## Resource

In this episode, Madonna Guy (Naturopath & Kinesiologist) and David Shiel (Holistic Family Counsellor) dive into the deep connection between stress, survival mode and the body’s ability to heal . They explore how emotional overwhelm, family dynamics, workplace pressure and unresolved trauma keep the nervous system stuck in “threat mode,” blocking digestion, sleep, metabolism, immune balance and repair. When the gut is inflamed, the mind becomes reactive; when the mind is overloaded, the gut shuts down — and the cycle continues. Together, they unpack practical ways to shift the body out of chronic stress and into healing: calming the gut, supporting natural peptide pathways, reducing inflammation, improving absorption, and creating emotional safety. Madonna also shares the natural tools she uses in clinic — including TriGLP, stem‑cell support, redox signalling, detoxification and gene‑supporting nutrients — to help the body regain balance from the inside out. 🌿 Product Links in Context (clean, professional wording) Here are the resources Madonna mentioned in the episode for those wanting to explore natural gut, metabolic and cellular support: You’ll hear Madonna talk about her long history with products that help balance weight, cravings and inflammation — HCG, pHix, Emulin5, ResistX, Berberine and more. But the newest addition she’s excited about is TriGLP , a natural GLP‑1, GLP‑2 and GIP support formula that helps maintain muscle, balance blood sugar, calm hunger, support gut repair and shift inflammation. It’s drops, not injections, and can even be used alongside GLP‑1 medications to support muscle, collagen and nutrient levels.
