Most people think sleep is for the weak

I say they’re wrong

Your future health & today’s performance depend on how well you rest

Your stress is under your control

There are 3 pillars you need to consider to better manage it:

Brain chemistry
Adrenal Health
Gut Harmony

Each play a crucial role in your wellbeing

THREAD Image
Your stress is a silent fire that slowly kills you

but your body has a natural capacity to deal with it

Health problems like uncontrollable anxiety or sleep problems arise once you lose this innate resiliency
Targeting your brain chemistry is a great starting point for stress management

Your brain uses chemicals known as neurotransmitters to help you stay calm

Serotonin and GABA are both used to bring you into the present moment & relax you, respectively

One of the worst things you can do is let your stress get out of control

What starts off as a bit of anxiety can eventually evolve into panic attacks or worse

The earlier you catch it

The faster you’ll start feeling better once you make a few tweaks to your routine

THREAD
When stress cripples you, it’s almost like you’ve been hit by train

You’re too exhausted to spend time with your family

You wake up in the morning feeling half dead

It sucks

I know because I’ve been there

But there are ways you can prevent this
Start by taking more magnesium glycinate in the day

It’ll help calm you down

L theanine in the morning sharpens your focus and gets you in that flow state

Exercise is an outlet you must prioritize

Sunlight and nature are your best friends too

Thiamine is the most underrated and overlooked vitamin deficiency

More research is coming out that shows how important this nutrient is to your wellbeing

Way more than you’ve been led to believe

THREAD
Thiamine (also known as Vitamin B1) deficiency is believed to be a thing of the past

Medical doctors and other clinicians are taught that it’s extremely rare and only seen in:

Alchoholics
Surgery recovery (bariatric)
Eating disorders (anorexia)
Interestingly

Many health clinicians are very aware of other B vitamin deficiencies such as:

Folate (B9)
B12
Niacin (B3)

Thiamine, on the other hand, gets no attention whatsoever

Now, let's dive deeper into why

Seed Oils are everywhere

Most packaged food you find in your grocery store contain them

They've been marketed as a "healthy" low-fat option to protect you from heart attacks

but more and more people are waking up to the scam

THREAD
Now, this is a question I get from many of you all the time:

"What are seed oils?"

Here is the list of the most commonly used ones:

Corn
Canola
Cottonseed
Soybean
Safflower
Peanut

They're made up of a specific type of fat known as Polyunsaturated Fatty acids
There are two types of fats found in nature

Saturated Fats
Unsaturated Fats

The difference (without boring you too much about the chemistry) is that saturated fats are solid at room temperature

while unsaturated fats (seed oils) are liquid at room temperature

No matter what they tell you

Anxiety is beatable

I’ve done it

& so can you

THREAD
Exercise is your best partner to win the war

We’ve been brainwashed to sit in front of a computer all day

And never move

That unused energy needs to flow somewhere

Where does it go?

Into your mind

Improve cognition and lower your stress by staying active
Sunlight is brain food

Not getting enough screws up your mood

And only makes your anxiety worse

Go outside and absorb that solar energy

It’ll help you sleep better at night and lower your stress
