Midlife Conversations with Natalie Jill
Changing Conversations Around Age, Potential, and Possibility for Women in MIDLIFE
Parasites are really common. There is a misconception that parasites are from third world countries and that you must travel to a tropical place to get one — but the truth is that parasites don’t know “borders”. There are no borders. Everything that humans have are carried from continent to continent (we saw this happen with the pandemic).
Tracy believes that optimal health is a fundamental right for all humanity, not just a privilege for a select few.
Helping people activate their vitality and feel alive has been Tracy’s life long mission. Growing up in a missionary home cultivated her profound sense of compassion and her desire to educate on the simple foundations needed to look and feel our best.
This week Natalie Jill sits down with the founder of ENERGYbits. Catharine started ENERGYbits after her sister was diagnosed with breast cancer and advised by her oncologist that an alkaline diet would help her heal.

For women 40 and over, FIBER IS MAGIC. I repeat, fiber is magic! And many people are missing the mark here. First, fiber is great for slowing down the rate at which insulin attacks things in your body — with fiber, it’s a slow release, not a hard and heavy insulin hit. Second, is that when we eat fiber, we release hormones very differently. When we age, it’s known that we can have “estrogen dominance” that naturally occurs as progesterone starts to dip. One of the natural ways you can STABILIZE your hormones during this time is to eat fiber. The fiber works with your microbiome to release the estrogen! This is one reason it’s so important to not leave these out of your diet
Diets should do just three things:
With that trifecta, you will have freedom and transform — and spoiler alert, bone broth is the superstar when it comes to this. Your gut wall and intestines have a VERY thin layer of protection, and it’s very very easy to puncture. This is why it’s important to have something to HEAL it (or as Dr. Kellyann says “spackle” it!) Bone broth does this thanks to both Glycine and gelatin! Glycine (an amino acid), which is found in bone broth, has actually been found in studies to heal and seal the gut wall. So bone broth is your one, two, punch to healing your gut and increasing your anti-aging effects.
Are you a vegetarian? You can look up “potassium broth”. It’s not quite as great as bone broth, but it definitely checks off some of the boxes.
Benefits of Bone Broth:
You can see more on bone broth (and find a recipe) in this previous Benefits of Bone Broth blog.
