[Ep. 322] Biochemist Explains How Chronic Stress Fuels 99% Of All Our Diseases

PRE-ORDER the upcoming book now: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/the-bookOur favorite biochemist, Karen Hurd, joins us again to discuss how stress fuels disease. Chronic levels of stress, be it from food, relationships, physical exertion, thought patterns, or the environment, all tax the adrenal glands. Karen tells us how and why this happens. With taxed adrenals we are left feeling burnt out and reach for coffee and stimulants, forcing us to push past our bodies need to rest. Luis and Karen talk about cultural conditioning around resting in the age of a DO MORE culture. They also address cancer, viruses, and chronic fatigue. We always love exploring the science with Karen behind why our bodies do what they do! You can read more about Karen's work, and register for her courses, here: https://karen-r.mylearnworlds.com/pages/homeYou can listen to previous episodes with Karen Hurd here:[Ep. 256] How Stress Affects Your Hormones, Digestion, & What To Eat About It w/ Karen Hurd[Ep. 218] The Biology Of Your Emotions & How Food Helps w/ Karen Hurd[Ep. 8] Healing Your Body With Beans | Karen Hurd[Bonus Episode] The Sugar-To-Adrenaline PipelineYou can read more about, and register for, the upcoming 6 month "Embodied Nutrition" program here: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/slow-practice-nutrition-group You can read more about, and register for, the retreat at Broughton in the UK here: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/broughton-2026----You can learn more on the website: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/You can follow Luis on Instagram @holistic.life.navigationQuestions?
