The NutriSense program, which combines a CGM device, health tracking app and one-to-one support from a registered dietitian, can help you understand your glucose levels and optimize them. In episode 86, I speak with Molly Downey (Nutrition Manager at NutriSense) about blood sugar balance and how a continuous glucose monitor can help you achieve better glucose levels. This was a really interesting episode to record. I really enjoy reviewing new health products, and the CGM device is definitely another tool in my toolbox! Blood sugar has been something I wanted to learn more about and improve (because there's always room for improvement!). Honestly, it was such a great experience, I absolutely loved all the data and analytics the CGM and app provide. At first the data was a little overwhelming, but the educational library and the registered dietitians are super helpful. With all the information I obtained from using the CGM, I was able to make some changes in my diet and lifestyle to see improvements in my energy, mood and concentration. .

The thyroid is an organ in the body that is often referred to as a ‘hormone powerhouse’. This is because it plays a role in various functions in the body including metabolism, ovulation and heart rate. Hypothyroidism is described as a hidden cause of PCOS because it often goes undiagnosed. In the video I identify the signs/symptoms of thyroid problems and I provide treatment tips.   Mira has successfully taken away the stress and guesswork involved in predicting your fertile and infertile days.

In this episode I debunk 7 PCOS diet myths. With an over abundance of information (which is often also very conflicting) on what your PCOS diet should look like, it can be difficult to know what to follow. So because I understand how overwhelming it is, I have identified 7 PCOS diet myths. These are things we have followed and implemented at one point in our PCOS journey. Following these diet approaches I mention in the episode are not supporting the body because they are not addressing the root cause. They are just pushing them body more into a hormonally wrecked and metabolically suppressed state. .

Today I am sharing with you why I went gluten free, my experience and whether gluten is something you should avoid too. Gluten is a protein found in wheat and it is often described as a 'bad' food and said to be the cause of all chronic disease. As result, there has been a large surge in people going gluten free. But is gluten really a food to fear or is the gluten free diet that is adopted by so many simply a fad?
