1/4 of the way down the list and its only 8 am ๐ฅณ
We need to talk about something most people completely overlook. ๐ ๐ ๐ฅฑ ๐ด โฃ
โฃ
You can eat perfectly. Take every product. Hit your water. Move your body.โฃ
โฃ
And still stall. Still feel puffy. Still wake up hungry and foggy.โฃ
โฃ
If your sleep is off everything else is fighting an uphill battle.โฃ
โฃ
Hereโs why ๐โฃ

It is deeply regulated by sleep. And cortisol is the bridge between the two.โฃ
โฃ
When you donโt sleep well, cortisol goes up. Research confirms that elevated cortisol directly reduces GLP-1 production meaning your body makes LESS of the very hormone we are working so hard to support. ๐ณโฃ
โฃ
That is not a willpower issue. That is physiology.โฃ

๐ค Reduces GLP-1 effectiveness the next dayโฃ
๐ค Increases insulin resistanceโฆ even one week of short sleep can reduce insulin sensitivity significantlyโฃ
๐ค Spikes inflammation and stress hormonesโฃ
๐ค Increases hunger and cravings, especially for carbs and sugarโฃ
๐ค Makes your hunger cues completely unreliableโฃ
โฃ
๐ช๐ต๐ฎ๐ ๐ด๐ผ๐ผ๐ฑ ๐๐น๐ฒ๐ฒ๐ฝ ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐๐๐ฎ๐น๐น๐ ๐ฑ๐ผ๐ฒ๐:โฃ
Deep sleep is when your body does its most important work ๐โฃ
๐ง Repairs the brain-gut connectionโฃ
๐ฅ Turns down chronic inflammationโฃ
โ๏ธ Resets metabolic hormones including GLP-1โฃ
๐ Restores appetite signals so hunger cues actually make sense againโฃ
โฃ
This is why progress stalls when sleep is inconsistent even when nutrition is perfect. Your body cannot reset what it never gets the chance to repair.โฃ
โฃ

It is not a random rule. It is a hormonal strategy. ๐โฃ
In this challenge, sleep is not optional. It is part of the protocol.โฃ
โฃ
Your body heals while you rest. Your GLP-1 resets while you rest. Your hunger hormones recalibrate while you rest.โฃ
โฃ
Let it do its job. ๐โฃ
โฃ
How has your sleep been this week? Drop it in the comments and tell us, what is your biggest challenge when it comes to getting to bed on time? ๐
Come watch my unboxing!!!!!
So So excited to get my GLP-1 products today๐ฑ๐๐ฅณ๐คฉ

PLEASE READ THIS IF YOU HAVE OR KNOW ANYONE WITH ADD, ADHD OR AUTISM!!
The more I learn, the more I love what we have to offer. ๐๐ผ๐๐ป
If you or your child have ADD/ADHD thereโs a good chance you have the MTHFR gene mutation.
What is MTHFR? What does that even mean? What does it have to do with ADD/ADHD?๐ค
MTHFR also known as methylene tetrahydrofolate reductase is an enzyme in your body that is responsible for converting folate in your diet, into activated folate that your body needs to be able to perform many important tasks.
๐When you have mthfr gene mutations you can easily end up with ADD (attention deficit disorder) or ADHD (Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder), this is because mthfr gene mutations reduce your ability to convert folate into activated folate and the consequences are massive when it comes to mental health problems, bad behavior, poor concentration and learning difficulties.๐
MTHFR gene mutation = Reduced ability to properly convert and use folate from your diet or nutritional supplements leads to folate deficiency.๐ฆ
๐Folate deficiency:
*Underdevelopment of the brain and nerves during pregnancy
*Reduced ability to support brain and nerve function
*Reduced ability to use amino acids responsible for neurotransmitter production
๐Folate deficiency symptoms as they relate to ADHD:
*Anxiety
*Depression
*Poor memory
*Second level of MTHFR ADHD problem
โ๏ธNow, this is where Xfactor+ ad Xfactor Kids come in. Both have fully methylated folate in the form of 5-MTHF. So itโs the most bioavailable, readily absorbed form of folate. The ONLY form of folate these folks can use.
โ๏ธThe second part of the mthfr and ADHD problem is related to the B complex of vitamins that needs folate to work and how they contribute to causing ADHD. The following deficiency symptoms of b complex vitamins as they relate to ADHDโฆ
*Vitamin B1 โ Brain function & make use of protein (amino acids). Deficiency symptoms include Irritability, poor concentration, poor memory
*Vitaminn B3 โ Brain function. Deficiency symptoms include insomnia, poor memory, anxiety, depression, irritability
*Vitamin B5 โ Essential for brain and nerves. Deficiency symptoms include poor concentration, anxiety
*Vitamin B6 โ Essential for the utilization of protein (amino acids), brain function, natural antidepressant. Deficiency symptoms include depression, nervousness, irritability
*Vitamin B12 โ Irritability, anxiety
You can easily see how all of the B complex vitamins canโt work properly in the presence of mthfr gene defects and how they all relate to mental health symptoms.๐ค
โ๏ธAgain, this is where Xfactor+ and Xfactor Kids come in.
Xfactor+ and Xfactor Kids have all the forms of vitamin B which could be lacking without it. ๐ Xfactor+ is made with Aloe so it increases the absorption of these vitamins by up to 300%. ๐ค
โ๏ธPlus, the Xfactor kids has incredibly beneficial probiotics to support your childโs whole body including their gut health.

Starting a challenge with a purple drink
Eating protein first at every meal
Goal to drink 96oz of water.
Making myself move everyday
No snacking between meals.
My big cup holds 48 oz. Drink 2 i got my water in.
Adding protein powder to my coffee as my creamer with half and half no extra sugar
More protein and fiber keep me feeling full longer.
The protein engages your GLP-1 hormone to turn on first to burn fat, instead of the insulin hormone turning on first with carbs to store your fat.
So much more education coming!!
A little bit each day
What some information you would like shared about the GLP-1 hormone?
