Do you feel in control of your eating earlier in the day—only to have cravings become much louder that afternoon or evening?

It may not be a simple lack of willpower. Skipping meals, not eating enough protein or fiber, poor sleep, stress, habits, food cues, and midlife hormone changes may all play a role.

In this 15–20-minute Facebook Live, Bradley Shepherd, DC, CFMP, will explain why cravings may become stronger later in the day, how cravings differ from physical hunger, and what your eating, sleep, and stress patterns may be telling you.

You’ll also learn practical ways to make cravings easier to manage—without shame, extreme dieting, or declaring war on your kitchen after 7:00 p.m.

This event is for general education and is not medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

Do you ever finish a meal, yet food is still on your mind? Maybe you’re planning your next snack, fighting a craving, or wondering why it feels so hard to stop thinking about food.

That constant mental chatter is often called food noise.

In this 15–20-minute Facebook Live, Bradley Shepherd, DC, CFMP, will explain what food noise is, how hormones that help control hunger and fullness may play a role, and why these thoughts may become louder during midlife.

You’ll also learn practical ways to recognize the pattern—without shame, extreme dieting, or blaming everything on willpower.

This event is for general education and is not medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

Have you been told that everything looks normal—even though pain, poor sleep, fatigue, or brain fog is changing what you can say yes to?

In this 15–20-minute Facebook Live, Bradley Shepherd, DC, CFMP, will explain how looking at symptoms together can reveal useful patterns, how hormone and nutrient imbalances may be part of the picture, and how nutrition may support realistic next steps.

This event is educational and is not medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

How Nutrition Influences Pain and Hormones

If you’re dealing with chronic pain, fatigue, poor sleep, brain fog, or slow recovery, your nutrition may be influencing more than you realize.

What you eat can affect blood sugar, inflammation, energy, recovery, and the hormone signals that help your body function each day. And when those systems are out of sync, pain may feel more intense or harder to manage.

Could the way you’re fueling your body be influencing how you feel?

In this Facebook Live, we’ll explore how nutrition can support healthier hormone patterns and why that may matter for women dealing with chronic pain and other frustrating symptoms.

You may have had routine bloodwork done and been told that everything looks fine. But your back or joint pain still comes and goes. You feel tired even after resting. Your sleep is not what it used to be, your thinking feels foggy, and your body takes longer to recover.

It can be frustrating and confusing when several symptoms keep showing up together, but the usual tests do not explain the pattern.

**Could some helpful clues be hiding in hormone markers that are not always included in basic lab panels?**

In today’s Facebook Live, we’ll discuss hormones such as insulin, DHEA, testosterone, estrogen, progesterone, and cortisol. We’ll explore how these hormones may offer more context about patterns involving stress, energy, sleep, inflammation, pain sensitivity, and recovery.

This does not mean that everyone needs every hormone tested. It means that when several symptoms appear together, looking at the wider pattern may help us ask better questions about what the body is experiencing.

It’s not just about the numbers.

It’s about the questions they inspire.

Many people look at their blood work and ask, “Am I normal?” But sometimes a lab result can lead to better questions about how your body is functioning, why certain symptoms keep showing up, and what patterns may be worth paying attention to.

In this Live, we’ll explore:

→ A few common blood markers many people have seen on their lab reports
→ What those markers may suggest about energy, inflammation, recovery, and hormone balance
→ Why numbers should be viewed in context with symptoms and patterns
→ How to use lab information to have more informed conversations about your health

This is not about diagnosing yourself.

It’s about learning how to better understand the signals your body may be sending.

If you’ve ever looked at your blood work and wondered, “What does this actually mean?” this conversation will help connect the dots.
