So many people wonder why they don’t feel good, even if their doctors tell them their test results show that their numbers are within the normal range. Some suffer from low energy while others complain about brain fog. The truth is that nutrition plays a huge role in our health and hormones, and being more intentional about it could change how we enjoy life.
Chrissy has been a dietician for 10 years, and she’s seen so many trends that people think are helpful but are actually pulling the body away from how it’s supposed to function. She’s also seen a rise in the popularity of “hormone balancing tips” that are not rooted in real science. Skipping meals and restricting food through dieting stresses the body out so much that it triggers a domino effect on your health. The way people look at and think about food also adds to the mix, impacting the way the body absorbs all the nutrients and minerals that it needs to function at its best.
Tune into this episode to learn the science behind balanced nutrition and find out how to optimize your eating habits so you can give your body the energy, the health, and the love it deserves.
