– Avoid yo-yo dieting
– Stick to a consistent, nutrient-dense diet
High cortisol levels:
– Manage stress with meditation, yoga, or deep breathing
– Try adaptogens like ashwagandha or Rhodiola rosea
– Limit caffeine and take regular breaks
Imbalanced ghrelin:
– Eat meals at regular times
– Include protein in every meal (eggs, chicken, tofu)
– Avoid highly processed foods
Poor sleep:
