Podcasts about nutrisense

Hi friends! I have a brand new podcast episode live, and today we are talking all about metabolism, hormones, and what it actually takes to feel good in your body after 40!! I'm sitting down with Dani Conway, board certified functional nutrition practitioner and founder of Nutrition the Natural Way. Dani lost 65 pounds herself after years of yo-yo dieting and gut and hormone struggles, and she has since spent her career helping thousands of women do the same. Her approach is rooted in testing, not guessing, and she has years of experience transforming thousands of women's lives. I think you're going to love her. If you've ever felt like you're doing all the "right" things but still feel stuck, exhausted, or like your metabolism just isn't cooperating the way it used to, then check out what we chat about: Why low calorie and low fat dieting can actually damage your metabolism long term and what to do instead The role of protein and healthy fats in hormone production and sustainable weight loss Why nutrition is the foundation everything else builds on, including gut health and hormone balance How Dani approaches macros with her clients, from lower carb all the way to carnivore, and why there is no one-size-fits-all Functional lab testing and why "testing not guessing" changes everything The connection between gut health, hormones, and stubborn weight that won't budge Her take on peptides, which ones she uses with clients, why she always starts with minimum effective dose, and what to watch out for on social media Her thoughts on GLP-1s and why they are never her first recommendation How to know when your body is actually ready for more advanced interventions And so much more!! It was so so great getting to talk with Dani and I hope you love this episode! If you've ever felt like you've tried everything and your body just isn't responding, this one is for you! ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Dani Conway is a sought-after functional medicine expert, as well as a Board Certified Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner, who also holds many other credentials within the alternative health space.

Dani is also the owner of her practice, Nutrition the Natural Way, and has worked with thousands of clients, combining cutting-edge strategies with personalized protocols to deliver transformational results for all of the women she works with. After overcoming her own 65-pound weight loss journey and healing severe hormone and gut dysfunction, Dani developed a comprehensive, innovative methodology that goes beyond the traditional diet mentality.

Hi friends! I have a brand new podcast episode live, and Betsy is back for round two!! If you haven't heard of Betsy, she is the creator behind Boujee Betsy, a community for women in their 40s who are finally choosing themselves, and she is as real as it gets. She's also one of my best friends in the whole world!! Today we are picking up right where we left off, diving into our personal experiences with peptides, the mental side of weight loss maintenance, body image, and so much more. Here's what we chat about: Betsy's background, how she lost 70 pounds with the help of a GLP-1, and what life looks like now in maintenance mode The mental and emotional journey of rebuilding your identity after significant weight loss Why maintaining your goal weight is honestly harder than losing it (and why nobody talks about that) Body image after weight loss and why some days you still feel like you're in your old body Why Betsy never counted calories or followed a strict food program and how she still maintains her results The "ingredient household" approach to feeding a family and keeping it realistic What is next for Betsy as she steps away from 20 years in education to focus on family and content creation And so much more!! Betsy's honesty about the parts of the wellness journey that nobody glamorizes is so refreshing, and I just know you are going to love her. Betsy is not your typical wellness guest. She's 45, unapologetically high-maintenance, and the creator behind @Boujee.Betsy — a community for women in their 40s who are finally choosing themselves. After losing 70 pounds with the help of a GLP-1, she'll be the first to tell you the medication wasn't the hard part. The hard part was everything it uncovered. Betsy speaks openly about maintaining weight loss when nobody's congratulating you for it anymore, the fear that never fully goes away, and the mental work of rebuilding your identity from the inside out. She's been in fight or flight mode for most of her adult life - and she's finally, deliberately, living differently. Her superpower? Saying out loud what everyone else is afraid to admit. Her mission? Showing women that pouring into yourself isn't selfish. It's survival. Follow her journey at @Boujee.Betsy on Instagram.

Hi friends! I have a brand new podcast episode live, and today we are talking all things skin!

Hi friends! I have a brand new episode live and today I'm joined by a neurosurgeon with some AMAZING insights on brain health, spine health, and really just whole-body healing. Dr. Amir Vokshoor is a board-certified MD and Chief of Surgery at Providence Saint John's Health Center in Santa Monica, and he specializes in minimally invasive spine surgery with a genuinely integrative, whole-body approach to brain and spine health. If you've ever dealt with back pain, are thinking about longevity, or just want to keep everything moving well as you get older, I think you're going to love this one. Here's what we chat about: Why Dr. Vokshoor's go-to tagline is "there's no health without brain health" — and what that actually means for your daily life The three key areas of spinal mobility he recommends everyone work on (cervical, thoracic, lumbar — plus hips and ankles!) His simple daily movement routine for spinal health that takes just minutes and doesn't require any equipment What minimally invasive spine surgery actually looks like How AI is changing his practice right now — including letting him actually touch his patients again during visits The promise and honest limitations of peptides Why chronic pain becomes a brain disease — and what that means for treatment And so much more!! This episode is a great reminder that your brain health isn't separate from the rest of your wellness. Whether you're postmenopausal and thinking about bone health, dealing with chronic pain, or just want to move well as you age, Dr. Vokshoor brings a refreshingly human and holistic perspective to neurosurgery.

Hi friends! I have a brand new podcast episode live, and today I'm talking about something that is so close to my heart: Where our food actually comes from.

Hi friends! I have a brand new podcast episode live, and today I'm diving into one of my all-time favorite topics — sleep!

This Week In Startups is made possible by:Caldera + Lab - https://CalderaLab.com/TWISTNorthwest Registered Agent - https://northwestregisteredagent.com/twistLemon - https://Lemon.io/twistToday's show:Computers that read your mind? Jets that are all wings? Continuously tracking your body's vital signs to live longer? We've got all that and more on the show today.First, we sat down with the CEO of Paradromics, Matt Angle, to dig into the progress that his brain-computer interface startup has made. Yes, there are more companies working on BCIs than just Neuralink. Paradromics, in particular, is looking for early clinical trial subjects as it works to bring its technology out of the lab and into the market.If you ever wanted to know more about how BCIs work and how long it will be until we can all benefit from the tech, this is the interview for you.Next, we got JetZero CEO Tom O'Leary on the phone to tell us all about his startup's jet. No, it's not competing with Boom, a startup that wants to build a supersonic passenger airliner. Instead, JetZero is building jets that are mostly wing, allowing them to fly with far greater fuel efficiency. Best of all? The future JetZero planes can fit right into normal airports.Finally, we chatted with Nutrisense CEO Dan Zavorotny. While keeping tabs on your glucose levels may not be the sexiest topic in the world, the data that continuous monitoring can bring is incredibly valuable health information. Mix that signal with coaching, and Nutrisense reckons its combination of software, data, and dieticians can really improve health outcomes for its customers.If you needed a break from pure-play AI news, TWiST has you covered!Timestamps:0:00 Introduction1:47 Paradromics3:26 How do BCIs read your mind?9:58 Lemon - Get 15% off your first 4 weeks of developer time at Lemon.io/twist19:54 Northwest Registered Agent - Get more when you start your business with Northwest.

Hi friends! I have a brand new podcast episode live, and today is a very special one — episode 200

Hi friends! I have a brand new podcast episode live, and today we're diving into a topic that so many women are confused about but deeply affected by: perimenopause. I'm joined by the amazing mother-daughter duo, Candace and Jess from Your Hormone Balance, and we're breaking down what perimenopause actually is, why it can start earlier than most women expect, and how chronic stress and nervous system dysregulation play a huge role in hormone imbalances, fatigue, mood swings, weight gain, and more. This episode is especially for you if you're in your 30s or 40s, feeling "off" in your body, struggling with sleep, energy, anxiety, or changes in your cycle - and being told everything is "normal." Here's what we chat about: What perimenopause really is (and why it's an 8–10 year transition, not a single moment) The early signs of perimenopause, including changes in your cycle, mood, sleep, and energy Why progesterone is often the first hormone to decline — and how that impacts anxiety, PMS, and stress tolerance How chronic stress, overworking, under-eating, and people-pleasing disrupt ovulation and hormone balance The connection between nervous system dysregulation and symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, bloating, and low libido Why so many women are estrogen dominant — and how stress drives that imbalance The importance of hormone testing (and why symptoms alone don't tell the full story) Simple, realistic nervous system practices to lower cortisol and support healing Breathwork techniques like the "physiological sigh" to calm anxiety in real time Everyday vagus nerve tools: humming, singing, grounding, and gentle movement How boundaries, asking for help, and reducing people-pleasing can literally improve your hormones Why heavy, painful, or irregular periods are not something you should ignore The role of protein, nourishment, and avoiding extremes with exercise and caffeine This episode is such a powerful reminder that your body isn't broken;  it's responding to the life you're living. And with the right tools, support, and awareness, you can move through perimenopause feeling calmer, stronger, more regulated, and more in tune with your body. I hope you enjoy this episode!

Blood sugar affects everything from your energy and sleep to your hormones and weight—yet most women are never taught how to manage it. In this episode, Kara Collier, RDN and co-founder of Nutrisense, shares what you need to know about CGMs, practical lifestyle hacks for glucose control, and the unique considerations women face after 35.Timestamps:[1:44] Intro[6:45] Interview with Kara[7:06] What did you see in your practice that made you realize blood sugar is a much bigger piece of the health puzzle?[10:51] Can you define what healthy blood sugar is, outside of markers on labs?[13:45] What does healthy blood sugar look like from a CGM perspective? [19:20] What's your opinion on why women are struggling more with blood sugar?[24:36] What do CGM's track and what data is most important? [36:10] Talk to me about the impact that stress has on our blood sugar and our ability to manage glucose.[41:06] What about exercise and sauna (the things that raise our heart rate)? What do we expect to see, what's normal, and what's not?[48:01] What are some of the most effective "hacks" in nutrition and exercise for blood sugar?[55:30] Do you think that carb timing influences blood sugar at all?[56:28] I got a CGM to see if there is anything obvious with my sleep.  Am I trying to avoid spikes all together? [1:03:04] How do we actually reverse insulin resistance? [1:09:56] Is fasting really good for blood sugar?[1:11:38] My 10 -year -old daughter has been wearing a CGM for about a month now. She has high anxiety and I noticed that when her anxiety is high, a juice box will calm her down at night. Once we put a CGM on her, we realize that her glucose is pretty low on average. How do we keep her glucose up without eating straight sugar all the time? What are some good glucose boosting snacks? Episode Links:Nutrisense CGMWell Minerals Vitamin CSponsors:Go to drinklmnt.com/wellfed and use code WELLFED to get a free 8-pack with any drink mix purchase!Go to curednutrition.com/wellfed and use code WELLFED for 20% off.Go to http://mdlogichealth.com/chocolate and use coupon code COLLAGEN15  for 15% off.Go to wellminerals.us/chill and use code WELLFED to get 10% off your order.

Grazing. Chronic stress. Poor sleep. Rushed meals. Sitting for long hours. Underfueled workouts. Estrogen decline. There's a lot more behind our fasting glucose and A1C than how many carbs we eat. This week we return to one of the most consistently requested topics: blood sugar meaning and management with Liz McKinney, CNS, LDN. We explore what glucose spikes really mean, why time-in-range and variability matter more than a single peak, and how stress, sleep, and even eating speed affect your numbers. We cover carb timing, meal sequencing, post-meal walks, creatine, why under-fueling can make exercise spikes worse, and much more so you can keep glucose working for your performance and overall health.Liz McKinney, CNS, LDN, heads up the clinical nutrition team at Nutrisense. Liz holds a Master of Science degree in Clinical Nutrition and Integrative Health and is a board-certified nutrition specialist (CNS) as well as a licensed dietitian nutritionist (LDN). In her time as a nutritionist, Liz has educated and counseled hundreds of clients in areas such as weight loss, hormonal imbalances, and gastrointestinal diseases. Her approach is rooted in the tenets of functional medicine, and she strives to identify the root cause of the issue instead of simply treating the symptoms. She realizes there is no one-size-fits-all approach to achieving optimal health and feels it is crucial to be in an equal partnership with her clients.

Hi friends! I'm SO excited to share this week's episode with symptom support coach Rachel Reimer, where we explore the fascinating connection between emotions and the body, and how unprocessed stress can show up as chronic symptoms, pain, and even autoimmune issues. Rachel shares how she helps clients uncover the emotional roots of their physical ailments - bridging the gap between traditional medicine and emotional healing. This conversation is such an eye-opener if you've ever felt stuck in your healing journey or wondered what your body might be trying to tell you. Here's what we discuss: Rachel's path from chronic illness to becoming a symptom support coach, also known as a medical intuitive How the body uses symptoms as a signal that something deeper needs attention The difference between intellectual and emotional processing of stress How to identify unresolved emotions that may be stored in the body Common emotional roots behind conditions like back pain, thyroid issues, and autoimmune disease The link between self-criticism, Type-A tendencies, and chronic illness Rachel's “knot” exercise for emotional release and symptom relief Real-life client transformations—from chronic pain to deep emotional healing Why physical healing alone isn't enough without emotional integration And so. much. more! This one's for anyone who's ever said “I've tried everything” and still hasn't found answers: Rachel's perspective just might change the way you think about your health forever.

Hi friends! I have a brand new episode live and I'm SO excited for you to listen to my conversation with Monica Cox all about understanding fertility through the lens of cellular health, the role of diet and mindset, and the emotional healing that supports your journey to motherhood. Here's what we discuss: Why fertility is often a cellular health issue—and what that really means The powerful connection between diet, emotional patterns, and fertility outcomes How to spot red flags in common fertility advice and choose practices that truly serve you The importance of intuition, joy, and radical responsibility in your fertility journey Why age is not the final word on your fertility potential Plus, Monica's inspiring personal story of loss, resilience, and natural conception after years of infertility. Monica Cox is the woman midlife professionals call when they've blown $50,000+ on fertility treatments that failed them. Monica helps women who've "tried everything" finally understand what their body actually needs to get and stay pregnant-without burning themselves out with endless protocols, diets, and treatments. Monica is raw & honest about fertility struggles that 1 in 6 couples face. She helps professional women finally get pregnant by addressing what conventional medicine misses: the gut-fertility connection, cellular inflammation, and those subconscious blocks nobody's talking about. Monica's refreshing "no BS" approach and methodology transforms fertility from a clinical nightmare into an empowering journey. Women are desperate for alternatives that actually work-and Monica delivers them with the perfect mix of science, soul, and tough love that midlife women are searching for.

In this episode, Dr. Sara Pugh and I have a laid-back, unscripted conversation about a variety of health topics. We dive into the benefits and limitations of using collagen, particularly for joint pain. I share my personal experiences with low estrogen and how turning 45 changed my perspective on health issues like joint pain. We also talk about the importance of circadian biology and quantum health, sharing how changing my diet and lifestyle helped me overcome fertility issues and mental health struggles, including my previous use of medications like benzodiazepines. Dr. Sara and I discuss the misconceptions around hormone replacement therapy and why it's crucial to understand your genetic makeup before diving into any treatment.

Hi friends! I have a brand new podcast episode live, and today I'm diving into a solo episode that I think so many of you will relate to: fatigue. We're talking about why you might feel tired all the time—even when you're doing everything right—and I'm breaking down some of the hidden reasons behind low energy that often go overlooked. Here's what we chat about: The surprising ways mineral imbalances can drain your energy (and what to do about it) How blood sugar spikes and crashes can sabotage your mood and motivation Why “healthy” diets may still be undernourishing your body and creating stress signals The connection between gut health and fatigue (it's way more important than most people realize) How your mitochondria—your body's energy engines—can get bogged down, and how to support them My thoughts on testing and tracking to uncover what your body is really trying to tell you How to build balanced, energizing meals that fuel your day instead of draining you Tips on supporting detoxification to keep your systems humming And how lifestyle tweaks (not just supplements!) can make a big difference in your energy, clarity, and mood I hope this quick episode will leave you feeling empowered, supported, and a little less alone if you've been dealing with that "always tired" feeling. ✨ Take a listen and let me know your favorite takeaway! As always, thank you for being here and sharing this space with me

Bill is back on the podcast today, and we are talking more about hypochlorous acid, Curativa Bay's products, and some incredible health benefits we have personally seen in my own family.

This time, we talk about how Curativa Bay's formulas are different from others on the market, the importance of pH for product effectiveness, and how these products support everything from skin health and respiratory function to pet care and anti-aging. I also share some of my favorite go-to products and how we use them daily. Topics Discussed: → What is Curativa Bay's hypochlorous acid?→ How does it help skin health?→ Can it improve breathing?→ What pH makes it work best?→ Is it safe for pets?Sponsored By:→ Troscriptions | There's a completely new way to optimize your health.

Hi friends! A brand new podcast episode is live and I'm so excited to share this conversation with Mario Brainović all about the most essential element of health: Water

What happens when your life as an elite athlete is stripped away—and you're forced to rebuild, not just your body, but your identity?In this powerful and personal episode, we sit down with Jamie Whitmore—a world-class endurance athlete whose story is less about podiums and more about persistence.Jamie was once one of the most dominant XTERRA racers in the world—winning races across continents, climbing mountains on her bike, and chasing down competitors on foot. But when life shifted, so did her focus. Today, she's a mother of twins, a coach to high school runners, a deeply intentional athlete, and a reminder that strength comes in many forms.We talk about:What XTERRA racing actually is—and why it's so brutally beautifulThe moment she lost her athletic identity, and how she found her way backWhy fear on a mountain bike was her way through, not away from, traumaTraining with a paralyzed leg, and what it taught her about compensation, patience, and adaptationHer daily habits: 5:00 AM wakeups, coaching teen athletes, core work, cross-training, and the power of doing less—but doing it wellWhy movement, variety, and play are the keys to longevity—and joyThe mindset shifts that came with motherhood, midlife, and physical changeAnd why being “gutsy” today looks different than it did in her 20s… but might matter even moreWhether you're in a season of rebuilding, reinvention, or quiet consistency—Jamie's story will help you rethink what real strength looks like.---

Hi friends! I have a new solo podcast episode going live, and in it, I'm sharing a practice that has become a cornerstone of my quarterly health routine: the EquiLife Detox. This episode dives into why supporting your body's natural detoxification pathways is more critical than ever in our modern environment. Here's a sneak peek at what we're diving into in this episode: What a detox truly entails (moving beyond restrictive juice cleanses) and why seasonal detox support can benefit nearly everyone experiencing fatigue, hormonal imbalances, allergies, or unexplained symptoms. The reality of daily toxin exposure from our food, water, air, and common products, and how this overload can manifest as symptoms like brain fog, stubborn weight, and skin issues. The science behind Phase 1 and Phase 2 liver detoxification, explaining why supporting both is essential for effective toxin elimination and to avoid common "detox flu" symptoms. My personal experience with the detox, detailing observed benefits such as increased energy, clearer skin, deeper sleep, and a significant reset of cravings. A discussion on why natural detoxification can be challenging in today's environment due to pervasive toxins and depleted nutrient content in food. My favorite modification tips for the detox, covering strategies for adjusting fasting days, incorporating additional fuel, and navigating coffee consumption. and so.much.more!

Hi friends! I have a new podcast episode live and I'm hopping in today with another solo episode all about morning routines! Here's what we discuss: Why morning routines are so powerful and how they can impact your mood, energy, and productivity throughout the day. My previous "rat race" morning routines and how she's evolved to a more sustainable, habit-stacked approach. "Non-time-structured" morning habits, including avoiding phone scrolling, getting sunlight exposure, and prioritizing hydration. My go-to, autopilot breakfast that's packed with nutrition and protein. Incorporating PEMF, red light, and binaural beats into her mornings for optimal well-being. The power of journaling and gratitude, and how to manifest your goals by writing them as if they've already happened. Book recommendations for cultivating a positive mindset and effective habits Creative ways to use AI (like ChatGPT) to optimize your daily routine and maximize productivity. The importance of consistency over intensity and finding what truly moves the needle for you, rather than comparing yourself to others. and so.much.more!

218: In this episode, I'm covering one of the most requested and controversial topics in women's health—whether breast cancer survivors can safely use hormone replacement therapy (HRT). To help answer this complex question, I'm joined by Dr. Corinne Menn, a board-certified OB-GYN, Menopause Society certified practitioner, and Fellow of the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology. Dr. Menn brings a powerful blend of clinical expertise and lived experience. She's a 23-year breast cancer survivor, BRCA gene carrier, and went through premature menopause herself. We cover what the research really says about HRT after breast cancer, risks versus benefits, the reality of estrogen deprivation, and why “it depends” is the only honest answer. Topics Discussed: → Can breast cancer survivors safely use HRT? → Is hormone therapy after breast cancer risky? → What are the benefits of estrogen for cancer survivors? → Does HRT increase breast cancer recurrence? → Are there safe hormone options for BRCA carriers?

Hi friends! I have a new podcast episode live and I'm so thrilled to share a solo episode with you all about a super common and often frustrating topic: Why it's hard to lose weight, even when you feel like you're doing all the things! Here's what we discuss: Why "calories in versus calories out" isn't the whole story when it comes to weight loss. The crucial role of mindset and stress in weight loss resistance, and how to calm your nervous system. Why under-eating might be tanking your metabolism, and how reverse dieting can help rebuild it. The impact of hormonal imbalances (estrogen, progesterone, thyroid) on your weight loss journey. The often-overlooked connection between gut health (parasites, Candida, SIBO) and inflammation/weight loss resistance. How over-exercising (especially too much HIIT and cardio without enough strength training) can backfire. The importance of mineral balance and how things like stress, caffeine, and sweating can deplete essential nutrients. The hidden impact of toxin load from our environment on hormones and metabolism, and gentle ways to support detox pathways. Why doing more isn't always the answer, and the importance of self-kindness, patience, and playing the long game for sustainable results. and so.much.more!

214: In this episode, I'm diving into all things histamine—what it is, how it functions, and why it might be the missing link in your hormone and immune health journey. After sharing insights on the connection between histamine sensitivity and hormone replacement therapy (HRT), the response was massive.  I'm unpacking why histamine issues are more than just food reactions, how they relate to estrogen, menopause, and chronic inflammation, and why there's no one-size-fits-all solution. I've dealt with histamine challenges my whole life and supported countless patients through it.  This episode is a deep, honest look at the bigger picture behind histamine imbalance. Topics Discussed:  What are the symptoms of histamine intolerance and how is it connected to hormone imbalances? How does histamine affect estrogen levels and hormone replacement therapy (HRT)? What causes high histamine levels and how can you support balance naturally? What is the difference between histamine intolerance and mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS)? How do lifestyle factors, diet, and gut health influence histamine sensitivity? Sponsored By: Nutrisense | Head over to nutrisense.io/drtyna to get 30% off your Nutrisense plan.

Sharing a new podcast episode with Dr. Peter Martone about sleep, how sleep posture affects your health, and tips you can implement right now. We talk about: - How sleep posture impacts your health - The ideal sleep posture - Keys to getting a great night's sleep and so.much.more. 176: How to fix your sleep and transform your health with Dr. Peter Martone Here's more about Dr. Martone and his background:  Dr. Peter Martone is an educator and patient care practitioner who has been focused on improving patient's biomechanics for over 23 years during his private practice as a chiropractor. Dr. Martone always believed that the structure of your spine effects the function of the central nervous system, and this principle is the cornerstone of his practice. Dr. Martone's core belief is that the central nervous system controls every function in the human body and in order to be able to express true health you have to keep your nervous system healthy. When your spine falls out of alignment due to poor spinal mechanics, it interferes with the proper function of the nervous system thus throwing the body out of balance. Peter's mission is to help as many people as possible achieve optimal health function and performance so they can reach their full potential in life. During his 23 years of practice, Dr. Martone found it harder and harder to keep his patients aligned due to the stress of the modern-day lifestyle on their posture. His patients were coming in with the same problems which inspired him to come up with an innovative solution to help correct patients spines while they sleep. He worked with designers and engineers to create the Neck Nest, his newest product that helps correct patients spines while they sleep. Dr. Martone's revolutionary concepts are designed to help restore proper biomechanics of the spine by adopting a neutral sleeping position, helping you sleep better, live longer and be healthier. His techniques have been featured on CBS, NBC, Fox News, Dave Asprey's Upgraded Conference, and over 50 podcasts as he travels the world teaching people how to regain their health by mastering the art of sleeping.

Stunning as it may sound, nearly half of Americans ages 20 years and up – or more than 122 million people – have high blood pressure, according to a 2023 report from the American Heart Association.  In this lesson I will share the worst blood pressure advice given to you from your doctor, the real cause of high blood pressure, and easy steps to naturally lower high blood pressure.  Most doctors will tell you high blood pressure is a result of a diet high in salt. The belief that salt consumption raises blood pressure is based on bogus science. It originates from French scientists more than 100 years ago, who 'based their findings on just six patients'. Salt, emphasizing its role in maintaining proper hydration, supporting adrenal function, and enhancing nutrient absorption. Salt helps the body balance fluids, regulate nerve and muscle function, and maintain acid-base balance. For people who are active or on low-carb or ketogenic diets, salt intake is even more essential, as they can lose more sodium through sweat and reduced insulin levels. DiNicolantonio explains that salt can also improve blood flow, support cardiovascular health, and reduce cravings for sugar by balancing electrolyte levels.  What is the real cause of high blood pressure?  High levels and blood glucose and insulin! Eating too many carbohydrates inhibits the production of nitric oxide. Nitric oxide is responsible for vasodilation. When the blood vessels constrict because of the lack of NO, the heart has to work harder. This is what increases blood pressure!  How do you measure your blood sugar and insulin levels? Fasting insulin Fasting blood sugars Post prandial glucose  CGM KETO MOJO 5 ways to naturally lower high blood pressure. Your first step is to replace insulin producing foods with foods that lower insulin. This will lower blood sugar levels and blood pressure levels.  The second step: Eat the 5 best foods proven by science to lower blood pressure, The third step: eliminate snacking in between meals and practice time restricted feeding.
