Bitesize: Biohacks to Boost Adrenal Function & Ditch Burnout


Listen Later

Angela presents a bitesize biohack alongside Dr Izabella Wentz, where the focus is on fixing adrenal protocols and addressing stressors that impact the body's response to stress. The discussion delves into various factors such as sleep deprivation, psychological stress, history of traumas, nutritional stressors, and the importance of pleasurable activities in reducing stress levels

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Sleep deprivation, psychological stress, history of traumas, nutritional stressors, and excessive exercise can all send danger signals to the body and contribute to adrenal dysfunction.
  • Ensuring blood sugar balance, consuming adequate protein and fat, replenishing depleted nutrients like B vitamins and magnesium, and incorporating mitochondrial support can help in restoring adrenal health.
  • individuals experiencing adrenal burnout, longer fasts, extreme exercise, and other high-stress activities may exacerbate symptoms rather than improve them. It's essential to listen to the body and prioritize gentle, nourishing practices.
  • Engaging in activities that bring joy and relaxation, such as spending time in nature or pursuing hobbies for enjoyment rather than profit, can help shift the body from a stress response to a thriving state.

BEST MOMENTS

"Fasting can be healthy for a lot of people if they're healthy enough to fast, but when you're in a really depleted state, fasting can actually send your metabolism further from what you want it to be."

"I see a lot of improvements in deep sleep. Deep restorative sleep and REM sleep are some of the improvements that we start seeing when the body gets into this state where we start healing in our sleep."

"I think we've kind of been conditioned over the last few years as women that we've got to be doing these super high-profile jobs and fasting for like 16 to 24 hours a day or even three-day water-only fasts."
