Gallbladder pain is often blamed on diet, gallstones, or digestive issues… but for many people with thyroid conditions, the link runs deeper.

On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared welcomes functional medicine dietitian and gut-health expert Lisa Smith for a deep dive into one of the most overlooked systems influencing hormone balance: the estrobolome. If you've never heard that word before, you're not alone — but by the end of this conversation you'll understand why the estrobolome may be the missing link in stubborn hormone symptoms, estrogen dominance, thyroid sluggishness, mood changes, and even men's testosterone challenges. Jared and Lisa break down how gut bacteria influence estrogen detoxification, what beta-glucuronidase is actually doing behind the scenes, why bile flow matters (especially if you don't have a gallbladder), and how fiber, cruciferous vegetables, and targeted nutrients can support healthy hormone metabolism. This is a practical, empowering discussion designed to help you understand root causes rather than chase symptoms. Whether you're navigating perimenopause, PCOS, thyroid issues, mood swings, stubborn weight, or low energy, this episode brings science down to earth with simple, realistic starting points for rebuilding gut balance and restoring hormonal resiliency — naturally and safely.Products:Precision ProbioticLiverVitality EndoCleanseAdditional Information:Pretty Well PodcastInstagramLisa Smith WellnessVisit the podcast website here: VitalityRadio.comYou can follow @vitalitynutritionbountiful and @vitalityradio on Instagram, or Vitality Radio and Vitality Nutrition on Facebook.

If you're not losing weight on keto, or you're stuck on a keto plateau, this is for you. Make sure you're not making these common keto diet mistakes... they could be the reason why keto isn't working! 0:00 Introduction: The keto diet is not working for me!0:41 Why I'm not losing weight on keto 5:35 Gallbladder, liver health, and the keto diet 10:03 Vitamin D and keto weight loss problems13:50 Keto diet facts and fictionIn this video, we'll take a look at why some people struggle with weight loss on the keto diet or experience a keto weight loss plateau.To do the keto diet correctly, you must reduce your carb intake to 50 grams or less per day, especially if you're working towards a goal such as weight loss, reducing chronic illness, increasing energy, or improving your health. Avoid these 13 common keto diet mistakes!1. Don't do dirty keto, a low-carb diet that doesn't eliminate unhealthy ingredients. 2. Poor sleep increases blood sugar values to those of a prediabetic. It also increases cortisol levels, inhibits the release of growth hormone, and reduces fat burning.3. Stress raises cortisol levels, which blocks the benefits of keto. 4. Overtraining can stifle weight loss!5. Gallbladder and liver health are vital for fat breakdown and absorption, and critical for proper thyroid function. You won't lose weight on keto until you address these issues first.6. Your thyroid is responsible for metabolism and energy. Focus on iodine, selenium, and zinc intake for a healthy thyroid. 7. Weight loss on keto starts with a healthy gut. Try L. reuteri yogurt to restore gut health and lose weight.8. Not getting enough sun is one of the most common keto weight loss problems. Vitamin D protects you from insulin resistance, and sunlight increases melatonin and serotonin. 9. The more atrophy you have, the less keto will work for weight loss. 10. Make sure you have realistic expectations and an accurate definition of normal. After the initial water weight loss when first starting keto, weight loss will vary from person to person. 11. Pair the keto diet with intermittent fasting. Eliminate snacking and only eat when you're hungry. 12. Avoid cheat day! 13. Lower your dietary fat intake if you're struggling to lose weight on keto. You may have heard rumors that the keto diet is dangerous, but this simply isn't true and is often based on poor research. Some foods labeled as “zero sugar” still contain carbs. Check labels and make sure your keto weight loss plateau isn't caused by hidden sugar consumption!

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Romey Granek, a Melbourne-based general surgeon who graduated from Monash University in 2014. With a career spanning acute general surgery, trauma, Aboriginal health, and surgical education, Dr. Granek brings a thoughtful, systems-focused approach to patient care. We explore: Why gallbladder issues are the most common cause of abdominal pain in women How women often present differently with abdominal symptoms—and what that means for diagnosis What to expect before and after gallbladder surgery Steps we can take to reduce the risk of gallbladder disease Broader insights into bowel pathology, education, and building stronger health systems Dr. Granek also shares his passion for running surgical outpatient clinics and supporting Aboriginal health initiatives, highlighting the role of surgery not just in acute care, but in improving long-term health outcomes. If you’ve ever wondered why gallbladder issues are so common—or what really happens behind the scenes in surgical care—this episode will give you both answers and practical takeaways.

In this episode, we step into one of the deepest emotional landscapes in the body, the Liver and Gallbladder system.This is where your truth lives.Where your anger lives.Where your boundaries live.Where the parts of you that were never allowed to speak have been quietly waiting.We explore how the Liver holds the emotions you swallowed to stay safe, how the Gallbladder stores the courage you never felt allowed to use, and how childhood trauma, ancestral patterns, abuse, and self-abandonment all live inside this organ system.If you feel stuck, silenced, resentful, overwhelmed, or afraid to choose yourself… this episode will feel like coming home to a truth your body has been holding for years.✨ Join my 12-week women's healing group, The Initiation of the Soul (begins January 2nd):https://thehighpriestess11.mykajabi.com/the-somatic-oracle-2

Told surgery is your only option? In this episode, Nurse Doza shares five evidence-informed actions to support your gallbladder—clean up diet, detox the liver, fix the gut, fast strategically, and use hot/cold exposure—so you can reduce symptoms and keep your gallbladder functioning as designed. Keyword: gallbladder 5 KEY TAKEAWAYS  1. Cut inflammatory foods (processed oils, sugars, most dairy; refined grains) and favor proteins, healthy fats, and veggies.  2. Support liver detox with foods (turmeric, garlic/onion, crucifers, omega-3s) and targeted nutrients (NAC, milk thistle, ALA, taurine, Bs/minerals).  3. Restore the gut with fiber-rich “gut foods,” glutamine, and consistent motility.  4. Use 24–36-hour fasting windows to improve bile dynamics and metabolic signaling.  5. Add heat/cold exposure to influence bile acids, cholesterol handling, and energy balance. The Good Poops Protocol — A targeted, gut-first bundle crafted to support regularity, microbiome balance, and healthy bile flow. By improving motility and digestive comfort, it helps you follow the diet, fasting, and liver-support actions discussed in this episode—key steps to protect your gallbladder before surgery is even on the table. https://www.mswnutrition.com/products/good-poops-protocol TIMESTAMPS 00:00 START – Welcome, mission, and how this show helps 01:30 – Why “save your gallbladder” (and why removal isn't the only path) 03:30 – Action 1: Change your diet now (what to cut and what to add) 06:30 – Healthy fats & proteins: salmon, avocado, turkey; veggies over fruit (for now) 09:00 – Action 2: Detox the liver with foods + evidence-backed nutrients 13:30 – Turmeric, garlic/onion, crucifers, omega-3s: how they influence bile 16:30 – NAC, milk thistle, ALA, taurine, Bs/minerals: supportive roles 19:30 – Action 3: Fix your gut (microbiome, motility, glutamine, “gut foods” list) 23:00 – Action 4: Fast 24–36 hours—why timing matters for bile acids and AMPK 26:30 – Action 5: Get hot & cold—sauna, shiver, BAT, and bile acid metabolism 29:30 – Putting it together: a simple week-one starter plan 31:30 – When to seek help: symptoms, labs, and consult options 33:00 – Closing recap and next steps RESOURCES  1. “Gallbladder Diet – Foods to Eat & Avoid.” https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/317196#foods-to-eat  2.

One in four adults is walking around with fatty liver, and most have no idea how much it can affect their energy, digestion, and long-term health. Now, when you combine fatty liver disease with losing your gallbladder, the very organ that helps break down fats, you've got a whole new set of challenges to navigate.Suddenly, your body has to relearn how to handle fats, which can make things feel even more complicated. Living with fatty liver with no gallbladder can feel frustrating, but the good news is you have more control than you think. That's why we're so glad to chat on IG Live with Lisa Winbourn, a Functional Nutritionist with a Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry. During this Live, we're going to discuss why it's hard to lose weight with fatty liver disease and no gallbladder, tips to improve digestion, why protein is so important, and so much more.

This FREE guide shows you how: https://drbrg.co/470t2J6The gallbladder is a small sac that sits below the liver with the following important functions:•Bile storage and concentration•Regulation of bile release •Cholesterol regulation•Antimicrobial functions•Hunger and blood sugar control•Detox support •Helps trigger the antioxidant glutathione Bile is vital for the breakdown of fats, so you can absorb fat-soluble vitamins A, E, D, K1, K2, and omega-3 fatty acids. Bile can also help thyroid hormones work more efficiently. Gallbladder removal surgery is often the result of gallbladder stones. Gallstones come from a lack of bile. People are often told the following lies and convinced into gallbladder removal surgery:•There are no other options.•A diseased gallbladder causes gallstones.•You can't prevent gallstones with diet.•Gallbladder removal does not cause complications.•Post-cholecystectomy is controversial.•Gallstones that result from pregnancy require gallbladder removal surgery. Gallstones can be caused by high levels of estrogen, being overweight, and diabetes, but one of the biggest gallbladder stone causes is high insulin!Insulin resistance resulting from chronically high insulin levels can prevent the liver from producing adequate bile and weaken the gallbladder. A low-carb diet and intermittent fasting are the best solutions for gallbladder stones. Your microbes also produce bile, so anything that destroys them can affect bile. Antibiotics and low-fat, low-cholesterol diets increase the risk for gallstones.Fatty fish has the most potent effect on bile production. You can also increase bile with cholesterol foods such as butter, eggs, shellfish, seafood, and liver. Egg yolks and liver are high in choline, a key nutrient vital for bile production. Bitter greens, arugula, radish, celery, and sauerkraut can help make additional bile salts.Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 60, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.

You'll often hear host Jamie Belz, FNTP, MHC say that the Nutritional Therapy Practitioner (NTP) program changed her life. In this fun, personal, and insightful roundtable episode of the Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast, Jamie sits down with three current NTP students to share how the program is already transforming their health, their families, and their futures. Just over three months into their studies with the Nutritional Therapy Association (NTA), these students are proving how powerful it is to learn the Foundations of Health—digestion, nutrient-dense diet, blood sugar regulation, sleep, stress, movement, and hydration. No band-aid fixes here—this is about getting to the root cause of health and disease, and honoring the truth of bio-individuality: there is no one-size-fits-all approach to wellness. Discover how nutrition and lifestyle foundations are changing lives in real time: Michlind shares her passion for filling the nutrition gap in youth who have aged out of foster care, parents reuniting with their children, and anti-human-trafficking recovery programs. Katie, a culinary pro living with Crohn's disease, explains how bio-individual nutrition transformed her gut health and daily life. Alyson opens up about her journey from residential eating disorder treatment to vibrant health through nutrient-dense, whole foods and the power of bio-individuality. Together, they open up about: The sleep stages and circadian rhythm hacks that blew their minds. Why digestion truly is the cornerstone of health—and how even chewing changes everything. The myths of the low-fat movement, the truth about fats and gallbladder health, and how diet culture has failed us. Simple, practical wins you can try today—like apple cider vinegar before meals, soaking and sprouting grains, or turning off screens before bed. What it really means to be your own health advocate when mainstream solutions fall flat. This episode is packed with nutrition tips, digestion insights, and inspiring stories of transformation. If you've ever thought, “It's all too much—where do I start?” this conversation will offer a variety of starting points as well as some of the science backing the foundational teachings of the NTA. Tune in, laugh with us, and get inspired by the next generation of Nutritional Therapy Practitioners who are already changing the world with the truth that food really is medicine and while "UNhealth" might be normal, it's certainly not the only way to go.

On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared explores why gallbladder removal has become one of the most common surgeries in America—and why it may not be the best solution. Too often, modern medicine treats the gallbladder as disposable, removing it without addressing the real root causes of bile problems, gallstones, or digestive distress. Jared breaks down what the gallbladder does, why it matters for digestion, nutrient absorption, and detoxification, and how stress, diet, and liver health all play a role in gallbladder function. You'll learn practical strategies to protect and support your gallbladder naturally, as well as tools for those already living without one. From lifestyle changes and mindful eating to supplements like digestive enzymes, ox bile, apple cider vinegar, bitters, and liver support nutrients, Jared highlights effective ways to restore balance to digestion and keep your bile flowing smoothly. Whether you still have your gallbladder or not, this episode will give you the insight and confidence to take better care of your digestive health.Products:Back on TractApple Cider VinegarWishgarden Badass BittersLiverVitalityOx BileTUDCAAdditional Information:#507: Comprehensive Digestive Support to Get Your Gut ‘Back On Tract'!#552: Grandma Was Right!

What if your bloating, fatigue, or constipation isn't just “gut-related”… but a thyroid clue?Dr. Heather Finley explains why low stomach acid, sluggish bile flow, and post-food poisoning symptoms can be red flags in thyroid cases. She shares how conventional approaches miss the deeper causes behind SIBO, constipation, and nutrient deficiencies and how gut issues can slow thyroid hormone conversion. We also touch on practical tools like stool testing, mineral analysis, and even burp tests that offer insight when standard labs fall short. Her approach is rooted in rebuilding function, not restriction.Tune in now!Episode Timeline: 00:00 – Preview01:50 – Podcast Intro02:23 – Heather's Gut & Thyroid Story04:14 – Dismissed by Doctors06:58 – Stress, Gut & Thyroid Link08:27 – Can You Heal Hashimoto's Without Healing the Gut?10:23 – Food Poisoning → IBS/SIBO12:36 – Health History Clues14:32 – Stool vs. Breath Testing15:41 – Constipation, Antibiotics, Early Gut Damage17:43 – Motility, Minerals & Thyroid19:14 – Low Stomach Acid Signs & Test24:18 – Gallbladder & Thyroid Connection27:41 – Parasites: Real or Hype?29:35 – Low IgA & Gut Diversity33:47 – Thyroid Labs That Matter35:00 – Hair Mineral Testing38:00 – Root-Cause Gut & Thyroid Healing38:58 – Timeline for Constipation Recovery40:21 – Connect with Dr. Heather41:29 – Podcast Outro41:49 – TakeawaysAbout Dr. Heather Finley: Today's guest is not your average gut health guru — she's a bloat-busting, hormone-balancing dietitian who's been in the trenches herself.

Welcome back, disruptors—today, we're talking about the body part you never think about... until it's ruining your weekend with stabbing pain and a side of nausea. Yep, I'm looking at you, gallbladder.

It's National Donut Day, but Eddie is afraid that public donut consumption might make it back to Frank. But how should he handle poor gym etiquette and an awkward sauna encounter? Ange Postecoglou is gone at Tottenham, but were Spurs right to get rid of a manager who delivered their first European success and got them back in the Champions League, even if the Premier League season was disastrous?  Plus, the Pittsburgh Steelers sign Aaron Rodgers, Kurts Adams Rozentals causes a splash in Olympic Canoeing with his OnlyFans, and the finals of Roland Garros serve up a tasty treat in both the men's and women's draws. 

Eating clean but still feeling off? In this episode, Nurse Doza breaks down how a bad diet can still sneak into your routine—even when it looks “healthy.” Learn the hidden signs your body is reacting to the wrong foods and how to course-correct using simple, powerful strategies. 5 KEY TAKEAWAYS Not all “healthy” foods are healthy for you—bio-individuality matters. Bloating, fatigue, and brain fog may be signs of food sensitivities. Bad diet patterns can persist even on whole food diets. Gut symptoms often point to deeper imbalances in the liver and gallbladder. You can reset your digestion by supporting detox pathways and microbiome health. FEATURED PRODUCT Good Poops Protocol – A targeted gut, liver, and gallbladder support bundle. As discussed in this episode, symptoms of a bad diet often trace back to poor digestion and sluggish detox. This protocol is designed to restore healthy elimination, reduce bloating, and promote microbiome balance.

Try these 11 easy health hacks to improve your health and well-being today. Stop following health fads and try these health hacks that work. From acupressure for pain relief to apple cider vinegar for digestion, these top health hacks don't cost anything and work within seconds!0:00 Introduction: 11 simple health hacks0:52 Increase CO2 1:33 Gallbladder massage 2:25 Acupressure for pain relief 4:12 Acupressure points for instant relaxation5:43 Apple cider vinegar6:23 Joint pain relief 7:29 Acupressure for headache 8:30 Sinus relief1. Brain fog eraser Brain fog is typically the result of a hypoglycemic situation, so increasing your high-quality protein intake is a helpful solution. The best protein source is nutrient-dense red meat. 2. Increase CO2Stress affects breathing and can cause you to take in too much oxygen. Increasing carbon dioxide by breathing through your nose may help with stress and also improve sleep, especially if you're stressed out.3. Gallbladder massageTo find the gallbladder, press underneath the right rib cage and massage this area. This can help improve digestion and eliminate right shoulder pain.4. Acupressure for pain reliefThe best acupressure technique for pain involves finding the mirror location of your pain on the opposite side of the body. Instead of applying pressure to the pain, you'll apply pressure to this spot. 5. Fix tight musclesBe sure to stretch the muscle opposite of the muscle that's causing you problems.6. Sea salt under the tongueThis works for weak muscles and can also work for fatigue.7. Neck pain relief for instant relaxationA relaxed neck is vital for good sleep. For neck pain relief, apply pressure at the base of the hairline for instant relaxation. Apply pressure to this spot for about 2 minutes.8. Apple cider vinegarCombine 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar with 3 to 4 ounces of water. Wait about 2 minutes and drink one more! This helps digestion and triggers the pancreas and gallbladder to release digestive juices.9. Joint pain relief exercises Joint pain typically stems from a problem with your fascia—the connective tissue that covers the entire body. Stretching the fascia on the opposite side of the pain can often provide joint pain relief. 10. Headache pain relief Headaches often stem from past head injuries. Acupressure can provide headache pain relief if you apply pressure around the painful area. 11. Sinus relief Acupressure massage can provide instant relief for any type of breathing problem, such as sleep apnea, a deviated septum, and sinus problems.

Story at-a-glance Gallbladder removal surgery leads to constant bile dripping into your intestines, making fat digestion unpredictable and often causing diarrhea, gas, and bloating Up to 40% of people experience post-cholecystectomy syndrome, with symptoms like nausea, upper abdominal pain, and digestive distress lasting for months or longer Bile reflux is common after gallbladder surgery and causes burning discomfort and heartburn, especially if you eat large or high-fat meals Retained gallstones in the bile ducts might still form after surgery, leading to infections, pain, and the need for additional medical intervention Eating small, low-fat meals, introducing soluble fiber, staying well-hydrated, and watching for serious symptoms are key to easing digestive problems and supporting long-term recovery

In this episode of the Gutsy Health Podcast, Dr. Rodgers and Juanique Grover unpack the powerful connection between liver health and hormone balance — and why true healing starts far upstream. They explain the "order of healing" (mindset → mitochondria → gut → liver → hormones) and why treating hormone issues without addressing liver health leads to more problems down the line. You'll learn how CIRS impacts mitochondria and hormone production, why the liver is crucial for hormone detoxification, and how sugar, insulin resistance, and gallbladder dysfunction tie into it all. They also break down why traditional lab ranges often miss liver stress, why cholesterol is a key liver marker, and how healing your liver is foundational for restoring energy, brain function, fertility, and overall vitality.Helpful LinksTake the Root Cause Quiz to uncover hidden imbalances.Explore the Liver Reset Program to deeply support liver health.Free Detox Class: https://www.mygutsyhealth.com/detoxKey TakeawaysHormones are a symphony; imbalance creates dysfunction.True healing order: mindset → mitochondria → gut → liver → hormones.The liver is essential for detoxifying and converting hormones.CIRS severely disrupts mitochondrial energy and hormone balance.Signs of liver dysfunction: fatigue, mood swings, skin issues, heavy periods, brain fog.Proper nutrient absorption is critical for liver and hormone health.Cholesterol (made in the liver) is the backbone for hormone production.High LDL and insulin resistance often signal liver distress.High fructose consumption (especially from processed foods) damages liver function.Gallbladder health is critical for fat digestion and hormonal support.Post-gallbladder removal: ox bile supplementation is important.Healing liver and gut health leads to natural hormone balance — without relying solely on bioidentical hormones.Optimal lab ranges (not just "normal") are key for assessing liver and hormone health.Episode TitlesThe Hormonal Symphony: Finding BalanceHealing Order: Mindset to Liver HealthLiver's Role in Hormonal HarmonyCholesterol: The Hormone PrecursorCIRS: The Hidden Factor in Hormone HealthChapters00:00 — The Symphony of Hormones03:01 — Understanding the Order of Healing06:10 — The Role of the Liver in Hormone Health09:02 — Cholesterol, Hormones, and Liver Function12:06 — CIRS and Its Impact on Hormones14:56 — Symptoms of Liver and Hormone Dysfunction17:57 — The Importance of Balance in Hormone Treatment23:08 — Understanding Liver Enzymes and GGT26:04 — The Role of Insulin and Cholesterol in Liver Health30:48 — The Impact of Sugar and Fructose on Liver Function35:10 — Recognizing Liver Stress and Functionality37:39 — Gallbladder Health and Its Importance46:01 — Balancing Hormones for Optimal HealthLove what you're hearing?If you enjoyed this episode of the Gutsy Health Podcast, please take a moment to rate and review the show!
