Welcome back to The Simplicity Sessions, I’m delighted that you’ve joined us today. My name is Jenn Pike, your host, registered holistic nutritionist, medical exercise specialist, the best-selling author of the Simplicity Project, and the creator of the women’s revolutionary health program, The Hormone Project.

In today’s episode, I am going to chat about the possibility that your gut could be the root of some of those hormonal issues that are giving you problems with your health. We may always blame our hormones if we feel that something is wrong, but it is not actually the problem most of the time.

Learn more about what we can do to know if there is something wrong with our body and how to treat it.

If you have a question for me and my team, send it over to hello@jennpike.com or via Instagram at @jennpike and I’ll do my best to share helpful insights, thoughts and advice.

Here are the main topics of today’s episode:

  • Run tests
  • Eliminating
  • Estrobolome
  • Prebiotic foods
  • Are you having daily bowel movements?
  • Start to think about the food that you’re eating

Quotes –

  • “If your elimination pathways are sluggish, if they’re moving too quickly, if you aren’t pooping and clearing toxins on a regular basis, you aren’t eliminating these from your body.”
  • “…if you have too much beta glucuronidase, it is going to make it very hard for you to properly clear your estrogen and those toxins out of your system. And so that is something that we test for. “
  • “So for women who are suffering from a lot of these infections, you want to be testing and seeing what is going on in the gut.”
  • “The only way that we understand what is really going on is we run the functional test to assess what’s happening.”
