Lindsey Parsons is a gut health coach with a specialty in getting to the root cause of gut imbalances and reversing autoimmune disease naturally. After taking repeated antibiotics for food poisoning, Lindsey’s pre-existing digestive issues only became worse and she was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s disease. Present day, having healed her own health issues holistically, she now helps those struggling with unexplained weight gain and medical problems coined “untreatable” by way of traditional medicine. I was delighted to talk with her about the interesting connection between the gut and metabolic health! 

WHAT WE DISCUSSED: 

[7:29]- How founding a non-profit to change the public school food system led Lindsey to explore gut health and ultimately make it her passion project. 

[12:56]- What symptoms was Lindsey experiencing while struggling with IBS and Hashimoto’s? 

[19:20]- What is the relationship between the gut microbiome and autoimmune disease? 

[24:49]- What causes gut dysbiosis? What are the most popular food triggers? 

[35:04]- Lindsey’s approach to healing the gut post antibiotic use. 

[43:22]- How is gut health connected to blood sugar balance and weight loss resistance? 

[49:51]- Lindsey’s favorite lab tests for GI insight. 

[54:00]- What are the root causes of low stomach acid? 

[1:01:21]- How does the Earth’s seasons influence gut microbiome? 

[1:03:47]- Traveling and its effect on the gut.
