Angela presents a biohack episode alongside previous guest, Christa Biegler, delving into the intricate relationship between thyroid health and overall hormonal balance, particularly focusing on the ovarian-adrenal-thyroid axis (OAT axis). They focus on the critical role of adrenal function in hormone production and stress response, highlighting the impact of cortisol on various bodily functions. KEY TAKEAWAYS Understanding the ovarian adrenal thyroid axis (OAT axis) is crucial as it involves the production of sex hormones, aldosterone, DHEA, and cortisol, which play vital roles in blood pressure, blood sugar, and stress response. The adrenal glands are essential for hormone production, especially cortisol, the "darling stress hormone," which affects energy levels, blood flow, and overall organ function. The thyroid is closely linked to metabolism, with symptoms such as fatigue, hair loss, feeling cold, and mental health issues like depression and anxiety indicating potential thyroid dysfunction. Pregnancy and postpartum periods can increase the demand for thyroid nutrients, leading to more thyroid-related symptoms like sluggish motility, fungal overgrowth, and dry skin. Recognising and addressing thyroid symptoms is crucial, as they can impact various bodily systems and functions, highlighting the interconnected nature of hormonal health. BEST MOMENTS "If you don't have cortisol, you die. It's the most essential. And so that one is almost at the top of the triangle to me." "I always think your symptoms matter more than your lab results because there's nothing more frustrating to a woman." "The top thyroid symptoms, which I did not resonate with, I resonated with different ones." "When you're pregnant and postpartum, your thyroid needs, the nutrients for the thyroid go up dramatically, of course, right?"

Angela talks to Christa Biegler, an expert in helping women with burnout and adrenal function. They discuss the importance of thyroid health and its connection to adrenal and sex hormone function, with Christa sharing her own journey of experiencing skin outbreaks and gut issues, which led her to discover the impact of stress on her thyroid and adrenal function. The show also delves into the symptoms of thyroid dysfunction, such as fatigue, hair loss, and cold intolerance, focussing on the significance of mineral balance, particularly potassium and sodium, in supporting optimal thyroid function KEY TAKEAWAYS Thyroid health is crucial for overall well-being and metabolism. Symptoms of thyroid issues include fatigue, hair loss, feeling cold, and sluggish motility. Adrenal function plays a significant role in thyroid health. When cortisol levels are elevated due to stress, it can lead to potassium depletion, which affects digestion, thyroid function, and energy levels. Fasting and under-nourishing the body can worsen adrenal and thyroid function. It is important to prioritise nourishing foods and avoid extreme fasting practices, especially if already depleted. Adding mineral-rich foods to the diet, such as potatoes with skin, avocados, and bananas, can help replenish potassium levels and support overall mineral balance. Lifestyle behaviours that promote balance and support adrenal, sex hormone, and thyroid function include avoiding excessive stress, getting adequate sleep, managing inflammation, and incorporating holistic practices like mindfulness and self-care. BEST MOMENTS "So many of our issues are just hung up in control of wanting to control every outcome, everything” "If you're fluctuating more than five pounds or two, two and a half kilos of body weight over a couple of days, that's inflammatory water weight that can be related to a bigger picture of inflammation." "I think there's a mineral issue. And also from an energetic perspective, sometimes it's indicative that you're holding onto things that you need to let go of the most."

[04:07] Different Types of Eczema and How They Differ from Each Other -       Eczema or atopic dermatitis is just rashy skin and often has a component of overgrowth of staph aureus on the skin. -       There are three types of priorities of eczema and how they appear. -       Gut-mediated eczema is usually going to look bright red. If it's circular, it is probably always gut mediated. And it's going to look worse in the summer. -       Antihistamines and histamines aren't enemies but are almost always a problem in most eczema cases. -       Histamine should be broken down better when you have good gut bacteria. [10:06] Are You Digesting Properly? Things You Should Know About Digesting -       No one is digesting because we suppress all our digestive enzymes, stomach acid, and pancreatic enzyme functions under stress. -        Undigested stuff creates chaos in the immune system. And then it informs the immune system that there's a problem, which can lead you to have food sensitivities. -       If you do not have a banana bowel movement every morning, you're probably not digesting beautifully. [28:11] Improving Gut Microbiome: Tools That Can Help To Strengthen Your Gut -       Prebiotics are supposed to feed good bacteria. But most clinicians at practice would tell you they are good and bad, depending on the prebiotics. -       Saccharomyces boulardii can pass the stomach acid spores and typically can have some bacteria-shifting properties. Still, they're probably not enough when you have H. Pylori or other certain bacteria that need a certain potential treatment. -       Short-chain fatty acids are up-regulating ketosis. -       If you're trying to support your gut health, improve your digestion first. -       Doing diaphragmatic breathing pumps your lymphatics, which improves your digestion. -       When doing deep breathing, you increase ATP turnover by 15 times. So, you're healing your adrenals with breathwork. [39:24] Liver and Kidney: Detoxifying Tips to Help Your Organs Clean Your Body -       Try always to start externally. -       Be careful what you put on large areas of your skin, such as pure, high-quality oil. -       The sauna massively helps with cellular turnover and increases like passive exercise. -       Liver detoxification involves pooping, being hydrated, and sweating. -       Digesting your food is massively important to get those nutrients, and amino acids come from proteins.

At least one in ten children struggle with eczema and parents are often left wondering what the cause is and how to help.

Stress is a VERY hot topic right now, and I'm actually thankful it is because in the past, I think many brushed it off and just didn't talk it about it. However with new research, we know that it's not just a stressful "event" such as a divorce or a family member's terminal diagnosis that can have negative effects on mind and body. It can be chronic things such as consistent fasting, reliving childhood trauma, or as my guest today acknowledges, fast talking! It truly is unique for each person. Today's guest, Christa Biegler, is an award-winning dietitian nutritionist, host of the Less Stressed Life podcast, and author of The Eczema Relief Diet & Cookbook. She helps health-savvy women overcome food sensitivities and fatigue without restrictive dieting to beat bloat, burnout & eczema breakouts. She lives with her unicycling husband & kids in the Midwest. What are some things you've seen stress affect in or on your body? Let me know in the comments below!

Christa Biegler and I first crossed paths just about a year ago. I was least interested in her work as a dietician, though she's quite incredible in that regard, and most interested in the fact that her life appeared to be somewhat of an inverse of mine: She'd had her first child at 18, got married in her early 20s (shortly following college), across her 20s had two more children, and now in her mid 30s found herself looking at colleges with her first daughter and, in many ways, on the other side of her motherhood journey. Or at the very least, not nearing the beginning, which is where I found myself. I wanted to bring Christa on to discuss her experience entering motherhood and marriage at an earlier age and learn more about what that experience was like for her. Enneagram TestEnneagram InstituteWork with ChristaListen to Christa's Podcast, The Less Stressed LifeCurious to work with me one on one?

Episode Summary  Today, I am joined by Christa Biegler, functional medicine nutritionist and podcast host of The Less Stressed Life, to talk about bloating! Bloating can be very frustrating for Hashi ladies because we think it starts with eating habits when it actually starts in the brain. Tune in to hear all the factors involved in what could be your belly bloat. Key Takeaways  Bloating is different for everyone. For some, it can take place within the two hours after eating, for others it may feel like a rock in the gut. Depending on the symptoms of the bloating, practitioners can narrow down where the problem sits in the gut, whether in the small intestine or the large intestine. The answer isn't always a food sensitivity but rather a bacterial infection, stress levels, or parasitic infection. About Christa Biegler  Christa Biegler is a functional medicine nutritionist and podcast host of The Less Stressed Life. She helps health-conscious women reduce inflammation and symptoms to live a less stressed life. The Prevalence of H. Pylori and its Connection in Digestion A common Hashimoto's infection is called H. Pylori, found as a bacterial growth in the small intestine. It is very prevalent as it is easily exchanged in saliva, sharing cups and spoons, etc. With the bacterial infection, the digestive system is unable to properly digest proteins leading to other deficiencies in the gut needing to function as normal. Christa discusses how to treat H. Pylori during infection and after a relapse. Bloating and its Root Causes Bloating can look different for everyone, and your symptoms can tell practitioners more about the potential root causes of the bloating. Usually, our first plan of attack is to start on a restrictive diet, but Christa recommends treating the adrenal glands first. Targeting stress and becoming aware of unrealized stress, then go to the gut to discover where in the gut to target next. In This Episode  What does bloating look like? [2:03] H. Pylori in relation to Hashimoto's thyroiditis [6:39] The prevalence of H. Pylori [9:07] The connection between H. Pylori and protein [9:57] What to do after you relapse with H.

Did you know that your circadian rhythm affects your skin? Are you ready to find out what it means by your skin having its OWN circadian rhythm? If you've wondered why your skin feels different at different times of the day (super itchy at night, but fine during the day), today's guest will explain why! My guest today is Michelle Jeffries, D.O., FAAD, FAOCD. Dr. Michelle Jeffries is a board-certified Integrative Dermatologist in private practice in Phoenix, AZ and is the CEO and Founder of The SkinClock Method. She is a triple board-certified osteopathic physician in Dermatology, Pediatric Dermatology and Integrative Medicine. Dr. Jeffries also has a Masters degree in Psychology and is an Institute for Functional Medicine Certified Practitioner. Her unique training and background has led her to a comprehensive "inside AND out" approach to skin health that blends the principles of holistic beauty with the natural health cycles of your body, universal laws of nature, ancient teachings, modern dermatology, functional nutrition, and spiritual consciousness for truly holistic skincare. Join us as we discuss how clock genes work in alignment with your circadian rhythm and how that can affect skin health. Have you dealt with poor sleep patterns and aligned your body's circadian rhythm to the betterment of your skin? Share with me in the comments! In this episode: What exactly is your circadian rhythm? What are clock genes? Why your skin may be actually drier at night along with more itchiness Why is it important to align your clock genes within your body with the rhythm of the world? What ancient civilizations knew that modern tech and research are discovering Thoughts on blue light blockers and red light therapry Quotes “Shift workers who actually are awake at night and asleep during the day, they actually have different rhythms that they do throughout the day. And unfortunately they're more at risk for diabetes, heart disease and cancer, psoriasis, other things. So the research has shown when you're not aligning with those rhythms, a lot of the other systems in the body get out of sync.” [7:52] “If we don't eat during active periods of the day and we're eating at night and we're eating when we're supposed to be resting, then that can just throw that whole gut clock out of lap, too. And then that will send mis-signals to the body because then the body has all these nutrients (to process).” [15:37] Links Connect with Dr. Jeffries online Follow Dr. Jeffries on Instagram | Facebook Healthy Skin Show #128: Eczema Sleep Problems w/ Christa Biegler, RD Healthy Skin Show #234: How Sleep Impacts Your Skin (Tips + Strategies) PT 1 w/ Michelle Nilan, MS, CNS Healthy Skin Show #235: How Sleep Impacts Your Skin (Tips + Strategies) PT 2 w/ Michelle Nilan, MS, CNS Healthy Skin Show #236: How Sleep Impacts Your Skin (Tips + Strategies) PT 3 w/ Michelle Nilan, MS, CNS Healthy Skin Show #180: How Hormones Impact Your Immune System + Skin Health w/ Heather Zwickey, PhD

In this continuation of episode 245 "I split tested my urine mycotoxin test" I go through dead ringer mold symptoms, a huge checklist of severe, moderate and mild symptoms and how I've changed my approach in practice. You can also apply to become a client now and get your case reviewed right now in August to get started in September.  https://www.christabiegler.com/fssHere are some dead ringer mold symptoms if you have 2-3 of them: Nasal soresUnproductive sore throat Joint pain, especially in hands/feet Lichen Schlerosus or sharp vaginal pain Lymph node swelling Increased allergies Itching on the base of scalp, especially at night Significant negative "detox reactions" fMouth sores from citric acid Chronic sinus congestion or throat clearing If going through the symptoms is a little fast, here is a version of Dr. Jill Christa's mold questionairre. I find people that score at least a 7 are positive for mycotoxins. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/59a037d34c0dbf261600c0ec/t/60959aea82fcec1e35b1ad77/1620417258387/Crista+Mold+Questionnaire+Form.pdf But I also think people don't check all the potential boxes (histamine issues, etc).

You can connect with Christa on IG @anti.inflammatory.nutritionist, listen to the Less Stressed Life Podcast or visit her website at https://www.christabiegler.com/ ! TLDL takeaways & action steps: 1. Eczema is a result of topical staphylococcus infection/overgrowth on the skin- which also points to overgrowth in the gut as well. 2. Mold exposure is a common reason for food sensitivities and eczema 3. Christa has her own eczema typing system. If your eczema looks more dry and flaky you likely need liver support. If it's bright red you may be having a reaction to histamines in the diet. If eczema is primarily on your hands you're likely dealing with eczema from stress. 4. Eczema is a SYMPTOM or RESULT of something else (like mold exposure, sluggish detox, stress, gut issues, etc) 5. General healing time frame for eczema is 2-4 months Action steps: [A] Follow a high quality diet- in Christa's eyes, this means based on whole foods, 5+ cups of veggies daily & a ton of colors in your meals. [B] If you want to experiment with food restriction (i.e. cutting out the Top 8 Allergens, which are milk, eggs, fish, shellfish, soybeans, wheat, tree nuts and peanuts) - Christa doesn't recommend restricting for longer than 3 weeks. [C] Follow Christa's process for eczema healing (aka "AWE"): 1. AWARENESS: write out a timeline of when you started to notice eczema, what else was happening in your life at that point, etc. You can also fill out this questionnaire to see if you can make connections to what else is going on internally. Sometimes this step also includes getting specialized testing done. 2. WORK: these are what you're going to DO with the information you discovered in step 1. If you're exploring this on your own that might look like implementing a detox or stress management regimen 3. EMPOWERMENT: this means taking what worked well for you in step 2 and continuing to use those tools to support your body. [D] Christa's favorite detox strategies: infrared sauna therapy, regular BMs, sweating, good hydration --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/curious-women/support

Do you suffer from eczema?    Eczema is something that many people struggle with every day and it can be frustrating to try and figure out what is causing it or what can help. Eczema can present differently for different people which only adds to the confusion.    There are so many puzzle pieces involved in addressing eczema, so where do you start? In today's episode of The Dr. Kinney Show, I sat down with Christa Biegler to talk about eczema, how it relates to our gut health, stress levels, and so much more.    Christa Biegler is an award-winning dietitian nutritionist, host of the Less Stressed Life podcast, and author of The Eczema Relief Diet & Cookbook. She helps health-savvy women beat bloat, burnout & eczema breakouts with her podcast, programs, and private practice.    She lives with her unicycling husband & kids in the Midwest.

If eczema is the only thing that is wrong, it can heal pretty quickly. But if you have something else going on, it could be the last thing to heal.    Tune in to learn more about the different types of eczema, how they heal, and what your body could be trying to tell you.    Show notes available at www.drerinkinney.com/75   Resources Mentioned:  Check out Christa's website: https://www.christabiegler.com/   Listen to The Less Stressed Life Podcast: https://www.christabiegler.com/podcast   Follow Christa on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/christabieglerrd    Follow Christa on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/anti.inflammatory.nutritionist/    Check out the Eczema Nutritionist website: https://www.eczemanutritionist.com/ I would love to connect on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DrKinneyND   I would love to connect on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drkinney

Hair loss, cold hands and feel and feeling tired are the big three for a sluggish thyroid. But relapsing gut issues, slow motility, sleep disruption, brain fog, slow metabolism, inflammation, low mood or anxiety, and dry skin can all be symptoms of a sluggish thyroid.  In this episode, we talk about how we've had to change how we're approaching thyroid health in practice to ensure clients feel their best and maintain their results.  We talk about “dead ringers” of thyroid symptoms, blood versus tissue labs, thyroid nutrient cofactors and steps to take if you're checking the boxes but not getting answers yet.  If you're experiencing the issues mentioned in this episode (tired, gut symptoms, etc) and want testing + support, you can get it from our program Food Sensitivity Solutions & The Fatigue Fix. In it, we correct imbalances in the gut with testing and fill in the nutrient gaps (based on testing) depriving the thyroid of working properly.  ****Learn more & apply here: https://www.christabiegler.com/fss  This episode is sponsored by RUPA Health, my favorite lab concierge service that brings over 25 different functional medicine labs to one dashboard and saves me loads of time with it's amazing interface and saves my clients money by being a low cost blood lab facilitating option.  If you're a health practitioner, get a free account at https://www.rupahealth.com and let them know I sent you! Books mentioned: Why Do I Still Have Thyroid Symptoms by Datis Kharrazian   Overcoming Thyroid Disorders by David Brownstein, MD Stop the Thyroid Maddness II, compiled and edited by Janie Bowthorpe

She explains that there are good and bad types of stress. Like so many things in life, the first step is acknowledging it and how it shows up. Changes in appetite and my (not normal) craving for sugar is not my fault. Seriously, Christa said so. Listen in for tips to reduce stress, feel better and boost your immune system.
