What’s on my plate this month?<\/h1>\n

my body’s ever changing needs<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n

\n\n\n\n
\n
Oftentimes clients will ask me how they know when they’re\u00a0there<\/em>.
\n\"iStock_woman-driving\"Are we there yet?<\/strong>
\nHave we reached our dietary goal?
\nIs this the stopping point?
\nIs it all better now?
\nBut for some of us,\u00a0there<\/em>\u00a0is an elusive place that’s as hard to reach as OZ during waking moments. It’s not that we can’t (and don’t!) achieve our goal weight, energy and physical stride. It’s that it can be challenging to stay\u00a0there<\/em>. . . forever.
\nI’m not talking about the difficulty of\u00a0Sticking With It!<\/em>, of learning how to heed your prescribed dietary plan or known parameters for optimal health. Instead I’m referring to the changes that occur within our bodies themselves.
\nAs your body changes, so does its dietary needs.<\/strong>
\nThis elusive\u00a0there<\/em>\u00a0is certainly true for any of us who have autoimmunity or compromised immunity. Yet it’s also true for those who experience stress or aging.Hey, that sounds like all of us.<\/em>
\nWhat it means is that the body is in flux.<\/strong>
\nIn autoimmune conditions the times when we know we’re off track are called “flares”. A flare is the sudden onset of symptoms ~ it could be as extreme as a rash, dizziness or an attack of acute fatigue. Yet it may also appear more subtly, as something seeming slightly\u00a0off<\/em>.
\nWhile I work hard to manage my own autoimmune thyroid condition (Hashimoto’s), I know full well that certain things can be triggers that upset the balance of my delicate system.
\nThose triggers can be stress, overwhelm and even air travel. They can be a bite of a food that my body recognizes as toxic, or the cold I caught from my son. And all of a sudden I’m no longer\u00a0there<\/em>.
\nI’ve come to recognize a flare for myself not as some overt expression that completely takes me down, but instead a touch of inflammation somewhere in my body (currently the tender breasts that I struggled with before I determined the diagnosis), a shift in my mood and outlook (away from my usual bright yet stealth disposition), and ultimately, the realization that I have to step up the self-care even more.
\n(Damn<\/em>, I thought I was there!)
\nIn this way, I thank my autoimmune condition. It provides a feedback look that keeps me highly adaptable. After all,\u00a0survival of the fittest wasn’t referring to those with the most toned bodies, but instead to those who were most adaptable<\/strong>.<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n
\n\n\n\n
Interestingly, stress doesn’t just happen outside the body, as a work deadline, a sick kid or parent, or a struggling relationship. Stress can happen\u00a0inside<\/em>\u00a0the body all the time.That’s why I have two dietary pillars that I return to as a baseline each time I feel the balance of\u00a0there<\/em>\u00a0disrupted.<\/strong>They’re the foundation of adaptability and self-care.They’re the same two pillars that I share with my clients as the backbone of health. And I’m going to share them with you today.<\/p>\n

Pillar #1: Tend to your gut.<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Digestion is where it’s at. Truly. If your digestion isn’t working for you, your body is under stress.
\nThis is why I’m so excited to be teaching over\u00a0400 health and nutrition professionals<\/strong>about the importance of the digestive system in the\u00a0Holistic Nutrition Lab: Digestive Intensive<\/a>.
\nTomorrow we gather to dive further into the function and the physiology of the system that is the interface between our food and our cells, delivering either friend or foe. It’s not to late to join us!<\/p>\n

Pillar #2: Tend to your blood sugar<\/strong><\/h2>\n

As your blood sugar spikes and slumps, based on what you eat and your particular body’s response, the result is a physiological burden that has both immediate and long term consequences.
\nBlood sugar management is so important that I decided to host a ‘live’ online Q&A: Why Blood Sugar Matters next week.<\/strong>
\nYup. You can hop on the phone with me and get your questions answered in a virtual classroom designed for discussing blood sugar.
\nThere’s nothing to register for. No form to fill out. Just join me!
\nMark your calendar and reserve the time to tend to this critical pillar in yours and your family’s lives:<\/p>\n

What: Why Does Blood Sugar Matter Open Q&A with me<\/h2>\n

When: Thursday, March 21st at 5pm PT \/ 8pm ET<\/h2>\n

Where: online, from your home, you’ll just hop on the phone (I’ll provide the details next week)<\/h2>\n

Why:\u00a0because blood sugar matters!<\/em><\/h2>\n

Like I said,\u00a0there<\/em>\u00a0can be elusive. We want to be adaptable. Let’s start by returning to the basic pillars of health, again and again.
\nWarmly,
\n\"AndreaSig\"<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n
