Episode 15 Do you feel puffy, exhausted, foggy-headed… and frustrated that your body seems to be working against you? In this episode of The Health Connection , Mari and Amy unpack one of the most overlooked drivers of fatigue, low energy and hormone imbalance: chronic inflammation. They’re talking about the quiet, low-grade inflammation that builds up from stress, poor sleep, blood sugar crashes and ultra-processed foods… and how it subtly affects your metabolism, mood and fat storage. In addition, they address the common reaction of busy mums who tend to blame themselves for feeling stuck, as well as simple solutions to lower inflammation naturally. If this sounds like you, then this conversation will be a breath of fresh air. Your body isn’t broken - it may just be overwhelmed.
