Many people overlook how much stress impacts your body’s functioning. Not finding a place of peace or a way to manage your stress levels can lead to acne, weight gain, bad digestion and difficulty sleeping. You can eat whole and natural, and exercise often, but if cortisol is constantly being released in your body, your body won’t be able to operate in a healthy way.

Eliminating Processed foods from your daily intake could also make a big difference in how you feel. Energy Bars and chips and candy are filled with chemicals and preservatives that our bodies truly weren’t meant to digest. When our digestive system is slowed down, so is the rest of our bodies. These foods are never fully broken down nor are all of their components fully used for energy. Consider only eating nutrient-rich foods that give your body usable energy and you’ll feel a noticeable difference.
