Fairy tales usually have happy endings!<br \/>\nIf you\u2019ve got a moment, stick with me for a quick recount that leads you to a much happier ending than it might appear from the title of this tale.<br \/>\nIn 1780 an Italian anatomy professor discovered that a spark of electricity could cause the limbs of a dead frog to twitch. And just recently I used this historical tidbit in conversation with a client who was concerned that she had become a \u201cfood addict\u201d.<br \/>\nThis self-proclaimed \u201cfood addict\u201d is a gorgeous woman who\u2019s been through some rough patches in her adult life. She\u2019s highly capable and well-versed in the ways of making healthy food choices and taking good care of herself.<br \/>\nThe \u201cfood addict\u201d knows how to make herself a batch of date-sweetened and grain-free brownies instead of grabbing a sugar-laden one from the corner bakery. She knows to sip her green tea instead of caving for the cup of coffee she\u2019s craving in the late afternoon.<br \/>\nAnd yet, she surrenders to old patterns more often than she\u2019d like.<\/p>\n<h3>The result?<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>more fatigue<\/li>\n<li>increased bloating<\/li>\n<li>embarrassing puffiness under her eyes<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This is the point in the story where we come to a fork in the road.<br \/>\nOne road leads us down the path of exploring food addiction and the psychological reasons we eat when we\u2019re not hungry.<br \/>\nThe other road leads us toward the physiology behind those decisions:<br \/>\n<strong>What might be happening internally that takes hold of the steering wheel and sits solidly in the driver\u2019s seat?<\/strong><br \/>\n<em>You know that sensation I\u2019m talking about, right\u2013where your decisions seem out of your control?<\/em><br \/>\nWhile it\u2019s true that both paths may need to be explored, let\u2019s take a look at what\u2019s down the latter path for our \u201cfood addict\u201d. What\u2019s happening inside her body that\u2019s driving her decisions to grab that cookie or latte when she knows she\u2019ll be left regretting the decision, not on principle, but on how she actually <em>feels<\/em> on the <em>inside?<\/em><br \/>\n<strong>Sitting before me were the recent labs for the \u201cfood addict\u201d, labs that showed:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>depleted iron levels (iron carries oxygen to the body\u2019s cells for energy)<\/li>\n<li>sluggish thyroid hormone production (thyroid hormones control your body\u2019s energy supply, regulating metabolism and body temperature)<\/li>\n<li>depressed cortisol production (cortisol is one of the hormones released from your adrenal glands that allows not only for fight-or-flight but also your daily get-up-and go\u2026ie. ENERGY!)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>energy, energy, energy!<\/h2>\n<p><em>(did you catch that?)<\/em><br \/>\n<strong>she had 3 physiological strikes against energy production<\/strong><br \/>\n<em>Can you see where the jump start of the dead frog comes in?<\/em><br \/>\nNot yet?<br \/>\nOK. Let me explain\u2026<br \/>\nWhat the self-identified \u201cfood addict\u201d and I were able to see by looking deep through the physiological lens is how the psychology or patterns of behavior were driven not only by mind games, but also by several hormonal and nutritional imbalances.<br \/>\n<strong>She was eating to literally try to boost her energy!<\/strong><br \/>\nShe was making choices in an attempt to resuscitate the \u201cdead frog\u201d with a spark of electricity (in the form of sugar or caffeine).<br \/>\n<strong>There are better ways to achieve a more solid and longstanding spark,<\/strong> ones that won\u2019t leave you or our \u201cfood addict\u201d feeling fatigued, bloated, puffy (or addicted), after the spark has faded.<br \/>\nWhere to start?<br \/>\nStart by nurturing the adrenals glands so they can do what they\u2019re supposed to do for you, and learn how to restore your baseline energy production.<br \/>\n<em>Did you know this is actually the season to nurture your adrenal reserves?<\/em><br \/>\nThe adrenal glands produce myriad hormones, several of which affect your energy levels.<br \/>\nStress and inadequate nutrition are precursors to altered hormone production and can easily lead to substantial fatigue. There are a good number of stressors that tax the adrenal glands and contribute to this fatigue.<br \/>\nThey include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>lack of sleep<\/li>\n<li>poor diet<\/li>\n<li>physical trauma<\/li>\n<li>emotional trauma<\/li>\n<li>chemical toxins<\/li>\n<li>excess exercise<\/li>\n<li>infections<\/li>\n<li>anxiety or depression<\/li>\n<li>prescription drugs<\/li>\n<li>pregnancy<\/li>\n<li>and, let\u2019s face it, the fast pace of everyday living!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>And there are a number of ways to address that fatigue from the core.<br \/>\nYou don\u2019t need to feel like you\u2019re jump-starting a dead frog each morning or afternoon. The frog\u2019s not dead. It just needs a little help getting its hop, skip and groove back.<br \/>\nYou know my favorite place to start is with the choices we make, day in and day out. And today I want to invite you to hop and skip over to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/fxnalliance\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">FxNA Recipe File<\/a> to get kitchen inspiration, revitalize what feels like the dead frog within, and most certainly get your groove back.<br \/>\nSee if you can make one choice to find what I like to call \u201cthe cradle\u201d. The cradle is the place where you offer <em>yourself<\/em> the care and support you would your very own child.<br \/>\nYour cradle can include things like:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>going to bed an hour earlier<\/li>\n<li>upgrading your breakfast or afternoon snack with a good-for-you goodie that you find in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/fxnalliance\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Recipe File<\/a><\/li>\n<li>or remembering some of your favorite practices from one of the past cleanses or detoxes that we\u2019ve done together that may have dropped off your radar<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The best thing about a cradle is that <strong>you choose!<\/strong><br \/>\nThe moral of this story? To resuscitate the seemingly dead frog, go for <em>love<\/em> and <em>compassion<\/em> as opposed the shock value.<br \/>\nNow go rock your cradle!<br \/>\nWarmly,<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.fxnutrition.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/signature.png\" alt=\"Andrea Nakayama\" width=\"158\" height=\"71\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-15428\" \/><\/p>\n<p>P.S.
