Understanding the Gut-Hormone-Brain Triad and What It Means For Your Health w/ Alissa Hodgson

The Health Detective Podcast by Functional Diagnostic Nutrition

When it comes to lasting health, it’s never just one thing. Your gut, hormones, and brain are in constant communication—and the health of one system directly impacts the others.

This “triad” is anchored by the liver and influences nearly every area of your well-being. If you only address one system in isolation, you may see short-term relief, but eventually metabolic chaos catches up.

In this episode of the Health Detective Podcast with Alissa Hodgson, we dive into the gut–hormone–brain connection—what it means, why it matters, and how a comprehensive approach creates better outcomes for everyone, from busy women navigating hormone changes to families supporting loved ones with Down syndrome.
