In this episode, Nicole interviews Amanda Harr, one of the lead dietitians at HSN, Amanda shares her knowledge and passion about hormones and how they affect weight loss. They cover various hormones, including thyroid, cortisol, serotonin, insulin, and sex hormones. They also touch on the role of sleep and stress management in maintaining an adequate metabolism. Overall, this episode aims to empower women to take control of their health by understanding their hormones and how they can affect their weight loss goals. Stay tuned for an insightful and informative discussion! In this episode, you'll learn: Understanding the different parts of the thyroid feedback loop, including TSH, T4, and T3, is important to maintain healthy hormone levels. Stress, nutrient deficiencies, infections, and extreme diets can impact hormone levels. Spending time outdoors, taking walks, practicing yoga, getting enough sleep, and reducing screen time are ways to improve mental and physical health. Sleep affects leptin and ghrelin levels, which are important for regulating appetite and satisfaction. Poor lifestyle choices like lack of exercise, poor sleep, and excessive screen time can negatively affect children's health. Having margin in one's schedule and reducing screen time before bed improves the secretion of melatonin, which is essential for better sleep, lower cortisol levels, better leptin and ghrelin levels, and adequate melatonin for egg quality, particularly for those who want to get pregnant. Taking melatonin supplements does not necessarily help one stay asleep. A de-stressing wind-down process before bed, including box breathing, can help one sleep better. Sex hormones relate to women's menstrual cycles.

Today is going to be really fun. This podcast is actually geared for parents first but then meant to be shared with your teen. 10 things I wish I knew about nutrition as a teen athlete. Most teenagers, especially girls, want to look a certain way. We don't realize the food that we eat and how it fuels our body and how it's truly how we are going to build muscle, get stronger, get faster, and recover from strenuous workouts, especially when we are teen athletes. I remember growing up doing gymnastics and then cheerleading and my nutrition while I ate healthy foods. I definitely didn't eat. Well, in today's podcast, I'm hoping that you get an outsider's perspective for your children, for your teens, so that they understand how the food they eat fuels their body, fuels their brain, and is going to help them get stronger and healthier. The goal of nutrition and healthy eating at a younger age isn't meant to be a fight. We want to empower our kids to eat healthily and want to eat healthily. I know it sounds crazy, but it is definitely possible. I hope you enjoy this episode and please share it with your teen. I know it will impact them and help them think twice about their food decision so that they can perform better in school and sports.   10 things I wish I knew about nutrition as a teen athlete. Food is fuel - it gives you energy.  You need to try something 12-15 times before you know if you really like it or not Food can be the most excellent medicine or the slowest poison  How do you prepare things matters? Try roasting and get in the kitchen! One day you will be on your own and you will need to know how to cook.  What you eat impacts your mood What you eat impacts your quality of sleep Severe calorie deprivation to lose weight (fasting or eating minimally) will slow down your metabolism and works against you Salads aren’t always the best option!  If your parents make you eat healthily, it’s because they love you! The healthy habits you create today will impact you 20, 30, and 50 years from now Links: ▼ ▽ Free Help From Healthy Steps Nutrition Sign Up For Weekly Email Including 3 Health Tips, Healthy Recipe & More HERE | https://api.grow.pushpress.com/widget/form/BZ43TcGZul998X5X3TZW ▼ ▽ Connect With Us HSN Mentoring Instagram HERE | https://www.instagram.com/hsn_mentoring/ Healthy Steps Nutrition Instagram HERE | https://www.instagram.com/healthystepsnutrition/ Nicole Aucoin Instagram HERE | https://www.instagram.com/nicole_rd_hsn/ ▼ ▽ Healthy Steps Nutrition & HSN Mentoring We believe something as fundamental as nutrition shouldn’t be complicated, which is why we focus on a simple habit-based approach.
