How can Yarrow Functional Medicine Help YOU With Gut Health and Digestion?
Gut Health & Digestive Support with Amy Stetson
Do you eat "healthy" but still deal with bloating, discomfort, or an unpredictable gut that limits your plans? At Yarrow Functional Wellness, Amy Stetson, MSN, FDN-P, provides comprehensive, virtual gut health support to help you get to the root of your digestive issues — not just mask the symptoms.
"Healing from the root, not just the symptom"
Who This Is For
Amy Stetson supports clients across a wide range of digestive concerns, from chronic discomfort to complex gut dysfunction. Whether you've been dealing with symptoms for years or you're just starting to notice a pattern, Yarrow Functional Wellness can help you understand what's actually going on.
Common Digestive Symptoms Amy Stetson Helps With
Yarrow Functional Wellness supports clients experiencing:
Chronic bloating and gas
Leaky gut and intestinal permeability
Irregular bowel movements (constipation, diarrhea, or both)
Food sensitivities and unpredictable reactions to eating
Complex gut dysfunction that hasn't responded to other approaches
Chronic digestive discomfort with no clear diagnosis
A gut that feels unpredictable enough to limit travel, social plans, or daily life
As Amy Stetson's mentor, Michelle Rogers, ND, puts it: "You cannot detox if your gut lining is leaky and inflamed. You cannot heal the gut if the adrenals are burned out." That's why Yarrow Functional Wellness looks at digestion as part of a connected system — not an isolated problem.
Understanding Leaky Gut and Digestive Dysfunction
A central concept in Amy Stetson's approach is leaky gut, or intestinal permeability — a state where the gut lining becomes more porous than it should be, which can contribute to a wide range of downstream symptoms. Rather than treating leaky gut as an isolated issue, Amy Stetson evaluates it alongside adrenal function, food sensitivities, and overall inflammation, since these systems influence one another.
Practical Gut Health Tools You'll Learn
Beyond lab testing and supplements, Amy Stetson equips clients with practical, everyday strategies to support digestion long-term, including:
Top tips for eating with awareness — including how the way you eat (not just what you eat) affects digestion
Guidance on probiotics and gut-supportive, fermented foods
Vagus nerve support strategies, since the vagus nerve plays a key role in digestion and the gut-brain connection
What to expect during a Herxheimer (detox) reaction, so you're not caught off guard by temporary symptoms during healing
How to read ingredient labels and identify hidden gut irritants in packaged foods
Virtual Gut Health Support, Wherever You Live
Yarrow Functional Wellness is a 100% virtual practice, so Amy Stetson can support your gut health journey no matter where you live. Lab kits are shipped to your home or completed at a local lab near you, and all consultations happen by phone, video, or email.
What Working Together Looks Like
Gut health support at Yarrow Functional Wellness typically happens through the Yarrow Method — starting with a comprehensive intake and lab testing, followed by a detailed results and recommendations call, a personalized Diet, Rest, Exercise, Sleep, and Supplement protocol, and ongoing support to track your progress and adjust your plan over time.

How Amy Stetson Approaches Gut Health: The Six R's
Rather than guessing which diet or supplement might help, Amy Stetson uses functional lab testing — including the GI-MAP stool analysis — to get a clear picture of your gut microbiome, inflammation markers, and digestive function. From there, Yarrow Functional Wellness builds a personalized protocol using the "Six R's" framework:
Remove — identify and remove factors irritating the gut (certain foods, pathogens, or stressors)
Replace — replace what may be missing, such as digestive enzymes or stomach acid support
Reinoculate — support healthy gut flora
Repair — support repair of the gut lining
Rebalance — address lifestyle factors like sleep and stress that affect digestion
Retest — re-evaluate labs to confirm progress and adjust the protocol as needed
