Consider the Liver: Estrogen dominance, TUDCA, coffee enemas, and anger patterns
13 May 2025
00:27:31
In this episode, we give our livers a little love. A solo ep about my liver health journey over the last year. We talk about emotional bitterness and anger reflecting liver congestion. We make the link between estrogen dominance and an overburdened liver. We cover the balance between bile production and stomach acid (the root of the gut-liver connection), HTMAs, supplementing with bitters and TUDCA, mineral balancing protocols, and even...yes...coffee enemas and floating stool as a sign of poor fat absorption.
If you're TTC and are worried about estrogen dominance, you're going to want to consider the liver.
In this episode we uncover four layers of tension that most women experience that lead to poor gut health, imbalanced hormones, mood issues, and general discomfort. There are MANY reasons for gut inflammation, pelvic tension, and low lung capacity (like infection, muscle atrophy or hypertrophy, and gut dysbiosis, for example), but these reasons are even MORE foundational. Societal and personal energetic drivers of pelvic and abdominal tension lay the foundation for poor fluid dynamic, poor lymphatics, gut dysbiosis, and pelvic inflammation to even occur in the first place.
