The Book That Restored Her Health with Guest Sarah Shah

What happens when you stop accepting symptoms as something you simply have to live with and start taking a more active role in your health? In this episode, Dr. Hotze sits down with Sarah Shaw, who shares how reading Hormones, Health, and Happiness nearly 20 years ago changed the way she approached her health. At the time, Sarah was struggling with severe fatigue, brain fog, itching, recurring fungal infections, and intense sugar cravings. After recognizing her symptoms in Dr. Hotze’s book, she began following a yeast-free eating program focused on eliminating sugar and simple carbohydrates. She says her symptoms began improving within the first 30 days. Sarah explains how that experience encouraged her to become what Dr. Hotze calls her own “health contractor.” Over the years, she experimented with different approaches to determine what worked best for her body, including eliminating foods she felt were contributing to her symptoms and using tools such as a continuous glucose monitor to understand her response to certain foods better. She also shares how removing gluten and pasteurized dairy from her diet helped her address significant joint discomfort and regain the ability to stay active. Dr. Hotze and Sarah also discuss the importance of continually educating yourself about your health. Sarah’s message is simple: you do not have to change everything at once. Start somewhere, pay attention to how your body responds, and continue making choices that move you toward better health. Watch now and subscribe to our podcasts at www.HotzePodcast.com.
