The Liver-Hormone Link: How to Detox Without the Gimmicks (And the Products I Use to Support It) | Ep 359

Author: Erin Holt May 6, 2025 Duration: 41:45

If you’ve ever felt like your hormones are off, this episode is for you. Erin is joined by functional dietitian Nicole Antes, MS, RDN, to unpack a MASSIVELY overlooked topic in hormone health: the liver.

Together, they explore how nutrient deficiencies, alcohol, synthetic fragrances, and even your cookware may be burdening your detox pathways and leading to hormonal imbalances like estrogen dominance.

Nicole shares real-world client cases and practical strategies to support your liver, gut, and overall detoxification without expensive fads or restrictive cleanses. You’ll learn why liver support goes far beyond supplements, what your poop says about your hormone health, and how simple lifestyle swaps can make a profound impact.

This is the episode that connects the dots between gut, liver, and hormones in a way that finally makes sense.

In This Episode:

  • Why non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is rising, even in seemingly healthy women
  • How daily exposure to “low dose” endocrine disruptors like fragrance can disrupt hormone function
  • The gut-liver-hormone triangle - and why pooping daily is essential for estrogen detox
  • Nicole’s favorite supplements to support methylation and reduce estrogen dominance symptoms
  • Smart, doable swaps for non-toxic living, from castor oil packs to cookware and water filters
