167. Heather Grzych on Removing the Root Cause

from Wisdom of the Body · host Heather Grzych

Wellness expert and author Heather Grzych explores what it really means to address the root cause of illness – beyond symptoms and surface-level fixes. She shares two compelling case studies: a nurse with a Pitta imbalance and thyroid issues from shift work, and a high-performing executive who thought he had a gluten intolerance, but actually had weakened digestion from overusing supplement drinks. Heather discusses how healing often requires simple-but-not easy changes, and what to do when the source of imbalance isn't something you can just walk away from.
