283. "Your gut health and your cravings are connected": Zuzu

What's the connection between gut health and sugar cravings? In this episode, ZuZu, a holistic healthcare practitioner, explains how poor gut health, candida, and SIBO can actually drive your cravings, and why healing the gut can make those cravings disappear almost entirely. She also explains why your body only needs one teaspoon of sugar in the bloodstream at any given time, why grains and starches count as sugar, and how excess sugar damages the nervous system and why this affects everything from digestion to neurotransmitter production.  So if you've been struggling with bloating, constipation, or diarrhea that nothing seems to fix, Zuzu's explanation of SIBO and methane overgrowth might finally give you some answers. Her biggest piece of advice? Learn about your body. Because when you understand what's happening inside, you stop being afraid of it, and you become your own best health advocate.
