She was being prescribed Metformin, and Angela had insulin resistance. After doing research, Angela started to understand that there was a connection between PCOS and what she ate. When Angela had the surgery for PCOS, she found out about her endometriosis. After having three children, Angela realized there is a connection between the brain, the body, and the impact on your immune system. [06:30] Advice For Dealing With Depression The first thing you need is acceptance. In life, the only thing you can be certain of is change. Anything you can do to create peace in your life will be helpful to you. If you want to run away from yourself, how are you going to sit with yourself? Work on dealing with small moments first. [10:40] The Brain and Gut Connection: Depression Is Linked To Leaky Gut About 90% of serotonin is made in the gut. You can help your gut to create more serotonin. Aligning with your circadian rhythm will also improve your brain. Natural light from the sun will significantly improve your circadian rhythm and allow you to get more sleep at night. Women are depleted of vital nutrients, particularly things like DHA in the brain. It takes a woman two years to recover from pregnancy. [14:10] How You Can Reverse Your PCOS For Good PCOS is a syndrome and is related to insulin resistance. Carbs, stress, and not sleeping will raise your blood sugar. Some people are genetically more carb sensitive. Having protein and healthy fats are really key things that make you feel better. If you have too many carbs, you will feel quite foggy. Another thing that improves insulin sensitivity is strength training. [21:30] Sleep Is An Essential Pillar of Health Sleep is going to make everything else in your life easier. In Angela’s corporate job, people would brag about only getting three hours of sleep at night. Most people need seven or eight hours of sleep. You are compromising your health and the way you look when you get less than six hours of sleep at night. [25:35] Tips For Getting Better Sleep At Night How well you sleep tonight is going to be changed by what you did this morning. Get outside early in the morning. That way, you're really regulating the cortisol and melatonin cycle. Red light therapy is also a beneficial tool. Another tip for getting better sleep at night is limiting your exposure to blue lights. [31:10] Hormones: Know When To Dial Back Your Stressors Make sure you have a nutrient-rich diet and you are not constantly stressing your body out. Everyone should fast for at least twelve hours every day. For women, there’s a time when you can push and stress your body, and there are times when you should not. Before your period, you're naturally going to have higher levels of inflammation, so it’s time to do less high-intensity exercises and start dialing things back. [35:00] The Importance of Insights On Your Health Journey You need to know how you feel when you wake up in the morning. If you don’t have a way of tracking, then it will be challenging to know when things start to change. If you can’t afford trackers, just start with pen and paper. A CGM is probably the best thing you can get to really fine-tune your eating behavior and lifestyle behaviors. [37:45] Fuel: There Isn’t A Perfect Diet That Fits Everyone There isn’t one diet that works for everyone; however, there is a perfect diet for you. You can test some of your genetics to understand your sensitivities around carbs and fats. Eating a more ancestral diet is really important; take out processed foods. How you treat your body is the greatest gift you can give yourself. [42:30] Train Your Body and Train Your Mind You need strength training to maintain and build muscle mass. Also, you want to do some cardiovascular training. The more muscle mass you have, the better insulin sensitivity you're going to have as well. Walking is underrated; you need to get up and get your steps. AND MUCH MORE!
