We’ve normalised dysfunction…
Your 30s aren’t supposed to feel like burnout.
Yet most people are walking around with symptoms they’ve been told are “just aging.”
They’re not...
Here are 7 signs your body is off (and where to start)👇
1️⃣ Cold hands and feet all day 🥶
This isn’t just “poor circulation.”
It’s often a low T3 thyroid issue.
Iron and selenium are required for T4, T3 conversion. Without them, your metabolism slows.
Run a full panel: TSH, Free T3, Free T4, antibodies, reverse T3, not TSH alone 🩸
2️⃣ Constant lower back pain 😒
Not always structural… often neurological.
Chronic stress keeps your body in fight-or-flight, tightening muscles and locking in pain patterns.
Fix the inputs like better breathing, better posture, better environment.
Try diaphragmatic breathing, lacrosse ball release work, and magnesium on tight areas.
3️⃣ Waking up in the night to p*e 🚽
This is rarely random.
Think circadian rhythm disruption, cortisol spikes, or mineral imbalance.
You need more potassium, less artificial light at night, use blue light blockers or warm lighting.
4️⃣ Only pooping every 2 days 💩
That’s not “normal”.
1–2 bowel movements per day is a better sign of healthy digestion.
If not, waste is sitting in your system too long.
Raw carrot salad, daily movement, magnesium citrate, kiwi or prune juice can get things moving.
5️⃣ Low s*x drive 👎
Low libido isn’t low interest… it’s low energy.
Your body won’t prioritise reproduction when it’s stressed or under-fuelled.
Support hormones with Zinc-rich foods (oysters, beef liver), enough saturated fat, deep sleep.
6️⃣ Waking up tired 😴
You didn’t just “sleep badly.”
Your circadian rhythm is off.
And that drains you more than most workouts.
Fix the basics like sleeping before 10PM, reduce blue light at night, get morning sunlight daily.
7️⃣ “Your blood work is normal” 🩸
Normal isn't optimal.
It just means you fall within population averages.
That’s not the same as thriving.
Start looking at functional ranges, not just lab ranges.
Your body isn’t breaking down…
It’s responding to what you’re giving it.
