79 | How Nutrition Healed My Gut & Balanced Hormones with | Hannah Bethman

Описание: What if the symptoms you’ve been told are “just part of being a woman” are actually your body asking for better fuel and less friction? We sit down with women’s health coach Hannah Bethman, MS, to unpack the quiet drivers of gut pain, migraines, heavy cycles, and relentless fatigue, and the simple routines that turn it all around.

Hannah’s story starts with daily gastritis, brain fog, and hormone chaos, and lands in a place of calm digestion and steady cycles. The turning point wasn’t a complicated protocol. It was a return to basics: eating enough, prioritizing protein, building balanced plates that stabilize blood sugar, and using small stress levers like morning sunlight and a 4‑6 breath to shift into a parasympathetic state. We dig into soothing foods for upper GI inflammation, why lower GI bloating needs a personalized touch, and how nutrient density beats endless elimination lists.

We also challenge two common myths: that “normal” female symptoms must be endured, and that eating “clean” means flavorless meals and constant willpower. Hannah explains why many women undereat, often 1,200 to 1,300 calories, and how that starves thyroid function, disrupts cycles, and fuels headaches and 3 a.m. wakeups. You’ll learn practical markers of progress: cycles trending toward 28–29 days, fewer clots, migraines fading to mild nuisances, and energy that doesn’t require multiple coffees. Plus, we talk self‑advocacy in medical settings, when birth control may blunt symptoms without fixing root causes, and how functional testing can reveal hidden microbiome imbalances.

If you’re ready to swap extremes for consistency, this conversation offers a clear starting line: a protein‑forward breakfast, sunlight before screens, and a simple breathing practice you can keep.
