In this live Q&A episode of The Health Revival Show, Liz and Becca break down some of the most common questions they’re seeing in functional medicine today—from chronic constipation to hormone therapy side effects. They dive deep into topics like redundant colon (elongated colon) and why it’s often blamed for constipation when the real causes may be microbiome imbalance, bile flow issues, hormones, or nervous system dysfunction. You’ll also learn why heartburn can appear after starting hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and why the hormones themselves are rarely the root problem. Instead, digestive weaknesses like low stomach acid, poor bile flow, or microbiome imbalances may be the real driver. The episode also covers teen digestive issues, exploring how puberty, estrogen fluctuations, stress, and poor digestion habits can create stomach pain after eating. Finally, Liz and Becca answer a key question about DHEA, cortisol, and adrenal health, explaining how hormone therapy influences the stress response and why supporting adrenal function is still essential. *** CONNECT: 🏆 Work With Us: Revive & Thrive Program 🔗 Connect With Liz: Instagram | TikTok | YouTube 🔗 Connect With Becca: Instagram | TikTok | YouTube 🇺🇸 Private Community: FitMom Society ▶️ Have Questions?

What if boosting dopamine didn’t require medication? In this episode of The Health Revival Show, Liz & Becca sit down with Thomas Wilkinson, founder of NeuroNova, to discuss a fascinating new technology designed to stimulate dopamine naturally. After the global spike in anxiety, depression, addiction, and sleep disorders following COVID, researchers have been searching for non-pharmaceutical solutions to regulate brain chemistry. Enter the NeuroNova Dopamine Chair. Using targeted vibration along the spine, the device stimulates mechanoreceptors that signal the brain to release dopamine — increasing levels to 200% of baseline for several hours. If you’ve ever struggled with anxiety, burnout, addiction recovery, poor sleep, or that “flat” feeling where nothing excites you anymore, this conversation may change how you think about mental health. This episode explores one of the most intriguing emerging tools in neuromodulation and dopamine regulation.   Connect with Thomas - Instagram Check out the Dopamine Chair Use Code: "fitmom" for 10% off *** CONNECT: 🏆 Work With Us: Revive & Thrive Program 🔗 Connect With Liz: Instagram | TikTok | YouTube 🔗 Connect With Becca: Instagram | TikTok | YouTube 🇺🇸 Private Community: FitMom Society ▶️ Have Questions?

Gastroparesis is often labeled as a stomach disorder, but the real cause may be far more complex. In this episode of The Health Revival Show, we break down the functional root causes behind delayed gastric emptying, including vagus nerve dysfunction, gut-brain signaling problems, dysbiosis, bile flow issues, and chronic stress. Many people diagnosed with gastroparesis actually have whole-gut motility dysfunction affecting the stomach, small intestine, and colon. We cover: -What gastroparesis actually is -Why slow digestion is often a gut-brain disorder/p> -The role of the vagus nerve and nervous system/p> -How SIBO, H. pylori, and dysbiosis worsen symptoms/p> -Why bile flow and liver function affect digestion/p> -How GLP-1 medications can trigger severe bloating and constipation/p> -The connection between stress, inflammation, and gut motility/p> If you struggle with bloating, nausea, constipation, slow digestion, or unexplained gut symptoms, this episode explains what may actually be happening in your body. *** CONNECT: 🏆 Work With Us: Revive & Thrive Program 🔗 Connect With Liz: Instagram | TikTok | YouTube 🔗 Connect With Becca: Instagram | TikTok | YouTube 🇺🇸 Private Community: FitMom Society ▶️ Have Questions?
