Are you relying on coffee to fight off morning fatigue—but still crashing by afternoon? There’s a reason. In this episode of Health with Hashimoto’s, I talk with Ben Bressington, founder of Bare Remedy, about the real connection between coffee and cortisol and how that daily cup might be stressing your thyroid instead of helping it.

Ben shares how high caffeine intake tricks your body into thinking it has energy while secretly spiking cortisol and draining your adrenals. You’ll also hear how functional mushrooms and adaptogens can support your body to create steady, natural energy instead of faking it with stimulants.

In this conversation, you’ll learn:

• Why caffeine can make Hashimoto’s fatigue and anxiety worse


• How mushrooms help balance cortisol and support energy naturally


• What to look for in quality mushroom and adaptogen supplements

If you’re ready to stop riding the caffeine rollercoaster and feel real energy again, listen now—and grab your free sample of energy gummies (you pay shipping) from Ben here:  https://bareoils.co/podcast
