Mold, histamine, stubborn weight, and that “why is my body reacting to everything?” spiral… this episode is for you.

In this week’s Keep It Clear episode, we sat down with Elizabeth Aylor (Certified Strength & Conditioning Specialist, Holistic Nutritionist, and FDN-P) to unpack the real reasons weight loss can feel impossible even when you’re “doing everything right.”

Elizabeth shares her full journey from lifelong skin and gut issues, to OCD and extreme dieting, to mast cell activation and living on three foods, to discovering mold toxicity and thyroid conversion issues that derailed her health and body composition fast. You’ll hear exactly how mold can drive histamine intolerance, anxiety, inflammation, and weight loss resistance, plus why extreme elimination diets can feel like they help… until they don’t.

This is a super practical conversation about foundations first, testing wisely, and building a body that can actually handle detox, carbs, training, and real life again.

In this episode, we get into:

  • How mold exposure can drive histamine intolerance, anxiety, inflammation, and weight loss resistance (and why you can be exposed vs colonized)
  • Why extreme elimination diets (including carnivore) can quiet symptoms short-term, but still miss the root cause
  • The digestion piece almost everyone skips: stomach acid, absorption, and why “you’re not what you eat, you’re what you absorb” matters for body composition
  • The foundations that move the needle first: sleep, stress load, bowel movements, gentle drainage support, and realistic strength training
  • Thyroid conversion issues (T4 to reverse T3) and why basic labs can miss what’s really going on

Testimonials

"I just wanted to let you know that this program works!!!

I have never struggled with acne but then I turned 21 and then I broke out all over my fave. I never wanted to go anywhere and didn't want to talk to anybody. I became very depressed and angry. There were times I wanted to quit the program because I felt like nothing was working! By the grace of God, He got me through and I am healed! I just wanted to encourage everyone to keep going!!! You got this! Don't give up! Good things are coming!"

"I actually enjoy the look of my face with less make-up."

 I used to wear a lot of powder and concealer to cover the break out areas, as well as to hide my scars. Both my breakouts and scars are lessening in amount and redness!!
