Is Your “Healthy” Diet Making You Sick? The Missing Link in Wellness with Erin Holt
Show Notes:
You’re doing “everything right”—eating clean, working out, and taking supplements—but you still feel tired, inflamed, or bloated. Sound familiar? In this episode, Jen is joined by Erin Holt, a functional nutritionist and founder of the Functional Nutrition Academy. Erin shares the hidden reasons your body might be fighting back, even when your habits look healthy on paper. From trauma and stress to restrictive eating and the nervous system, this conversation reveals what wellness routines often leave out—and how to truly heal from the inside out.

- Your nervous system directly impacts digestion, hormones, and inflammation
- Over-supplementing or under-eating can keep you stuck in “healing mode”
- Functional labs are helpful, but context and coaching are key
- Erin’s Functional Nutrition Academy teaches practitioners a full-body approach to healing
- Gut health, hormone balance, and metabolism are all connected through nervous system function
