If they have knowledge that can help us heal - body, mind and soul - I'm happy to have a chat with them and share with you!\" As my skills improve (technology wise) I'll be sharing information in an editorial / information sharing format as well. Madonna has been studying healing modalities for 3 decades and has been a kinesiology trainer for over 15 years. As a naturopath and kinesiologist, energetic healer and nutritionist, herbalist and homeopath, radio guest for a dozen years - there is a massive amount of knowledge that she has to draw from.

In the video, I explained how the vagus nerve, gut integrity, inflammation, metabolic regulation, and stress hormones all interact as one interconnected system. When someone has lived through early-life trauma or persistent stress, this entire circuit becomes dysregulated — and no amount of “positive thinking” can override biology that’s been pushed into survival mode for years. This is why so many people feel like they’ve “tried everything” yet still struggle. I also introduced the concept of Tri‑GLP, which supports the GLP‑1, GLP‑2, and GIP pathways simultaneously. These pathways regulate appetite, blood sugar, inflammation, gut repair, and even aspects of mood and nervous system function. While bitter receptors can stimulate GLP‑1 release, Tri‑GLP works downstream to support the deeper metabolic, gut, and neuroimmune repair that trauma and chronic stress disrupt. For many people, this triple-pathway support may be the missing biological piece that helps their system finally shift out of survival mode and into healing. 🌟 #Naturopath #NaturopathicMedicine #Kinesiology #HolisticHealth #FunctionalMedicine #IntegrativeHealth #MindBodyConnection #GutBrainAxis #VagusNerve #VagusNerveHealing #TraumaInformed #ACEScore #ChronicDepression #MentalHealthMatters #Neuroinflammation #MetabolicHealth #MetabolicHealing #Incretins #GLP1 #GLP2 #GIP #TriGLP #TripleAgonist #GutHealth #GutHealing #Inflammation #InsulinResistance #IncretinResistance #WeightLossScience #HolisticWeightLoss #RootCauseMedicine #WholeBodyHealing #TraumaHealing #NervousS…","meta_description":"madonnaguy.myorygn.co As a naturopath and kinesiologist with over 30 years of clinical experience, I’ve seen firsthand how chronic depression, trauma, and…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":364,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/the-natural-alternative-with-madonna-guy-5290149/episodes/360-depressions-biological-roots-vagus-nerve-gut-health-incretin-hormones-peptides-glp1-glp2-gip/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-natural-alternative-with-madonna-guy-5290149/360-depressions-biological-roots-vagus-nerve-gut-health-incretin-hormones-peptides-glp1-glp2-gip.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
