E: 356 Stress Is Stealing Your Minerals
Got a question? Send Audrey a Text and she will answer in an episode. There is a particular kind of frustration that happens when you are doing most things right, but your body still seems less resilient than it used to be. You are eating intentionally. You are exercising. You are taking magnesium. You are getting outside. Maybe your sleep is even improving. And yet, you are slower to recover from workouts. Your brain feels tired. Your shoulders stay tense. You are waking up at odd hours, reaching for more caffeine, or feeling like ordinary life requires more effort than it should.

E: 355 Gallbladder Problems
Got a question? Send Audrey a Text and she will answer in an episode. Gallbladder problems are about much more than gallstones. In this episode of the Root Cause Revolution Podcast, Audrey Christie explains what the gallbladder actually does, why bile matters for digestion and elimination, and why digestive symptoms can continue even after gallbladder removal. You’ll learn how the liver produces bile, how the gallbladder stores and concentrates it, and why bile is important for fat digestion, absorption of vitamins A, D, E and K, intestinal function, hormone metabolite elimination, and metabolic signaling. Audrey also breaks down lesser-discussed gallbladder and bile-related patterns, including sludge, poor gallbladder emptying, altered bile flow, post-cholecystectomy diarrhea, fat intolerance, pale or greasy stools, bloating, reflux, urgency, and right-sided abdominal discomfort. The episode also explores why gallbladder dysfunction may be connected to a larger metabolic pattern involving insulin resistance, weight cycling, rapid weight loss, diet quality, liver health, and digestive dysfunction.

E: 353 5 Signs Your Digestion Needs Help
Got a question? Send Audrey a Text and she will answer in an episode. Digestive problems do not always look like severe stomach pain. In this episode of the Root Cause Revolution Podcast, Audrey Christie breaks down five common signs that digestion may need support: bloating, reflux, abnormal stool patterns, increasing food intolerances, and hormonal symptoms. You’ll learn why persistent bloating may reflect problems with digestion, fermentation or motility, why reflux is not simply a “too much stomach acid” problem, what your bowel movements can reveal about digestion and elimination, and why an ever-growing food restriction list may be a clue that something deeper has changed. Audrey also explains the connection between digestion, liver function, bile, the microbiome and hormone metabolism. Instead of treating bloating, reflux, constipation, food reactions and hormonal symptoms as completely separate issues, this episode will help you begin looking for the larger pattern behind them. If you are tired of guessing, cycling through supplements, or eliminating more and more foods without understanding why your symptoms persist, a Root Cause Review can help connect the dots. This review includes a health history and symptom assessment, available lab review, a 45 min session, and a personalized starter plan so you leave with clarity and a clear place to start.

E: 352 Stomach Acid 2026 Update
Got a question? Send Audrey a Text and she will answer in an episode. Today we're revisiting one of the most requested topics on this show: stomach acid. If you've been listening for a while, you know I did a deep dive on heartburn and PPIs a while back. Today is the 2026 update. What's changed, what's gotten clearer, and what I want you to know if you're still dealing with reflux, indigestion, or you're still on an acid-suppressing medication. Let's bust the myth right out of the gate again, because it's still the most common misunderstanding I hear. Heartburn does not automatically mean you're making too much acid. Most of the time, it's the opposite. And I still see this taught to patients in exam rooms, in pharmacy pamphlets, in the way these medications are marketed. So today we're going deep. Mechanisms, testing, medication nuance, and what's actually changed in my clinical thinking since I first covered this.

It never actually settles down; it just changes shape. In this episode, Audrey breaks down the difference between a rigid schedule and a routine that actually survives real life, including the minimum version of morning light, movement, grounding, and gratitude that kept her connected to herself during a chaotic cross-country move.

E: 350 The 5 Root Causes Behind Nearly Every Chronic Health Problem (And Where to Start)
Got a question? Send Audrey a Text and she will answer in an episode. Today's episode is one that I've been meaning to do for a long time, and it might be one of the most important episodes I've recorded. We're talking about the five root causes behind nearly every chronic health problem I see in my practice. Here's the thing that keeps coming up over and over in my practice. I will see 15 women in a single week. Pick any random 3: One has high blood pressure. One has PCOS. One has arthritis. Three completely different diagnoses, three completely different treatment plans from their conventional providers, often three completely different specialists. And when I sit down with each of them and we start looking upstream at what is actually driving what's happening in their body, they often have the same five imbalances. Sometimes four of the same five. Sometimes all five. Different diseases. Same terrain. In this episode, we cover: fatigue, Hashimoto's thyroiditis, cholesterol, psoriasis, migraines, insulin resistance, and anxiety.

E: 349 Summer Is When Next Winter's Vitamin D Is Built
Got a question? Send Audrey a Text and she will answer in an episode. What are you doing right now to prepare for January? What would you say? Most of you would tell me about your supplement cabinet. Maybe a vitamin D capsule you remember to take some days and forget on others. Here's the thing. The vitamin D you'll actually have in your body in January was mostly made in June, July, and August. Not from a bottle. From the sun. And if you're not using this window right now, you are already behind before winter even shows up. You've heard me talk before about the relationship between cholesterol and vitamin D, and I want to build on that today because it matters more right now than at any other point in the year.

E:346 What Actually Changes Outcomes (And What Doesn't)
Got a question? Send Audrey a Text and she will answer in an episode. Here is something I have observed after more than 20 years working in health and wellness. When people are not getting the results they want they almost always assume the answer is more complexity. A different protocol. A more advanced test. A newer supplement. A better biohack. And I understand that impulse completely. I lived it. When something is not working the brain wants to solve it by adding something. By finding the missing piece that must be out there somewhere more sophisticated than what you are already doing. But in most cases — not all, but most — the missing piece is not more complexity. It is more consistency with the fundamentals that were never fully in place to begin with. We are tackling that today, what is base zero, and the 5 pillars of the foundation, and how they can help.

E: 345 Why Hormone Solutions Don't Hold for Some People
Got a question? Send Audrey a Text and she will answer in an episode. Today, we are going into something I see play out in my practice every single week. And I have been wanting to do this episode for a while because I think it needs to be said clearly and without a lot of hedging. We are talking about why hormone solutions don't work for some people. And before I go any further, I want to set the record straight on what this episode is and is not. This is not an anti-hormone therapy episode. This is not an anti-medication episode. I take a yes-and approach to medicine. Conventional tools have their place. Hormone replacement therapy has helped a lot of women. GLP-1 medications have real clinical value in the right context. I am not here to tear any of that down. What I am here to do is talk about the piece that keeps getting skipped. The upstream work. The foundational layer that has to be in place for any of those tools to actually do what they are supposed to do and keep doing it. Because when that layer is missing, I do not care how good the tool is. It will not hold. And I see this pattern constantly. So let's talk about it.

E: 344 What Your Thyroid Labs Are Actually Reflecting
Got a question? Send Audrey a Text and she will answer in an episode. Your thyroid labs came back "normal." So why do you still feel terrible? If you have been exhausted, foggy, and frustrated despite doing everything your doctor told you to do — including taking your thyroid medication — this episode is for you. This week, we are breaking down why the thyroid is rarely the root cause of thyroid symptoms, what your labs are actually reflecting, and the upstream drivers that conventional medicine almost never checks. She also shares the story of a client who had been on thyroid medication for 13 years, felt terrible the entire time, and is now completely off her medication and thriving — not because her thyroid was fixed, but because the real root causes were finally addressed. In this episode: Why TSH is a pituitary marker, not a thyroid marker How metabolic dysfunction silently suppresses thyroid conversion The role of minerals, gut health, and chronic stress in thyroid function Why thyroid medication is often incomplete without upstream support What it actually looks like to address thyroid symptoms at the root If you want to understand what your own labs might be reflecting, grab the free Metabolic Scorecard in the show notes.

E: 342 Menopause Didn’t Break Your Metabolism — What Actually Changed
Got a question? Send Audrey a Text and she will answer in an episode. There’s a new study circulating that says menopause doesn’t impact metabolism. And on the surface… that sounds reassuring. But if you’re in your 40s or 50s and feel like: nothing changed, but everything changed you’re doing the same things, but getting different results your labs are “normal,” but you don’t feel normal 👉 this episode is for you Because here’s the truth: The study didn’t say metabolism doesn’t change. It showed that calorie burn may not change significantly. But metabolism is more than calories. In this episode, we break down: what the research actually measured (and what it didn’t) why metabolism can feel “slower” even when it’s not how muscle mass impacts metabolic function the role of stress, recovery, and circadian rhythm why your body responds differently to the same inputs This is the shift most women are missing: 👉 it’s not just what you eat 👉 it’s how your body is responding And that response changes during perimenopause and menopause. If you’ve been told: “It’s just aging” or “everything looks normal” …this will help you understand what’s actually happening underneath.

E: 341 The 3 Hidden Patterns Behind Fatigue, Weight Gain, and “Normal” Labs
Got a question? Send Audrey a Text and she will answer in an episode. If you feel like you’re doing everything right… but nothing is working — this episode is for you. “I’ve tried everything.” “My labs are normal.” “My doctor says I’m fine.” “I still feel awful.” These are the exact phrases I hear every single day. And what I want you to understand is this: 👉 Your symptoms are not random. 👉 They follow patterns. In this episode, I walk you through the three most common metabolic patterns I see in practice that are driving the majority of symptoms — even when standard labs look “normal.” We break down: • Why inflammation is not the root problem (and what actually drives it) • How blood sugar instability can exist long before diagnosis • The role of circadian rhythm and your environment in metabolism • Why “doing everything right” still isn’t working • What your labs may be missing — and what to look for instead This is the shift from guessing… to understanding. Because once you understand the pattern, you can finally start making progress.

E: 340 Why Meal Timing, Light, and Sleep Matter More Than Diet for Metabolic Health
Got a question? Send Audrey a Text and she will answer in an episode. We didn’t change her diet… and everything changed. In just over 30 days, her C-reactive protein (CRP) dropped from 36.6 to 0.8 — a 97% reduction in inflammation — without changing her calories, macros, or food quality. So what actually changed? In this episode, I break down the real drivers of metabolic health that most people overlook: how meal timing impacts insulin sensitivity why light exposure controls cortisol, inflammation, and energy the role of sleep in regulating metabolism and immune function how circadian rhythm acts as the control system for your body If you’ve been eating “clean,” tracking macros, and still not seeing results… this episode will help you understand why. Your metabolism is not controlled by food alone. It is controlled by the signals your body receives from your environment. When you change the signal, your body changes its response.
