A guide to conquering burnout and increasing your energy from a leading medical doctor and nutrition expert

EXHAUSTION DOESN'T HAVE TO BE YOUR NEW NORMAL

Does it feel like your life is too busy, your days are too short, and you're feeling overworked, overstressed, and overtired? Chances are you've asked your doctor for help, only to be told that it's because of your age, or your workload, or, worse, that it's just "normal."

If so, you're not alone. Women of all ages are suffering from an epidemic of fatigue and burnout. But exhaustion doesn't have to be your new normal. Inspired by her personal wellness journey, integrative medical doctor Amy Shah has created this program so that you can regain your energy and reclaim your life.

The key is tapping into the powerful energy trifecta: the complex relationship between your gut, your immune system, and your hormones. Drawing on the latest science and her work helping thousands of clients, Dr. Shah explains how to transform your life by changing:

  • What You Eat: Increase your vegetable intake and sip Dr. Shah's hormone-balance tea recipe to tamp down inflammation and heal your gut, without giving up your wine and chocolate!
  • When You Eat: Changing when you eat and practicing intermittent fasting—the right way—will help you feel energized all day long.
  • How you manage stress: Simple, stress-busting exercises and herbs like Ashwagandha and Amla berry help calm the Adrenal system and ease anxiety.
  • In just two weeks, you'll feel your energy surge. In three months, you'll feel like a whole new person. It's time to regain the energy you've lost, so you can get back to the life you want to live.

        In this sympathetic account, author Shah, an internal-medicine and allergy/immunology physician, identifies hormonal imbalance as the reason women often feel like they're running on empty. Using personal examples and case studies, she identifies the main culprit (adrenal fatigue) and considers food choices that exacerbate the condition. She cites additional concerns: chronic inflammation that can exhaust the immune system, and intestinal irregularities that sap energy reserves. Many of the symptoms for these conditions overlap, as do her solutions: dietary changes. Many recommendations will sound familiar, like adding fiber, monitoring dairy, eliminating sugar, and avoiding processed foods. Shah also reviews current theories on circadian rhythms and intermittent fasting (she's a fan). What makes all this advice palatable is Shah's charming storytelling style and considerable, user-friendly support: fasting schedules, innovative ways of getting outdoors and getting some exercise, grocery and pantry-stocking lists, and almost 50 recipes, accompanied by the specific ways they'll help improve energy. Her final thoughts consider the brain/body connection. Readers ready and willing to commit to change will appreciate this comprehensive, reassuring advice.
