STRESS— can be caused by numerous endogenous and exogenous sources. Common stressors include mental, emotional, physical, dietary, and biochemical imbalances. Your adrenals (small walnut shaped little glands that live above the kidneys) are responsible for managing the effects of stress on your body. • If you have chronic stress and ‘pedal to the metal syndrome’ the communication between the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenals can suffer. The hypothalamus is the master conductor. It gathers feedback from the rest of the body and tells the pituitary gland what needs to happen. The pituitary gland then tells the adrenals, thyroid, ovaries, and gonads how much hormone to secrete. This feedback system is called the HP-A axis. If there is miscommunication issues in this feedback system you may have difficulty slowing down, relaxing, or regenerating. • Your adrenals produce cortisol to handle acute stressful situations. If stress continues and becomes chronic, your body cannot maintain the high output. This will cause your cortisol levels to drop which then ⬆️ inflammation, ⬇️ digestion and ⬇️ the immune system. • DHEA is our feel good hormone and primarily produced by the adrenals. It is the hormone that is key to our energy, vitality, cardiovascular health, and supporting healthy mood and emotions. • Measuring daily cortisol output can help gather information about many factors: are my adrenals hyper-secreting cortisol and contributing to insomnia? Is my body primarily in a catabolic (breaking down) or anabolic (rebuilding) state? Are my low cortisol levels causing issues with hormones, immunity, mood, fatigue, and staying asleep? • Food sensitivities can keep the immune system revved up and have a negative impact on cortisol levels. • Your adrenals also have a close relationship with blood sugar management. • Find balance in your life. Reduce your stressors and support your HP-A axis 💚

Dressing can make or break a salad 🥗. I encourage you to make your own salad dressing- you control the ingredients and it will taste so much better than store bought!

It was like playing one of my favorite childhood games—WHACK A MOLE! Trying to film the little bubbles from the fermenting kimchi was fun. Eat your probiotics, people. A healthy digestive system is key to your healing.
