You're not alone—and you're definitely not broken. In this episode of the Fix Your Gut Podcast, holistic nutritionist Holly Bradich dives deep into the root causes of constipation in midlife women, revealing how hormonal shifts, stress, and changes in the gut microbiome can throw digestion completely out of balance.

This is Part 1 of 3 in the Constipation Causes series, so stay tuned!

Forget the endless cycle of laxatives, restrictive diets, and expensive supplements. This episode is all about natural constipation relief by supporting and rebalancing your gut bacteria. You'll learn:

✅ Why perimenopause and menopause impact digestion and bowel regularity
✅ The role of methanogen overgrowth, dysbiosis, and microbial diversity in constipation
✅ How to promote gut motility naturally—without triggering more bloat
✅ Specific probiotic and prebiotic strategies to get you going again
