If you have clients doing everything right eating clean, cutting gluten and dairy, exercising consistently and they're still bloated, exhausted, and stuck, this episode is for you. I'm sitting down with gut health expert Hannah Aylward to talk about what's actually going on when food isn't the problem, what "leaky gut" really means, and what signs fitness coaches should watch for before referring clients out for deeper support.
What You'll Discover:
- Why food sensitivity tests are often misleading and what to look at instead
- The truth about leaky gut — what the science actually says and how to identify root causes
- How to differentiate fat, protein, and fiber reactivity in clients
- The real story behind "adrenal fatigue" and HPA axis dysregulation
- What signs tell a coach that a client needs deeper gut health support
- Hannah's 80-85% compliance rule and why perfection sabotages results
- How long gut healing actually takes at the root cause level
