Episode #5: What’s Causing Your Bloating? It’s Not What You Think
Jul 04, 2025Bloating Isn’t Just Annoying—It’s a Message. Let’s Decode It.
In this practical and eye-opening solo episode, Dr. Anthea Todd breaks down what your bloating is really trying to tell you—through the lens of medical science, functional health, and energetic wisdom.
Whether you feel like you're six months pregnant after breakfast, experience daily bloating that no test can explain, or you've been told it's "just IBS," this episode helps you stop guessing—and start listening.
Dr. Anthea walks you through what’s actually happening in your gut, why conventional medicine might be missing the full picture, and how your four fundamentals (nervous system, metabolism, nutrients, and blood sugars) play a powerful role in what you feel after you eat.
You’ll also explore the energetic layer of digestion—how unresolved emotions, stress, and boundary violations can show up in the body as gas, discomfort, or inflammation.

-
Spot red flags that require urgent medical attention (and know when to see a doctor)
-
Understand what a bloated gut is trying to signal—even when your bloodwork is "normal"
-
Identify functional causes like low stomach acid, sluggish metabolism, or liver overload
-

-
Shift out of frustration and into empowered, body-led decisions
