In this first episode of 2026, I'm naming something that's been building beneath the wellness world for years — and has now reached a breaking point.Modern wellness has become excessive, incoherent, and deeply disconnected from how bodies actually heal.This episode isn't about tearing wellness down. It's about telling the truth about what's blocking real progress.We're living in an information-saturated culture where healing has become something people research relentlessly, perform publicly, and try to master all at once. More protocols. More supplements. More tracking. More pressure to optimize, fix, and override the body — all while calling it “self-care.”What I'm seeing over and over again isn't a lack of effort.It's incoherence.People are trying to heal inside the same paradigm that made them sick — carrying urgency, hyper-fixation, and outsourcing of authority into a new marketplace with different branding but the same pressure.In this episode, I explore:• The broken paradigm beneath modern wellness — and why more information doesn't equal more healing• How hypervigilance, freeze, and overwhelm are showing up as “health practices”• Why orthorexia, protocol-stacking, and stalled healing are not personal failures, but systemic outcomes• Why the nervous system cannot heal while it's under constant surveillance and pressure• How depletion, mineral loss, and instability are driven by environments that demand vigilance• What an ecosystem lens actually looks like in practice — and why timing, sequencing, and capacity matter• Why simplicity isn't a shortcut, a trend, or minimalism — but a return to biological realityI explain why healing doesn't happen through intensity, effort, or force — and why so many people feel like nothing “sticks,” even after years of trying.The nervous system doesn't heal because you try harder.It heals when the environment stops demanding defense.This episode is an invitation to step out of chaos dressed up as commitment — and into a way of working with the body that honors rhythm, containment, nourishment, and time.If you're exhausted by doing everything “right” and still not feeling stable…If you've tried everything and nothing seems to hold…If you're ready to stop chasing fixes and start creating real conditions for repair…This conversation is for you.I also share how I work from an ecosystem lens using HTMA and microbiome mapping — not to diagnose or override, but to understand terrain, pace support, and help the body reorganize without force.This isn't about doing more.It's about finally creating the conditions that allow the body to do what it's been trying to do all along.

339: Most people listening are already aware of the foods and ingredients that disrupt gut health, but what if I told you that the “health food” you're consuming regularly is actually causing your health issues? Today, I'm joined by holistic practitioner and homeopath Marla Pietruszko, and we talk about her personal health journey, including healing from mold exposure she experienced as a toddler, along with her gut, skin, and parasite issues, and how she healed, and how you can too. We also dive into certain foods and supplements you should avoid if you have IBS, the do's and don'ts of food combining, and other popular health fads that are simply bogus red flags. Topics Discussed:→ Akkermansia for gut lining repair→ Do's and don'ts of food combining→ Mold exposure→ Supplements you should not be taking if you have IBS→ NAD+→ Diatomaceous earth for parasites→ E. coli (friend or foe?) in the gut→ Is sea moss really good for us?

There is one question underneath almost every message we receive.Is this safe?Is it safe for my child? Is it safe during pregnancy? Is it safe while breastfeeding? Is it safe if I am sick? Is it safe after chemo? Is it safe to keep taking the supplements when my child has an ear infection?My friends, we are asking the wrong question.In this episode, we are going to dive deep into the safety of rebalancing, and just as importantly, the flip side of that conversation, which is what actually happens when we leave bad bacteria, yeast, mold, fungus, parasites, heavy metals, and toxins in the body.Most people who find their way here have tried just about everything. You have likely tried every elimination diet, tried so many different supplements, you've spent hours and hours at appointments with different practitioners hoping someone would finally connect the dots, you've been told to wait it out, you've been told it's normal, you've been told that your child will outgrow it or that your symptom will just go away with time, and you've probably been given medications that suppress your or your child's symptoms but don't actually address the root issue. So of course you're skeptical, because when you've tried so many things and nothing has truly worked, it's easy to start losing hope.I know because I was you. I was in your exact place when I was trying so desperately to heal my son. I remember thinking, if it's really as simple as his gut needing to be rebalanced, why didn't one of the seventeen doctors I took him to tell me about this sooner? And underneath that question was a lot of fear.Rebalancing is not about doing something extreme. It is about giving the body the opportunity to finally reset, regulate, and heal instead of continuing to survive around a problem that will not resolve on its own.Healing is not the risk.Ignoring what the body has been asking for is.Thanks for listening!

TALK TO ME, TEXT ITStart with a Hall of Fame shocker, take a hard turn into the doomsday clock, and end with a marketing stunt that tries to monetize compliments—this ride is equal parts gut check and grin. We unpack why the clock moved closer to midnight, how leadership vacuums and rising nationalism feed instability, and whether AI is a fresh threat or a convenient scapegoat. The headlines feel heavy, but the real question is simpler: who do you trust when every alarm bell sounds at once?From global risk to the grocery aisle, we connect big narratives to small decisions. You'll hear a clear breakdown of why packaged bread, fried foods, sugar, and certain vegan cheeses might be rough on your microbiome, plus practical ways to read labels, boost fiber, and choose less processed staples without going broke or joyless. Then we chase a surprising story: a five-year-old who expands his diet after a hypnosis session. It's a chance to explore picky eating through the lenses of habit loops, sensory overload, and the psychology of safety—along with a frank look at when “miracle fixes” deserve caution.We close with a head-tilting promo from a styling service: no compliments, get free clothes. It's clever, but it reveals how brands turn validation into a funnel. We talk personal style that actually serves your life, how to cultivate feedback you can trust, and why your confidence should be driven by fit, function, and repeated wear—not a coupon code dressed as a hug. Along the way, we keep it candid, curious, and grounded in real choices you can make today.Tell us your pick for the greatest coach ever—college or NFL—and why.

Modern nutrition advice often makes gut health feel complicated and discouraging. In this conversation, Heather shares a simple, ancestral approach to digestion that brings the focus back to whole foods, sustainable kitchen rhythms, and listening to the body's cues. We talk through why the environment we cook in matters, how modern food processing has disrupted digestion, and why adding nourishing, traditionally prepared foods can be more effective than cutting everything out. This episode offers a realistic perspective on healing the gut in a way that supports the whole family and fits your real life! In this episode, we cover: - Heather's approach to healing chronic digestive issues through ancestral eating and kitchen-centered rhythms - Why the kitchen environment (lighting, clutter, etc.) plays a role in digestion more than we realize - Shifting our mindset from cutting foods out to intentionally adding nourishing, traditional foods back in - A simple ancestral filter for choosing foods without getting overwhelmed by competing nutrition noise - Gentle first steps for gut healing using soups, cooked foods, and simple meals - The most common gut symptoms women experience and how digestion affects hormones and nutrients - Why bloating happens, including microbiome imbalance and poor food breakdown - Thoughts on gluten pauses, sourdough, and traditionally prepared grains - When restrictive protocols like GAPS or carnivore  may be useful and when they're not necessary - Why animal-based protein is often easier to digest than plant-based sources, especially during gut healing - Observing food rhythms that support digestion while honoring different seasons of life– postpartum, pregnancy, breastfeeding - The difference between meat stock and bone broth and when each is most supportive View full show notes on the blog + watch this episode on YouTube.

Is ultra-processed food making mental and gut health worse—especially for kids and teens?In this episode of **The Dr. Haley Show**, Dr. Michael Haley sits down with Lexi, a real-food advocate and social media creator whose personal journey through anorexia led her to uncover a powerful truth: healing doesn't come from ultra-processed “nutrition,” but from real food, gut health, and mindset change.This conversation isn't about fad diets, weight loss, vegan vs carnivore, or extreme rules. It's about stepping back and asking bigger questions about **food, mental health, gut health, faith, and long-term healing**—especially for young people.Lexi shares her experience being diagnosed with anorexia at 13, the harmful nutrition advice she was given, how gut health and serotonin affect mental health, and why so many people relapse when recovery focuses on weight instead of healing.Dr. Haley adds perspective for parents, families, and anyone concerned about how modern food systems are impacting physical and mental health—one bite at a time.In this episode:* Why ultra-processed food can make eating disorder recovery harder* How gut health affects serotonin, mood, and mental health* Why “everything in moderation” often fails people who are struggling* What *real food* actually means in simple terms* How to spot fake food at the grocery store* Better energy alternatives to energy drinks* Why kids and teens are especially vulnerable to food misinformation* How faith, purpose, and mindset play a role in healingThe Dr. Haley Show is dedicated to helping you optimize your health by challenging conventional wisdom, exploring root causes, and returning to foundational principles that actually work—nutrition, gut health, lifestyle, and purpose.###

Digestion changes. Bloating appears out of nowhere. Sleep feels lighter. Inflammation lingers. And no one ever told us these systems might all be connected. I sat down with Cynthia Thurlow, a nurse practitioner and intermittent fasting expert, to talk about a topic that is still vastly underexplored in women's health: the gut microbiome during perimenopause and menopause.   So many women are told their digestive symptoms, inflammation, mood changes, or recurrent infections are just "part of aging." What Cynthia makes clear is that these experiences are deeply rooted in physiology and that when we understand what's happening, we're no longer powerless. This conversation matters because it replaces dismissal with clarity and fear with context. We examine how this topic shows up in daily life: - Why declining estrogen affects gut barrier integrity, immune response, and inflammation - How "leaky gut" can contribute to bone loss, autoimmune risk, and metabolic changes - The connection between gut health, mood, anxiety, and neurotransmitter signaling - Why fiber and short-chain fatty acids become more important in perimenopause and menopause - How fermented foods can support microbiome diversity and recovery after stress, illness, or antibiotics - The gut–vaginal microbiome connection and why improving one can support the other - How chronic stress and unprocessed trauma can accelerate hormonal aging and menopause timing   About Cynthia Thurlow: Cynthia Thurlow, NP is a nurse practitioner, intermittent fasting expert, and educator specializing in women's health, hormones, and longevity. Her work bridges functional and conventional medicine, with a focus on helping women understand the physiological changes of perimenopause and menopause through a science-based, compassionate lens.

Most fitness plans fall apart after the first workout because nothing carries the effort forward. Consistency improves when each workout has a clear continuation instead of a pause. This approach helps reduce decision fatigue, remove daily friction, and turn movement into a repeatable pattern that fits real life. Momentum builds when the next step is already decided before the workout ends.

Blood work is trending — but most people are reading it wrong.“Normal” labs don't mean optimal, and context is what everyone is missing.In this episode, we break down why blood work has become a trend instead of a tool, how people are misinterpreting their labs, and why “normal” results often create false confidence instead of real clarity. Everyone wants answers from a single panel, but very few understand how to read blood markers in context.Joined by Lindsay Perry, the conversation dives into what blood work can and cannot tell you, why markers like insulin, glucose, and A1C must be viewed together, and why relying on isolated numbers leads to poor decisions. We also discuss the limitations of cortisol testing, why blood work alone doesn't capture nervous system stress, and where additional tools like genetics and functional testing actually fit.This episode isn't anti–blood work — it's anti-misuse.You'll hear a grounded, coaching-driven perspective on:Why blood work became popular — and how it's being misunderstoodThe danger of reading labs without lifestyle, behavior, and symptom contextInsulin as a missing piece in most standard blood panelsWhy cortisol is difficult to assess accurately through blood work aloneHow genetics, gut health, and deeper testing inform smarter decisionsWhy data without interpretation creates confusion, not solutionsLindsay Perry brings real-world coaching insight into how health data should guide action, not anxiety, and why context matters more than any single number on a report.If you've ever been told your labs are “normal” but still don't feel right — this conversation explains why.00:00 – Why Blood Work Is Trending Right NowBlood work has become the latest health trend and why everyone wants answers from labs.01:18 – Everyone Wants to Be a Blood Work ExpertHow access to data without education creates confusion and false authority.03:05 – Why “Normal” Blood Work Can Be MisleadingUnderstanding reference ranges vs optimal health and why people feel stuck.05:12 – The Missing Marker: InsulinWhy insulin is often ignored, how it connects to glucose and A1C, and why it matters.08:04 – Looking at Markers Together, Not in IsolationWhy single lab values don't tell the full story.10:36 – Cortisol and the Limits of Blood TestingWhy cortisol is difficult to assess through blood work alone.13:02 – Stress, the Nervous System, and What Labs MissWhy lifestyle and nervous system regulation don't show up clearly on labs.15:48 – Genetics as a Coaching ToolHow genetic testing is used to guide smarter decisions, not labels.18:22 – Detox, Methylation, and Mitochondrial Pathways ExplainedBreaking down common genetic categories and what they influence.21:10 – Gut Health, Sensitivities, and Deeper TestingWhen blood work isn't enough and additional testing becomes relevant.24:05 – Why Context Matters More Than Any NumberHow symptoms, behavior, and lifestyle complete the picture.26:42 – Coaching vs Data ObsessionWhy data should guide action, not anxiety.29:30 – Using Blood Work the Right WayHow to treat labs as a tool, not a diagnosis.32:10 – Final Thoughts: Blood Work Isn't the EnemyWhy blood work is valuable when used correctly and responsibly.⚠️ DisclaimerThis content is for educational purposes only and is not intended to diagnose, treat, or replace medical advice.

In this powerful and deeply real conversation, Michelle Patidar shares her journey as a cancer survivor and health coach, reflecting on her diagnosis of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma at just 32 years old and the life-altering path that followed. Michelle opens up about the physical, emotional, and mental layers of healing — and how recovery goes far beyond treatment. From rebuilding her health through gut support and nutrition, to learning how unmanaged stress impacts the body, to the emotional work of therapy, journaling, and identity shifts after cancer. This episode is a grounded, honest look at what real healing looks like. Together, we explore how small, consistent habits can create massive change, why community and support matter so much after a diagnosis, and how allowing cancer to change you doesn't mean losing yourself...it can mean evolving into a stronger, more aligned version of who you're becoming. This episode is for anyone navigating life after cancer, supporting someone who is, or simply looking to live with more intention, health, and joy.

Nutritionist Leyla Muedin discusses the important relationship between gut health and bone health. Leyla delves into the ways gastrointestinal disorders like Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, and irritable bowel syndrome can lead to osteoporosis and increased fracture risks. She explains how chronic inflammation, malabsorption, and dysbiosis are common underlying causes of bone loss. Leyla also reviews scientific studies on the link between the gut microbiome and bone mass, highlighting the potential of fecal microbiome transplants as future treatments for osteoporosis.

Fitness progress slows when attention stays fixed on setbacks instead of responses. Solution focused thinking keeps momentum alive during busy weeks, low energy days, and uneven routines. Simple decisions, supportive actions, and fast recovery protect consistency. When focus shifts from what went wrong to what moves forward, fitness becomes steadier and easier to maintain over time.

What if anxiety, mood swings, and low resilience aren't starting in your mind—but in your gut?In this episode of the Choose 2 Think Inspirational Podcast, host Victoria welcomes Gabe Dough, serial entrepreneur and gut health expert from Good Bru, for a powerful conversation on the brain–gut connection and why the microbiome plays a primary role in mental, emotional, and physical health.Gabe explains why the gut is often called the “second brain,” detailing how its vast network of neurons and its communication with the brain through the vagus nerve influence mood, cognitive function, stress response, and overall nervous system health. Together, Victoria and Gabe unpack how the microbiome helps produce key neurotransmitters like serotonin, regulates inflammation, and impacts digestion, immunity, and hormone balance.Throughout the episode, Gabe shares practical insights on how everyday lifestyle choices—especially diet, fiber intake, exercise, and stress—shape the health of the gut microbiome. He also clarifies the difference between helpful and harmful fibers, explains the role of prebiotics and probiotics, and highlights why many people experience worsened symptoms when gut health is overlooked.The conversation concludes with five practical actions listeners can take to begin supporting their gut health immediately, reinforcing a holistic, whole-body approach to wellness. This episode is a clear reminder that when we care for the gut, we support the brain—and when we support the brain, we strengthen the entire body.The gut functions as a “second brain,” influencing mood, cognition, and emotional regulationSerotonin is primarily produced in the gut and plays a major role in mental well-beingGut dysbiosis can increase inflammation, anxiety, and stress sensitivityLifestyle choices—diet, fiber, exercise, and stress—directly affect the microbiomeSupporting gut health is essential for holistic mental and physical wellness00:00 Introduction to the Brain–Gut Connection15:04 How Gut Health Impacts Mental Health20:45 Dysbiosis and Its Consequences26:22 Gut Health and Chronic Disease31:03 Holistic Health: The Body–Mind Connection42:35 Prebiotics vs. Probiotics Explained49:22 Introducing GoodBru and Gut Support54:15 OutroVisit www.goodbru.com and use the promo code CHOOSE2THINK for 10% off your first order!

If you've ever been dismissed, talked over, or told your hormone symptoms are “just part of aging,” this conversation will change how you think about HRT and hormones.Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) is often presented as a simple solution. But for many women, it can become confusing, frustrating, or even makes them feel worse. This episode breaks down why that happens, what most women are never told about hormones, and why HRT is never just about adding more estrogen or progesterone. We explore how hormone metabolism, gut health, liver detox, thyroid function, genetics, and proper testing all play a critical role in whether HRT actually helps or backfires. I'm joined by my dear friend and mentor, Shauna Gourley, a functional health and human potential coach who guides women through perimenopause and menopause after her own hormone crash and medical gaslighting.Tune in for a clear, honest conversation about HRT and hormones that will help you understand what your body is actually asking for, before you make another health decision.Episode Timeline: 00:00 – Welcome + Hormone Focus01:20 – Why Progesterone Matters03:10 – Progesterone vs Estrogen04:40 – Perimenopause Progesterone Drop06:10 – Menopause Hormone Changes07:50 – Low Progesterone Symptoms10:10 – High Progesterone Symptoms12:00 – Stress Drains Progesterone14:30 – Blood Sugar + Hormones16:20 – Thyroid and Progesterone18:00 – Gut Health and Hormones20:00 – Why Testing Matters22:40 – Progesterone Types Explained25:10 – Bioidentical vs Synthetic28:30 – Is Progesterone Safe?31:00 – Talking to Your Doctor33:40 – Detox Before HRT36:00 – Support Progesterone Naturally39:30 – Final Hormone TakeawaysLinks:Book a Hormone Breakthrough Call - https://calendly.com/briatheperiodwhisperer/private-coaching?month=2025-12 Connect with Bria on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bria_period_whisperer/ Learn more about Bria's coaching program: https://www.briatheperiodwhisperer.com/Coaching Subscribe to The Period Whisperer Podcast - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-period-whisperer-podcast-perimenopause-menopause/id1617315546 Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/5w8w0KbRuDwOUoBMzeFOOO YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@bria_period_whisperer

Low energy and inconsistency are often signs of buildup rather than lack of effort. Mental pressure, emotional strain, and hidden friction can quietly reduce momentum over time. Clearing resistance restores flow and makes action feel natural again. Energy returns when unnecessary weight is removed and systems replace pressure. Progress stabilizes when simplicity replaces force and movement aligns with real capacity.

What happens when your body starts changing in ways no one prepared you for—and pushing through stops working? In episode 244 of Joy Found Here, integrative health practitioner Dyna Vink joins Stephanie for a candid conversation about perimenopause, menopause, and the hidden ways they impact women's health and confidence. Drawing from her own 13-year journey, Dyna shares why this often-misunderstood life stage can become a powerful turning point rather than something to simply endure.In This Episode, You Will Learn:(3:18) A turning point sparked by caregiving and loss(4:51) Leaving corporate life to choose purpose(6:38) Thirteen years of unexplained perimenopause symptoms(8:54) What integrative testing uncovers beyond bloodwork(12:08) How hormones affect focus, mood, and confidence(15:04) Why women quietly exit careers in midlife(16:16) The four pillars of midlife health and balance(26:05) The gut–hormone–inflammation connection(38:45) Mindset shifts that unlock reinvention(44:18) One simple habit to start the new yearDyna Vink is a certified Integrative Health Practitioner and the founder of Holistic Nutrition Lifestyle, supporting women through perimenopause and midlife health transitions. After leaving a high-powered corporate career in tech marketing, she retrained in integrative and functional health following her own 13-year struggle with unexplained symptoms. Her approach focuses on uncovering root causes through lifestyle strategies and functional medicine testing rather than quick fixes. Now based in Panama, she works virtually with women worldwide, helping them restore balance, resilience, and long-term vitality.In this episode, Dyna reframes perimenopause and menopause as signals to listen more closely to the body, not phases to simply endure. She explains how hormonal shifts affect the entire system—from gut health and sleep to mood, cognition, and confidence—and why many women feel unseen by traditional approaches. Dyna shares how integrative testing can reveal hidden imbalances and outlines four essential pillars—nutrition, sleep, movement, and mindset—that support women through midlife.

This week, Tee speaks with chef and entrepreneur Thomas Odermatt about the health benefits and culinary tradition behind bone broth. Raised in his family's award-winning butcher shop in San Gottardo, Switzerland, Thomas developed a deep respect for artisanal butchery, rotisserie cooking, and a nose-to-tail approach to food. After earning a master's degree in organic farming in Zürich, Thomas moved to the United States to study at UC Berkeley, where he was influenced by the Bay Area's evolving gourmet food scene. In 2002, his pursuit of the perfect rotisserie chicken led to the creation of Roli Roti, America's first gourmet rotisserie food truck. As the business grew, Thomas's commitment to sustainability inspired the launch of Butcher's Bone Broth, an organic, slow-simmered product rooted in quality, flavor, and responsible food practices. Today, the broth is available in over 10,000 stores nationwide, including Costco, Whole Foods Market, Sprouts, and Publix. In this episode, Tee and Chef Thomas discuss the benefits of bone broth for gut, skin, and joint health, share tips for making it at home, and explore the importance of reducing food waste through mindful cooking.

If you're noticing changes in your skin — dryness, fine lines, faster wrinkling — you might be blaming age. But what if the real cause is happening… in your gut? In today's deep-dive episode, I uncover how my skin was the messenger, alerting me to deeper internal dysfunction I could only see through testing — not guessing. I take you behind the scenes of my own:

Fitness consistency breaks down when daily decisions are left open and energy runs the schedule. Clear decisions remove friction and protect follow through during busy weeks. Progress becomes stable when movement and nutrition are planned ahead instead of negotiated in the moment. Simple rules reduce mental load and keep habits intact even when stress is high. Consistency grows when actions are decided once and repeated without debate.

Have you been told that slow motility is the reason you're constipated, bloated, or dealing with digestive issues that just won't resolve?Have you tried to “treat” slow motility — with supplements, laxatives, diets, or protocols — only to find that nothing actually sticks?Or maybe you haven't been formally diagnosed, but all signs seem to point to slow digestion, sluggish bowels, or food just not moving the way it should.If any of that sounds familiar, this episode is for you.Today we're continuing the Real Root Cause Series, where I'm taking conditions that are commonly labeled as root causes — and breaking down to you what their REAL root causes are. This is super powerful because understanding a fake vs. real root cause is the difference between finding healing from your symptoms... or not.Today's topic is: slow motility.Slow motility is a common diagnosis I hear clients get from a doctor who explains that "slow motility" is why they have constipation, acid reflux, bloating, or some other digestive issue. The solution to slow motility, according to the doctor, is usually either "get used to it", surgery (when motility is bad enough), or a merry-go-round of supplements or medications designed to help "slow motility" (but that don't really help relieve your symptoms).The reason these methods don't really help slow motility is because slow motility is NOT a root cause. It's being CAUSED by something else!That's why, on today's episode, I'm breaking down:Why treating slow gut motility with supplements or medications rarely worksThe real causes of slow gut motilityHow to test for these root causes of low motilityAnd what actually needs to be addressed for motility to return naturallyIf you're ready to stop chasing new and different supplements or simply feeling like a victim to the rate your body decided to digest at - then this episode is for you.TIMESTAMPS:00:00 - Introduction to Slow Motility 00:34 - Understanding Real Root Causes 01:00 - Common Misdiagnoses and Misconceptions 02:01 - Welcome to the Better Belly Podcast 03:10 - Deep Dive into Slow Motility 07:46 - Symptoms and Related Conditions 09:04 - Root Causes of Slow Motility 13:43 - Digestive Enzymes and Their Importance 17:34 - Visceral Adhesions Explained 20:32 - Understanding Myofascial and Visceral Adhesions 21:44 - Finding a Qualified Practitioner for Visceral Manipulation 22:32 - Self-Evaluation Techniques for Visceral Adhesions 23:21 - The Role of the Vagus Nerve in Motility 25:35 - Mold and Its Impact on Gut Health 27:56 - Other Pathogens Affecting Gut Motility 29:34 - Nutrient Deficiencies and Constipation 31:04 - Food Sensitivities and Inflammation 32:41 - Thyroid Issues and Slow Motility 34:49 - Comprehensive Testing and Protocols 38:13 - Conclusion and Next StepsEPISODES MENTIONED:235// SIBO Symptoms, SIBO Testing, and Why SIBO Treatments Fail

What if your bowel movements are one of the clearest signals of your metabolic health, stress levels, and ability to heal? In this episode of the Metabolic Freedom Podcast, host Ben Azadi sits down with functional gut health practitioner Liz Roman, widely known as “The Poop Queen,” to unpack a topic most people ignore, but their body never forgets: bowel movements. Liz explains how stool quality can reveal metabolic dysfunction, poor fat digestion, dysbiosis, sluggish bile flow, and even hidden stress patterns that slow healing. Together, they break down constipation root causes, hydration and electrolytes, fiber bio-individuality, antibiotics recovery, liver and bile support, stool testing options, and how fasting can support gut repair when done the right way.   Key Topics Covered What HRV has in common with gut recovery and nervous system regulation What your poop can reveal about metabolism, digestion, and inflammation Signs of poor fat digestion (floating stools, greasy film, stool appearance) Why stress, dehydration, and the standard American diet drive constipation The squatty potty position and why it supports easier elimination The gut-liver connection: bile flow, endotoxins, and metabolic slowdowns Fiber debate: why it depends on the person, and how to increase it safely Antibiotics and the microbiome: why one round can disrupt the gut long-term Bone broth benefits and who should avoid it due to histamine intolerance Fasting: autophagy, meal spacing, and how to break a fast correctly Stool testing options and why symptoms still matter most Resources and Links
