  • Essential Insights into Gallbladder Function and Care with Amie Skilton

    Join us as we dive deep into gallbladder health with the wisdom of Naturopath Amie Skilton.

     In this episode, we uncover why we are seeing a surge in gallbladder diseases and removals, particularly among younger individuals.

    We discuss how your daily choices and environmental toxins  may be putting your gallbladder at risk, and learn the surprising ways estrogen itself plays a pivotal role in gallbladder function. We connect the dots between gallbladder issues and broader health concerns like diabetes and liver disease, emphasizing the dire need for a shift in awareness to safeguard this vital organ.

    Navigating the murky waters of gallbladder management, Amie tackles the array of treatments available for those facing gallbladder distress. 

    This episode goes beyond the quick fixes, shedding light on the deeper causes of gallbladder woes. We highlight that, often, the real solution lies in preventative care and early intervention—strategies that could spare you from the operating room and promote long-term well-being.

    About Amie
    Amie Skilton – is a functional medicine practitioner of almost 20 years and a well-known educator in naturopathic medicine. For over 15 years, I’ve had the privilege of appearing on conference stages, TV sets and – more recently – laptop screens via Zoom. In that time, I’ve had the honour of presenting more than a thousand keynotes to functional medicine practitioners, integrative GPs, holistic pharmacists and the general public.  

    In 2017, I had the plot twist of my life. I developed an environmentally-acquired illness (CIRS or ‘mould illness’) and, amongst other discoveries, realised my naturopathic, nutritional and herbal toolkit was only as valuable as my environment was healthy. 

    I’m now a qualified Mould Testing Technician and continue studying building biology and the various ways in which the built environment has a profound impact on human health. So my educational repertoire has expanded to include environmental health hazards and functional medicine strategies.

We explore various delivery methods, such as transdermal applications and vegetable capsules, which cater to unique patient needs.
