    13: Hormones or Gut Testing First? (Nikki's Notes)

    "Do I test my gut or my hormones first?" I got this question from a woman in our community, and I loved it so much I had to record a whole note on it. If you feel like your hormones are running the show, the PMS, the mood swings, the weight that won't move, the hormonal acne, your instinct is to go looking for a hormone answer. In this episode, I share why I almost always start somewhere else: the gut. I walk you through what I see in my practice over and over, and how a stool marker called beta-glucuronidase reveals whether your body is recycling old estrogen instead of clearing it, why that creates symptoms that feel exactly like a hormone imbalance, and where deeper hormone testing like the Dutch test actually belongs. I also share my own story of clearing 18 years of cystic acne by healing my gut. If you've been chasing your hormones for years with no lasting answers, this short note will reframe where you start. Turn your eyes upstream!  🎙️ Thanks for tuning in to today's episode.

    11: What Your Tongue Reveals About Your Gut Health, Liver, & Lymph

    The tongue is an underutilized tool in modern medicine. For thousands of years, traditional medicine systems used tongue diagnosis to assess gut health, digestion, organ function, and nutrient status.  In this episode, I'm breaking down the four most common tongue findings I see in my functional medicine practice and what each one signals about your gut bacteria, digestion, liver function, lymph, and nutrient absorption. You'll Learn: What a healthy tongue should look likeFinding #1: The thick white coating (3 gut patterns) Finding #2: The yellow coating (liver, lymph, and bile flow)Finding #3: Scalloped edges (the absorption issue + a client case) Finding #4: Cracks down the middle (autoimmune connection + my personal story)Tongue diagnosis isn't a substitute for comprehensive lab testing, but it can serve as a powerful clue that points us in the right direction! This is the first episode in a new series. In future episodes, I'll break down what your hair, skin, and nails reveal about your nutritional status and overall health.

    8: The 60-Second Test to Measure Low Stomach Acid (and What to Do If You're Low)

    The hidden reason 90% of women have bloating, reflux, and fatigue isn't "too much stomach acid" — it's too little. Inside: the 60-second at-home test, 10+ symptoms to watch for, and how to start raising it naturally. In this episode, I'm walking you through one of the most overlooked foundations of digestion: low stomach acid (also called hypochlorhydria). I see this in 9 out of 10 of the women I work with, and it's why so many "gut healing" protocols ultimately fail. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN Why "too much stomach acid" is the opposite of what's actually happeningThe 10+ symptoms that signal you're running low (most women miss these)The root causes of low stomach acid A simple at-home test you can do tomorrow morning What your test results actually meanThe natural ways to start supporting stomach acid productionWhy fermented foods can sometimes backfire when you're lowThe supplement timing mistake I see all the timeHow this connects to my Abounding 5™ Method for restoring gut health from the foundation upTHE 60-SECOND AT-HOME STOMACH ACID TEST Step 1: First thing in the morning, before eating or drinking anything, mix ¼ teaspoon of baking soda into 4-6 ounces of cold water. Step 2: Drink the mixture slowing (don't gulp) on an empty stomach. Step 3: Start a 3-minute timer immediately. Step 4: Note when (or if) you burp. WHAT YOUR RESULTS MEAN → Burped within 2-3 minutes = stomach acid is likely adequate → Burped after 3 minutes (or didn't burp at all) = likely low stomach acid 🎙️ Thanks for tuning in to today's episode.
