Your bloods say you’re fine,

but you don’t feel fine?

The hidden blood test nuggets – Cortisol Hormone

Are you feeling anxious and you don’t know why?

Do you feel numb/meh/bleh and not like yourself and can’t be bothered with anything lately?
 
Have you been feeling so sluggish that you’re struggling to wake in the morning and could easily nap in the day?
 
Are your muscles achier than usual? Your motivation non-existent?

You might think your stress hormone cortisol is super high, but I bet my bottom dollar it’s actually too low.
 
Low cortisol issues are massively overlooked because we generally assume cortisol is high ALL THE TIME.

But if tiredness and low moods are in the picture – then you may be looking at it all wrong.
This also means a lot of support & supplements to REDUCE cortisol are causing more harm than good.

How hasn’t this been flagged in your blood test results?
#1. Cortisol isn’t generally tested unless you ask
#2. For your blood test to flag a low cortisol – your cortisol has to be MASSIVELY struggling.
 
Aka. you’ll be feeling so flat emotionally, physically and mentally. And usually placed on antidepressant medication before having your cortisol looked at.

But there is a much more specific reference range you can look for with cortisol to know it’s healthy and doing well and NOT causing your tiredness, anxiousness or meh mood.

 

 
And that is what we dive into on todays poddy episode on the Frazzled to Freakin’ Free podcast.

This episode is part 5 – all about your cortisol hormone and how to detect if it’s too low.
A lot of my clients are shocked expecting high cortisol because of how go go go and easily stressed they are – but these are also classic signs of LOW cortisol.

So let’s figure out if you’re the same.

 

Listen to part 1, 2, 3 and 4 – all about discovering the true nutrient deficiencies in your blood test results such as vitamin D, iron and vitamin B12 and about your thyroid hormones. (especially if you’ve been told you’re ‘fine’)

Your bloods say you’re fine,

but you don’t feel fine?

The hidden blood test nuggets – Thyroid Hormones

Have you been feeling so sluggish that you’re struggling to wake in the morning and could easily nap in the day?
 
Are you struggling to focus and feel like it takes mental effort just to think of a word?

Have you noticed you’re feeling more anxious, your moods dropped, your hair might be falling out more than usual or you’re gaining weight?

Then you might have a thyroid hormone issue.

Your thyroid hormones are the master controllers of your metabolism, oomph and go. They fuel your body and help it heal & recharge.
So if your thyroid isn’t working well – you’re going to feel like a total zombie.

The problem is, thyroid hormone problems are massively overlooked.
Because for your blood test to flag your thyroid – your thyroid has to be MASSIVELY struggling.

Like falling asleep while driving struggling.

The reference ranges for your thyroid hormones detect diagnosed hypothyroidism that need thyroid hormone replacement (aka. a thyroid that is under-functioning and not making your thyroid hormones).

Your thyroid doesn’t go from super happy & well to not functioning at all – there is a middle ground where it’s beginning to struggle, not producing enough thyroid hormones – and YOU will feel the effects.

This stage, where your thyroid isn’t super happy, is detectable in your blood test results if you know the reference range to look for.

And that is what we dive into on todays poddy episode on the Frazzled to Freakin’ Free podcast.

This episode is part 4 – all about your thyroid hormones and how to detect if they’re not working well and the blood test results we want you to have to know they ARE functioning well.
And let me tell you, 85% of my clients thyroids are not happy campers and need some TLC.

So let’s figure out if you’re the same.

Listen to part 1, 2 and 3 – all about discovering the true nutrient deficiencies in your blood test results such as vitamin D, iron and vitamin B12. (especially if you’ve been told you’re ‘fine’)
