Dr. Wool on "Reclaim Vitality" Podcast

By Dr Dan Wool, NMD4/29/2025
Dr. Wool on "Reclaim Vitality" Podcast

This week, I joined my friend, Dr. Onna Lo MD, an Ivy League Trained Integrative and Functional Medicine practitioner, who is dedicated to helping high performing women reclaim clarity, energy and take back control of their health.


We talked about a common GI condition among high performing women -- bloating(!) -- including some causes that are not often looked at.


From Dr. Lo: 


"You’re doing all the right things. Crushing deadlines. Leading teams. Juggling responsibilities like a pro. But if you’re constantly battling bloating, fatigue, and gut issues—your body might be sending you a powerful message you can’t afford to ignore.


As high-achieving women, we’re often taught to push through discomfort and normalize feeling “off.” But thriving in your career and your body isn’t about ignoring these signs—it’s about understanding them.


Today, we’re pulling back the curtain on one of the most common (and commonly overlooked) struggles my patients face: bloating.


In this conversation, I’m joined by gut and hormone naturopathic specialist Dr. Dan Wool to explore the common and uncommon causes of bloating among high-achieving women—and what you can do to fix it. 


We dive deep into:


Why your fast-paced lifestyle could be sabotaging your digestion

How hormones like low progesterone and stress physiology impact bloating

The hidden digestive dysfunctions (like dysmotility and SIBO) most women aren't told about

Practical, real-world tips to feel lighter, more energized, and more in tune with your body again


Whether you're struggling with occasional discomfort or daily frustrations, this episode will give you new insights—and real solutions."
