And no, it's not just about feeling stressed—this goes deeper.We're talking blood sugar chaos, muscle breakdown, hormone hijacking, and metabolic mayhem.In this episode, I'm breaking down:

How do you feel about your hormones? Do you feel like they create havoc and, when you're in midlife, you need to put up with hell because of all the changes that are happening? For most women, when it comes to this big, broad window of midlife, we have no idea what's going on until we're in the middle of all the changes and frantically trying to catch up with WTF is going on. In this conversation, my guest, Nancy Demuynck, a clinical nutritionist and naturopath, will help you get crystal clear on which hormones require your attention, support and focus and how you can harmonise them to reclaim our spark, feel energised and live the life you desire.

A Continuous glucose monitor or a finger prick What is type 1.5 LADA diabetes? What is the connection between diabetes and Dementia and Alzheimer's What SHOULD you be doing to reverse this? Is Metformin helpful or harmful for people? Is OZEMPIC helpful or dangerous Why is skipping a meal not a good idea as a diabetic? How CORTISOL affects Blood Sugar Dr. Beverly Yates ND is an internationally acclaimed diabetes expert who uses the Yates Protocol to help people get control over their blood sugar, reclaim their energy, and enjoy life again. Many people feel hopeless in their struggles to control their blood sugar. In fact, when people who have type 2 diabetes do seek help, all too often they are shamed and blamed by the doctors and health professionals they consult, who make assumptions about them without first seeking to understand what's behind the chronically high blood sugar levels that affect many other areas of health. There is no “shaming and blaming” here. It's been my experience that for most people, there are 2 key lifestyle aspects (other than nutrition and exercise) they don't know about that make a profound difference in blood sugar control. The Yates Protocol was developed over the course of her 20-plus-year clinical career, using the Systems Approach from her prior career as an MIT-trained Electrical Engineer. Dr. Yates wanted to help the growing number of new patients who wanted to get control of their blood sugar, naturally. The Yates Protocol has helped thousands of people around the world to get control of their blood sugar, and I'd like to help you, too. I invite you to take action right now. You can schedule the free, no-obligation consultation call and download the free Blueprint to take your next step to get control of your blood sugar numbers.

You know when your body is out of control and you can't stop the symptoms from happening? That's what it feels like with hormones. The symptoms of out-of-control hormones can be exhausting. The effects may not always show up right away but rather develop over time which makes them even more difficult to cope with when they do finally come into view.   All sorts of hormones are controlling your life. These chemicals send instructions to every part on how you should be acting and feeling, but sometimes they don't get the message across correctly or at all! You may feel out of control with these powerful messengers sending mixed signals about what's expected from us as humans.Listen in as we talk about:[0:03] Difference between Symptoms and Indictors[4:48] What are Estrogen and Testosterone?[6:40] Hormones and Cortisol[7:40] How Cortisol works for the Body[10:00] Symptoms of High-Level Cortisol [11:48] My Experience with out-of-control Hormones   [16:02] Everything About Testosterone[26:51] Thyroid as a ThermostatResources mentioned in this episode:Hormone Reboot ProgramConnect with AndrewFacebook GroupTikTokBlogWebsiteSupport the Show.get support with coach andrew here: https://ovou.me/fit4allfitnessincDont forget to listen to coach andrew on instagram and facebook FB: https://www.facebook.com/andrew.costa.56INST: https://www.instagram.com/andrew_hormonehelper/

Willpower is often deemed as necessary for weight loss but that's all wrong. In today's episode of The Slim & Satisfied Podcast I'm going to bust this long-standing myth and give you a more effective method for staying motivated and making meaningful changes that last. I start by outlining a study that will demonstrate that willpower is a finite resource – it's a very interesting experiment about food choices and self-discipline. Because willpower is a finite resource, it's difficult to measure just how much is left in the tank, often resulting in a hamster wheel effect, offering no real, long-term solutions. To illustrate this, I discuss the “Triple-F Cycle”—fear, failure, and fatigue that so many women go through when trying to lose weight. The “Triple-F Cycle” is broken down into phases: The weight gain phase. This could be a life-long struggle with weight, a rough patch, or even a health condition. The frustration phase. Frustration often builds up and mounts into an anger towards one's self. This can lead to impulse decision making. The quick-action phase. Here, we're exposed emotionally. We're more likely to follow down a path that we've tried before—a crash diet, skipping meals, etc.—anything to lose weight. The blood, sweat, and tears phase. This is where our willpower is depleted. The time, effort, and money invested in these diets forces a burn-out. The physical and mental fatigue phase. We're tired. We're stressed. These can cause cortisol levels in our body to rise, leading to further weight gain. And before you know it, you're back to square one. Finally, I answer the question “What can we do instead of relying on willpower?” and offers my proven 5-step process: The Slim & Satisfied Brain Blueprint. With this plan, you can train the brain with something called “brain neuroplasticity,” allowing us to create healthier habits—and stick to them. My 5-step plan is simple: Extraction. Here, we find one specific behavior that we can tie back to an unhealthy lifestyle. This should be something deeper than simply losing weight. Formation. Now, we decide on a behavior we'd like to replace the one we're extracting. This can be something entirely new or an activity you've done in the past. Attachment. Next, we “attach” this new behavior to something we do everyday anyways. Find something that you know you're already committed to and try linking it with your new, healthy behavior. Repetition. Stick with it! This isn't an over-night process. Stay true to what your goal is even when the going gets tough. Validation. Once you've done your new behavior enough, it'll become second nature. You'll find yourself performing these healthy habits without much thought. Dafna reminds us to look for those “non-scale victories” or results that aren't defined by numbers on a scale. Are you more energized? Has your mood improved? The impacts are all around us. What you'll learn in this Podcast Willpower is not necessary for weight loss The “Triple-F Cycle” and how we fall into it.
