What Hundreds of Gut Tests Told Us About Your Acne","html":"","width":"100%","height":180,"duration":2019,"description":"\nYou don't need a $500 stool test to know something's off in your gut. Your symptoms have been telling you for years.\n\nIn this episode, Katie and Cris break down the patterns they've seen over and over across hundreds of stool tests run on acne clients. They walk through the three umbrellas everything falls under: gut infections and overgrowths, broken-down digestion, and a leaky gut lining. From H. pylori and candida to low stomach acid and sluggish bile flow, they name the exact mechanisms connecting your gut to your skin, plus the everyday symptoms that point at an overgrowth long before a lab ever confirms it. They also get honest about why running a DUTCH before you've worked on your gut is usually wasted money. If you've been told your acne is \"just hormonal,\" this one's going to reframe things.\n\nIn This Episode We Cover\n\nWhy H. pylori, candida, staph, and strep are the overgrowths showing up most often in acne clients.\nHow low stomach acid opens the door for bacterial overgrowth and blocks the protein your skin needs to repair.\nWhat toenail fungus, a white tongue, and repeat yeast infections can tell you about what's living in your gut.\nWhy your estrobolome decides how well you clear estrogen, and what that means for jawline breakouts.\nHow sluggish bile flow starves your hormones of the fats they're built from.\nWhy an HTMA is a smarter first test than a GI Map or a DUTCH when money is tight.\n\nResources & Links Mentioned\n\nThe Gut Reset (new self-paced gut protocol mini course)\nThe GI Map Testing Package\nThe HTMA Testing Package\n\n\nWork With Us + Connect\n\nReady to start?
