Fiber is one of the most overlooked tools for hormone balance, detoxification, and inflammation reduction. In midlife (perimenopause + menopause), it becomes even more essential as metabolism, estrogen clearance, and gut health shift.
Here’s why it matters:
Your body eliminates “used” hormones (like estrogen) through your stool.
If you’re not going #2 daily, those hormones can recirculate, contributing to estrogen dominance, bloating, mood swings, and stubborn weight gain.
A healthy gut = a more balanced brain, metabolism, and mood.
So many women come to us constipated — and within weeks of following the EMBODY Wellness Method™, they’re finally regular again. Daily elimination is one of the clearest signs your hormones and gut are on track. If you’re not going, your body isn’t fully detoxing.
That’s why fiber, hydration, movement, stress management, and liver support — everything we teach inside every EMBODY program — work together to optimize your body’s natural detox pathways.
