Make sure that you are not only GETTING enough protein - you are actually able to digest and absorb it. ⤵️

Food first to help protein digestion:

1️⃣ Pineapple:
👉 Enzyme: Bromelain
☑️ Benefits: Bromelain is a mixture of enzymes found in pineapple, particularly in the stem. It aids in the digestion of proteins and can help reduce inflammation. Consuming fresh pineapple or drinking pineapple juice can contribute to improved protein digestion.

2️⃣ Papaya:
👉 Enzyme: Papain
☑️ Benefits: Papain is an enzyme present in papaya that assists in breaking down proteins. It is particularly effective in digesting tough meat fibers. Eating ripe papaya or incorporating it into smoothies can provide digestive benefits.

3️⃣ Kiwi:
👉 Enzyme: Actinidin
☑️ Benefits: Kiwi contains the enzyme actinidin, which aids in the digestion of proteins. It can be particularly helpful for individuals who may experience discomfort after consuming protein-rich meals. Adding kiwi to your diet can be a tasty way to support digestion!

ACV in 4oz of water first thing in the morning can help too 💕

🛑Stop fixating on things you CAN’T control and focus on things you CAN instead.🛑

The truth is that distinguishing between what you can control and what you can’t is crucial for developing realistic and achievable health goals, as well as keeping your mindset in the right place.

If we focus solely on the things that are out of our control the whole time, we live in a constant state of worry and self-pity.

Here are some examples of things you can’t vs can control when it comes to your health:

❌️ I Can't Control:
➡ My Genetics: Your genetics do play a role in your overall health, and they cannot be changed BUT they can be influenced to turn off and on certain genotypes
➡ Age: Aging is a natural process, but you don't have to accept any condition as part of aging
➡ Environmental Factors: Factors like air and water quality and exposure to pollutants.
➡ Unforeseen Medical Conditions: Some health conditions may arise unexpectedly

✅️ I Can Control
➡ Diet: Nutrition choices, including the types and amounts of food consumed.
➡ Physical Activity: Committing to regular exercise is a choice.
➡ Sleep Habits: Establishing healthy sleep patterns is within your control.
➡ Stress Management: While stress is inevitable, how one copes with and manages stress is controllable. Techniques such as mindfulness, meditation, and relaxation exercises are be effective.

Understanding the balance between factors you can and cannot control is essential for cultivating a realistic and sustainable approach to a healthy lifestyle.

👉️Focus on the controllable aspects of your health. It will only empower you to make positive choices that contribute to overall well-being, even in the face of factors beyond your control.👈️

For most people - moderation is bu****it.

I know, you’ve seen me say “moderation is key” and “little bits of lots of things” and that *can* be true 👉 AFTER your primary healing ❤️‍🩹 journey.

So once you are symptom free and metabolically flexible THEN you can test the limits with moderation.

Until then — moderation is bu****it and will only extend your healing time. 🫶

Let’s talk about and sleep! Because it’s a 2 way street.

Poor gut health and reduced sleep are interconnected in a complex relationship that impacts our overall well-being. This two-way street involves a bidirectional interaction between the gut and the sleep-wake cycle, with each influencing the other in both physiological and molecular ways.

Let’s take a look into a few ways poor gut health and reduced sleep impact each other: ⤵

1️⃣Gut Microbiota and Sleep Regulation:
The gut is home to trillions of microorganisms known as the gut microbiota. These microbes play a crucial role in various physiological processes, including:

👉 Digestion
👉 Immunity
👉 And, you guessed it, sleep regulation.

The composition and diversity of the gut microbiota can influence sleep patterns. Imbalances in the gut microbiota, known as dysbiosis, can lead to disruptions in sleep-wake cycles.

2️⃣The Gut-Brain Axis:
The gut and the brain communicate bidirectionally through the gut-brain axis, which includes neural, endocrine, and immune pathways. This axis enables information exchange between the gut and the central nervous system.

Disruptions in gut health can lead to increased permeability of the gut lining (leaky gut). This can trigger an immune response and neuroinflammation, potentially affecting sleep quality.

On the flip side, stress and poor sleep can also influence gut health. Chronic stress and sleep deprivation can disrupt the gut microbiota composition and function, leading to gastrointestinal symptoms. 👎

3️⃣Hormonal and Neurotransmitter Influence:
Sleep and gut health are regulated by common factors, including hormones and neurotransmitters. For example, serotonin, a neurotransmitter involved in mood regulation, is produced in the gut and plays a role in both gastrointestinal function AND sleep regulation!

The 🗝️ takeaway: By improving sleep hygiene and addressing sleep disorders, we can contribute to a healthier gut microbiota composition, and on the flip side, improving gut health may also improve sleep quality!

👇Sound off: do you struggle with sleep? 👇

“When diet is wrong, medicine is of no use. When diet is correct, medicine is of no need.”

Let these wise words remind us of the incredible impact our food choices have on our well-being. Your journey to a healthier, happier you begins with what's on your plate! 💪🏼✨

Think of it this way…⤵

Every bite you take is either an opportunity to fuel your body with the nutrients it needs to thrive, or the opposite - make any inflammation in the body worse and prolong healing.

✅ Embrace a diet rich in grass fed meats, colorful fruits, vibrant veggies, and healthy fats. Without these nutrients, your body's ability to absorb and utilize natural supplements or conventional medications can actually become compromised.

✅ A healthy diet can help prevent many health issues in the first place. By focusing on prevention through proper nutrition, you eliminate or reduce the need for medications in the long run.

✅ It’s not just about what you eat—it's also about when you eat. Avoid heavy meals close to bedtime, and give your body the restful sleep it craves. Adequate sleep enhances your body's healing process, making your diet even more effective.

The truth is that a well-balanced diet isn't just a short-term fix—it's a lifelong investment in your health!

Let's shift our focus from quick fixes to sustainable habits. Embrace the power of a wholesome diet, and witness the transformation from within. Remember, you have the ability to take charge of your health—no prescription needed!

👉Naturopathic VS Conventional👈
🌿Hormone Imbalance Edition👩‍⚕️

Naturopathic VS conventional medicine: what does addressing hormone imbalances look like? 🩺

Naturopathic medicine and conventional medicine are two distinct approaches to healthcare that diverge in their treatment strategies. 🔀

Conventional medicine is often symptom-focused, whereas holistic/naturopathic medicine takes a comprehensive view of health addressing root causes instead of masking symptoms.

➡️➡️scroll thru the slides for details

The key 🔑 difference here is that naturopathic medicine emphasizes treating the root causes of health issues rather than merely alleviating symptoms.

If you suspect hormone imbalances and want to try the holistic route, send me a DM to learn more about my approach to finding and treating your root cause for good. 📩

Harvest Season is around the corner.

👉What are you harvesting?👈

If you are looking at your wellness, level of health and vitality right now and you don’t like what is there, ask yourself:

🌱Why? What did I plant in the last season which is now growing?

👉Sometimes the answer is simple, and sometimes it is more complex, sometimes we don’t want to hear it (because often it is our own making), but almost every time the answer is there.

🫶The positive side of this is that you CAN change your future by sowing new habits, lifestyle choices, disciplines right now so that future seasons bring health and wellness.

The key 🔑 is to begin now and to choose 1 habit to stack each interval. (And that should be about every 3 weeks).

I said this on an episode of my podcast. Out of context it may make you puff up with irritation, but that’s okay. Of course you’re allowed to have off days.

Here’s what it means 👉 you don’t have to accept feeling “not okay,” “bad,” “tired,” whatever your adjective is for not feeling fully of life, energy, vibrancy all the time or even MOST days.

You may have even been to see your doctor or several doctors that have told you
👉it’s just a part of aging
👉it’s normal
👉your labs look good
👉this is what happens

❌It’s NOT.

You have the ability, your body has the ability to heal. And don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.

I said this on a podcast, I believe it whole heartedly and I’ve seen it come to fruition for many many people.

Recently a client told me she had listened to the entire roster of podcasts on a trip from GA to TX. This one line flipped the switch for her. Helped her to reclaim her power.

And wow, the progress she has made. Her journey is just beginning at 60 years old. 🫶

🍒cherry season🍒

People either love ‘em or hate ‘em!

How about you?

Energetically, cherries are delish little reminders to be present + mindful to avoid mistakes (and pain 😉). Challenging sometimes, I know.

Physically, they are super detoxifying and cleansing. They are good medicine when you have just a handful a day during cherry 🍒 season! 💕

I love it when my clients have docs that tell them it can't be healed...and then we do it any damn way! 😆⁣

This happens all the time, with all sorts of diagnoses - but one of my fav's to do this with is IBS. Because it is just so stinkin' simple to fix. ⁣

Trying to kick your creamer habit?

And if you weren’t you may be wondering if you should…the answer like with everything is…it depends. 👇

Are you using a sugary flavored creamer?
❌ time to gooooooo

Are you using a conventional dairy creamer?
❌ byyyyeeeee

Are you using a plant based milk full of sugars, gums, inflammatory oils?
❌ nah get rid of it

Here’s some tips (choose 1) to make your coffee still taste delish:
✅ add a little bit of cacao
✅ add cinnamon
✅ add a tablespoon of coconut cream (from a can) without gums/fillers
✅ choose a high quality plant milk with no sugars, gums, or oils
✅ choose raw A2/A2 dairy
✅ drink a Reishi mushroom organic coffee blend (peep stories for the benes)

And if you are thinking - 🙋‍♀️Audrey - I don’t like coffee without my Carmel creamer —then I have some news for you…👇👇👇

you don’t really like coffee.

And that’s okay - but why continue to stunt your healing with it?
