"Your bowels are not irritable for no reason — just like your child wouldn't be irritable for no reason. Something is going on, something is off. And it's our job to find out what." — Dahlia Marin, RDN Show Description What does your gut have to do with your hormones, your skin, your brain, and your long-term health? Everything. In this episode of the Green Glow Lifestyle Podcast, host Kylie Buckner, RN sits down with Registered Dietitian Nutritionist and gut health trailblazer Dahlia Marin, RDN, LD, CGN, co-founder of Married to Health, for a conversation that is equal parts clinical deep-dive and heart-to-heart between two healthcare mamas who have been there. Dahlia has spent nearly 14 years in the field — from inpatient hospital dietetics to pediatric lifestyle medicine to integrative and functional GI nutrition — and she brings all of it to this conversation. Together, Kylie and Dahlia pull back the curtain on the "gut health trend," break down what's really going on when you're told "it's just IBS," and explain why your bowels are never irritable for no reason. Kylie also gets personal — sharing her own 20+ year journey of chronic constipation, bloating, pain, and misdiagnosis that ultimately led to a Stage 4 Endometriosis diagnosis — and how addressing the root cause finally resolved the GI symptoms she had been living with for decades. This episode is for you if you've ever been dismissed, handed a diagnosis without answers, or simply want to understand what your body has been trying to tell you all along.
