I Lost My Gallbladder Because I Didn't Take Care of Myself
I was in my early 30s.
Years of stress, ignoring what my body was telling me, putting everything and everyone else first - it caught up with me.
Gallstones. An infection. Surgery.
My body sent me the biggest bill of my life.
And it was the wake up call I needed to finally get serious about my gut - and stop treating my health like it could wait.
What Most People Don't Know About Life Without a Gallbladder
Your gallbladder stores bile and releases it in controlled amounts to break down fats. When it's gone - bile drips continuously into your gut. Over time, that irritates the gut wall and makes digestion so much harder.
Which means gut support stopped being optional for me. It became non-negotiable.
The Three Things I Do Every Single Day
Digestive Enzymes - before every meal. Without a gallbladder, my body can't break down fats the way it used to. Yet, not all digestive enzymes are created equal. USANA's formula covers a full spectrum of enzymes - breaking down proteins, fats, and carbohydrates - so my body actually absorbs what I eat, not just consume it! Digestive Enzymes bridges that gap so I can enjoy my food without paying for it later.
Probiotics - daily good gut bacteria is everything. Probiotics restores and maintains my digestive ecosystem - keeping it balanced, strong, and resilient. And since 70% of your immune system lives in your gut, this one does double duty. What makes this one different is that it actually survives the journey to your gut. Do you know that many probiotics don't make it past stomach acid? USANA's probiotic is formulated to reach where it needs to go and actually work. I've felt incredible results since I started the Usana probiotics!
Fibergy - first thing every morning. This feeds my good gut bacteria and builds the protective mucosal lining - the barrier that shields my gut wall from the continuous bile drip. And you know what? Usana Fibergy is not your average fibre supplement. Fibergy is a prebiotic blend that feeds your good gut bacteria and helps rebuild the protective lining of your gut - something most fibre products don't even address. This one is non-negotiable!
Here's What I Want to Say to You.
As a CEOBabe, your Health and Energy department is not optional. It is the foundation everything else is built on.
You cannot lead your life, show up for your family, or build your dreams on a body that is running on empty.
Your health is your most important department. Invest in it before it sends you a bill.
If you want to know more about what I take and why, reply to this post and I'll share more with you personally.
With gratitude ♥️ Elynn
P.S. I still love my food. I just love my body more now.
