In this episode of the Gutsy Health Podcast, Dr. Rodgers and Juanique Grover unpack the powerful connection between liver health and hormone balance — and why true healing starts far upstream. They explain the "order of healing" (mindset → mitochondria → gut → liver → hormones) and why treating hormone issues without addressing liver health leads to more problems down the line. You'll learn how CIRS impacts mitochondria and hormone production, why the liver is crucial for hormone detoxification, and how sugar, insulin resistance, and gallbladder dysfunction tie into it all. They also break down why traditional lab ranges often miss liver stress, why cholesterol is a key liver marker, and how healing your liver is foundational for restoring energy, brain function, fertility, and overall vitality.

Key Takeaways

• Hormones are a symphony; imbalance creates dysfunction.
• True healing order: mindset → mitochondria → gut → liver → hormones.
• The liver is essential for detoxifying and converting hormones.
• CIRS severely disrupts mitochondrial energy and hormone balance.
• Signs of liver dysfunction: fatigue, mood swings, skin issues, heavy periods, brain fog.
• Proper nutrient absorption is critical for liver and hormone health.
• Cholesterol (made in the liver) is the backbone for hormone production.
• High LDL and insulin resistance often signal liver distress.
• High fructose consumption (especially from processed foods) damages liver function.
• Gallbladder health is critical for fat digestion and hormonal support.
• Post-gallbladder removal: ox bile supplementation is important.
• Healing liver and gut health leads to natural hormone balance — without relying solely on bioidentical hormones.
• Optimal lab ranges (not just "normal") are key for assessing liver and hormone health.

In this episode, we explore why mitochondria are Step 2 in the Order of Healing and why they are the MVPs of health and recovery. If you want a healthy body, balanced hormones, strong immune function, or efficient healing, you must prioritize mitochondrial health—because almost all disease begins at the mitochondrial level.

We also discuss:

• Signs of poor mitochondrial health

• How mitochondria adapt under stress and what happens when they don’t

• Key nutrients and lifestyle changes to restore and multiply mitochondria

• Ozone therapy, exercise, and sauna benefits for mitochondria

• Why slow, gentle healing is the key to long-term recovery

"Clinical hypnosis isn’t mind control but rather a powerful tool for focusing your attention internally and engaging your imagination to achieve a relaxed state. This state allows you to use your mind to influence your body, like reducing pain or discomfort."

We're often told gut issues come from physical causes—things like bacterial infections, food intolerances, or unexplained physiological factors.

But there's a crucial mind-body connection that's frequently overlooked.

In this episode, we explore an interdisciplinary field that's reversing chronic gut disorders through an integrated psychological approach. Our guest is Dr. Ali Navidi, a pioneering psychologist and co-founder of GI Psychology on the cutting-edge of this work. You'll discover surprising ways stress, unregulated nervous systems, and brain-gut miscommunication underlie issues like IBS, IBD, and more.

Dr. Navidi explains how tools like clinical hypnosis, neurofeedback, and cognitive retraining techniques can reprogram these powerful mind-body pathways.
