Gut healing often stalls not because protocols are wrong, but because the nervous system is still operating in protection mode. In this episode, we explore how chronic stress and emotional load directly alter digestion, immune signaling, gut permeability, and the microbiome. You'll learn why high-functioning, motivated people often struggle the most with gut symptoms, how stress physiology changes stomach acid, bile flow, motility, and immune tolerance, and why gut inflammation can begin driving anxiety and mood changes over time.
