Gut health isn’t just about digestion: it’s the foundation of whole-body balance. Clinical herbalist and author Maria Noël Groves brings a practical and deeply empowering perspective to the conversation, helping demystify gut health and showing how herbs can gently and effectively support digestion and long-term vitality.
Maria is the author of several books, including but not limited to Body into Balance and Herbs for Gut Health. She is a clinical herbalist and herbal medicine teacher with more than 2 decades of experience and a registered professional member of the American Herbalists Guild. Her business, Wintergreen Botanicals, is based in Chichester, New Hampshire.
In our conversation, Maria shares…
- Why gut health matters—and why it’s about so much more than digestion
- Key signs your digestion is out of balance (and signs it’s healing)
- Common root causes of gut issues and what realistic healing timelines look like
- How herbs support gut health and the microbiome
- An herbalist’s perspective on heartburn, GERD, leaky gut, and food sensitivities
- And so much more!
