ABOUT THIS EPISODE
What if your gut healing protocol isn’t failing, but you’re just addressing the wrong things in the wrong order?
In this episode of Empowered in Health, Erin sits down with Liz Roman, a functional health practitioner and wellness educator known as the "thepoopqueen" - to unpack the deeper connections between gut health, the immune system, the liver, hormones and metabolic health.
Liz shares her own decades-long health journey, including childhood rheumatoid arthritis, Hashimoto’s, chronic constipation, inflammation, weight struggles, and the functional medicine discoveries that changed how she approaches healing.
Together, Erin and Liz explore why constantly adding supplements, restrictive diets, and eradication protocols may not address the bigger picture and why the body needs the right foundations and sequence for healing.
You’ll learn about:
• The gut-immune connection and why immune regulation matters
• Why “order of operations” can be critical in gut healing
• The relationship between gut health, the liver, bile, and hormones
• SIBO, leaky gut, food intolerance, and microbiome diversity
• Why long-term food restriction may not be the goal
• The importance of supporting digestion, stomach acid, elimination, and the gut lining
• Why rebuilding and repopulating the microbiome matters after eradication
• How lifestyle, stress, sleep, nutrition, and environment can influence healing
• Why resilience and consistency matter more than chasing extreme protocols
The conversation ultimately comes back to a powerful message: healing is a process and creating the right environment for your body matters.
If you're navigating gut health issues, chronic symptoms, restrictive diets, or simply trying to understand what your body needs, this episode will give you a different framework for looking at the bigger picture.
