Episode 446: Nutrient Deficiencies Caused by Stress

This week, Stacy and Sarah break down nutrient deficiencies caused by stress and its effects on the body. They go through the most common nutrient deficiencies in adults and offer helpful insight into what you can do to help. You can find the full show notes with links to the products and articles discussed on this episode here. This show is a direct follow-up to last week, where Stacy and Sarah talked about supplementing while on AIP and the philosophies that couple different strategies together. In that episode, Sarah mentioned certain nutrients, such as Magnesium and Vitamin C, which depleted during times of chronic stress. Studies have shown that supplementing with Vitamin C can support a healthy stress response, which in turn can help improve sleep, regulate appetite, improve immune function, lower cardiovascular disease risk, improve depressive and anxiety symptoms, and even reduce migraine headaches! Nearly half of Americans aren’t getting enough daily! Plus, infection, inflammation, and stress all increase our vitamin C needs.
