Our current lifestyles and technology have a massive impact on our health! Dr. Tricia Pingel joins me today to focus on recognizing stress. She believes that we become so accustomed to stress that we fail to recognize the significant impact it has on our health. In this episode, she encourages you to start prioritizing yourself and setting boundaries for your health and longevity. We also discuss the nutritional impact of chronic low-grade stress that leads to future disease development.

The four areas Dr. Tricia addresses in people with adrenal fatigue:

Diet
Exercise
Supplementation
Prioritizing yourself, setting healthy boundaries, and practicing gratitude
