately impacted by this disease. Knowing the community is there is something I would tell myself. [29:02] Ryan invites Maddie to share a message of encouragement for people living with eosinophilic-associated diseases. [29:08] Maddie would say, failure is not always a failure. In this case, it took her four forms of therapy treatments until she found the perfect one for her. Try to keep your mind open on the pathways of managing your symptoms. [29:30] It may cause you to run into a couple of failures, which is so frustrating. She has been in tears before about this, but sometimes failure brings you one step closer to success, or in this case, relief in managing your symptoms. [31:04] Maddie and Ryan discuss the string test, relating to upper endoscopies, and the benefits of a shorter test without anesthesia. Maddie is excited by the things in the pipeline for potential treatments or maintenance options. [32:06] Ryan has talked to people who have had the string test, and it sounds like a much better experience until they have to pull it back up, and then it sounds like maybe you wish you were asleep for that part. Overall, it sounds so much more pleasant. [32:21] Ryan and Maddie discuss trans-nasal endoscopies, with a thinner tube and no anesthesia. It's on Ryan's radar. Endoscopies are not fun. [34:37] Maddie is excited that there are commercials starting with EoE, talking about the condition on television. [35:21] Ryan says, it is exciting that there's so much more understanding about this disorder. There is more public awareness now. Maybe 10 years ago, you never would have known that your neighbor also has EoE. [35:34] Now people can get these diagnoses, understand what's going on, and talk about it more openly, which is really exciting. [35:45] Maddie says APFED had a great campaign in May, promoting EoE awareness. The more we do that, the more everybody impacted by this disease will win, for sure. [36:01] Ryan thanks Maddie for her work promoting EoE awareness. It's great to have people out there pushing advocacy and getting information out there.

In this episode, Beka shares why structured elimination diets can be transformative for both physical and mental health — especially for those struggling with binge-purge cycles, food addiction, body dysmorphia, and other eating disorders. She challenges the mainstream “intuitive eating only” approach used in many treatment programs and highlights stories of radical healing through whole-foods elimination protocols and carnivore eating.Beka emphasizes that the body wants to heal when given the right conditions, and that food directly impacts brain chemistry, mood, and even psychiatric symptoms. She stresses this is not medical advice and encourages listeners to trust their own experience.Why many people feel worse on intuitive eating (bloating, fatigue, anxiety, constant food noise)The mind-body connection: How nutrient deficiencies (like B12) can mimic serious psychiatric and neurological conditions, including symptoms misdiagnosed as MSTwo powerful elimination diet approaches:Vital Mind Reset (Dr. Kelly Brogan): A 30-day paleo-style whole foods protocol + 3 minutes of daily meditationCarnivore Diet: Meat, salt, and animal products only — especially helpful for severe food sensitivities, addiction, and autoimmune issuesHow elimination diets create safety in the nervous system and allow repressed trauma/emotions to surface and healThe “masculine energy initiation” of setting protective boundaries with foodInspiring recovery stories: Reversal of bipolar, PTSD, fibromyalgia, Graves' disease, Alzheimer's, brain cancer, stage 4 ovarian cancer, MS symptoms, severe anorexia, and bulimiaKey TakeawaysNot all foods are equal — some trigger inflammation, cravings, and psychological symptomsThe body can heal itself dramatically when processed foods, sugars, and common irritants are removedHealing eating disorders may require temporary structure, not constant access to “forbidden fruit”30 days can give you undeniable evidence of what your unique body needsWeight regulation often happens naturally once the body feels safe and nourishedYou are capable of showing up for yourself — this can rebuild self-trust and agencyResources MentionedDr. Kelly Brogan's Vital Mind Reset (program + randomized controlled trial on depression) - outcomes: https://www.kellybroganmd.com/outcomes?fb590fe2_page=8PubMed study on the Vital Mind Reset protocol - https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7346300/Carnivore diet recovery stories (YouTube interviews linked in full show notes)Alzheimers: https://youtu.be/uOCXQn2xJHA?si=y14LcvaDuhy6ELTUBrain Cancer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TnGVhVrXNVMOvarian Cancer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DoEmCwTMDX8Another Ovarian Cancer spread to spine/kidneys: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c5UOwyYBMfEMS: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dxw832nmMyA&t=1304sStudies - Keto:Anorexia: https://journalofmetabolichealth.org/index.php/jmh/article/view/84/254Binge Eating: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6988301/Interviews with women who healed severe anorexia/bulimia through carnivoreAnorexia: https://youtu.be/C75SjgX7joI?si=Nor67Y2xRt5V0n_pAnorexia & Bulimia: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kU0WfQCF5bwMaggie the Rancher – 65 years carnivoreSoul Huddles – Free weekly community Zoom calls (Sundays) - www.bekeaelle.com/coaching#soul-huddles1:1 Coaching & upcoming group membership with Beka www.bekaelle.com/contactI am not a doctor and this should not be treated as medical advice.

This episode explores what Scripture actually says about food, freedom, and caring for the body. The Bible does not treat medically necessary or health-based food avoidance as sin. Instead, it emphasizes stewardship, wisdom, self-control, and honoring God with your body. While the New Testament removes ceremonial food restrictions, it does not require people to eat everything indiscriminately. Rather than condemning dietary limits, Scripture consistently calls for honoring God with your body and recognizing that something may be permitted yet still not be beneficial to you personally.IntroductionIs Plant-Based the Ideal Diet Based on Biblical Doctrine?Body as a Temple and You as a StewardBiblical Mentions of Food, Drunkards, Glutton and SinPaul and the Need of Discipline, Self-Control and the Fruit of the SpiritThoughts on CommunionRomans 14, The Weak and the StrongReal Talk: What Really Matters with Faith_____EPISODE RESOURCES - Is Plant-Based the Ideal Christian Diet- My Faith Journey - Jesus and Wellness Article - Did Jesus Eat Meat Article - Stewarding the Body as God's Temple (1 Corinthians 6:19–20, 1 Corinthians 3:16–17) - Not Everything Is Beneficial (1 Corinthians 6:12, 1 Corinthians 10:23)- What Enters the Body (Proverbs 23:20–21, Proverbs 25:16, Philippians 3:19- Acting According to Conscience (Romans 14:14–23, Romans 14:2–3 1 Corinthians 8)- Self-Control as a Spiritual Virtue (Galatians 5:22–23, 1 Corinthians 9:27- Biblical Principle of Prudence (Proverbs 27:12, Ephesians 5:29)- The Garden of Eden Diet (Genesis 1–2) - The Daniel Diet (Daniel 1 and 10) - Old Testament Dietary Laws (Leviticus 11; Deuteronomy 14)- Jesus and the Food Laws (Matthew 5:17; Mark 7:18–19, Matthew 15:11)_____WEEKLY NEWSLETTER

They may not develop overnight and often come with complex precursors. Examining the role of Frequency Specific Microcurrent (FSM) as an adjunctive treatment reveals insightful perspectives for managing these sensitivities effectively. This article highlights key discussions from experts on this topic. **The Genesis of Food Sensitivities** It's essential to recognize that food sensitivities originate from several factors, including genetics and environmental influences. Dr. Carol explains that the immune system, primarily located around the digestive tract, reacts to foreign proteins after they pass through a possibly compromised gut wall, leading to what's referred to as "leaky gut." Stress, medication, and diet intricacies all play crucial roles in how these sensitivities manifest. *Food Sensitivity Testing: A Billion-Dollar Industry** Kim Pittis emphasizes the burgeoning business of food sensitivity panels. Despite their prevalence, the accuracy of these tests has raised skepticism. Instances where identical blood samples sent under different identities yield varied results underscore the need for caution. This discrepancy further emphasizes the importance of alternative approaches, such as elimination diets and dietary adjustments. **Introducing FSM as an Adjunct Treatment** Frequency Specific Microcurrent (FSM) emerges as a promising supportive tool for those navigating the complexities of food sensitivities. FSM addresses underlying issues that exacerbate food sensitivities, such as leaky gut and vagus nerve dysfunction. It works in tandem with elimination diets to enhance recovery and comfort for patients experiencing these health challenges. **Unraveling the Body's Complex Reactions** As detailed by Dr. Carol, food sensitivities often result in IgG antibody formation, leading to histamine release and systemic responses like body pain and inflammation. These reactions can persist and significantly affect quality of life. Understanding the body's complex immune response to continuous exposure to specific foods and the subsequent formation of food sensitivities is crucial. **Practical Applications: Case Examples** The narrative includes practical applications and real-life examples illustrating how FSM can effectively complement traditional treatments. By repairing compromised gut linings and modulating immune responses, FSM aids in reducing the duration and intensity of food sensitivity reactions, thus promoting more efficient healing.

GLP-1 Drugs for Addiction Treatment, Ecosystem Health Connections, and Xenotransplantation Advances

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 11-20-2025: Dr. Dawn discusses GLP-1 inhibitors like Zepbound and semaglutide showing unexpected benefits for addiction treatment beyond diabetes and weight loss. Patients in rehab report these drugs mute cravings for alcohol, cocaine, and cigarettes. Multiple studies show reduced substance abuse rates in users, with VA and NIH conducting trials examining brain activity and responses to triggers. With 80,000 annual drug overdose deaths and 48 million Americans having substance abuse disorders, these medications may revolutionize addiction treatment by dampening brain reward circuitry, though costs threaten healthcare budgets. A Stanford twin study found those twins assigned a vegan diet had substantially lower cholesterol, insulin, and body weight compared to their omnivore twins after several months, with LDL dropping 15mg, four pounds more weight loss, and 20% lower insulin. Dr. Dawn explains how a fungal disease decimating Central American frog populations caused 500% malaria increases in some areas. The fungus kills frogs by blocking skin electrolytes until hearts stop, eliminating tadpoles that eat mosquito larvae. Ecosystem collapses followed with algae blooms and snake population drops. She provides other examples showing how species losses affect human health, emphasizing the "one health" movement recognizing ecosystem health as fundamental to human wellbeing. An Australian study found people aged 70+ who listen to or play music regularly had 39% lower dementia rates, though causation remains uncertain. Princeton research shows music activates multiple brain regions simultaneously. Learning instruments increases gray matter, and musical memory remains intact in advanced dementia since it's stored separately from other memories. A caller discusses how modern screen-based activities provide less multisensory engagement than past social experiences like dances. Another caller describes Grover's disease causing persistent itchy skin with no known cause. Dr. Dawn recommends an elimination diet removing common allergens for one month, then reintroducing individually to identify food sensitivities triggering immune responses. Dr. Dawn explains xenotransplantation advances with genetically edited pigs beginning full-scale kidney transplant trials. Companies use CRISPR to disable genes causing immune rejection and insert human genes promoting immune tolerance. With only 10% of global kidney patients receiving organs, these could provide unlimited supply. Other innovations include kidneys with thymus tissue to teach immune tolerance and external pig liver systems as transplant bridges. She concludes noting research showing female dogs remember and prefer humans who demonstrate competence at tasks, while male dogs show no preference.

When Brandon and Whitney Cawood's three-year-old son was expelled from daycare for aggressive behavior, they faced a crossroads that would change not only their lives but potentially millions of others. Rather than accepting the psychiatric diagnoses being pushed on them, they discovered something shocking: their son's severe behavioral issues weren't psychological at all—they were chemical reactions to synthetic food dyes hiding in his daily allergy medication and antibiotics.Within 48 hours of removing these petroleum-based chemicals from his diet, they met their real son for the first time. This revelation launched them on a journey that would lead to creating the documentary "To Dye For," building a community of nearly one million parents, and influencing legislation across multiple states.To Dye For Documentary Dr. Roger McFillin / Radically Genuine WebsiteYouTube @RadicallyGenuineDr. Roger McFillin (@DrMcFillin) / XSubstack | Radically Genuine | Dr. Roger McFillinInstagram @radicallygenuineContact Radically GenuineConscious Clinician CollectivePLEASE SUPPORT OUR PARTNERS15% Off Pure Spectrum CBD (Code: RadicallyGenuine)10% off Lovetuner click here

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.
