The Thyroid Fixer

In my latest podcast episode, I'm taking a deep dive into the significant impact stress can have on our health. This episode is a revealing journey through the recent lab results of one of my patients, showcasing just how powerful and often underestimated stress can be in affecting our well-being.The patient in focus is a 51-year-old woman facing the immense stress of caring for her aging parents. This scenario is something many of us can relate to, as it highlights the challenges we face as both we and our loved ones grow older. Through her story, we see a vivid example of how even previously optimized health can be shaken by the relentless force of stress.I walk through her lab results in detail, ensuring privacy while providing a clear picture of the changes in her health. This analysis is an eye-opener for anyone who may not fully recognize the extent to which stress can alter our body's functioning.I also share practical advice on managing and reducing stress. This includes tips like using blue light blocking glasses, prioritizing deep, restorative sleep, and understanding the critical rest and repair period from 10 pm to 2 am. The episode doesn't shy away from suggesting significant lifestyle changes that can aid in reducing stress, whether it involves a job change, relationship decisions, or other major life alterations.Wrapping up, the episode serves as a stark reminder of the dangers of letting stress deplete our health reserves and potentially lead to chronic diseases. It's a call to action for everyone to take proactive steps in managing stress and safeguarding our health.Shop ALL of Dr. Amie's Fixxr® Supplements:betterlifedoctor.comSubscribe to my Text Club: Text DRAMIE to 8332631365LET'S GET YOUR LIFE BACK...Connect with Dr. Amie HornamanBook a free application call: https://dramiehornaman.com/pages/book-a-callFREE DOWNLOADS…Are My Labs Optimal?
