She is also an author of bestselling books and today we dive into her latest one, the “Adrenal Transformation Protocol: A 4-Week Plan to Release Stress Symptoms and Go from Surviving to Thriving.”

IN THIS EPISODE:

Thyroid Issues and Adrenals
90% of people with Thyroid issues and Chronic Fatigue have some sort of Adrenal Dysfunction because of an intimate connection between thyroid hormones and stress hormones. Some people develop Hashimoto’s after a significant time being “stuck” in a stressed out survival state.

How Stress affects the Adrenals
It is important to support stress function in order to properly support adrenal function. With any autoimmune disease, the first thing we have to remove is stressors. May it be mental, emotional, physiological, environmental, or food related. That is why it is important to properly assess the state of our clients in order to best recommend the best course of action for them.

Adrenal Transformation Protocol Overview
Safety Signals – Learning to eliminate danger signals (flight or flight mode) and turning them into safety signals such as how to make the body feel like it isn’t in a famine. 

Nutrients – Going over the nutrients that get depleted during stress and nutrients that are needed under stress that support the thyroid and adrenals to get into a thriving state. 

Daily Habits – Going over the day-to-day routines of clients, do they have negative self-talk, are they doing enough things that bring them joy and energy, are they exercising appropriately.
