What if the symptoms you’re trying to fix, fatigue, bloating, anxiety, weight change, are really your body’s way of asking you to listen?

Today on Rooted in Wellness, me and my guest Dr. GuyCitrin, explore the intricate connection between the gut, hormones, and nervous system, and how inflammation and stress create the “stuck” feeling so many women describe. This is the bridge we love on this show: modern functional medicine meeting ancient wisdom in a way that feels empowering, not overwhelming.

In this conversation, we dive into why gut health must come before hormone therapy, how nervous system regulation transforms digestion, and why true detoxification isn’t a cleanse, it’s a reconnection to your body’s natural rhythm. We also discuss peptides, NAD, and regeneration through a balanced, grounded lens.

Dr. Guy Citrin is a board-certified naturopathic doctor and founder of Citrin Wellness and EndoAxis, where he helps patients restore vitality through integrative gut and hormone optimization. He blends evidence-based functional medicine with the wisdom of Ayurveda and emotional healing to guide people toward true regeneration.
