It’s a busy, stressful week and while I’m working hard to maintain my daily habits, I’m finding it hard to get my body in a parasympathetic state.

What does this mean? When the brain senses a stressor and tells your hypothalamus, it tells your pituitary gland, which tells your adrenals to release stress hormone. Minerals along with vitamins and cholesterol are the building blocks of hormones and the efficacy of someone’s stress response is dependent on the synergistic balance of minerals at the cellular level.

Supporting your body with electrolytes such as magnesium during times of stress is helpful.

1.Food
I always take a food first approach. The best foods to ensure magnesium in the diet:
-cooked leafy greens
-dairy
-avocado
-cacao
-bone broth

2. Supplements
It differs from person to person. My favorite magnesium supplements are magnesium glycinate (calming) and magnesium malate (energizing). Work with a healthcare practitioner to find the best approach for you.

3. Electrolytes.
You can increase electrolytes from a homemade concoction (mix 4oz juice, 4oz coconut water and 1 tsp. high quality salt or from packets (I like LMNT and Pickleball).

How can you boost your minerals during a busy week?

Do you need something sweet after a meal? Dark chocolate to the rescue!

We finish our meal and find ourselves searching through the pantry to find a sweet treat. Let’s explore the benefits of why dark chocolate us the perfect fit.
⁠
✔️Dark chocolate is a great source of the key minerals such as, zinc, magnesium, & iron.⁠

✔️Dark chocolate contains polyphenols and flavonoids! What are they?

-Flavonoids are an antioxidant found in cacao. Antioxidants protect against free radicals which are unstable molecules that can cause cellular damage in the body. ⁠
-Flavonoids stimulate the production of nitric oxide. Nitric oxide causes your blood vessels to relax, improving blood flow. Better blood flow can help lower blood pressure & improve cognition. ⁠
-Polyphenols are reducing agents, and together with other nutrient reducing agents, such as vitamin C, vitamin E and carotenoids, protect the body's tissues against oxidative stress and inflammation.

✔️What dark chocolate lacks in sugar, it makes up for in flavonoids, polyphenols, & minerals.
⁠
✔️The higher the percent cocoa, the higher the flavonoid content, and the more benefit you will get from the chocolate.
- Can you get as high 80% cocoa (or higher). Also, check labels for brands that contain less than 5 grams of added sugar per serving.
- Another option is to add 1-2 tbsp of cacao nibs or 100% cacao powder (no added sugar) to smoothies or energy balls.
⁠
Will you join me in adding flavonoids & polyphenols to your plate this week?

Traci messaged me last week to tell me that she’s been using the visuals, written guidance and recipes inside this guide to level up her nutrition.
And over the last 2 weeks she’s noticed an increase in:
⚡️physical energy; running 🏃‍♀️ longer without feeling completely ⛽️ out of fuel!
🧠 mental energy; she’s not running around trying to remember where she left her keys when it’s time to leave the house for work!
💪 motivation; because she is seeing results from increasing her protein and actually being consistent in doing it, she’s more motivated to keep focusing on her nutrition. She’s even gotten to the gym more in the last 2 weeks than she has in the last 3 months!
So many of you have reached out to me over the years asking how to consistently hit your protein targets.
You do “good” for a while and then life happens and you “fall off” just enough that it keeps you staying stagnant with your weight loss goals!
And this is why inside the Protein Power Pack we break down exactly how to stop 🛑 MISSING THE MARK and start seeing results like Traci is seeing!

Whether you’re:
👉 an animal eater who desires to incorporate more plant based foods into your diet
👉 someone who chooses to eat plants over meat
👉 eating plant based for ethical or religious reasons certain times of the year (like Lent coming up 😉 🙏)

YOU ABSOLUTELY CAN HIT YOUR PROTEIN TARGETS eating more plants!

How?

See 👀 Protein even in the most uncommon places!

Like in veggies, a place where protein is commonly overlooked! Go for foods like:

🥔 POTATO (with the skin) - 4g/ 1 medium
🍄 Mushrooms - 4g/1 cup
🥗 Asparagus - 3g/1 cup

Now - is it likely you’re going to sit down and eat 1 whole cup of each of the veggies above?

Which is why when we created the “2023 PROTEIN POWER PACK” we show you exactly how to take portions of veggies and other non animals proteins and combine them for max PROTEIN intake!

And we do this by giving you NEVER SEEN BEFORE DIAGRAMS, VISUALS, RECIPES that include more plants - OR - are vegetarian!

Because - trying to create a “system” for doing this on your own is a real PAIN IN THE NECK!

AND because - you can hear your doctor’s voice in the back of your head saying “you should eat more vegetarian for your health,” but what does that even mean?

This PROTEIN POWER PACK “SHOWS YOU” what it means so that you can get your protein and not sacrifice your ethical and religious choices!

AND - if you’re wanting to make little tweaks without investing 💰 in a complete nutrition overhaul - this is for you!

Grab it NOW before it’s gone soon my friends

I know it’s shocking but you can absolutely hit your protein goals without using protein powder! 🤯

You just DON’T KNOW HOW!

And - that’s why you continue to invest a couple hundred dollars every month or two!

And I get it because our clients feel the same way when they first come to us. Maybe you can relate?

🤔 Too rushed and stressed in the morning that your fall back is always a SHAKE 🥤

🤔 Craving your favorite muffins and brownies but feeling like if you allow yourself to eat them “as is” that you won’t hit your protein goals for the day, so you’ve made it a habit to always add protein powder to the recipe!

🤔 Everyone at the gym you’ve joined for the NEW YEAR is using protein powder saying how much easier it is to hit your protein goals so now you just feel tied to using it, out of habit!

But once clients learn HOW TO GET THE PROTEIN they need through whole food first, and stay consistent in doing it, they realize that protein powder doesn’t need to be their daily “go-to!”

They see protein powder as a way to “carry them” in a pinch like when they are traveling or when they prepared breakfast 🍳 but just dropped their beautifully-crafted sangy on the floor 😬😝

And YOU CAN TOO!!

Inside our 2023 PROTEIN POWER PACK GUIDE you will find specific ways to:

💪 make protein swaps that get you to goal AND eat them in a variety of ways!

💪 batch prep high protein meals and snacks so feeling like you don’t have TIME ⏰ no longer stands in your way!

We are so excited to show you exactly which foods give you the most bang ‼️ for your buck so that you aren’t spending your hard earned BUCKS 💰on expensive protein powders that PS - might not be getting fully absorbed by your gut anyways!

𝐄𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐟𝐞𝐞𝐥 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐞𝐚𝐭 𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐛𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐩?

Like if you allow yourself 1 cookie or 1 piece of bread that you just end up SNACKING ALL DAY LONG? 😫

I GET IT and I’ve been there.

As a child my family ate A LOT of 🍝 ! We also had milk, bread and dessert. A super carb heavy meal!

And I felt like DEATH 💀 after dinner and for the rest of the night.

And - it also happened every other day of the week that I loaded up on carbs and forgot about the importance of other nutrients, like !

Protein helps:

🩸balance out the affects of carbs, regulating blood sugar!

🍴to keep you feeling fuller longer so you end up snacking less often!

🧠 Improves function of the weight regulating hormone, ghrelin, which tells your brain it’s time to eat!

Many studies show that those who increase protein intake TO 30% or more ended up eating less food volume daily - and didn’t feel as though they were “restricted” at all! 🤯

Once I learned the importance of incorporating more protein and actually how to get it on my plate consistently every day - I no longer felt miserable.

And I want you to feel this way too, which is why next week we are going to REVEAL something that will be a complete game changer for you when it comes to protein!

And it’s something EVERY SINGLE PERSON can use, regardless if you are a 🕺or a 💃 or what nutrition goals you are working on 💪

The #1 way to boost metabolism is by
(wait for it)…🥁🥁🥁

Of course portions and choices of foods are key! And technically there comes a point where this can be counterproductive - but generally speaking “it takes calories to burn calories!”

Out of all of the 3 macronutrients; Carbs, Proteins and Fats - is by far the most efficient at burning energy, by some 20 to 35% according to some studies.

How? It takes more energy to digest protein, which contributes to the overall calories you burn 🔥 at rest.

But more importantly - a higher protein diet can change the way you STORE the calories you DO eat!

Studies done on subjects who consumed a high protein diet, on average, stored 45% of the calories consumed in muscle whereas those who consumed a LOW PROTEIN DIET stored 95% calories in FAT 🤯

And if you can build more LEAN MUSCLE MASS, you can burn calories more efficiently and keep your metabolism rev’d up!

So does this make protein superior to the other macros? - because truly all macronutrients play key roles in the body, but it does make it pretty damn important, especially if weight loss is your goal!

And that’s exactly why we want to help you find easier ways to get the protein you need!

Because we want 2023 to be the year you achieve your goals!

The BIG REVEAL IS COMING SOON! KEEP A CLOSE EYE OUT 🤓

“You aren’t going to recommend I eat 🍗 chicken and broccoli 🥦 every day are you because I might 🤮 if one more person tells me this is what I need to do in order to “heal my hormones”!

This is what our client Liz said this week when she started coaching with us.

She’s been through so many NEW YEARS gym “challenges” and cookie cutter meal 🍽️ plans that recommended CHICKEN 🐔 as the main source of protein!

And while there’s some great qualities about chicken that can help you achieve your health goals, including that it’s high in protein and low in fat…

It’s also extremely BORING and monotonous 🙄 to eat the same thing every day!

The good news is that YOU DON’T HAVE TO!

In fact, you can skip the CHICKEN altogether and meet all of your protein needs with a variety of other foods!

And we are going to show you EXACTLY HOW we get our clients, like Liz, to reach their protein goals consistently without eating foods that bore them!

STAY TUNED FOR THE BIG ANNOUNCEMENT 📣 ahead! You won’t want to miss! 😉

🥳 I’m so excited to work with Nutrient Rich Life! 💃

Coach Laura comes to us with 20 years of amazing experience as a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist!

Her SUPERPOWER is helping middle aged women balance their hormones so that they can improve:

👉 Energy; you cannot eat the way you’ve always eaten and expect the same results as hormones shift in your 40’s and 50’s!
👉 Sleep; as estrogen begins to get all funky and progesterone naturally decreases, sleep is impacted. It’s hard to fall asleep or stay asleep.
👉 Heart & Bone Health; one of the biggest protective benefits of estrogen is that offers a protective barrier to your ❤️ and 🦴 and once it decreases, you’re naturally at risk for cardiovascular disease and weakened bone structure.

And Coach Laura can help with all of these things, because she’s personally been through all of these things!

She’s a busy Mom, wife and professional who understands how stress impacts hormones and how those hormones tie into immune functions in our body and also impact other systems like our thyroid.

She’s traveled her own health journey, and is able to personally relate to how nutrition and lifestyle change can be complete GAME CHANGERS with female health!

If you’re feeling run down, stressed, imbalanced and suffering from mid-life hormonal dysfunction, COACH LAURA IS YOUR GIRL!
