Hey guys! Food for thought… literally!
Most of us are conscious and very aware of our Macronutrients (protein, fats, and carbs). What if I told you that was just the tip of the iceberg? What’s inside your macros is also critical- the micronutrients.
If you were to look at your nutrition and really learn about your body (specifically your gastrointestinal tract), you’d be shocked to learn about how little you are really absorbing. (Example, you absorb approximately 33% of a whey protein) Why is this important???? We all have “gaps” in our nutrition and every person is unique in their gap combination. Micronutrients are the key component in filling those gaps to optimize one’s health. Big nutritional gaps can lead to depression, lack of sex drive, anxiousness, metabolic syndromes, auto immune disorders, and much more. Over the years our food and supplement industry has been corrupted by manufactured products containing dozens of drugs, chemicals, and artificial additives that our bodies do not know how to break down causing an increase in diseases and other complications. Light is being shed on the power of nutrient dense super foods to reverse these effects. This is not a quick fix, it takes discovering the gaps, filling them and consistency for the individual.
I suffer from hypothyroidism. Low T3, so low I crashed. Once the docs got my T3 stable, my T4 crashed. It was a nightmare. I’ve taken the last 1.5 years to regulate it naturally by focusing on my micronutrients, learning which foods were keeping my GI inflamed and hindering my natural energy.
I have been asked to do a micronutrient challenge to prove this theory by providing my numbers and data. I look forward to sharing!
