Your gut isn't just about digestion—it's the command center for your entire wellbeing. What if those "normal" symptoms like heartburn, bloating, or irregular bathroom habits are actually signals that something deeper needs attention?

As a functional medicine certified health coach, I've seen how transformative proper gut health can be. When your digestive system thrives, everything improves—from mental clarity and skin appearance to your effectiveness in relationships. This episode breaks down the fundamentals of gut health that conventional medicine often overlooks but that could revolutionize how you feel every day.

I share my personal journey with gut healing, including how an elimination diet helped me lose 10 pounds (twice!) and finally understand my digestive patterns. You'll learn about powerful testing options like the GI Map that can reveal hidden parasites and bacterial imbalances, why shopping the perimeter of grocery stores matters, and how to decode nutrition labels to avoid the 65 different names for sugar that might be sabotaging your health.

The connection between gut health and seemingly unrelated issues like ADHD, unexplained weight gain, and even mold exposure might surprise you. Whether you're struggling with specific symptoms or simply want to optimize your health, these practical approaches can help you build a foundation for overall wellness.

Curious about your own gut health? Try the simple elimination protocol outlined in this episode, or explore the testing options mentioned. Your body might be trying to tell you something important—and finally listening could change everything. Text me using the number in the episode description with your questions, and don't forget to share this episode with friends who might benefit from this information too.
