#143 - Think You Have Leaky Gut? 4 Simple Ways To Fix It Fast - Part 2

Got gut issues? (Spoiler: You probably do.) Today, I’m diving into my four-step process to restore gut health—because bloating and brain fog weren’t exactly on your vision board this year.

This simple framework will make all the difference. In this episode, I break down what to remove (hint: processed food imposters, gut-wrecking meds, and sneaky GMOs), what to replace (nutrient-dense foods and the right bacteria), and how to quench inflammation so your gut can finally chill.

But we’re not stopping at food. Healing is a whole lifestyle—stress, sleep, movement, and even the candles you burn all play a role. (Yep, your favorite scented candle might be the equivalent of lighting diesel fuel in your living room.)

I also talk about why testing is crucial—because guessing your gut issues is like throwing darts in the dark. From microbiome testing to food sensitivity testing, I cover how to get real answers so you can stop turning to trial-and-error. Tune in to learn how to build a foundation for lifelong gut health—because a happy gut means a happier, healthier you.
