🍽️ Balanced Nutrition: Eliminate foods that drain your body's energy and focus on consistent, balanced meals to regulate blood sugar levels and support overall energy and health.

🧘‍♀️ Mindful Eating: Establish a routine of three to four meals a day, avoiding skipping meals to maintain energy levels and prevent the body from conserving energy unnecessarily.

Quotes from Bria Gadd:

"I kind of hit this moment where I was like, if I'm in the wellness industry and I don't know this, how on earth are all the other women who are doing beautiful things in this world going to be able to figure out this information?"

"If you're having symptoms more than like once every two weeks, you're in health debt. It's there. It's happening."

"I think that's really the most important thing here, is that we start to pay attention and trust what our body is saying to us more than what people are saying outside of us."
