8: How to Heal Your Gut Without a Stool ...

About this episode

Join Patreon to learn about how minerals impact digestion and basic supports for your gut!


What if you could heal your gut without stool testing or protocols?



In this episode, I map a simple path that doesn’t require labs or fancy add-ons. You’re going to learn four specific areas that anyone can use to heal their gut for good (and none of them are pills). 


The real blocker is the common state many people are in that shuts down digestion and irritates the gut lining. There are small timing tweaks that get your digestive juices to show up when they’re supposed to, and things to change first so symptoms don’t boomerang a few months later. This episode will make you re-think everything you knew about gut health.


You’ll Learn:


[00:00] Introduction

[04:20] What actually causes symptoms to come back after a ‘gut protocol’

[08:01] The reason your gut still struggles even when you ‘eat clean’

[26:21] The simple timing shift that gets your digestive juices working again

[40:05] Why blood sugar swings mess with your microbiome

[48:53] The overlooked body system that keeps your gut detoxing properly

[54:59] The most important thing to think about when the goal is to repair your gut long term
