242: Finding The Root Cause of Your Gut Issues - A Real World Example

What if the reality you experience online isn't organic, but entirely engineered to control your emotions, attention, and behavior? In this episode, I expose how social media algorithms are designed to keep you anxious, outraged, addicted, and psychologically hooked instead of not informed, empowered, or free. You'll learn how platforms build a psychological profile of your mind, manufacture emotional cycles, and feed you a personalized "reality" designed to maximize engagement, division, and profit. We break down how this constant emotional stimulation rewires your nervous system, fuels chronic stress, disrupts your mental health, and even drives inflammation and disease. If you've ever felt overstimulated, reactive, burnt out, or trapped in doomscrolling — this episode will change how you see your phone, your mind, and your autonomy.   TOPICS DISCUSSED: How social media algorithsm are engineered to keep you addicted  The "casino style" dopamine hit algorithms are designed to give you How constant stimulaton rewires your nervous system and fuels chronic stress How social media disrupts your mental health and drives inflammation and disease How "doomscrolling" causes stimulation and burnout at the same time   Leave us a Review: https://www.reversablepod.com/review   Need help with your gut?

If you feel like your doctor doesn't know how to help you, it's because women's health guidelines are largely based on research done in men. The vast majority of research and clinical trials excluded women because of factors that could screw up their studies: pregnancy, hormone changes, etc. and this has resulted in women's health being neglected. This is why I brought Kaely McDevitt on the show. She's a registered dietician, specializing in hormones, menstrual cycle health, mineral repletion, metabolism and root cause nutrition.    TOPICS DISCUSSED: Why emale physiology is rooted in things your doctor never talks about (safety, energy, nourishment and nervous system regulation) Why cholesterol and fats aren't the enemy and how they're vital for your health and hormones  Progesterone deficiencies and the symptoms they bring Minerals you can't live without Gut health and estrogen balance Modern food, nutrient depletion Very simple, tangible action steps you can take right now to heal your hormones and health   More from Kaely McDevitt: Instagram: @kayleyrd Website: kayleyrd.com   Leave us a Review: https://www.reversablepod.com/review   Need help with your gut?

Have you ever wondered how to find the root cause of your gut issues like IBS, Crohn's, colitis or diverticulitis?  This episode is actually a recording from a discovery call I did with a brand new client who thought her ulcerative colitis was caused by covid but this was lightyears from the whole story and all it took was some carefully placed questions to uncover the reason she got sick to begin with.   TOPICS DISCUSSED: How you get bowel diseases The real root cause Undertanding your own history and the layers that led to a disease manifesting   Leave us a Review: https://www.reversablepod.com/review   Need help with your gut?

You need stress to adapt, grow and survive, but at a certain point it becomes highly toxic to your body, creating a phenomenon called a "cell danger resposne", which is a survival state where your cells stop prioritizing healing and shift into defense mode instead, because it thinks you're under threat. Even though this is designed to protect you, in today's modern world, it actually creates disease.    TOPICS DISCUSSED: Why chronis stress is actually a cellular problem (not just psychological) Why trauma, toxins, infections and overtraining all land in the same biological pathway of "stress" Why even the most powerful supplements fail when your nervous system is stuck in "fight-or-flight" mode Why healing isn't about doing more, but simply teaching your body that it's safe again.   More from Dr. Scott Sherr: Instagram: @drscottsherr Supplements: TroScriptions + Methylene Blue All other links, website, etc: linktr.ee/drscottsherr   Leave us a Review: https://www.reversablepod.com/review   Need help with your gut?

Stress or "distress" is obviously toxic to your body, but there's actually a good kind of stress that has a ton of health benefits - this is called "eustress" and you should have more of it in your life. This episode is all about why you should have more eustress, all of the reasons it's good for you, and how to get more eustress in your life.   TOPICS DISCUSSED: Distress vs. Eustress The measurable health benefits of eustress and why you should have more of it in your life How to get more eustress   Leave us a Review: https://www.reversablepod.com/review   Need help with your gut?

As health nuts, we obsess over calories, chemicals and sunlight, but we rarely think about two things we consume more than anything else on earth: air and water.  This is Part 2 of a two part series on clean air and clean water, and it may change how you look at every glass you drink, every meal you cook, and every shower you take. Because our modern water is no longer natural. Municipal/city water systems disinfect water just enough to prevent infectious disease, but not enough to protect you from heavy metals, forever chemicals (PFAS), pharmaceutical residues, pesticides, microplastics, and industrial runoff. Add aging infrastructure, lead pipes, agricultural contamination, and chemical disinfectants like chlorine and chloramines, and what reaches your tap is often far from clean. Even worse, contaminants don't boil out - meaning the water you cook with can concentrate toxins rather than remove them. And because your skin is your largest organ, you're absorbing these chemicals not just when you drink water, but when you shower and bathe. In other words, we no longer live in environments our biology was designed for. We drink, cook, and bathe in chemically treated water, and then wonder why inflammation, hormone disruption, fertility issues, neurological disease, and chronic illness are exploding. This episode breaks down what's actually in your water, where it comes from, why the system is broken, and what you can realistically do about it   TOPICS DISCUSSED: Why modern tap water is contaminated, even when it meets "safety" standards The most common toxins found in drinking water (PFAS, heavy metals, pharmaceuticals, microplastics) Why boiling water does not remove contaminants and can make things worse How water infrastructure, lead pipes, and industrial runoff pollute your supply The hidden health impact of chlorine and chloramines on the gut, skin, thyroid, and immune system Why showering in unfiltered water can be as harmful as drinking it How microplastics enter the body through bottled water, cans, and hot-filled plastics The truth about bottled water vs. filtered water Which water filtration methods work and which are mostly a waste of money Why reverse osmosis is considered the gold standard for water purification How to remineralize purified water safely and intelligently How to check what's actually in your local water supply Why clean water is a foundational step in healing not an optional upgrade   More from AquaTru CLICK HERE to get big discounts on your AquaTru Website: aquatruwater.com     Leave us a Review: https://www.reversablepod.com/review   Need help with your gut?

As health nuts, we obsess over calories, chemicals and sunlight, but we rarely think about two things we consume more than anything else on earth: air and water. This is Part 1 of a two part series on clean air and clean water. The truth is that your home is built from synthetic, petroleum-based materials. We're surrounded by microplastics, VOCs, air fresheners, off-gassing furniture, and chemical cleaners. Our water treatment plants pump chlorine and fluoride into municipal water systems, along with trace pharmaceutical residues, industrial runoff, and contaminants that were never part of the original design. In other words, we no longer live in natural environments. Instead, we live in man made, manufactured environments that actually make us sick.    TOPICS DISCUSSED IN PART 1 (CLEAN AIR): Why indoor air can be more polluted than outdoor air How it affects and creates inflammation How your air affects sleep, allergies and long term health The risk of indoor mold exposure The things that actually make a difference How to properly clean your air at home and what types of filters do and do not work   More from Air Doctor: CLICK HERE to get big discounts on your Air Doctor Website: airdoctorpro.com      Leave us a Review: https://www.reversablepod.com/review   Need help with your gut?

I get hundreds of messages and emails a week from people asking about gut health, and in this episode, I'm answering the 10 most commonly asked questions:   QUESTIONS I'M ANSWERING TODAY: I eat really well. Why am I still bloated? Is bloating the same thing as a food intolerance? How can I tell if my gut is actually out of balance? How long does gut healing really take? Can stress really affect my digestion that much? Why are my bowel movements irregular, and what actually helps? Do probiotics help, or are they overrated? What does a gut-supportive diet look like without being restrictive? Is there really a connection between gut health and skin issues?

I sit down with Izabella Wentz to unpack why thyroid dysfunction is so often misunderstood, misdiagnosed, and mistreated. We'll explore why most "low thyroid" cases are actually autoimmune in nature, how gut health, liver detoxification, stress, and toxins drive symptoms long before labs turn abnormal, and why so many people feel terrible despite being told their tests are "normal." This conversation is a deep dive into systems-based healing, designed to help you recognize red flags, ask better questions, and understand when self-experimentation ends and professional support becomes essential.   TOPICS DISCUSSED IN THIS EPISODE: Why thyroid hormones affect every cell in the body The difference between Hashimoto's vs labs your doctor calls normal.. when it IS NOT NORMAL. Autoimmunity and the domino effect of chronic disease The link between gut infections, parasites, and thyroid dysfunction The risks and benefits of things like Liver detoxes, the role of toxins, and why you might be so chemically sensitive Vital nutrients for thyroid function The dangers of Gluten and immune cross-reactivity Intestinal permeability (leaky gut) and how it can trash your thyroid Stress, cortisol, and thyroid hormone conversion How to know when it's time for professional help   More from Dr. Izabella Wentz Instagram: @izabellawentzpharmd YouTube: @ThyroidPharmacist Podcast: Thyroid Pharmacist - Healing Conversations Website: thyroidpharmacist.com Contact: https://thyroidpharmacist.com/contact/     Leave us a Review: https://www.reversablepod.com/review   Need help with your gut?
