85 | Why Most Health Advice Was Written for Someone Else's Body

from Decode Your Body | Bloating, Fatigue, Gut Health, Weight, Body Type, Symptoms · host Tasha Miller | Body Literacy for Women

There's a drawer, or a shelf. You know exactly where it is. The supplements you take every day. The ones you rotate. The ones you bought a while back and kept, just in case they're actually doing something for your symptoms. You've tried real things from credible sources. Something shifts for a while. Then it stops. So you adjust. But the pattern comes back. In this episode, we talk about why that loop keeps happening, and why it has nothing to do with discipline, willpower, or trying harder. Almost every piece of health advice that exists was written for a general body. Not yours. And when you follow advice built for a different body than yours, you get exactly that experience. Something almost works. Something works for a while and then stops. That’s not a you problem. That’s a mismatch.
