How Malnourishment Plays a Role in the Gut Brain Axis and Gut Microbiome with Marci Evans RD/N
If you’ve been struggling with bloating, constipation, or gut issues on top of period loss or infertility… this episode is your missing puzzle piece.
Because here’s the truth most people are skipping:
👉 Your digestion isn’t broken.
👉 Your body isn’t “too sensitive.”
👉 And you don’t need another restrictive protocol.
In this powerful conversation, I’m joined by eating disorder dietitian Marci Evans to unpack the real reason digestive issues are so common in period loss and fertility struggles—and how malnourishment impacts your gut-brain axis, microbiome, and overall healing.
This episode will completely change how you think about gut health, recovery, and what your body actually needs to heal.
Marci Evans is a registered dietitian specializing in eating disorder recovery, body image healing, and intuitive eating. She works from a weight-inclusive, anti-oppression lens and has trained countless clinicians in this space.
She brings both clinical expertise and deep compassion to this conversation—and you’re going to feel that.
