Ep. 219 How I Reversed Adrenal Fatigue: The 4 Key Changes I Made

At one point I cried to my doctor because I was just so frustrated…. I thought I needed to eat less, be stricter, exercise harder but none of it was working. In fact, I found myself gaining weight, looking puffier, and feeling more exhausted the harder I tried. Does this sound familiar? "You're just being lazy. It's all in your head" is what I kept telling myself and that only made things worse mentally. It wasn't until I dug deeper into my hormone health and found the root cause I was able to start truly healing and getting back to myself. In this episode, I'm going to explain the four key changes that I implemented that made all the difference for me. We will cover why I backed off of my training, learned to nourish my adrenals with proper nutrition, cut back on caffeine which was incredibly hard at the time, and learned to rebalance my circadian rhythm.  Time Stamps: (0:25) Team Coming Into Town (1:32) The Adrenals (3:05) My Hormone Healing Journey (5:15) What To Look For With Adrenal Fatigue (9:15) Pulling Back Intensity (11:25) Nourishing Your Adrenals (14:28) Magnesium Rich Foods (16:18) Hydration and Electrolytes (19:12) Proper Supplementation (19:54) Cutting Back on Caffeine (21:15) Prioritizing Sleep (25:05) We Can’t Work With Everyone---------------------Follow @vanessagfitness on Instagram for daily fitness tips & motivation. ---------------------Download Our FREE Metabolism-Boosting Workout Program---------------------Join the Women’s Metabolism Secrets Facebook Community for 25+ videos teaching you how to start losing fat without hating your life!---------------------Click here to send me a message on Facebook and we’ll see how I can help or what best free resources I can share!---------------------Interested in 1-on-1 Coaching with my team of Metabolism & Hormone Experts?
