Ever wondered how a seemingly complex process in your body could impact everything from your energy levels to hormone balance? In this episode of The Breast Cancer Recovery Coach, Laura Lummer breaks down the importance of methylation for breast cancer survivors. Laura, a two-time breast cancer survivor herself, uses her expertise as a Certified Life, Health, and Nutrition Coach to explain this vital process in simple terms.
Methylation might sound like a science lesson, but Laura makes it accessible by comparing it to adding tags to your DNA that act like on and off switches. These switches control energy production, DNA repair, hormone processing, and detoxification – all crucial for anyone on a healing journey after breast cancer. Laura shares actionable steps to support methylation, like incorporating specific nutrients into your diet.
Folate from leafy greens, B12 from animal products, and choline from egg yolks are just a few examples. She also emphasises the importance of managing stress through simple practices like deep breathing and gentle yoga. Detoxifying your environment by using natural cleaning products and avoiding processed foods can also make a significant difference. Laura's practical tips and relatable analogies make this episode a must-listen for breast cancer survivors looking to support their body's natural processes.
By understanding and supporting methylation, you can improve your overall health and reduce the risk of recurrence. So, why not give it a listen and learn how to take small, meaningful steps towards better health?
