I worked as a producer in Los Angeles before I studied Nutrition. 3️⃣I love skiing ⛷ and am looking forward to our annual ski trip. 4️⃣I have lived in Los Angeles for 15 years.

How are you taking care of yourself right now? Self care is more important than ever before as we are still in the think of this pandemic. Some things that have been helping me include: ✅Daily gratitude. I have a journal and I like to write down what I am grateful for every single morning. ✅Meditation. I do it for at least 10 minutes everyday. ✅FaceTime with Fam & Friends: I truly love seeing their faces, even if it’s the quickest convo. ✅Sunshine: I’am not always by the ocean, but I love getting some fresh sunlight on my body every day. ✅Cooking. Or should I say experimenting with fun recipes and ingredients.

Thinning hair? Or they are dry, frizzy and lifeless? Many women experience changes in the quality & quanitiy of their hair especially through the per-menopausal (35 to 50 years old) and menopausal years (50+ years). Here’s a few things to consider: ✅ I highly recommend getting your reproductive hormones tested. An imbalance in estrogen and progesterone can trigger hair loss or make your hair very dry. ✅ Adaptogens - Chronic stress can negatively influence hair. Taking adaptogenic herbs like Ashwagandha can help with cortisol management and improve hair quality. ✅ Thyroid health - thyroid dysfunction, which is typically connected with high cortisol and insulin is also a major reason for dry, thinning hair. Get your thyroid levels tested. ✅ Red Light Therapy - This is phototherapy that uses specific wavelengths of light and has shown to stimulate ATP production in cells, promote growth of new capillaries and boost production of collagen. ❤️Most importantly, make sure your meals are loaded with high quality protein, good fat and carbohydrates that comes from real food like vegetables and fruit. #umanaralkar #omwithatwist #everythingom https://www.instagram.com/p/CJ6KmaNBOWK/?igshid=mwpnt3djubva
