Bulletproof radio, a state of high performance. I want to know, were you so effing tired? Is this part of it? Actually, this is exactly what happened to me. For far too long are all of our concerns about why we're so tired just get brushed off? Right. If you don't show up as visibly sick and failing on a lab test, you're basically pushed aside and said, okay, you're. You know, it must be. You're getting older, you have a busy life for women. It's like you're a mom. You're. You're trying to do too many things, and nobody really gives us any direction. We're left to our own defenses. And what I found is the studies back that up. Only 3% of people who go in for fatigue or, like, complaints of tiredness even get a diagnosis. And so. And 3% is, by the way, is any random person walking into their doctor. And the chances of them diagnosing any problem is the same chances of you complaining of severe fatigue on a daily basis of getting an answer. So 3%. So I knew I was. I was in that 97% that didn't get an answer. And I knew that there was something wrong, but I couldn't put my finger on it because, like I said, nobody could really tell me. So. So I started to look into, you know, what is this? Is this gut health? Is this hormone health? Is this immune health, like inflammation? And long story short, what I learned for myself, I shared on Instagram and through my blogs and podcasts, and that's what came together in this book. What I learned is that energy is a culmination of all three things. Gut health, hormone health, and immune health. They're talking to each other at all points of the day. I had no idea that these three areas communicate, and they talk to the brain constantly. And if any of those are broken, then you're gonna be tired. And so things like short fasting, circadian fasting, syncing with nature, and circadian rhythms, which is our internal clock, and eating the right foods really can make a difference. And, of course, there's this whole component of mind, body health, which we sorely miss in Western culture. So what you eat, when you eat, and mind, body health were the three things that I came up with at the end.
