Welcome back to the Nutrition Edit Podcast! Today, we're diving into part two of our discussion on what to do when nothing seems to be working on your wellness journey.

In episode four, we laid some groundwork, so if you haven't listened yet, I highly recommend giving it a listen. But don't worry if you're jumping in here first – you'll still get plenty of valuable insights from today's episode.

So let's tackle our first point: detoxification. It's a term that's often misunderstood, but it's crucial for supporting your body's natural cleansing processes. From keeping your bowels moving with fiber-rich foods to staying hydrated to flush out toxins, there are simple steps you can take to support detox without falling for gimmicky cleanses.

But detox isn't just about what you put in your body – it's also about what you expose yourself to. Switching to non-toxic personal and household products can reduce your body's toxic load, which can interfere with weight loss and overall health. Remember, it's not just about weight – these toxins can contribute to serious health issues like cancer and diabetes.

Next up, we're tackling the myth of "more is better" when it comes to exercise. Pushing yourself too hard without prioritizing sleep and stress management can actually hinder your progress. Instead of overdoing it with intense cardio, consider incorporating restorative movement like yoga or simply taking time to rest and recharge.

Celebrating your wins along the way is crucial for maintaining motivation and staying on track. Don't wait until you've reached your ultimate goal to pat yourself on the back – celebrate the small victories and milestones along the way. It's all part of enjoying the journey and staying committed to your health goals.

Finally, if you've tried everything and still aren't seeing results, it might be time to dig deeper. Underlying health issues like thyroid imbalances can sabotage your efforts, so don't hesitate to seek support from a functional medicine doctor or nutrition professional who can help uncover the root cause of your struggles.

Remember, your journey to better health is unique to you, and it's okay to ask for help along the way. Whether it's tweaking your diet, adjusting your exercise routine, or addressing underlying health issues, there are solutions out there – you just have to find what works for you.
