The Epigenetics of Brain Inflammation, Mood Disorders, and Strategies to Heal with Carolyn Ledowsky
Why do low-carbs need so much sodium? When insulin levels drop, so does the production of the hormone aldosterone. This triggers a process that makes you LOSE sodium at a rapid rate, causing headaches, low energy, muscle cramps, and insomnia. LMNT Recharge\u2019s low-carb energy drink powders fix the problem so you feel your best!

\u201cThere's a whole lot of cascades that happen when our body is inflamed, and that could be infection, gut bugs, COVID, a virus, or a bacteria. So the body goes, okay, I sense there's something going on here. I'm going to upregulate inflammatory pathway, short term only so that I can deal with this."
