Gut health and hormone balance are not two separate conversations. They are the same one. If you are dealing with bloating, irregular cycles, stubborn weight, fatigue, or the skin issues that nothing seems to fix, your gut microbiome may be the root cause.

There is a specific subset of gut bacteria called the estrobolome, and it controls how your body processes and clears estrogen. When it is out of balance, estrogen builds up, symptoms pile on, and no supplement in the world will move the needle until the gut is addressed first.

In this episode, Lizzie Ens, functional nutrition coach and founder of Undiet You, sits down with Caroline Carralero, CEO and founder of Daily Nouri, a targeted gut microbiome company built specifically for women.

Caroline breaks down how the estrobolome works, why PCOS, estrogen dominance, and infertility all have a gut connection, and how targeted strain-specific probiotics are fundamentally different from the one-size-fits-all bottle you have probably tried before. Daily Nouri is currently running a first-of-its-kind clinical trial on their Hormone Balance probiotic.

This episode gives you the science in plain language so you can start making decisions that actually match how your body works.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• What the estrobolome is and why this lesser-known part of your gut microbiome directly controls how much estrogen circulates in your body at any given time.
• Why PCOS, endometriosis, estrogen dominance, and infertility all share a gut root cause, and what that means for where healing has to start.
• The difference between a generic probiotic and a targeted strain-specific probiotic, and why the cheap bottle from the drugstore was never designed to help with hormone imbalance.
• Why sleep is your number one detoxer, and how skipping rest is keeping your gut and hormones stuck no matter what else you do.
• The specific Daily Nouri product Caroline recommends as a starting point for women in their twenties, thirties, and perimenopause, including what makes each phase of life different.
• Why your body cannot heal in a stressed state, and how the cortisol-gut-hormone loop keeps women spinning their wheels even when they are doing everything right.

Emotional blocks to weight loss are the real reason so many women stay stuck no matter how clean they eat or how hard they train.

If you are sick and tired of doing everything right and still not seeing results, your body is not broken. The block is underneath the surface, and it is wrapped around your heart.

In this solo episode, functional nutrition coach, business owner, author, and speaker Lizzie Ens introduces The Onion Framework, her powerful framework for understanding how unhealed trauma, childhood conditioning, and emotional shutdown silently sabotage physical healing.

Drawing from her own Amish upbringing and her years of coaching real women through real transformation, Lizzie gets raw about what it actually takes to lose weight and feel well from the inside out. You will walk away knowing exactly where to start.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• What The Onion Framework is and why the layers of emotional protection wrapped around your heart are directly blocking your body's ability to heal and release weight.
• Why healing from the inside out is not just a mindset concept but a physical necessity, and how unresolved trauma shows up as thyroid issues, autoimmune conditions, gut problems, and unexplained weight gain.
• How Lizzie's Amish upbringing created specific patterns of emotional shutdown and overworking that she has since unpacked, and why so many women share these same patterns without recognizing them.
• Why the number on the scale triggers you so deeply, what that emotional charge is actually telling you, and how to face it instead of letting it derail your progress.
• The one question Lizzie asks every new client to reveal how closed off they are from themselves: "If you took away every title you carry, do you know who you are?"

We talk about:

00:00 Why most people never reach their health goals

01:30 The friend conversation that sparked this episode

03:00 What is The Onion Framework and how does it work

05:30 How growing up Amish shaped Lizzie's emotional shutdown

07:00 Were you meant to stay or were you meant to leave

09:00 Who are you without your titles and your work

10:30 What do you do for fun, and why that question matters

12:30 How Lizzie learned to live outside of work

14:30 Can you stay in parasympathetic long enough to heal

16:00 How to make big things happen instead of just dreaming

18:00 Why people invest in their health when they are truly ready

20:00 The scale went up. Now what do you do with those emotions

22:00 What pulling the onion back actually feels like

23:30 The client who applied for 600 jobs and never gave up

26:00 You cannot hate your body into healing. This is what works

What if the reason you cannot lose weight, you are always tired, and your labs keep coming back "normal" is a condition affecting up to 40% of adults that most doctors are not even testing for?

In this solo episode, Lizzie breaks down everything you need to know about insulin resistance: what it is, why it is quietly behind so much of the weight gain, fatigue, inflammation, and metabolic chaos she sees in her clients every day, and most importantly, what you can actually do about it without going straight for medication.

She shares the specific lab test your doctor is likely skipping, walks through a real client story that shows exactly how this plays out, shares her own personal experience going into insulin resistance from chronic stress and poor sleep, and lays out the research-backed lifestyle changes that have been shown to rival medication for blood sugar and insulin management.

This is the episode for anyone who has been doing everything right and still cannot figure out why their body is not responding. The answer might be in a number your doctor has never checked.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why up to 40% of adults have insulin resistance and most have no idea, including what is quietly happening in your body before any obvious symptoms show up
• The single most important lab test for metabolic health that is missing from most standard blood panels and exactly what to ask your doctor for
• How visceral fat, PCOS, fatty liver disease, cardiovascular disease, and cognitive decline are all downstream effects of unmanaged insulin resistance
• Why stress and poor sleep can drive you into insulin resistance even when your diet is completely clean, and how Lizzie experienced this firsthand
• The role of muscle mass in glucose disposal and why strength training is one of the most powerful things you can do for insulin sensitivity
• How to prepare potatoes and other whole food carbs in a way that significantly reduces your insulin spike
• Why eating protein and vegetables before your carbohydrates flattens your post-meal glucose response, and what the research actually shows
• The post-meal walking research that demonstrated comparable results to adding an insulin injection in type 2 diabetes patients
• What front-loading your meals earlier in the day does for your sleep quality, deep sleep, and heart rate variability
• When a short-term intervention may be appropriate and why lifestyle change still has to come first regardless

We talk about:

00:00 Why insulin resistance is behind so much unexplained weight gain, fatigue, and inflammation

02:00 How common it actually is, the lifestyle factors driving it, and why most people have no idea they have it

03:00 How insulin resistance develops in the body and where the breakdown actually happens

04:00 The lab test your doctor is likely skipping and why glucose and A1C alone are not enough

05:00 Client story: pre-diabetic, shaky after meals, and blaming the wrong thing entirely

08:00 Visceral fat, fatty liver, PCOS, and cardiovascular disease: the downstream effects no one warns you about

09:00 Why sedentary muscle, chronic stress, and poor sleep fast-track insulin resistance

12:30 The good news: insulin resistance is largely reversible, and when a short-term microdose intervention makes sense

15:00 What to do now: cut refined carbs, prioritize protein and fiber, and how to prep your carbs smarter

17:30 Post-meal walking, eating order, and the research showing lifestyle can rival medication

21:00 The studies on resistance training, stair climbing, and sleep restriction that make the case for lifestyle first

25:00 Front-loading meals, reverse fasting, and what Lizzie's Oura Ring data revealed about earlier cutoffs

What if the fear that has kept you off hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is built on a study the researchers themselves have walked back?

In this episode, Lizzie sits down with Certified Hormone Specialist Karen Martel to unpack the most common HRT mistakes women make and why the window to act is years earlier than most doctors will tell you.

Karen breaks down why 100% of women are affected by the loss of their hormones even when the symptoms are invisible, why estrogen is protective rather than dangerous, and how one misreported study created decades of fear around the wrong hormone. They get into the timing mistake that costs women years of needless suffering, the xenoestrogens hiding in everyday products, and why HRT only works when the foundational pieces are actually in place.

This is the episode for the woman who has been handed a prescription for patience and told to come back when things get worse. There is a better way, and it starts with knowing what to avoid.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why 100% of women are affected by the loss of their hormones, even without hot flashes or weight gain, and what is quietly changing on the inside for your bones, brain, heart, and blood sugar
• The timing mistake that costs women years: why declining hormones, not full menopause, are the real signal to start HRT
• The truth about the Women's Health Initiative study, why estradiol is breast protective, and which synthetic hormone actually raised the risk
• Why HRT is never one-size-fits-all and exactly what to do when the first protocol does not work for you
• Where xenoestrogens and endocrine disruptors hide in your home and the simple daily detox habit that helps clear them
• Why you cannot out-diet or out-supplement low hormones, and the foundational pieces that make HRT actually work
• How far hormone loss really reaches, from skin and collagen to hair, mood, libido, joints, and even your voice
• Why fewer than 7% of doctors are trained in menopause and how to advocate for the care you deserve

We talk about:

00:00 - The mistakes women make with HRT and why the information out there is so conflicting 02:30 - Karen's story: how early menopause blindsided a health expert who thought she was fully prepared

06:00 - Mistake one: believing your healthy habits will protect you from the loss of your hormones

10:30 - Xenoestrogens and endocrine disruptors: where they hide and the daily detox that helps

15:00 - Mistake two: timing, and why waiting for full menopause works against you

20:00 - The fear of estrogen, the Women's Health Initiative myth, and the hormone that was actually the problem

26:00 - Why fewer than 7% of doctors are trained in menopause and how to advocate for yourself

30:00 - Why HRT almost always needs tweaking and the many ways hormones can be delivered

34:00 - The foundations you cannot skip and the truth about alcohol and breast cancer risk

38:00 - How far hormone loss reaches: skin, collagen, hair, voice, libido, and joints

42:00 - Bioidentical hormones you can access over the counter without a prescription

45:00 - Why midlife can be the best and most powerful season of your life

What if the number your doctor is watching most closely is not the one that matters most?

In this solo episode, Lizzie breaks down what your cholesterol panel is actually trying to tell you, why triglycerides are the number to watch, and why LDL is more of a signal than a problem. She unpacks how statins work, why they are hard to get off, and what has driven the shift in prescribing thresholds over the years. She also gets into the gut-cholesterol connection, the role of parasites, heavy metals, and mold in elevated LDL, and why the oatmeal advice needs to stop.

This is the episode for the person who has been handed a prescription and told to eat more fiber. There is more to this story.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why statin medication is the most over-prescribed drug in the US and how it actually works inside the body
• The difference between LDL, HDL, and triglycerides and which number should be driving your concern
• Why LDL can rise in response to parasites, heavy metals, mold, and bacterial infections as a protective mechanism for your brain
• What low HDL levels can signal, including a possible autoimmune connection
• Why red meat and eggs do not raise cholesterol and why oatmeal may be making things worse for people with insulin resistance
• What lifestyle changes can realistically move your numbers and the supplement Lizzie recommends as a natural starting point
• How to know if your doctor is managing your numbers versus actually helping you get better

We talk about:

00:00 - Why cholesterol medication is the most over-prescribed drug and what Lizzie learned in functional medicine school

03:30 - How the body makes cholesterol daily and why fiber and daily elimination matter more than most people think

06:00 - The statin pathway: how the medication works, why it shuts down the body's own cholesterol production, and why it is so hard to get off

09:00 - How the threshold for prescribing statins has dropped over the decades and why

12:00 - How Lizzie can tell within 10 minutes of a consultation whether a doctor is helping a client or keeping them dependent

15:00 - Triglycerides: why they are the number to actually watch for heart disease, stroke, and clogged arteries

18:00 - LDL decoded: why it goes up in response to infections, pathogens, heavy metals, mold, and parasites

21:00 - The blood-brain barrier connection and what research on MS patients revealed about parasites in the brain

24:00 - HDL and what low levels can signal, including autoimmune patterns

27:00 - The real dietary drivers of cholesterol and why eggs and red meat are not the problem

30:00 - Why oatmeal may be spiking your blood sugar instead of helping your cholesterol

33:00 - Red yeast rice: what it is and how to use it as a natural cholesterol support tool

36:00 - The courage it takes to change direction when what you are doing is not working

What if the reason you are still struggling with your health has nothing to do with what you are eating and everything to do with the invisible forces your body is swimming in every single day?

In this episode of The Lizzie Ens Show, Lizzie sits down with Dr. Catherine Clinton, a licensed naturopathic physician and founder of the Quantum Biology Health Institute, to explore one of the most fascinating and underutilized frameworks in modern health. Quantum biology.

Dr. Clinton was not always the expert in the room. She came to this work because she got sick. In her second year of naturopathic medical school, her nervous system buckled under the pressure, and she was diagnosed with two autoimmune conditions, Lyme disease, and a cascade of GI infections. Conventional tools helped her function. Quantum biology helped her actually heal.

In this conversation, Lizzie and Dr. Clinton break down what quantum biology actually is, why your mitochondria are the key to almost every modern disease, how light, water, sound, and the earth beneath your feet are sending real biological signals to your cells, and why the outdoors is not a nice-to-have but a genuine prescription for healing.

This is the episode for the woman who has tried everything and still does not feel well. The answer might not be another supplement. It might be a walk outside.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• What quantum biology actually is and why it represents a major expansion beyond the chemical and mechanical model of medicine
• How Dr. Clinton went from debilitated medical student to founder of the Quantum Biology Health Institute
• Why your mitochondria are the foundation of almost every aspect of your health including hormones, immunity, metabolism, and mood
• How light, specifically infrared light, acts like a gas pedal for your cells and why you are getting it even on cloudy days
• What blue light from screens and LED bulbs is actually doing to your cortisol, blood sugar, melatonin, and sleep
• Why your fascia is not just scaffolding but the largest sensory organ in your body and a full electrical communication network
• What happens inside your body when you are chronically dehydrated at a cellular level
• How a five minute heart coherence practice measurably improved mitochondrial function in Dr. Clinton's research
• Why dysbiosis in your gut microbiome may actually be your body trying to compensate for stressed mitochondria
• How grounding, nature, movement, and even your thoughts directly impact cellular energy production
• What Dr. Clinton's book Optimized covers and how to get the free companion workbook

We talk about:

• 00:00 What is quantum biology and why it matters for your health
• 03:00 How Dr. Clinton got sick in medical school and what led her to this work
• 06:00 Light as medicine and the Nobel Prize winning research on circadian biology
• 09:00 Blue light, LED screens, cortisol, melatonin, and what is actually happening in your body at night
• 13:00 How quantum biology helped Dr. Clinton fully heal from autoimmune disease and Lyme
• 17:00 Why returning to nature is not optional, it is a biological prescription
• 20:00 Fascia explained: the body's electrical communication network and why hydration matters more than you think
• 25:00 Grounding, bioelectricity, and how your body maintains its vital charge
• 30:00 Heart coherence: the five minute daily practice that improved mitochondrial function in research
• 33:00 Trauma, the microbiome, and why your gut bacteria might be trying to help you

What if every diet you have ever tried was never actually designed to teach you how to heal?

In this deeply personal solo episode of The Lizzie Ens Show, Lizzie pulls back the curtain on the journey that built Undiet You from the ground up. She takes you all the way back to growing up in the Amish community in Ohio, navigating relentless body comparison as a twin, developing an eating disorder as a teenager, cycling through fad diets in her early twenties, and ultimately finding her calling as a board-certified functional practitioner helping women break free from the dieting cycle for good.

This is not a polished highlight reel. This is the raw, honest story of what it actually takes to go from chronic dieting and self-destruction to building a thriving life and business rooted in real healing, and why Lizzie believes that food freedom starts long before what is on your plate.

If you have ever felt like no matter how hard you try, diets just do not work for you, this episode is the explanation and the permission slip you have been waiting for.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

What if feeling worse on a detox is not a sign that it's failing but a sign your body was never properly prepared to handle it in the first place?

In this solo episode of The Lizzie Ens Show, Lizzie breaks down everything you need to know before you ever start a detox: why the lymphatic system has to be open and flowing first, what die-off symptoms are actually telling you, and why so many women make themselves sicker by detoxing before their gut, liver, kidneys, and colon are ready.

What if the reason you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure… isn’t because you don’t know what to do, but because you’ve been trained to stop listening to yourself?

In this solo episode of The Lizzie Ens Show, Lizzie breaks down the real reason so many people feel disconnected from their decisions, constantly second-guessing, overthinking, and seeking validation from everyone except the one voice that matters most, their own.

Through real client stories and powerful mindset shifts, this episode explores how fear, lack of trust, and outside noise keep you stuck in cycles of confusion, even when you already have the answers.

Because the truth is, clarity doesn’t come from more opinions.

It comes from learning how to trust yourself again.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why you rely on other people’s opinions instead of your own intuition
• The difference between making decisions from fear vs education
• How outside noise creates confusion, even when your path is clear
• The real reason you don’t trust yourself (and how to rebuild it)
• Why other people’s experiences don’t apply to your life
• How fear disguises itself as “advice” from others
• The importance of having the right guidance, not more opinions
• Why staying in your lane is the fastest path to clarity
• How to quiet the noise so you can hear your own voice again
• The truth about growth, mentorship, and becoming who you’re meant to be
