Ep 34 | The Real Root Cause of Gut Problems (It's Not What You Think)

from Strength for Generations I Lose Weight, Healthy Diet, Strength Training, Nutrition, Energized · host Christa Baker - Christian Health Coach

What if the reason your probiotics aren't working has nothing to do with the bacteria you're adding? What if your chronic bloating and digestive issues are actually caused by iron overload feeding harmful pathogens in your gut? What if the key to fixing constipation isn't more fiber, but proper bile production? In this episode, I'm joined again by researcher Piotr Slowinski to uncover the real root cause of digestive issues like bloating, constipation, H. pylori, and parasites. We're diving deep into why probiotics might be failing you, how iron overload creates the perfect environment for bad bacteria to thrive, and why your bile production - not fiber - is the key to healthy bowel movements.
