If you feel like your nervous system is shot, your adrenals are exhausted, and anxiety is constant… this nutrient matters more than you think. 💭

Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) plays a key role in supporting the central nervous system, stress resilience, and mood balance. That’s why it can get added to some GABA and relaxing supplement blends.

Here’s why it matters:

🧠 Supports calming neurotransmitters
Vitamin B6 is required to make several brain chemicals, including dopamine and GABA.
GABA in particular helps calm the nervous system, block adrenaline, and reduce the “wired but tired” feeling that many people experience with chronic stress.

⚡ Supports the stress response
The adrenal glands rely on B vitamins - they are literally the adrenal glands fuel ⛽️- including B6, to help produce and regulate stress hormones. When the body is under prolonged stress, nutrient demand or burn rate increases which can contribute to fatigue, irritability, and anxiety.

🌿 Helps regulate the nervous system
Adequate B6 supports healthy nerve signaling and can help stabilize mood, emotional resilience, and sleep patterns.

💊 Supports hormone balance
Vitamin B6 is also involved in estrogen and progesterone metabolism and seems to help with symptoms like irritability, mood swings, and PMS.

🥗 Food sources include:
• Liver
• Poultry
• Salmon
• Potatoes
• Bananas
• Red meat 🥩

Alternatively you can take a supplement in P5P form.

When someone is dealing with chronic stress, anxiety, PMS, or poor sleep, vitamin B6 or a methylated B complex is one of the nutrients I often look at first.

Small nutrients can make a big difference in how the nervous system feels day-to-day.

😶‍🌫️ Brain fog is one of the most common symptoms women report during perimenopause.

Memory lapses. Slower recall. Difficulty concentrating.

In this clip from my recent conversation with , I asked him about the potential role of Methylene blue for cognitive performance, neuroinflammation, and mitochondrial support in the brain.

Since many women going through perimenopause struggle with mental clarity and focus, I was curious about how this compound might fit into that conversation.

Methylene blue has been studied for its effects on mitochondrial energy production and brain metabolism, which makes it an interesting topic in the discussion of brain health and longevity.

🎙️ The full conversation is now available on my podcast “𝙁𝙞𝙣𝙙 𝙔𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙈𝙤𝙙𝙚𝙡 𝙃𝙚𝙖𝙡𝙩𝙝" on all major podcast platforms.

If you’re navigating perimenopause and dealing with brain fog or cognitive changes, you may find this discussion helpful.

A bright blue textile dye from the 1800s…
ended up becoming one of the most fascinating molecules studied in medicine.

In this clip, explains the origin story of Methylene Blue.

Originally created in 1870 to dye fabric, scientists later discovered it had powerful biological effects - including antimicrobial and antiviral activity.

👉🏻 Today, researchers are exploring methylene blue for its potential effects on:
• mitochondrial function
• brain health and cognition
• metabolism and cellular energy
• infections and immune resilience

This short clip is from my full conversation with Dr. Sherr where we dive into the science, history, and modern research behind methylene blue.

⏰ 𝑺𝒑𝒓𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑭𝒐𝒓𝒘𝒂𝒓𝒅 - How Losing An Hour Affects Your Body.
Spring forward isn’t just about the clock - your body actually feels it. Here’s what losing one hour of sleep does to your hormones, metabolism, and mood…”

When we “spring forward,” we lose an hour of sleep. 😴 and even a small shift can ripple through your hormones, metabolism, and mental health for the whole week!
👉🏻 Cortisol: Your body’s internal clock (circadian rhythm) cues cortisol release in the morning. Losing sleep shifts this rhythm, leaving you feeling anxious, restless, or more reactive.
👉🏻 Metabolism & Appetite: Sleep loss increases inflammation which increases insulin resistance and increases ghrelin (hunger hormone) while lowering leptin (satiety hormone). This can trigger stronger cravings, lower energy, and a feeling of being insatiable. You will also notice a slower metabolism if tracking your basal metabolic temperature 🤒.
👉🏻 Mood & Mental Health: Your brain produces serotonin and dopamine following a sleep–wake cycle. Losing an hour disrupts this balance, which can lead to irritability, low mood, and brain fog. Further compounded by the extra inflammation.
👉🏻 Menstrual Cycle & S*x Hormones: Even a small sleep shift can affect estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone rhythms. Some women might notice slight cycle changes, stronger PMS symptoms, dips in energy, or lower libido - depending on where they are in their cycle 🔄.

⏳ How long does it take to adapt?
Most people take 3–7 days to fully adjust to the one-hour change, though it can be longer if you’re sleep-deprived or sensitive to circadian shifts.

Quick tips to help your body adjust faster:
✅ Stick to your regular wake-up and bed “times” as closely as possible
✅ Get morning sunlight to reset your circadian rhythm
✅ Move your body - am exercise or a morning walk helps
✅ Avoid caffeine after noon, to protect sleep quality
✅ Keep your evenings calm with dim lights and minimal to NO screens 🛑

Spring forward may only shift the clock by an hour, but your body notices! Be patient, give yourself grace, and support your sleep, hormones, and mood this week.

𝐂𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐫𝐲 𝐀𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐨𝐦𝐚 & 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐫 𝐇𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧. 🍒
A client yesterday mentioned she had 2 new red spots that look like “blood spots” on her arm and asked me what they are.
These are what’s known as “cherry angioma” and are very common, and generally harmless.

are benign blood vessel tumours that look like bright red moles. Sometimes elevated lumps and sometimes not. The collection of small blood vessels inside a cherry angioma give them a reddish blood like appearance.

They can occur in anyone, at any age but can be more apparent as we age - with many women noticing an increase in perimenopause.

👉🏻 Low or fluctuating progesterone can create estrogen dominance, which is associated with increased skin changes - like spider veins, skin tags, and possibly cherry angiomas - due to its vascular effects.
👉🏻 As estrogen clearance slows (due to liver damage, methylation issues, etc.), estrogen metabolites can affect skin and vascular tone. A sluggish liver can also contribute to a toxic load that shows up in the skin, promoting angiomas.
👉🏻 Midlife hormonal shifts often bring insulin resistance. Insulin is a growth-promoting hormone and is tied to angiogenesis (formation of new blood vessels), which may promote cherry angioma growth in predisposed individuals.

This type of skin growth is typically not a cause for concern unless it bleeds, or changes in size, shape, or colour. Or the area becomes hard, tender or painful. Talk to your doctor if you notice any bleeding or changes in your skin - cherry angioma or not.

Otherwise no need to stress too much - just stay on top of your health and especially hormone health. 🙂

The “𝓖𝓵𝓸𝔀 𝓹𝓮𝓹𝓽𝓲𝓭𝓮”… what is it actually? ✨

In this clip from my podcast, I ask Dr. Iman Bar to explain the peptide combination people are calling the “Glow stack.”

It often includes peptides like BPC-157 and GHK-Cu (copper peptide), which are being explored for tissue repair, recovery, and skin health.

Peptides are one of the fastest-growing areas in regenerative and metabolic medicine right now — and the science is evolving quickly.

Peptides for perimenopause? Yes… they might be more helpful than you think.

Perimenopause is a time when many women start to notice shifts in sleep, recovery, mood, inflammation, metabolism, and body composition.

Peptides are short chains of amino acids that act as signaling molecules in the body. Instead of forcing hormones, many peptides work by supporting the body’s own communication systems.

In the perimenopause years, certain peptides are being explored for their potential to support:

• Sleep quality
• Recovery and tissue repair
• Metabolic health
• Cognitive function and mood
• Skin and collagen production

They don’t replace healthy lifestyle habits or hormone support when needed, but they may become another tool in the toolbox for women navigating hormonal change.

I had a fascinating conversation about this with peptide researcher and expert .

🎧 If you’re curious about peptides and how they work in the body, the full conversation probably one of the best conversations on peptides in my opinion (but I am biased 🤪) and is now available on YouTube and your favorite podcast platform.

𝙋𝙚𝙧𝙞𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙤𝙥𝙖𝙪𝙨𝙚 𝙢𝙖𝙠𝙚𝙨 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙇𝙖𝙘𝙩𝙤𝙨𝙚 𝙄𝙣𝙩𝙤𝙡𝙚𝙧𝙖𝙣𝙩...
Nope. Not true.

I saw another educator post this recently - advising women to stop consuming dairy.😳

Lactase (your lactose enzyme) is genetically determined, and it doesn’t magically disappear at 40 or 50.
Most of the time if a woman has issues with dairy, it’s usually because her gut is very inflamed.

What can change in perimenopause?
Hormones and the stress response shift → gut sensitivity and inflammation increases → you may notice bloating or IBS symptoms more easily.
That’s not dairy’s fault. That’s hormones and biology.

If dairy suddenly feels “harder to digest,” it’s usually because:
• progesterone drops → slower bowels
• estrogen swings → more bloating + histamine issues
• stress → lowers stomach acid
• inflammation increases and the microbiome shifts with age

That’s gut sensitivity, not lactose intolerance.

And here’s the kicker: most women in perimenopause actually need more dairy, not less!

Keep your yogurt, keep your cheese, keep your calcium and protein.
Your bones, adrenals and metabolism will thank you. 💪🧀💛

𝙋𝙧𝙤 𝙏𝙞𝙥; if you find you have issues with certain forms of dairy. Try full fat options first.

One of Dr. Platt’s final conversations and he’s saying what most people still don’t understand about hormones.

We dive into:
• The real role of estrogen (and why understanding it matters)
• Why not all estrogens are the same
• Why progesterone is often the first place to start
• How one specific hormone imbalance impacts anxiety, sleep & stress
• What high morning cortisol really means
• Signs your hormones may need support
And lots more! ☺️

Whether you’re navigating perimenopause, menopause, anxiety, or even have a new born that won’t settle, this episode is packed with practical, clinical, science-backed insights.

😵‍💫Most anxiety isn’t just in your head - it starts in your body (your adrenals). Here’s why adrenaline is the hidden culprit.

In this clip, Dr. Michael Platt explains why elevated adrenaline can drive many anxiety symptoms - keeping your nervous system stuck in tension and hyper-alertness.

👉🏻 we also discussed how adrenaline can affect dogs, babies in the fetus, newborns, and how progesterone maybe the answer.
