Episode Summary

In this episode, we tackle the final piece of the big three—caffeine! While it's a daily staple for many, caffeine has a direct impact on adrenaline and blood sugar, which can contribute to inflammation and chronic pain. We explore gentle ways to step away from caffeine dependency while still maintaining energy and focus. From B vitamins to morning workouts, learn how to power up naturally without relying on that daily cup of coffee.
