Focusing on simply “reducing your stress” can end up leaving us feeling more stressed out because the truth is, there are some stresses you can’t just opt out of, stop or reduce. I talk a lot about those in various episodes of the show, but this episode is about stresses you CAN do something about. Sometimes it’s about getting help or gaining better stress skills to manage the stresses that you can’t totally get rid of, but many things that are stressing you out may not be things you think of as stress at all.
Things like infections, oxidative stress, blood sugar imbalances, hormone disruptors or nutrient deficiencies. In this show I break down a number of stresses we can absolutely take off your plate and they don’t involve a housekeeper, nanny or personal assistant. They are all within your physiology and we can resolve or much better manage all of them.

One of THE BEST tools for your health is a CGM, continuous glucose monitor. It helps you effortlessly understand what foods work for you and even how stress and sleep impact your blood sugar allowing you to make changes in real time. A CGM also allows you to see your glucose variability (the difference between your highs and lows) which may be as important as how high your blood sugar runs. It’s an amazing tool and Nutrisense has my favorite interface with their app and dietitian support! It’s easy and straightforward and with code BETTEREVERYDAY at checkout you can save 30% off a subscription. Click here and be well on your way to better health.
