Why You’re Always Tired: Dr. Libby Breaks Down the Hidden Health Triggers
Dr.Libby is one of the most trusted voices in nutrition and wellness. She has a PhD in nutritional biochemistry and 14 best selling books to back it up. Her latest life changing book is “Fix Iron First.”Dr.Libby is passionate about educating others on stress, women's health, and the emotional drivers behind our food choices.To put it simply- she’s awesome. And this is a small part of the Dr. Libby story.I tried to balance this episode so we could tick two boxes: 1. Get to know a little bit more about Libby as a person- who she is when she’s not working. 2. Pick her brains and get some nutrition-based advice that we can all use to improve our own lives (sharing your Qs from social media).I’m hoping all of us can get learn a thing or two from this conversation, like:+ The real reason you might be tired all the time.+ Why perimenopause needs more honest conversation+ The emotional side of eating—and why beating yourself up about it doesn’t helpPlus, Dr. Libby shares personal reflections on aging, relationships, and how she built her iconic brand in the wellness world. This was the first time we met, and I loved our very early morning podcast (7.30am) and I hope you do too. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
