Root Cause Over Bandaids: Hormones, Mold, and the Truth About Metabolism w/ Lacey Dunn RD

from The Wellness Diaries · host Ashleigh Hubbard

If you've ever been told your labs are "normal" while still feeling miserable, this episode is for you. Registered dietitian and functional medicine specialist Lacey Dunn joins us to share her deeply personal health journey — from self-induced hypothyroidism during her bodybuilding days to battling mold toxicity, SIBO, Lyme disease, and more — and how those experiences shaped her root-cause approach to healing. We dig into why so many women are dismissed by conventional medicine, how hormones like thyroid, cortisol, estrogen, and insulin silently sabotage weight loss efforts, and why popping peptides or HRT without fixing your foundations is like painting over a cracked wall. Lacey also breaks down the rise of mold toxicity and mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS) — two conditions affecting far more people than most realize — and explains why your environment, gut health, and nervous system may be the missing pieces your doctor never thought to check. This is a conversation about asking why, not just what — and what it really takes to heal from the inside out.   Lacey's IG: https://www.instagram.com/faithandfit/   Guides & 1:1 COACHING 1:1 Coaching Application: https://www.ahubnutrition.com/coachingapplication Fat Loss Starter Kit: https://ahubnutrition.myflodesk.com/fatlossstarterkit No Brainer Fat Loss Checklist: https://ahubnutrition.myflodesk.com/fatlosschecklist Join the email list: https://ahubnutrition.myflodesk.com/x8208kqszl FIND ME ON IG: https://www.instagram.com/ashleighmariehubbard/  IG: https://www.instagram.com/ahubnutrition/  IG: https://www.instagram.com/thewellnessdiariespodcast/
