FitFizz is a recipe for optimizing your life with the end goal of having delicious energy to spare. Kelly speaks about ditching the gimmicks, finding strength in your struggles, and celebrating victory all along the way.

In this episode Kelly shares the first part of her story surrounding autoimmune disease and how it all happened to her. Kelly is grateful for all that she has learned, and how she can now share it to help people understand the issues around autoimmune diseases. Listen to learn about the red flags that popped up during her story, and how they were hidden clues to her autoimmune issues.

Kelly discusses:

The migraines that led her to seek help

Being diagnosed with hypothyroid

The stress and anxiety issues that may have contributed to her symptoms

How she was medically gaslighted

Having chronic exhaustion

Being diagnosed with Idiopathic hypersomnia

Brain Fog

Hypersomnia and stimulant tolerances

The discovery of Hashimoto's thyroiditis and how it perfectly described her symptoms

How slowly autoimmune diseases can infiltrate your life

Today is the continuation of my autoimmune disease story. I gave you part one in Episode 7. Today I'm explaining what it was like when I was at the worst of it. There was a long list of food sensitivities, pain, brain fog, and a scary overall feeling of disorientation for many months. I wasn't able to eat most foods without getting sick.

There were no good days for a period of about 8 months. This was essentially all due to massive stress and emotional trauma that went overboard. Most of it could have been prevented if I had known then what I know now. I want you to know what the red flags and learn from my mistakes. For me, autoimmune disease came in the form of Hashimoto's Thyroiditis, but many autoimmune diseases have very similar symptoms (leaky gut, adrenal fatigue, exhaustion, physical pain, hair loss, etc) that are preventable and reversible to a certain extent.

Please share this with a friend if you think they can get some value from it. Those Type A friends who never slow down and are constantly frazzled — this might be a good wake up call for them. I hope you enjoy today's show!

FitFizz | Energy, Mindset, Health - 88: How To Outsmart Fitness and Weight Loss Gimmicks

06/23/22 • 39 min

Are you ready for some cold, hard facts on fitness and weight loss gimmicks? I don't want you to waste your money on things that don't work. Buckle up for my harsh truths on why things like 30-day squat challenges don't work, red flags on supplement labels, foods and supplements that are not doing what influencers say they do, and how to outsmart all of it by knowing what these things are really all about.

From waist trainers, to juicing, to fat burners, to metabolism resets, to detoxes and cleanses, and one particular MLM that is selling lies — find out why these are all not worth your time or money.

I'm hyper-critical about supplements. One brand I trust and use daily is DotFit. You can get 20% off your entire order by using my link: bit.ly/fitfizzsupplements

FitFizz | Energy, Mindset, Health - 89. Creatine: Myths, Benefits, and Why You Need It
play

10/04/23 • 31 min

Creatine is a supplement that every single person out there can benefit from. No matter your age, size, health status, or activity level.

Let's address every common concern and question that most people have about creatine. I'm going to give you all of the information to ease your mind and hopefully, you'll become a lifelong fan of this beneficial supplement. I'm not even selling it. So don't worry there's no sales pitch at the end. I truly just want you to do whatever you can to optimize your health for overall strength and longevity.

In this episode: • Creatine monohydrate vs. creatine HCL • Does creatine cause bloating or weight gain? • Does creatine cause hair loss? • Does creatine cause muscle cramps? • Creatine and bipolar disorder • Creatine and non-athletic lifestyle benefits • Creatine and athletic benefits • Dosing recommendations • Is creatine loading necessary?

PubMed Links: Creatine supplementation and cognitive performance in elderly individuals https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17828627/

Creatine supplementation for older adults: Focus on sarcopenia, osteoporosis, frailty, and Cachexia: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35688360/

Creatine in T Cell Antitumor Immunity and Cancer Immunotherapy: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34067957/

Creatine electrolyte supplement improves anaerobic power and strength: a randomized double-blind control study: https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1186/s12970-019-0291-x

Creatine Supplementation in Women’s Health: A Lifespan Perspective: https://www.mdpi.com/2072-6643/13/3/877

To sum it all up, creatine is safe, effective, and everyone should strongly consider using it throughout any stage of life. It aids in brain health, athletic performance, muscle health, bone health, sleep quality, and mood. And these are facts that have been proven over and over by legitimate scientific studies.

Don't get hung up on the brand. Just look for a label that says creatine monohydrate. I highly recommend this product not just for performance but also for longevity, optimizing aging, and protecting health through the lifecycle.

If you enjoyed this, share it on social media, tag FitFizz and let me know your favorite part. Send it your loved ones and get them on some creatine!

Thank you so much for listening! I'm Kelly Wilson, your health concierge, and until next time, breathe, stay strong, and always celebrate victory!

If you feel extra stress from these last few weeks of the year due to shopping, crowds, social gatherings, late nights, huge meals, traveling, having house guests or having to plan parties — that stress isn't just your body and mind feeling frazzled — it goes much deeper than that. The truth is, that feeling is your hormones screaming out for help. They're aware that you're in some state of "crisis mode". So when the stress has been prolonged to several days or weeks, and it's affecting your mood... again, that's hormones. Stress goes up, cortisol goes up and the rest of your hormones are sensing something is off. A chain reaction is set off to your other hormones like insulin, melatonin, adrenaline, serotonin, and vitamin D, and all of these things can make your energy plummet if you're not proactively trying to prevent it.

Other highlights in this episode: · how hunger hormones play a role in stress · the importance of B-12, folate, and magnesium · using magnesium as a supplement · how protein can stabilize your mood · why using sugar for energy isn't the best idea · adrenal-supporting tea · setting boundaries · self-kindness and inflammation · how to choose between sleep and gym time if you can only choose one

Rest, boundaries and nutrients can be your superpowers for any time that life gets extra busy.

Please note that this is the last episode of 2019! I'll be back on New Year's day with a brand new episode. I've been working on lining up a variety of interesting guests that I'll be interviewing on the show in early 2020.
