🎙️ Episode 52: ACE's: The Hidden Link Between Childhood Trauma and Digestive Health



 



Have you had your gallbladder removed and are still struggling with bloating, abdominal pain, or unpredictable digestion? Did you know that experiences from your childhood—things you may have buried or forgotten—can still affect your gut today? In this episode, we explore how Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs), stress, and your gut-brain connection can impact digestion, and how God’s healing principles bring true restoration.



 



💫 In This Episode You’ll Discover:



✨ What ACEs (Adverse Childhood Experiences) are and how they can influence digestion, liver health, and post-gallbladder recovery. (There’s a 10-question ACEs PDF in the show notes under Resources.)



🧠 The top five ways childhood trauma affects your gut:



1️⃣ Gut-Brain Axis Disruption – How your stress history can create functional gut disorders like IBS.



2️⃣ Chronic Stress & Cortisol – How long-term stress weakens the gut lining and triggers inflammation.



3️⃣ Altered Gut Microbiome – How trauma can imbalance your gut bacteria and worsen digestive symptoms.



4️⃣ Increased Risk of GI Conditions – Why ACEs raise your risk for IBS, dyspepsia, and other digestive issues.



5️⃣ Amplified Symptoms – How past trauma can make existing GI problems more severe.



✨ Why ACEs indirectly impact the gallbladder and liver, even if they weren’t removed due to trauma.



💪 Practical steps for healing: professional support, building a supportive environment, self-care, stress management, and resilience-building.



🌱 How God’s healing principles can restore not only your gut but your heart and mind—rewiring your brain, calming your nervous system, and bringing a peace that truly passes understanding.



💭 Reflection prompts to help you identify the connections between past trauma, stress, and your digestion—and how to partner with God for lasting restoration.



 



If you’re ready to take control of your gut health, work through the effects of childhood stress, and experience true, holistic healing in your body and heart, this episode is for you.

📖 Key Scripture: 



Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
