I often say if you can’t fix sleep problems, you can’t fix any hormone problems. Sleep comes up in a lot of my podcast episodes for that reason! However on this episode I’m joined by Dr. Valerie Cacho to talk about several things I have covered less often on the show including sleep studies, sleep apnea and other medical issues that can impact our sleep. We touch on various types of sleep studies as well so you can know if you’re really being evaluated the way you need to for your unique sleep issues.
Learn more about Dr. Val and her company Sleephoria which focuses on helping women sleep better so they can be engaged, confident and supported in their wellbeing.

We all know the downsides of alcohol, but it is still something many decide to enjoy on occasion. Most of us also notice that especially as we get into our 40s and beyond that one glass of wine feels like way more than a glass the next day. If you choose to indulge, one dose of ZBiotics before drinking any alcohol can make you feel way less yucky the next day! Cool…but how? The yuck the day after having alcohol is due to a buildup of acetaldehyde (a byproduct of alcohol metabolism). ZBiotics is a probiotic formula that helps you break down acetaldehyde in the gut so you can have a great workout and a great day even after a drink the night before.

One of THE BEST tools for your health is a CGM, continuous glucose monitor. It helps you effortlessly understand what foods work for you and even how stress and sleep impact your blood sugar allowing you to make changes in real time. A CGM also allows you to see your glucose variability (the difference between your highs and lows) which may be as important as how high your blood sugar runs. It’s an amazing tool and Nutrisense has my favorite interface with their app and dietitian support! It’s easy and straightforward and with code BETTEREVERYDAY at checkout you can save $30 off a subscription. Click here and be well on your way to better health.
