Alcohol…we like it, we hate it! What does it do to us? Well, it helps us relax with friends. It tastes good. Is it okay to drink it? What about weight? Let’s take a look at how alcohol is used by our body and how it can affect weight loss.Also, as I promised…here is my blurb on wise alcohol choices. Even though there are wise alcohol choices, remember each person is different. How often and how much depends on the individual. AND if you are trying to lose weight, you may NOT want to drink alcohol until your fat burning process is in gear! Cheers!To get your Dry Farm Wines penny bottle: dryfarmwines.com/amiehornamanLET'S GET YOUR LIFE BACK...Connect with Dr. Amie HornamanBook a free discovery call: https://dramiehornaman.com/pages/book-a-callYou are worth the effort it will take and I will get you there.

53. Peptides, Growth Hormone, Weight Loss, and Other Benefits

As you know, I am always studying ways to stay optimally healthy and sharing these discoveries with my patients. Today I talk about peptides. Peptide usage has the potential aiding with anti-aging, anti-inflammatory, and muscle building properties. Today, I am just scratching the surface of this complex topic. I will look at peptides regarding IGF-1 (growth hormone) and how keeping optimal levels can help with weight loss. I especially wanted to share some information regarding how certain peptides can increase and maintain healthy growth hormone levels. A lot to cover, but a little dive into the up and coming peptide technologies. The takeaways for maintain IGF-1 for weight loss are eat enough calories, enough protein, get enough sleep, and lower your alcohol intake. Also, get into some weightlifting with heavy weights and lay off the cardio and practice some intermittent fasting with carb cycling. I know…I hear ya… you need to know more. That’s what I am here for, to help you find the best you. I work with practitioners that can help you if you need specific lab tests and prescribe peptides if they could be helpful for you. Then I can help you with developing a diet and exercise lifestyle specifically for you.

50. Why I Like and Don't Like Slow Release T3

There are things that I like about slow release T3 and things I don’t like about it. In this video, we will look at the good and the bad of slow release T3. First, they must be compounded with some fillers. That is what makes it slow release. The fillers can cause some problems with absorption for folks that have gut issues. It also cannot be used for folks with circadian rhythm issues and low cortisol in the morning. But for folks that cannot take T3 because it raises their blood pressure too high (I mean dangerously high), it might be a good solution. We look at these issues and how they help decide whether slow release T3 is for you. The true answer is to optimize the best thyroid hormone replacement solution for you personally.  I hope you enjoy this podcast and please share it with others. Remember I am here for you!
