Show summary: “You have to eat the right materials in order to heal your body. Even though there is so much deep science, you can do it. It’s just a willingness to do it.”

Just over a month ago, we introduced the first and second steps in the Order of Healing: Mindset & Mitochondria.

Today, we discuss steps 3 and 4 in the Order of Healing: Gut & Liver.

It is no mystery how important the gut is in our overall health and healing. After all, the gut and the lining of your intestines act as the border between the food you eat and your immune system.

The process of breaking down nutrients starts within your gut. And so the repair your body needs starts within your gut. 

On the other hand, the liver may be undervalued and unrecognized whenever you think about your health. But it is just as important. The liver is closely connected to your gut and digestion. It plays a fundamental role in creating hormones and regulating blood sugar and cholesterol.

In this episode, we dive deep into the science of the roles your gut and liver play in your health healing. 

Healing happens, and we invite you to become the experts because it is one of the most empowering tools you can utilize for your healing journey.

You have to look out for bloating, gassiness, and burping. Questions to consider: does your meal kind of sit in your stomach for an hour or two? Do you feel heavy? Bloating and gassiness shouldn’t be normalized.

Why does bloating and gassiness happen?

Juanique: 17:02

You’re eating food that is rotting in your gut. Bloating and gassiness are a sign of inflammation. And bad bacteria thrive in inflammation.

Sugar is highly inflammatory

Sugar is highly inflammatory not only in the gut but also in the liver. It releases aldehydes that are toxic to your body.
