Description

Stress affects virtually every aspect of our health, from our waistlines to our sleep quality, but few of us truly understand the physiological mechanisms at work. Nancy Masoud from LockedIn Wellness takes us on a fascinating journey into the science of stress, explaining how the fight-or-flight response triggers cortisol release and creates what she calls "double trouble" for our bodies.When cortisol levels rise, we experience increased appetite (particularly for comfort foods) while simultaneously storing more fat around our midsection. This explains why stress often leads to weight gain even when we're conscious about our eating habits. Rather than simply accepting this as inevitable, Nancy offers a refreshing approach focused on identifying and addressing the root causes of stress.The conversation explores innovative testing methods like Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA), which reveals critical information about mineral imbalances that contribute to stress responses. These imbalances can manifest as anxiety, fatigue, emotional eating, and even addiction, as demonstrated in the powerful story of a 24-year-old client who overcame severe anxiety and alcohol dependency through targeted nutritional interventions.Nancy also addresses the complex relationship between hormones and stress, particularly during perimenopause and menopause. From hot flashes triggered by food sensitivities to sleep disturbances that elevate morning cortisol levels, she offers practical insights for managing these challenges naturally. The holistic approach at Locked In Wellness—combining nutritional support, acupuncture laser therapy, and personalized protocols—provides hope for anyone struggling with stress-related health issues.Want to transform your relationship with stress and reclaim your health?
