Fix Your Thyroid and Adrenal Health with Award Winning Dietician Nutritionist, Christa Biegler

Angela talks to Christa Biegler, an expert in helping women with burnout and adrenal function. They discuss the importance of thyroid health and its connection to adrenal and sex hormone function, with Christa sharing her own journey of experiencing skin outbreaks and gut issues, which led her to discover the impact of stress on her thyroid and adrenal function.

The show also delves into the symptoms of thyroid dysfunction, such as fatigue, hair loss, and cold intolerance, focussing on the significance of mineral balance, particularly potassium and sodium, in supporting optimal thyroid function

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Thyroid health is crucial for overall well-being and metabolism. Symptoms of thyroid issues include fatigue, hair loss, feeling cold, and sluggish motility.
• Adrenal function plays a significant role in thyroid health. When cortisol levels are elevated due to stress, it can lead to potassium depletion, which affects digestion, thyroid function, and energy levels.
• Fasting and under-nourishing the body can worsen adrenal and thyroid function. It is important to prioritise nourishing foods and avoid extreme fasting practices, especially if already depleted.
• Adding mineral-rich foods to the diet, such as potatoes with skin, avocados, and bananas, can help replenish potassium levels and support overall mineral balance.
• Lifestyle behaviours that promote balance and support adrenal, sex hormone, and thyroid function include avoiding excessive stress, getting adequate sleep, managing inflammation, and incorporating holistic practices like mindfulness and self-care.

BEST MOMENTS

"So many of our issues are just hung up in control of wanting to control every outcome, everything”

"If you're fluctuating more than five pounds or two, two and a half kilos of body weight over a couple of days, that's inflammatory water weight that can be related to a bigger picture of inflammation."

"I think there's a mineral issue. And also from an energetic perspective, sometimes it's indicative that you're holding onto things that you need to let go of the most."
