Do you have big plans for 2022? Do you like setting goals? This podcast may or may not be for you. 

We're going to give you three ways to not achieve your health goals.

Have you ever had someone tell you that you have high blood pressure? What is one piece of advice that many people receive when they’re told they have high cholesterol? To stop consuming so much salt. It makes sense right? Some people even respond well to eating less salt. 

But what if eating salt wasn’t actually the problem? What if something else was making the salt too high, leading to high blood pressure?

PCOS is the most common form of infertility in women. What maybe at the root cause of PCOS?  And can there be anything that you could do about?

Do you have difficulty losing weight? Do you have hormone issues, like PCOS? Do you have non alcoholic fatty liver disease? Do you have high blood pressure? What do all of these issues have in common?

Do you crave coffee or sugar in the afternoon? Do you feel sleepy in the afternoon? Do you feel exhaustion that is relieved by eating? Do you experience headaches when you've skipped a meal or delayed a meal, or do you feel like it's hard to manage your emotions when you haven't eaten in a while? Or do you have shaky hands?

Do you wake up in the middle of the night and feel wide awake? Do you have a hard time falling back asleep when this happens? The answers to the problem of sugar cravings are very similar to the problem of sleep issues. 

Soda is craveable in so many ways. There's the fizz that creates a party in your mouth. The flavors are so nostalgic. The sweetness that satisfies your front row taste bud and gives you a dopamine rush it, just thinking about it.

Sugar cravings aren't just a matter of willpower. If you have a lot of sugar cravings throughout your day, it doesn't mean anything negative about you. You have plenty of willpower. So if this is the case that you don't need any more willpower, what do you need? 

Let's talk about the answer to this question. First thing we're actually going to give you two answers. The first one is what the medical community considers a normal frequency, but we are going to give you what we consider an optimal frequency. We love optimal.

We're going to go through what is likely happening in this situation and what you can do about it, which will come as a huge relief for those of you that deal with this because these artificial smells are everywhere, it can be really frustrating, especially when you're stuck in a vehicle, a house, a bus, a store on a bench or at a doctor's office or a workspace, or even your friend's house.
