For many women, period problems are treated as a hormone issue only. You’re told to go on birth control, take painkillers, or accept that cramps and PMS are just “part of being a woman.”

But one of the most overlooked root causes of PMS and period pain is unstable blood sugar.

Blood sugar imbalances cause inflammation, increase stress hormones like cortisol, and disrupt estrogen and progesterone levels, all of which directly cause PMS and painful periods.

When blood sugar is on a rollercoaster, your hormones will be, too.

Low stomach acid is one of the most common patterns I see on stool testing and it’s missed most of the time in mainstream medicine.

So many of the women I work with come to me asking: “Why am I bloated and constipated even though I eat well?” or, “Why do I feel bloated after every meal?” They’re often dealing with chronic bloating, irregular bowel movements, and ongoing digestive discomfort despite doing “all the right things.”

Have you been told your bloodwork is normal, even though you’re exhausted, bloated, and feel completely burnt out? 

This common scenario is extremely frustrating because despite what your doctor says, you know this isn’t how you’re supposed to feel everyday.

If you’re dealing with bloating, food intolerances, gas, constipation, diarrhea, or, have been diagnosed with “IBS” but your doctor keeps telling you your tests look “normal”…

It’s time to dig deeper.

Most women I work with come to me after trying things like:

• Food sensitivity tests that leave them scared to eat a long list of foods

• Elimination diets

• Tons of supplements (eg. fiber, digestive enzymes, probiotics)
