If you are still tired after doing everything your doctor told you to do... maybe even got your thyroid levels to "normal", but you don't feel normal, then read on...

.... because I'm about to share how I went from feeling extreme fatigue, barely getting through the day without feeling like I needed to collapse to finally getting my life back!

Brain fog and fatigue are gone. 

My brain works faster... I can think... I can function. 

After years of feeling like garbage, I learned how I could help my body feel so much better. I was over the moon when I finally figured this out... I remember thinking "is this what normal people feel like all the time?"

I feel like a normal human again and I want to share with you what I did to get here. 

I'm not even kidding when I say that I tried everything and nothing worked... I was at a breaking point. I felt like everyday was a battle to survive.

Then I started doing something completely different from what I had been told to do...

I started working on creating an environment in my gut that would allow the probiotics that live there to thrive and actually digest the food I was eating...

Here's why this was the golden key:

Probiotics are what take food energy and turn it into energy that your body can use... 

Weak probiotics =  low hormone production, low energy, and so you feel like garbage.

Strong probiotics = good hormone production, high energy, and so you feel amazing.

... and what determines if the probiotics in your gut are strong or weak? It's not about taking probiotics... it's about the environment in your gut...

The most common reason we see why people struggle to produce thyroid hormones is because they avoid the foods the thyroid needs most to make hormones...

Often times, people are told to cut out foods like gluten, dairy and sugar...

Here's the biggest problem with following this type of advice...

Things like dairy, sugar or gluten, are not the problem... the real problem is poor digestion...

How many people do you know who eat gluten all the time and are just fine?

It's because they have good digestion... and good digestion is key for thyroid hormone production because your body needs to be able to break down (digest) protein into amino acids to make hormones...

Think about it... the "T" in thyroid hormone T4 stands for Tyrosine, which is an amino acid. If you can't digest protein, then your body won't be able to get enough Tyrosine to make thyroid hormones...

The same happens with other hormones, which is why it's common for people with low thyroid hormone to be low in other hormones like melatonin (the sleeping hormone), serotonin and dopamine (the feel-good happy hormones), etc...

Once you see that, it starts making more sense why low thyroid function is often associated with poor sleep, anxiety and depression... or mood swings and feeling miserable to a point where you don't recognize your body...

Cutting out gluten, helps inflammation, but it doesn't help protein digestion so it doesn't help you get Tyrosine for thyroid hormone production... so while you may reduce inflammation, you end up feeling exhausted long term...

That's why improving your digestion will help you improve thyroid function more so than cutting out entire food groups...

Doctors hardly ever talk about this... 

Your choices then become: take a pill or feel miserable...

You don't know any better, so you go with the former. You might feel good for a week or so, but eventually you end up back to where you started... or worse... feeling like complete and utter crap all the time...

Maybe your labs say you feel fine, but you know you don't feel fine and no doctor seems to listen to you... you are now at the end of your rope looking for an alternative...

Good news!

Getting more energy has less to do with your thyroid and more to do with the environment in your gut... your digestion...

Without good digestion your body literally can’t extract or create the energy you need to function...

Back in 2012, I was tired all the time... 

I'm talking extreme fatigue to the point where I was falling asleep sitting up at my desk at work...

My mind was foggy... and everything I ate seemed to turn to fat immediately...

I had a laundry list of weird symptoms nobody could explain... and no matter what I tried, nothing seemed to get better.

I could not keep functioning like that. I was exhausted - both literally and emotionally. It was starting to affect my work and personal life. So, I did what most people do.

I went the traditional route: doctor visits, prescriptions, pep talks about getting more sleep and managing stress.

But even with the pills, the exhaustion never lifted, and I just kept gaining weight.

So, I turned to alternative medicine like naturopaths and functional medicine.

I spent thousands of dollars on lab tests, stocked my cabinets with every supplement under the sun, and yes, I followed restrictive diets that cut out gluten, dairy, sugar... you name it.

Can you imagine? After all of that... all the effort, all the money, all the hope... I was still tired. Still bloated. Still dragging myself through every single day.

I felt completely defeated.

But there was one symptom that wouldn’t leave me alone:
gas and bloating after eating just about anything.

When I started researching what was causing that, I stumbled across a word that stopped me cold: Candida. A wild yeast that, when overgrown, wreaks havoc inside your gut... causing gas, bloating, and fatigue. 

Candida. The name rang a bell. Not from a doctor's office... but from my past life... when I was brewing beer.

In brewing, yeast candida is the thing you fear.

It’s a wild contaminant... a sign that your brew has gone toxic.

If candida showed up, it meant your brewing environment was toxic. Spoiled. Rotten. No longer able to produce good beer.

That’s when it hit me... my “ah-ha” moment.

I looked down at my gut and thought: 

“Ewww... it’s like a spoiled batch of beer.”

All this time, I had been trying to fix my gut symptoms from the outside... with diets, supplements, pills and protocols... but the real problem wasn’t what I was putting in.

The real problem was the environment inside my gut.

It was toxic.

Out of balance.

Rotten at the environment level, just like a spoiled brew.

That’s why my digestion wasn't working.

From that moment on, I stopped obsessing over what to eat, what to cut out, or what supplement to take.

Instead, I focused on rebuilding the environment inside my gut the same way I would create an environment when brewing beer... because the right environment is the foundation healthy probiotics need to thrive... and they are the ones in charge of digestion...

It was crazy to think that I could take principles I had learned from the brewing process and apply it to my body to grow healthy probiotics and improve my digestion... but at this point, I had nothing to lose. I couldn't walk up a flight of stairs without nearly dying...

I rolled up my sleeves and got to work... And as my gut environment healed, something amazing happened:

My digestion improved, my energy came back, and I was able to get into the best shape of my life!

And that’s when I realized the simple truth:

If probiotics are what digest food to create energy... and their survival depends on the environment inside your gut... how else can you expect to get more energy unless you fix the environment first?

This isn’t about fixing your gut.

It’s about rebuilding the natural ecosystem your body was designed to run on.

And when you do that?

You feel like yourself again... stronger, clearer, and truly alive.

• 60% of people with thyroid issues still experience chronic fatigue, brain fog, and digestive problems even after medication (source)
• 70–80% of your immune system... and a huge part of your energy regulation... lives in your gut microbiome (source)
  
• Over 90% of people with chronic fatigue show signs of gut dysbiosis (source)

In other words:
The energy you're craving doesn't start with a pill, a diet or a protocol...

If the problem is broken digestion, then the solution starts with the microscopic ecosystem inside your body that no one else is teaching you how to rebuild.

Now, I have to show you some proof because I had been burned so many times, I was skeptical of everything and wasn't sure if others would be open to this new concept... but I started sharing my story with others to see if they would experience the same...

We’ve now helped dozens of women who thought they were “doing everything right” find lasting energy by focusing on rebuilding their gut environment... not chasing more pills, diets, or doctors.

From exhausted to energized.

From surviving to thriving.

And none of it required starving, restricting, or living at the pharmacy.

Improving your digestion starts with something almost nobody talks about: the quality of your water.

People often tell me "Really, just water? I'm already drinking tons of water"... and my question back is "great, but is your body absorbing the water?"

... because if your drinking water doesn't have minerals chances are you're going to the bathroom frequently peeing most of the water you drink right out... 

When I was brewing beer, I learned something most people... even health experts... completely overlook when it comes to growing healthy probiotics:

In order to grow healthy probiotics when brewing I needed to make sure my water was clean and I needed to have key minerals... without those two things in place, the probiotics couldn't break down starch into sugar (digest)... and the brew would be more likely to spoil, and everything would fail.

This was such a simple concept, I couldn't believe I hadn't thought of doing this before. If I was so adamant about ensuring my brewing water was clean and mineralized, why wouldn't I be adamant about my drinking water being the same?

Growing healthy probiotics when brewing beer wasn’t about adding more probiotics.

It wasn’t about tweaking the grains.

It was all about the environment. And it started by using clean mineral-rich water first.

Your gut works the same way! 

Because the probiotics we use to brew beer, make wine, brew kombucha, make yogurt, sauerkraut, sourdough, kimchi, etc., are all the same probiotics that live in your gut!

Probiotics are what give you energy!

That's why when you start hydrating your body with mineral-rich, clean water, you begin to feel a boost of energy because you are rebuilding the environment your gut needs to:

Here’s how to get started:

I began adding ionic magnesium and a highly mineralized salt called SOLE salt to my water every day to improve my hydration.

Within days, my digestion started improving.

Within weeks, my energy started returning.

It was so simple, but few people look at hydration as the place to start because it's not as fancy as some iodine + selenium + Ashwagandha herbal thyroid supplement... 

Fair question.

And honestly?

I asked myself the same thing.

There’s a huge gap between me... a guy who used to brew beer... and a doctor who spent years in medical school.

Beer brewers aren't exactly the poster children for health.

Doctors are supposed to be the experts who know how to fix the human body.

But here’s the thing no one talks about:
Doctors are trained to treat symptoms... not to create healthy environments inside the body.

They focus on prescriptions. On band-aids. On chasing numbers on a lab test. Heck, they won't even treat you unless your numbers are really bad... never mind how you feel.

Because they aren’t trained to think like nature...

On the other hand, when you brew beer, everything depends on one thing: The environment you create determines the health of what grows inside it.

If the environment is clean, strong, and balanced... your brew thrives because probiotics thrive.

If it’s toxic, contaminated, or ignored... your brew rots from the inside out because you then grow things like yeast candida and other "bad bacteria."

And the same is true for your gut...

It doesn’t matter how many supplements you take, how clean you eat, or how many hours you sleep. In fact, most supplements, pills and diets you are told to follow, like cutting out gluten, actually make your gut more toxic...

If your gut environment is toxic, you will grow bad bacteria that creates so much inflammation, it’s like rust coating a power cable blocking the flow of energy your body was designed to have. You end up with fatigue, fog and unable to recover for days after exercise.

But when your gut environment is healthy, that rust disappears and energy flows naturally, cleanly, and fully, just like it’s supposed to. You get your energy back and feel like yourself again.

Maybe you're thinking,

"I've already tried lifestyle changes."

"I already know about gut health."

"I've already tried fixing my digestion."

"I'm already taking vitamin D, probiotics, or eating healthy... and I'm still tired."

I totally get it.

And you’re absolutely right to be skeptical.

You’ve already invested your time, your hope, and your energy trying to do the right things.

Here’s where most people (including health professionals) get it wrong: 

The lifestyle changes most people follow are completely wrong!

You are often told to eat iodine-rich foods or take thyroid support supplements which include iodine, iron, selenium, Ashwagandha and other herbs... 

... but here's the truth few people are talking about... 

#1 The National Institute of Health says that iodine deficiency is extremely rare in the United States.

Which is crazy because so many people think hypothyroidism is an iodine deficiency and it's very common to hear that you need iodine-rich foods and iodine supplements...

#2 ... what's even crazier is that the NIH also states that hypothyroidism can be caused by too much iodine in the diet!

Which is why so many people feel worse after increasing iodine intake... 

... and don't get me started with thyroid supplements... for one, they use isolated forms of nutrients, which means the body can't easily absorb them... especially if you have poor digestion...

Second... think about this... what are the most common ingredients in thyroid supplements?

- Iodine

- Selenium

- Iron

- Copper

- Zinc

- Vitamin A

- Vitamin D

- B Vitamins (biotin, folate, riboflavin)

Many people spend $200-$300 a month on a supplement stack to get all these nutrients... which is stupid when you realize that all these nutrients are found in egg yolks... 

... and egg yolks have these nutrients in a bioavailable form that's easier for the body to digest...

If inflammation is a problem when eating eggs, know this:

Cutting out gluten, dairy or sugar doesn't help improve digestion... it may help with inflammation, but cutting out food groups isn't how you fix inflammation...

The real solution is to fix inflammation and nutrient deficiencies is to improve digestion...

Most people are stuck in a cycle of "I want to know what's wrong with my body"

So, they get a lab to find a nutrient deficiency and supplement to address it...

The problem with that is that nutrients don't work in isolation... low iron is a common one. Taking iron supplements creates imbalances because your body needs other nutrients to process iron. When you take an iron supplement you start using up and depleting your body from minerals like zinc, copper and B vitamins... 

In other words, every time you supplement one nutrient, you create an imbalance with others... before you know it, you start finding you need to supplement selenium, iron, zinc, magnesium, calcium, manganese, etc.

Meanwhile this weakens your probiotics, which weakens digestion and brings back inflammation...

That's why if you want to get energy the natural way you have to stick to things that are natural...

No synthetic pills.

No artificial megadoses.

No patch jobs.

Just real food.

Real energy.

Real healing.

Because when you create the right environment inside your body... Your body does what it was always designed to do: digest food and heal itself.

So what’s it going to be?

Keep patching symptoms with synthetic quick fixes that barely move the needle...

or

Step into a completely natural, connected approach that rebuilds your energy for good?

The choice is yours.

And we’re here to show you the way.

You now know that the environment in your gut is everything when it comes to getting your energy back.

Fix your digestion... fix the energy problems that have been stealing your life away.

If you’ve been working hard... trying pills, restrictive diets, useless protocols... and still feeling exhausted, you should feel relief.

You’re not failing because you didn’t try hard enough.

You were simply misled with the wrong information.

When I was brewing beer, I had to create the perfect environment for probiotics to thrive... and it all came down to just five core elements.

(Think of it like caring for the root system of a tree... where all real growth begins.)

Here’s the big picture:

I’ve seen people improve their digestion just by improving their water and mineral intake and they start to see energy levels rise.

Add in fermented cod liver oil, and now you’re starting to improve pH and body temperature too... no more cold hands and feet, no more feeling frozen from the inside out.

Now, I get it.

Maybe this sounds weird... to bring in nourishing traditions like fermented foods and beverages into your diet... especially when most of us were never taught to think about our health this way.

But if you've read this far, you now know the truth:

The environment inside your gut is the foundation for real, lasting energy.

This isn’t about doing more. 

It’s about doing the right things... the natural way...

No pill or diet will fix the environment in your gut... you must turn to nature and step out of the traditional health system. 

Restrictive diets, pills and supplements are not natural. 

We don't use supplements... we work on hydration, minerals, pH and body temperature using natural nourishing traditions. 

If natural remedies appeal to you, and you are still tracking with me, then you might be wondering:

Because here’s the reality: growing probiotics is no different than keeping a houseplant alive... and sadly many people can't do that.

Energy comes from probiotics... and probiotics can only thrive when the environment inside you supports them.

Every piece matters: 

- The right amount of water

- Minerals in the soil (your gut)

- pH of the soil (your gut)

- Temperature

Ignore one, and you leave yourself open to growing the wrong things... like candida and other nasty critters you definitely don’t want.

When you get the environment right:

Most people try to fix their gut from the outside... throwing supplements, restrictive diets, and expensive protocols at the problem.

But if the foundation... your internal environment... is still dry, depleted, or toxic, none of it sticks.

It’s like trying to grow a garden by buying fancier seeds, while the soil is still dead.

If you skip this simple step and keep trying to “fix” your energy externally, you’ll stay stuck in the same frustrating cycle:

Here’s something most people never stop to consider:

In the traditional healthcare system, a healed patient is a lost customer.

Doctors aren’t bad people.

But the system they work inside... insurance, pharmaceutical companies, clinical protocols... isn’t designed to empower you to heal yourself.

It’s designed to keep you dependent.

One prescription.
One supplement.
One more appointment at a time.

Because if you heal... really heal... you don’t need them anymore.

I'm not a doctor.

I'm a beer brewer who learned firsthand how to create an environment for probiotics to grow because they were the ones that would digest barley grain into sugar and ultimately beer...

I'm not here to sell you supplements or probiotics... if anything, I'm here to get you off supplements... and show you how you can help the probiotics in your gut thrive by providing them with the right environment so they can digest food and give you energy...

I’m not looking for patients... and definitely don't have expensive lab tests for you...

Hormone-gut issues are often oversimplified and then you are blamed for not following a strict diet that's a new kind of perfectionism...

Your microbiome is unique so the only one who can do this for you is you... you need to learn to trust in your intuition and we help you do just that!

Because once you understand how to create the right environment inside your gut, you don’t need another protocol, another pill, or another expensive test.

You just need your body, your instincts... and a little bit of the right guidance...

And that’s exactly what we’re about to give you...

Here’s the real choice in front of you: stay stuck in a system built on dependence... or step into a new approach built on your own power to heal.

You already have everything you need inside you.

You just need the right environment... and the right guide... to bring it back to life.

This is what your body was designed for.

You just need the right blueprint to rebuild it.

If you’re an active mom finally ready to experience natural energy that lasts all day... not just random good days, but real, reliable, natural energy... then I’m here and ready to show you exactly how to do it.
