With the latest insights, we strip away the myths and focus on the complex dance of metabolism, hormones, and genetics. Discover how abdominal fat is not just a matter of aesthetics, but a central player in the inflammation and insulin resistance story. We'll guide you through a balanced dietary approach, emphasizing the often-underrated roles of fiber and protein in blood sugar control, and how this ripples out to affect your metabolic health.

We'll discuss set point theory, which suggests your body has a comfortable weight it stubbornly clings to, and learn the strategies for real, sustainable change.

Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About PCOS Adrenal Health - PCOS Podcast

Text with your questions & comments for future episodes!

Everything You Ever Wanted to Know about PCOS Adrenal Health, Cortisol and PCOS, and the PCOS-adrenal connection.

Mentioned in the episode:

NAC: https://s.thorne.com/NRI4c
Inositol: https://s.thorne.com/esr0F
Probiotic: https://s.thorne.com/RaN5D
Rhodiola: https://s.thorne.com/mVyrH
Theanine: https://s.thorne.com/ABrxm

In today's episode, I'll share not just my personal anecdotes but also dive into the signs, symptoms, and the nuanced process of diagnosing adrenal PCOS. We'll also unpack the role of stress hormones, the relevance of cortisol rhythm over mere blood tests, and discuss why adrenal health matters more than we might think, especially for those of us leading high-pressure lives.

Imagine being a high-flying professional or a dedicated athlete and discovering that your unwavering commitment to success could be silently contributing to hormone imbalances. It's a paradox I see often in my clients, and in this episode, we discuss why individuals with seemingly robust drive and stamina could be more prone to adrenal PCOS. We examine the telltale signs of adrenal imbalance, the surprising connection between past traumas and PCOS, and why even the strongest among us need to heed the call to manage stress.

In the closing chapter of our conversation, we embrace the delicate dance of fertility and menstrual health, confronting the irony that conception might just occur when we ease up on our strict health regimens. I'll also introduce you to my secret allies—rhodiola and ashwagandha—and share how these natural wonders can be instrumental in supporting adrenal function. By the end of this episode, you'll have a trove of lifestyle adjustments and holistic strategies to help you navigate your adrenal PCOS

Breaking Barriers in Self-Care for a Balanced Life with PCOS

Text with your questions & comments for future episodes!

Struggling with self-care isn't just a personal challenge; it's a universal conundrum that can leave us feeling like we're neglecting our own needs. As I peel back the layers of mental barriers that keep us from indulging in self-care, you'll find new perspectives that may just be the breakthrough you've been looking for.

Nutrition isn't just about what we eat; it's about the entire ecosystem of our well-being, especially in turbulent economic times.

Routine might sound mundane, but it's the cornerstone of a sustainable, healthy lifestyle, and I'm here to show how it doesn't have to be a chore. From my morning matcha ritual to gym time vigor post-work, I map out the balance we all seek amidst daily chaos and how caring for ourselves can actually CREATE time and energy for us.
