Anxiety is a complicated issue and in various episodes I\\u2019ve discussed how the gut plays into mood, stress and anxiety as well as different types of stress responses and stress management skills. In this episode however, I\\u2019m going to dive a bit deeper just into how cortisol plays into anxiety and fear - and it\\u2019s a lot more complicated than \\u201chigh cortisol makes you feel stressed and anxious\\u201d. Cortisol metabolism, inflammation and the cortisol awakening response (which indicates our ability to recover from stress) all come into play and I cover that all as well as also how we assess these various aspects and which supplements and lifestyle habits will help.\\xa0

Did you know that 95% of women taking a prenatal are still nutrient deficient? The founders of Needed saw this as a big problem and I couldn\\u2019t agree more! But Needed quickly became a bigger solution to a bigger problem by providing more options for moms and moms to be. Women need so much support during the time from thinking about getting pregnant all the way to having little ones and so often they are left with options that don\\u2019t address their needs (prenatals that have nutrients in the wrong forms or that they can\\u2019t take due to nausea) or they are left with low energy, anxiety or even colds/flus while they are pregnant or nursing because there aren\\u2019t natural products that are considered safe during these times. Needed solved all of these problems as well as created a community of no-guilt, education and support for new moms and moms to be.
