    E: 350 The 5 Root Causes Behind Nearly Every Chronic Health Problem (And Where to Start)

    Got a question? Send Audrey a Text and she will answer in an episode. Today's episode is one that I've been meaning to do for a long time, and it might be one of the most important episodes I've recorded. We're talking about the five root causes behind nearly every chronic health problem I see in my practice. Here's the thing that keeps coming up over and over in my practice. I will see 15 women in a single week. Pick any random 3: One has high blood pressure. One has PCOS. One has arthritis. Three completely different diagnoses, three completely different treatment plans from their conventional providers, often three completely different specialists. And when I sit down with each of them and we start looking upstream at what is actually driving what's happening in their body, they often have the same five imbalances. Sometimes four of the same five. Sometimes all five. Different diseases. Same terrain. In this episode, we cover: fatigue, Hashimoto's thyroiditis, cholesterol, psoriasis, migraines, insulin resistance, and anxiety.

    E: 349 Summer Is When Next Winter's Vitamin D Is Built

    Got a question? Send Audrey a Text and she will answer in an episode. What are you doing right now to prepare for January? What would you say? Most of you would tell me about your supplement cabinet. Maybe a vitamin D capsule you remember to take some days and forget on others. Here's the thing. The vitamin D you'll actually have in your body in January was mostly made in June, July, and August. Not from a bottle. From the sun. And if you're not using this window right now, you are already behind before winter even shows up. You've heard me talk before about the relationship between cholesterol and vitamin D, and I want to build on that today because it matters more right now than at any other point in the year.   Support the show Resources DOWNLOAD YOUR METABOLIC SCORECARD --> AudreyChristie.com click "Metabolic Scorecard" button\ Schedule Root Cause Review: https://audreychristie.com/work-with-audrey  Instagram: https://instagram.com/audrey_christie  Disclaimer Audrey is not an MD or a DVM and has never claimed to be.

    E: 348 Why Every Weight-Loss Conversation Should Start With Muscle

    Got a question? Send Audrey a Text and she will answer in an episode. Today we are talking about muscle. And before you click away thinking this is a fitness episode, I want you to stay with me, because what I'm about to tell you reframes everything you've been told about weight loss, metabolism, and what it actually means to be healthy as a woman. This is one of those episodes I've been wanting to do for a while, because I see the consequences of getting this wrong every single week in my practice. So let's get into it.

    E: 347 PCOS Is Not a Hormone Problem — Here's What the Research Actually Says

    Got a question? Send Audrey a Text and she will answer in an episode. If your PCOS protocol isn't working, this episode is for you. Dr. Audrey breaks down the metabolic mechanism behind PCOS — what's actually happening in your body before the hormones ever go haywire — and why treating it as a hormone condition first is why so many women stay stuck. This is the science episode. Pull up a chair.

    E:346 What Actually Changes Outcomes (And What Doesn't)

    Got a question? Send Audrey a Text and she will answer in an episode. Here is something I have observed after more than 20 years working in health and wellness. When people are not getting the results they want they almost always assume the answer is more complexity. A different protocol. A more advanced test. A newer supplement. A better biohack. And I understand that impulse completely. I lived it. When something is not working the brain wants to solve it by adding something. By finding the missing piece that must be out there somewhere more sophisticated than what you are already doing. But in most cases — not all, but most — the missing piece is not more complexity. It is more consistency with the fundamentals that were never fully in place to begin with. We are tackling that today, what is base zero, and the 5 pillars of the foundation, and how they can help.

    E: 345 Why Hormone Solutions Don't Hold for Some People

    Got a question? Send Audrey a Text and she will answer in an episode. Today, we are going into something I see play out in my practice every single week. And I have been wanting to do this episode for a while because I think it needs to be said clearly and without a lot of hedging. We are talking about why hormone solutions don't work for some people. And before I go any further, I want to set the record straight on what this episode is and is not. This is not an anti-hormone therapy episode. This is not an anti-medication episode. I take a yes-and approach to medicine. Conventional tools have their place. Hormone replacement therapy has helped a lot of women. GLP-1 medications have real clinical value in the right context. I am not here to tear any of that down. What I am here to do is talk about the piece that keeps getting skipped. The upstream work. The foundational layer that has to be in place for any of those tools to actually do what they are supposed to do and keep doing it. Because when that layer is missing, I do not care how good the tool is. It will not hold. And I see this pattern constantly. So let's talk about it.

    E: 344 What Your Thyroid Labs Are Actually Reflecting

    Got a question? Send Audrey a Text and she will answer in an episode. Your thyroid labs came back "normal." So why do you still feel terrible? If you have been exhausted, foggy, and frustrated despite doing everything your doctor told you to do — including taking your thyroid medication — this episode is for you. This week, we are breaking down why the thyroid is rarely the root cause of thyroid symptoms, what your labs are actually reflecting, and the upstream drivers that conventional medicine almost never checks. She also shares the story of a client who had been on thyroid medication for 13 years, felt terrible the entire time, and is now completely off her medication and thriving — not because her thyroid was fixed, but because the real root causes were finally addressed. In this episode: Why TSH is a pituitary marker, not a thyroid markerHow metabolic dysfunction silently suppresses thyroid conversionThe role of minerals, gut health, and chronic stress in thyroid functionWhy thyroid medication is often incomplete without upstream supportWhat it actually looks like to address thyroid symptoms at the rootIf you want to understand what your own labs might be reflecting, grab the free Metabolic Scorecard in the show notes.

    E: 343 The Real Reason Your Health Protocol Isn't Working

    Got a question? Send Audrey a Text and she will answer in an episode. You're doing everything right. Clean diet, supplements, movement, stress management. And still — nothing is changing. In this episode, we're breaking down why effort alone isn't the answer, and why most women who feel stuck are not failing — they're solving the wrong piece entirely. We get into why your labs can say "normal" and still be missing the full metabolic picture, which early markers to look at right now, and why environment and timing matter more than most people realize. If you have ever felt like your body is just not responding no matter what you do, this episode is where you start.
