Think your gut is healthy because you don't have bloating, constipation or indigestion? Think again. In this episode, Tara explains why you can have significant gut dysbiosis without a single digestive symptom—and why that matters if you're taking HRT.
Your gut plays a critical role in how your body metabolises and eliminates estrogen. Tara unpacks the connection between the microbiome, liver detoxification, the estrobolome, and beta-glucuronidase, and explains why simply taking supplements like DIM or calcium D-glucarate isn't addressing the root cause.
Whether you're on HRT or supporting your hormones naturally, this episode will help you understand why a healthy gut is essential for healthy hormone metabolism—and why optimising your gut may be one of the most important steps you can take, even if your digestion feels perfectly normal.
In this episode:
How hormones are metabolised through the liver and gut
Why you can have significant gut dysfunction without digestive symptoms
Why Tara no longer recommends DIM (and rarely uses milk thistle)
The estrobolome explained: your gut's role in estrogen metabolism
Why calcium D-glucarate isn't the answer
The real cause of elevated beta-glucuronidase
Why adjusting your HRT dose may not solve the real problem
