Jami Rugg is with us today… She won the Grand Prize of a visit to the Hilltop. She shares her amazing story of recovery from chronic disease with the help of THM and how she used the principles to at first help her to gain much needed healthy weight… then later in her life… how to use the principles to lose fat.
Her story is so impactful. She went from needing assistance for every day tasks to flourishing in her home. She shares how nothing is too hard with trust and God and support from community.

Ep. 437 The Sugar Addiction No One Talks About — and How to Heal with Wendy Speake
What would happen if we set down sugar for 40 days? Back in 2014, Wendy began—with an organic movement—asking herself and other women this very question… And the movement caught on!
The thousands who joined her realized part way into it that this wasn’t just about a health fast– it was a spiritual fast. Wendy and her friends were faced with the fact that they’d been going to sugar for comfort, instead of going to God. Rather than going from sugar-high to sugar-high, it was time to turn back to the Most High!
In this podcast we discuss the physical, mental and spiritual benefits that happened when women joined Wendy and fasted from sugar for 40 days. And how that led to a future life free from sugar’s bondage for so many. (And how that crossed paths with Trim Healthy Mama.)
Wendy Speake is the author of multiple books, including The 40-Day Sugar Fast, The 40-Day Social Media Fast, and The 40-Day Feast. She’s also co-author of the popular parenting book Triggers: Exchanging Parents' Angry Reactions for Gentle, Biblical Responses. Known for the uncanny way she meets women in their most common struggles, from sugar-addiction to mommy-anger, Wendy uses every opportunity to point readers to the healing and transforming
power found in God's Word. Find out more at wendyspeake.com and 40daysugarfast.com

Ep. 435 Top 3 Ways To Rebuild Your Gut Microbiome
Episode 435: Rebuild Your Microbiome
The Meat: What are the top 3 ways to rebuild your microbiome and the health of your gut? You want an INVINCIBLE microbiome! We’re giving you the keys to the car.
Number #1: How to rebuild and cultivate the health of your microbiome…KEFIR. (Not the store bought stuff).
Traditional, home fermented kefir.
You can get powders from Cultured Food Life (our partner).
Even those who think it’s too hard… You can do it!
You get up to 50 strains of healing bacteria… Drink daily if you can.
Purchase Easy Starter: https://store.trimhealthymama.com/product/easy-kefir-powder/
Number #2: How to rebuild and cultivate the health of your microbiome… BAOBAB.
Up to 2-3 TBSP per day
Regular baobab consumption significantly increases gut microbiome diversity, as seen in both Hadza tribespeople and modern users, supporting better metabolic health.
Baobab helps lower blood sugar and improve insulin sensitivity, partly due to its tartness and powerful polyphenols like epicatechin and procyanidins.
It naturally promotes GLP-1 production, mimicking the effects of some blood sugar-lowering medications, especially when combined with kefir.
Baobab is 70–80% fiber, with two-thirds being prebiotic, which fuels gut bacteria and leads to the creation of health-boosting postbiotics.

Number #3: How to rebuild and cultivate the health of your microbiome… Fermented Plants.
Compared to high-fiber foods alone, fermented veggies show significantly stronger and faster gut-health benefits.
Fermented veggies increase gut microbe diversity, improving whole-body health and immune function.
They help lower blood lipids, reduce inflammation, and support healthy weight and blood pressure.
Fermented foods reduce the activation of immune cells and decrease inflammatory proteins like interleukin 6.
