Manage episode 501567590 series 3408803
This episode of Integrative You Radio dives deep into the real root causes of lactose intolerance, debunking the common myths about genetics and focusing on the body-mind connection. Dr. Nicole Rivera and Dr. Nikki Rizzo break down why gallbladder and liver health are at the core of lactose intolerance, and why it’s not just about what runs in your family. The conversation also explores how micro and macro life stressors, emotional expression, and daily choices all impact your physical health—and how true healing is possible when you address both the physical and emotional layers.

3 Key Takeaways:
- Lactose intolerance is rarely “just genetics.” It’s often a sign of underlying gallbladder dysfunction and liver overload—usually from years of accumulated toxins, not just your DNA.
- Your emotional health is directly tied to your physical health.Micro-stresses (like tolerating a toxic boss or relationship) and macro traumas both affect your gallbladder and liver, impacting your body’s ability to process foods like dairy.
- Symptoms can be part of healing, not just a problem.Discomfort during detox or emotional breakthroughs is often your body’s way of resolving old wounds—so don’t panic, get curious, and seek support if you need it.
Quotes:
- “Lactose intolerance stems from gallbladder dysfunction… If you can’t break down lactose, it’s because your gallbladder is not working properly. It’s not just your genes.”
- “Sometimes symptoms are the body’s cry for help, and sometimes they’re part of the resolution. The key is knowing the difference—and not giving up on yourself.”
