Have you recently switched to a dairy-free diet and suddenly realized your old protein powder is off the table?

Or maybe you’ve heard that most conventional protein powders are loaded with fillers, artificial sweeteners, gums, and even heavy metals — and now you’re wondering what safe, clean protein powder alternatives you’re actually supposed to buy.

If you’re anything like me — or my clients — you’re probably standing in the protein aisle (or scrolling on Amazon) feeling completely overwhelmed.

There are so many options… and let’s be honest: not all of them taste great, and not all of them are good for your gut.

That’s why today, I’m breaking down the top 10 healthy, dairy-free, gluten-free, gut-friendly protein powders that my clients and I personally use and love.

I’ll walk you through:

• who each powder is best for,
• why my clients liked it,
• and what makes each one a great fit for sensitive digestion.

And make sure you stay until the end — because I’m revealing the TOP recommendations LAST.

I’ll also give you a quick summary of which protein powders to try first depending on what’s going on in your body — whether you’re dealing with candida, want the best plant-based options, or you need something for a super-sensitive gut.

As we head into the holiday season — with travel, treats, and routine changes — I hope these recommendations give you easy, delicious ways to support your gut, your energy, and your taste buds.

What makes some people heal faster than others?

And how can you use that information to speed up your own healing process?

Since healing myself in 2018, I’ve worked with hundreds of men and women — in my clinic and online — to find and fix the root causes behind their gut, skin, sinus, hormone, and autoimmune issues.

And after working with all these clients, I started asking myself: what made the difference that helps some clients heal fast, while others healed slow?

Was it random who healed quickly? Or was it from invisible, uncontrollable factors like their genes?

Turns out—it wasn’t random. And it definitely wasn’t genetics.

There were clear, repeatable habits my fastest-healing clients shared.

Today, I’m breaking down the top 3 things my most successful clients do to heal their gut FAST—so you can do the same.

Have you ever had your doctor tell you your liver enzymes are too high — and then… not really know what to do about it?

Maybe they asked if you drink alcohol.

You said no.

And then they just told you to “keep an eye on it.”

No answers. No next steps.

Just… watch and wait.

Or - have you had a doctor freak out on you that your liver enzymes were high, and you walked away super stressed about it, but you didn't feel good about the options they gave you to lower it?

This situation is SUPER common with clients I've had. Clients who looked healthy on the outside (they're labs "looked fine"), but their liver enzymes were high - and doctors didn't have any good recommendations.

That's why, on today's episode, we're covering ALL THING high liver enzymes.

We'll be covering:

• The surprisingly simple explanation behind what liver enzymes elevated means
• Causes of elevated liver enzymes (beyond just too much alcohol)
• Symptoms of high liver enzymes (do you have any of these?)
• The crazy connection between elevated liver enzymes and gut health symptoms like bloating and hormone symptoms like PMS
• What additional testing you can do (beyond your liver enzyme blood test) to find the root cause behind your elevated liver enzymes
• How to actually support your liver so your enzymes - and your body - can come back into balance

If you’ve ever been told your liver enzyme levels are high but you don’t drink, you eat healthy, and your doctor still can’t explain it — then this episode is for you.
