Welcome back!
My name is Samantha Linden,
Also known as the Blissful Soul.
This is our series,
Happy Hormones,
A 30-day gut reset for women.
If you haven't started from day one yet,
I highly recommend doing so to maximize your success and understanding.
Have you ever felt stuck in a food rut?
It might be your diet,
Or creatures of habit,
And it's easy to fall into the routine of eating the same things every week,
Especially when life gets busy.
But this could be affecting your body and your hormones.
Our gut is home to trillions of bacteria,
Crucial for our overall health.
These little helpers break down sugar,
Reduce inflammation,
And eliminate toxins.
So eating various foods is vital to keep these bacteria thriving.
Eating different foods keeps your taste buds happy and gives your gut bacteria the nutrients they need to succeed.
If you're in a food rut,
Try adding new fruits,
Vegetables,
Whole grains,
And proteins to your meals to keep your gut happy and healthy.
Don't be afraid to try new foods and flavors.
Your taste buds and your body will thank you for it.
Switching up your diet is super important for your health.
Want some inspiration?
Look up Dr.
Terri Walls.
She healed herself from MS by changing her diet.
Dr.
Terri focused on becoming a fat burner and ate over 200 different plants,
Veggies,
And fruits each month.
By incorporating a variety of nutrient-dense foods into your meals,
You can improve your overall health and potentially reverse certain chronic conditions.
Dr.
Terri Walls' incredible journey is a powerful reminder of the transformative impact of dietary changes on our well-being.
Think about what you eat in a week.
If you notice you're eating the same foods all the time,
It's time to mix things up and try new foods.
Adding more variety to your diet can support your gut bacteria,
Improve your health,
And help you manage your weight better.
Nature offers many different foods,
So let's embrace that diversity in our diets.
Let's explore the endless possibilities of fruits,
Vegetables,
Whole grains,
And lean proteins that nature offers.
By incorporating a rainbow of colors and a variety of textures into our meals,
We nourish our bodies with essential nutrients and tantalize our taste buds with new and exciting flavors.
So let's step out of our comfort zones and experiment with different cuisines,
Recipes,
And ingredients to experience the richness and diversity of the food world truly.
Let's embrace the endless possibilities of culinary creativity and embark on a delicious journey of discovery that will broaden our palates and deepen our appreciation for the art of cooking.
Let's savor each bite to celebrate culture,
Tradition,
And innovation.
Let the vibrant colors and tantalizing textures of our meals inspire us to continue exploring the endless wonders of the food world.
Keeping our hormones happy means mixing our foods and adjusting our fasting windows to match their needs.
Over the next four days,
Our hormones will start to shift again,
So let's dial it back a bit and not fast as long.
I want you to break your fast at the 13-hour mark for the next four days.
Some of you might be tempted to go longer because you're used to fasting,
But remember,
Variety is key and we need to cater to our hormones.
We'll chat more in the coming days about why shorter fasts are beneficial right now.
See you tomorrow as we continue this fun journey of balancing our hormones.
