The Gut-Healing Mistakes Almost Everyone Makes l Why Chasing Foods, Supplements & Symptoms Can Keep You Stuck, Plus Root Cause Strategies to Optimize Your Leaky Gut & Microbiome

from Renee Belz & Lauren Sambataro · host Biohacker Babes

If you’ve done all the “right” things for your gut, eating clean, avoiding gluten, taking supplements, running labs, and still feel like your gut health stinks, this episode is for you. We’re challenging the idea that your gut is something you need to “fix” and exploring why symptoms like bloating, constipation, diarrhea, and gas may actually be signals rather than signs that something is broken. We zoom out to look at the gut as part of a much bigger web involving the brain, nervous system, hormones, immune system, stress, sleep, and circadian rhythm, and we share simple strategies that can help support your body without adding another complicated protocol to your life. Our goal is to help you stop chasing symptoms, start listening to your body, and build resilience from the inside out.SHOW NOTES:0:38 Welcome to the show!3:03 Why your gut isn’t broken6:09 Limbic Retraining8:48 Underlying stressors to the gut9:24 Spider web analogy11:15 Simple hack to sync your gut rhythms14:28 Overnight fasting15:32 Perimenopausal & bloated16:31 Gut Healing Framework18:11 Basic elimination foods19:02 Regulating the stress response19:28 Renee’s gut story21:15 How to support digestion27:30 The many types of trauma 30:18 Food Therapy31:15 Repairing the gut lining & microbiome32:56 “Party in my stomach”35:02 Supplements for gut healing37:50 The acid reflux myth43:22 Supporting motility & bowel movements47:00 Diagnostic lab testing49:50 Triggers for leaky gut57:30 Allergies vs Intolerances vs Sensitivities1:01:29 Elimination Diet1:03:41 Can you over-optimize your gut?1:05:21 Recapping the frameworkRESOURCES:Fullscript Gut Supplements (must create an account to access)Biohacker Babes Gut Healing Framework E-book (FREE until Sept 14)Primal Trust - code: BIOHACKERBABES10FREE Nervous System Harmony e-bookBook: Food TherapyPodcast with Luis MojicaSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/biohacker-babes-podcast/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands
