Baby it's cold outside // Truth be told I'm always cold. I'm the person you'll find wearing socks in the summer 🤦🏽‍♀️
:
Two very common causes of cold intolerance in women are thyroid imbalance and poor circulation due to iron deficiency. If you're not sure what your levels are check with your doctor and get tested! Majority of the time there are other symptoms you may be experiencing that will allow your doctor to figure out exactly what's going on. Taking thyroid or iron supplements because you have 'low energy' may do more harm than good

BLOATING // do you see a women with a human baby or a food baby? 🙈 Bloating is one of THE most common digestive symptoms I see in practice so thought I would share some info on it!
:
Some common causes of bloating are:
👉 Constipation - this is a very common reason but the real question is what is causing constipation 🤔

👉 Low stomach acid - if your stomach isn't producing adequate stomach acid then it won't be able to breakdown food. Undigested food will attract bacteria in the gut leading to fermentation and excessive gas in the intestinal tract

👉 Pancreatic Insufficiency - your pancreas releases enzymes into the small intestine to start breaking down protein, fat, etc. Like low stomach acid, if your body isn't producing enough enzymes you won't be able to break down food and it will sit there and attract bacteria

👉 Food Sensitivites - if you are sensitive to a specific food your body will react with inflammation which can lead to a plethora of digestive and systemic symptoms

👉SIBO or Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth. There is so much to say about SIBO but long story short your small intestine is housing wayyyy too many bacteria so they are fermenting your food way quicker than they should leading to increased bloating with increased food consumption, even vegetables!

👉Hormonal imbalance - ever find yourself bloated before or during your period? Thank your hormones for that one
:
Many patients think bloating is normal because they've experienced it for so long but it's not! It's your body's way of telling you that something is up so let's find out what it is! Comment or message me if you have any questions :)

BURNOUT // Who's feeling this right now? A very common thing in this fast-paced, 'must get everything done today!' world. And ironically even more so around the holidays where the focus is supposed to be on resting and enjoying your surroundings
:
Burnout can be defined as emotional exhaustion, depersonalization and decreased sense of accomplishment. Everyone has different stressors and different reactions to stress however the underlying physiology is common - an imbalance in the cortisol hormone which can have upstream and downstream effects on thyroid hormones and reproductive hormones (more info coming on this topic!)
:
Do you feel stuck in a burnout cycle? There are many ways to help reset the stress response such as botanical medicine, supplements/diet changes, acupuncture and more!

If you want to get ahead of the game feel free to send me a message 😊

EUCALYPTUS // one of my favorite herbs/essential oil for this time of year! Eucalyptus is a great anti-spasmodic and relaxing expectorant, meaning it can reduce lung spasms and promote drainage of congested sinuses making it an ideal remedy for anyone suffering from respiratory distress due to asthma or the cold/flu.
🌱
HOW TO / Steam Inhalation - boil a small pot of water. Let cool for a few minutes and add 4-5 drops of eucalyptus essential oil. Place head over pot and cover with a towel. Take deep breaths for 10-15 minutes. Remove towel and feel alive!
🌱
HOW TO / Chest Rub - use your favorite carrier oil (coconut oil, olive oil, almond oil, jojoba oil...) and place 2-3 drops of eucalyptus essential oil. Mix together and rub onto chest, nose, forehead to relieve congestion
🌱
**toxic when congested
