Stress, the HPA Axis, and Gut Health

Join us for our free masterclass https://midlifeconversations.com/gut

Is your gut secretly controlling your brain, sabotaging your weight loss, and destroying your health – all while conventional medicine tells you it's "just stress"?

After diving deep into the research on histamine, mast cells, and the gut-brain connection (and texting Laura Frontiero approximately a million questions), I discovered why so many midlife women are struggling with mysterious symptoms that doctors can't explain. Laura reveals the shocking truth about leaky gut that has nothing to do with digestive symptoms, why fermented foods and bone broth might be making you worse, not better, and the dangerous mistake people make when trying to heal their gut. We uncover the instant connection between your brain and gut (proven by stroke research), why perfectionism is sabotaging your healing, and the surprising over-the-counter remedies that actually work for histamine issues. Plus, Laura shares why meditation might be stressing you out more, the unexpected link between gut health and Alzheimer's, and how estrogen dominance persists even after menopause. This conversation completely changed how I think about the stress-gut-brain connection and reveals why doing just 60% of things right is enough to heal.
