How to Fix Hormonal Acne Without Medication

Leave a reply


Struggling with hormonal acne? Learn how thyroid imbalances, gut issues, stress, and inflammation trigger breakouts—and discover natural remedies that work without harsh medication.


Women don’t just get acne.
We get hormonal acne —
the deep, painful, embarrassing kind that sits under the skin and feels like it’s pulsing with betrayal.

It’s NOT because you’re dirty.
It’s NOT because you eat chocolate.
And it’s NOT because you don’t wash your face enough.

Hormonal acne is a symptom — not a flaw.

It’s your body saying:

“Something is off internally.
Please listen.”

Especially if you have:

  • hypothyroidism
  • Hashimoto’s
  • irregular periods
  • PMS
  • gut issues
  • chronic stress
  • blood sugar swings
  • perimenopause

Your skin is not the problem.
Your hormones are.

Let’s talk about it openly, honestly, and without shame.

🔥 The Real Causes of Hormonal Acne

Hormonal acne doesn’t happen randomly.
It comes from internal imbalance — usually 4 major ones.

Let’s break them down:

✨ 1. Low Thyroid Function (YES — Thyroid Causes Acne)

Hypothyroidism slows:

  • detox pathways
  • liver function
  • lymphatic drainage
  • circulation
  • skin turnover
  • hormone clearance

This creates:

  • clogged pores
  • dull skin
  • cystic acne
  • inflammation
  • “jawline acne”

Women with hypothyroidism often get acne even if they never had acne as teens.

✨ 2. High Androgens (Hormones Going Rogue)

If you get acne on:

  • jawline
  • chin
  • cheeks
  • neck
  • upper back

That’s androgen-driven.

Symptoms of high androgens:

  • chin hair
  • irregular periods
  • mood swings
  • thinning hair
  • oily skin
  • cystic acne

Your hormones are yelling for help.

✨ 3. Gut Imbalance (The Silent Acne Trigger)

If your gut is inflamed → your skin is inflamed.

Acne often comes from:

  • low stomach acid
  • candida
  • constipation
  • bloating
  • SIBO
  • leaky gut

Your skin mirrors your digestion.

✨ 4. Blood Sugar Chaos

If you crave sweets before your period?
If you get shaky between meals?
If you crash at 3pm?

Your blood sugar is unstable.

Result:

  • breakouts
  • cystic acne
  • hormonal inflammation

Sugar feeds acne like miracle grow.

🔥 Now Let’s Fix It — Naturally

These are not quick TikTok hacks.
These are REAL hormone-healing tools.

✨ 1. The Hormone-Support Breakfast (Fixes 50% of Acne)

Eat a real breakfast within 1 hour of waking:

Include:

  • protein
  • healthy fat
  • complex carbs

Examples:

  • eggs + avocado + berries
  • protein oats
  • turkey sausage + cooked apples
  • Greek yogurt + fruit + chia

Skipping breakfast destroys women’s hormones.

✨ 2. Seed Cycling for Hormone Balance

Ancient remedy.
Women have used this for centuries.

Days 1–14 (Follicular Phase):

  • 1 tbsp pumpkin seeds
  • 1 tbsp flax seeds

Days 15–28 (Luteal Phase):

  • 1 tbsp sesame seeds
  • 1 tbsp sunflower seeds

Balances:

  • estrogen
  • progesterone
  • acne
  • PMS

Your skin will THANK YOU.

✨ 3. Heal the Gut → Heal the Skin

Start with:

  • apple cider vinegar (before meals)
  • digestive enzymes
  • ginger tea
  • bone broth
  • fermented foods
  • fiber-rich meals

If your gut is backed up —
your skin will handle the overflow.

✨ 4. Fix Your Liver (Your Hormone Filter)

Signs your liver is overloaded:

  • acne
  • migraines
  • PMS
  • bloating
  • irritability
  • tenderness under ribs

Support your liver with:

  • lemon water
  • cooked greens
  • turmeric
  • ginger
  • castor oil packs

Your liver is your real skincare routine.

✨ 5. Magnesium (The Acne-Calming Mineral)

Magnesium:

  • reduces inflammation
  • balances hormones
  • calms the nervous system
  • improves sleep

Use:

  • magnesium glycinate
  • magnesium malate

✨ 6. Zinc (Nature’s Antibiotic)

Zinc:

  • supports thyroid
  • reduces inflammation
  • clears acne
  • heals gut
  • boosts progesterone

Most women are deficient.

✨ 7. Stay AWAY from fragrances

This is the secret one.

Fragrance in:

  • lotions
  • makeup
  • perfume
  • shampoo
  • detergent

Disrupts hormones.
This alone can clear acne for some women.

✨ When to Expect Results

Your skin will start improving when your hormones improve.

Most women see:

  • less inflammation in 3–5 days
  • fewer breakouts in 10–14 days
  • skin clarity in 30–45 days

You’re not stuck.
You’re just imbalanced — and imbalances can be fixed.

5 Natural Remedies for Vaginal Dryness, Odor & Hormonal Imbalance

Leave a reply


Vaginal dryness, odor, itching, or hormonal imbalance are more common than women realize—especially with hypothyroidism, stress, or perimenopause. Here are five natural remedies that actually work.


Women whisper about their symptoms.
Doctors dismiss them.
Google scares them.
And society acts like anything involving a vagina should be either sexy or silent.

But here’s the truth:

Your vagina is not supposed to be dry, irritated, painful, or smelly.
And when it is — your BODY is talking to you.

Not shaming you.
Not betraying you.
TALKING to you.

Especially if you’re struggling with:

  • hypothyroidism
  • Hashimoto’s
  • hormone imbalance
  • perimenopause
  • high stress
  • birth control side effects
  • gut issues
  • poor detox

Your vagina is one of the first places symptoms show up.

So let’s talk about it with honesty, compassion, and real solutions.

🔥 WHY THIS HAPPENS (And Why It’s NOT Your Fault)

Most women who deal with dryness, odor, irritation, or discharge have at least one of these root causes:

✔ Low estrogen

This happens with:

  • thyroid issues
  • perimenopause
  • menopause
  • stress
  • undereating
  • too much cardio
  • birth control

Estrogen = lubrication.

Low estrogen = dryness + burning + painful sex.

✔ Gut imbalance

Your vagina and gut share bacteria.
So if your gut is inflamed → your vagina is too.

This causes:

  • odor
  • discharge
  • yeast infections
  • BV

✔ Hormonal imbalance

If your hormones aren’t communicating right, your vaginal pH goes wild.

✔ Thyroid dysfunction

YES — your thyroid controls:

  • vaginal tissue hydration
  • lubrication
  • elasticity
  • pH balance

Women with hypothyroidism experience dryness even in their 20s and 30s.

✔ Stress

Cortisol kills lubrication.
Fast.

**🔥 5 Natural Remedies That Actually WORK

(And are safe, gentle, and effective)**

✨ 1. The Aloe Vera Hydration Method

Aloe is one of the most powerful, gentle hydration tools for vaginal tissue.

Use:

  • 100% pure aloe gel (no alcohol, no fragrance)

Apply a small amount externally OR use a tiny amount internally with a clean finger.

Benefits:

  • restores moisture
  • reduces burning
  • calms irritation
  • helps pH balance

Women notice results in 2–4 days.

✨ 2. Probiotics — But NOT the Ones You Think

Most women think yogurt or random probiotics fix everything.
But vaginal balance requires specific strains:

Look for:

  • Lactobacillus rhamnosus
  • Lactobacillus reuteri

These strains rebuild vaginal flora.

They help with:

  • BV
  • odor
  • yeast
  • dryness from inflammation

Your gut and vagina are SISTERS.
Heal the gut → the vagina follows.

✨ 3. The Coconut Oil Barrier Trick

Coconut oil is antifungal, antibacterial, and soothing.

Use this:

  • as a lubricant
  • before showering
  • before sex
  • before swimming
  • at night for hydration

Perfect for:

  • dryness
  • inflammation
  • mild odor
  • tissue irritation
  • rubbing/chafing

Don’t use with latex condoms — oil breaks them down.

✨ 4. Castor Oil Warm Compress (YES, FOR REAL)

Castor oil increases:

  • pelvic circulation
  • lymphatic drainage
  • tissue elasticity
  • hormone flow

Instructions:

  1. Warm a tablespoon of castor oil (not hot).
  2. Massage gently across the lower pelvis.
  3. Place a warm towel over the area for 10 minutes.

This can:

  • increase lubrication
  • reduce pelvic tension
  • help hormonal dryness
  • calm vaginal inflammation

Castor oil is a miracle worker.

✨ 5. Fix the ROOT: Support Your Hormones & Thyroid

Read that again.

Dryness, odor, and irritation don’t come from “bad hygiene.”
They come from:

  • low estrogen
  • low thyroid
  • unhealthy gut
  • adrenal burnout
  • liver overload
  • stress

Women with thyroid issues MUST support hormones.

Start with:

  • eating within an hour of waking
  • magnesium glycinate
  • vitamin B6
  • zinc
  • fermented foods
  • fixing sleep
  • cutting caffeine before breakfast
  • liver support (lemons, greens, broth, ginger)
  • hydration

Your vagina is a hormone barometer.

Balance hormones → everything improves.

🔥 WHEN TO SEE A DOCTOR (For Safety)

See a provider if you have:

  • sharp pelvic pain
  • fever
  • post-menopause bleeding
  • foul odor with severe itching
  • pain with urination
  • bleeding after sex
  • persistent pain

Your health matters.
You deserve answers — not judgment.

Your Period Is Trying to Tell You Something

Leave a reply

(Especially If You’re Hypothyroid)
By A.L. Childers


If your period has changed, worsened, become painful, irregular, heavy, or unpredictable, your thyroid may be sending you warnings. Learn the signs, root causes, and how to restore hormonal balance naturally.


Your period is not just a period.

It’s a report card from your body.

Women are raised to believe their period is just an inconvenience.
Something to hide.
Something to push through.
Something to medicate, silence, or shame.

But your menstrual cycle is your fifth vital sign.
Just as important as pulse, temperature, or blood pressure.

And when your thyroid is struggling?
Your period is the first thing to warn you.

Your period is trying to tell you something.

🔥 What Your Period Says About Your Thyroid

Most women don’t realize this, but your thyroid controls:

  • ovulation
  • progesterone production
  • estrogen clearance
  • PMS intensity
  • clotting
  • cramping
  • cycle length
  • breast tenderness
  • mood swings

So when your thyroid slows down… so does EVERYTHING.

Here’s what your period might be saying:

🔥 1. “Your thyroid is low.” — Heavy or Clotty Periods

If your period feels like:

  • flooding
  • clotting
  • changing pads hourly
  • losing large amounts of blood

That’s a classic sign of:
low thyroid + low progesterone + high estrogen.

Your body is not supposed to bleed like that.

🔥 2. “Your ovulation is off.” — Long Cycles (35–60 days)

Hypothyroidism can delay ovulation.
Delayed ovulation = delayed period.

It’s not irregular.
It’s slow.

Just like everything else in hypothyroidism.

🔥 3. “Your stress hormones are too high.” — Short Cycles (21–25 days)

This is adrenal burnout mixed with thyroid dysfunction.

Your body is saying:
“I don’t feel safe to carry a pregnancy, so I’m cycling faster.”

Women with thyroid issues see this constantly.

🔥 4. “Your hormones are imbalanced.” — Missing Periods

Amenorrhea is not just:

  • stress
  • age
  • randomness

It’s often:

  • low thyroid
  • low progesterone
  • high cortisol
  • nutrient deficiencies
  • long-term inflammation

Your body is conserving energy.

🔥 5. “Your liver is overwhelmed.” — Bad PMS

Your liver clears used hormones.
If it’s slacking?

You will feel EVERYTHING:

  • rage
  • crying spells
  • breast pain
  • water retention
  • bloating
  • insomnia
  • migraines
  • cravings

Sound familiar?

🔥 6. “Your body needs support.” — Extreme Fatigue Before or During Period

Women with thyroid issues crash HARD the week before their cycle.

Your body is doing double work:

  • hormonal shifts
  • low thyroid function

This leaves you tired, foggy, and heavy.

🔥 So How Do You Support Your Period (and Thyroid)?

Here are the 6 proven steps that work FAST:

✨ 1. Eat More REAL Carbs

Your hormones NEED:

  • sweet potatoes
  • berries
  • apples
  • carrots
  • oatmeal
  • lentils

Low-carb diets RUIN women’s hormones.

✨ 2. Fix Your Magnesium Levels

If your period is painful → you’re magnesium deficient.

Try:

  • magnesium glycinate
  • magnesium spray
  • Epsom salt baths

✨ 3. Support Liver Detox

Your liver clears estrogen.

Do this:

  • lemon water
  • fermented foods
  • reduce dairy
  • eat cruciferous veggies (COOKED)
  • drink more water

✨ 4. Increase Progesterone Naturally

Progesterone is the calm, soothing, stabilizing hormone.

Boost it with:

  • vitamin B6
  • zinc
  • healthy fats
  • lowering cortisol
  • eating before caffeine

✨ 5. Reduce Stress (your hormones FEEL everything)

Try:

  • walking after meals
  • grounding
  • deep breathing
  • journaling
  • choosing peace on purpose

✨ 6. Fix Your Thyroid Numbers

Your period won’t regulate until your thyroid does.

Look at:

  • TSH
  • Free T3
  • Free T4
  • Reverse T3
  • TPO antibodies

Your hormone healing starts with thyroid healing.

The Lymphatic System: The Hidden Blockage Keeping You Sick, Tired, and Puffy

Leave a reply


Feeling tired, swollen, bloated, puffy, or chronically sick? Your lymphatic system may be blocked. Learn the signs, causes, and simple daily habits that support lymphatic drainage and natural healing.


There’s a kind of sickness nobody talks about —
not doctors, not specialists, not the people who stamp your lab work “normal” when you clearly don’t feel normal.

It’s the sickness of:

✔ waking up puffy
✔ feeling swollen in your face
✔ having “tired eyes” no matter how you sleep
✔ holding water weight for no reason
✔ being exhausted without explanation
✔ feeling heavy, foggy, or sluggish
✔ catching every cold
✔ feeling inflamed after eating
✔ gaining weight in places you never used to

If any of that hits home, there’s a reason:

Your lymphatic system is blocked.

And when the lymphatic system slows down —
your entire body starts whispering (or screaming):

“Help me.”

But don’t worry… once you understand it, you can fix it.

🔥 What Is the Lymphatic System (And Why Your Doctor Never Mentioned It)?

Your lymphatic system is the drainage system of the body.

Its job is to:

  • remove toxins
  • remove waste
  • remove excess fluid
  • support immunity
  • carry fats and nutrients
  • clean out inflammation
  • filter pathogens
  • fight infections

Think of it like plumbing.

If the pipes slow down…

💧 fluid backs up
🔥 inflammation rises
😴 fatigue increases
🥴 toxins accumulate
😣 weight gets stubborn
😑 and healing becomes impossible

A blocked lymphatic system is the real reason so many women feel puffy, swollen, tired, and inflamed.

And here’s the kicker:

The lymphatic system has no pump.
YOU must move it.

🔥 Symptoms of a Sluggish Lymphatic System

If you check more than 5 of these, this blog is about YOU:

✔ Puffy face in the morning
✔ Under-eye bags
✔ Swollen hands/feet
✔ Swollen lymph nodes
✔ Cellulite worsening
✔ Ring marks on your fingers
✔ Belly bloating
✔ Brain fog
✔ Tired all the time
✔ Ear congestion
✔ Breast tenderness
✔ Random itchy skin
✔ Acne on jawline
✔ Neck stiffness
✔ Feeling “stuck” internally
✔ Slow weight loss
✔ Feeling heavy/foggy

Women with hypothyroidism and Hashimoto’s struggle with lymphatic drainage MORE than anyone else.

Why?

Because hypothyroidism slows EVERYTHING:

  • digestion
  • immunity
  • circulation
  • detox pathways
  • lymphatic flow

No one teaches this…
but once you understand it, everything makes sense.

🔥 The #1 Cause of Lymph Blockage: A Sluggish Thyroid

Your thyroid is your metabolic engine.
Your lymphatic system is your drainage system.

If the engine slows down…
so does the drainage.

And the result is the “Hypothyroid Puffy Look” that women talk about but never fully understand:

  • swollen eyes
  • tired face
  • double chin for no reason
  • soft swollen belly
  • arms that feel “full”
  • legs that feel tight or congested
  • bloating that comes out of nowhere

It’s not fat.
It’s fluid.

Your lymphatic system is begging for help.

🔥 So How Do You Unblock the Lymphatic System?

Here Are the 12 Daily Habits That FIX It**

No supplements.
No expensive detox teas.
Just real, honest, ancestral medicine.

✨ 1. Hot Water + Lemon Every Morning

The simplest lymph mover on Earth.

Warms the organs.
Flushes toxins.
Kickstarts drainage.

✨ 2. Dry Brushing (2 Minutes a Day)

Upward strokes toward the heart.
Your skin is your largest detox organ.

This reduces:

  • puffiness
  • cellulite
  • inflammation

✨ 3. Rebounding or Gentle Jumping

Literally the BEST lymphatic exercise.

Just 2 minutes = full-body drainage.

✨ 4. Walking After Meals

Movement moves lymph.
Simple as that.

This targets:

  • belly bloat
  • blood sugar
  • fluid retention

✨ 5. Manual Lymphatic Drainage Massage

You don’t need a spa.

Do this at home:

  • light pressure under ears
  • down the neck
  • across the collarbone

This drains 50% of lymph fluid.

✨ 6. Stay Hydrated (For Real)

Thick blood = stuck lymph.
Thin blood = moving lymph.

Add minerals to your water.

✨ 7. Fix Constipation

If your bowels are stuck…
your lymph will be too.

Eat:

  • berries
  • chia
  • cooked apples
  • fermented foods
  • warm soups

✨ 8. Wear Loose Clothing

Tight waistbands stop lymph flow.
Especially for women with hypothyroidism.

Let your body breathe.

✨ 9. Reduce Dairy & Gluten

Both increase mucus and inflammation, which blocks drainage.

Most women notice:

  • clearer skin
  • less puffiness
  • better digestion
    within 7–10 days.

✨ 10. Deep Belly Breathing

Your diaphragm literally pulls lymph through the body.

Do this 3–4 times a day:
4 seconds in → hold 4 → slow exhale 6

✨ 11. Castor Oil Packs

Over belly or liver.

Reduces inflammation.
Improves drainage.
Eases pain.
Supports thyroid pathways.

✨ 12. Prioritize SLEEP

No sleep = no lymph movement = inflammation city.

Protect your nights like they’re sacred.

🔥 Why Lymphatic Healing Works So Fast

Because your body WANTS to heal.
It’s not broken.
It’s blocked.

Once the lymph moves, everything improves:

  • weight
  • skin
  • energy
  • clarity
  • digestion
  • mood
  • inflammation
  • bloating
  • immunity

Your lymphatic system is the missing piece everyone ignores.

You’re not lazy.
You’re not falling apart.
You’re congested.
And you can fix it — naturally.

The Thyroid–Adrenal War: Why You’re Exhausted Even When You Sleep

Leave a reply


Are you tired no matter how much you sleep? Discover how your thyroid and adrenal glands are secretly fighting each other — and how to finally restore your energy.


There is a special kind of exhaustion that only thyroid warriors understand.

Not “I didn’t sleep well.”
Not “I’m a little tired.”
But a bone-deep, soul-draining weariness that feels like you’re walking through wet cement with bricks tied to your ankles.

You sleep 8 hours.
You wake up tired.
You nap.
You’re still tired.
You drink coffee.
You’re tired AND anxious.

It feels unfair.
It feels unexplained.
It feels humiliating when others don’t get it.

But there is an explanation —
and no, it’s not your age, your laziness, or your imagination.

It’s the Thyroid–Adrenal War.

And once you understand this war, you can finally win it.

Let’s break it down like two characters in your body fighting behind the scenes:

🔥 Meet Soldier #1: Your Thyroid (Your Metabolism Queen)

She’s responsible for:

  • Your energy
  • Your weight
  • Your mood
  • Your temperature
  • Your hair
  • Your digestion

When she slows down, EVERYTHING slows down.

Now imagine she’s exhausted…
trying to scream for help…
but nobody listens.

That’s hypothyroidism.

🔥 Meet Soldier #2: Your Adrenals (Your Stress Generals)

These two tiny glands pump out:

  • Cortisol
  • Adrenaline
  • DHEA

Your adrenals are your life force —
they control your ability to wake up, handle stress, and function during the day.

But here’s the twist:

When your thyroid slows down…
your adrenals step in and overwork themselves to death trying to compensate.

This creates a hormonal disaster.

🔥 The Thyroid–Adrenal War Looks Like This:

1. Thyroid slows down → metabolism drops

Your adrenals panic and pump out cortisol, trying to give you energy.

2. High cortisol → inflammation, anxiety, belly fat, insomnia

Your body thinks it’s surviving an attack.

3. Eventually… adrenals burn out

And now you’re left with:

  • low cortisol
  • low thyroid
  • low energy
  • low motivation
  • deep exhaustion

This is why you’re tired all day
and wired at night.

🔥 Symptoms of Thyroid–Adrenal Burnout

If you nod your head to more than 5 of these…
this is your issue:

✔ Tired but can’t sleep
✔ Wake up exhausted
✔ Midday crash
✔ Rage or irritability
✔ Sugar cravings
✔ Salt cravings
✔ Anxiety for no reason
✔ Hair thinning
✔ Brain fog
✔ Feeling “overwhelmed by nothing”
✔ Feeling shaky without eating
✔ Weight gain around the belly
✔ Cold hands and feet
✔ Light sensitivity

Sound familiar?
You’re not alone — you’re in adrenal exhaustion.

🔥 How To Start Healing the Thyroid–Adrenal War

You don’t have to buy anything.
You don’t need 20 supplements.
You don’t need to starve yourself.

Start HERE:

✨ 1. Eat Within 1 Hour of Waking

This stabilizes cortisol.

Best options:

  • eggs
  • avocado
  • apple + nut butter
  • oats
  • turkey sausage
  • cooked fruit

DO NOT drink coffee before food.
Ever.

✨ 2. Salt Your Water (Yes… Really)

Your adrenals need sodium + potassium balance.

Try:

  • ¼ tsp Celtic salt
  • 8–12 oz warm water
  • squeeze of lemon

This is the quickest adrenal support hack I ever learned.

✨ 3. Stop Fasting

If you have hypothyroidism or Hashimoto’s, intermittent fasting is NOT your friend.

It raises cortisol → slows thyroid → stalls weight loss.

✨ 4. Reduce Caffeine

You don’t have to quit…
but the timing matters.

Never drink caffeine:

  • first thing in the morning
  • during an empty stomach
  • when stressed

Your body interprets caffeine as danger.

✨ 5. Walk 10 Minutes After Meals

This controls:

  • insulin
  • cortisol
  • inflammation
  • digestion

And your thyroid LOVES it.

✨ 6. Eat More Carbs (YES… You Heard Me)

Women with thyroid issues NEED carbs.

Eat:

  • berries
  • apples
  • sweet potatoes
  • quinoa
  • carrots
  • cooked fruit
  • squash

This stabilizes your hormones.

✨ 7. Breathe from Your Belly (Not Your Chest)

Deep belly breathing calms the adrenals.

Try this:
4 seconds in → 4 hold → 6 out

Do it 3 times a day.

✨ 8. Protect Your Sleep Like It’s Holy

No screens after 9 pm.
Hot bath.
Cold room.
Dark space.
Magnesium.

Your body cannot heal without sleep.

✨ Want to Go Deeper?

Your body is not broken.
It’s burned out.

That’s why I write books that don’t just tell you what to eat —
they tell you why your body is suffering
and how to break the cycle.

Here’s where to start:

📙 Reset Your Thyroid: 21-Day Meal Plan
📘 Hashimoto’s Crock-Pot Recipes
📘 A Women’s Holistic Holy Grail Handbook for Hypothyroidism
📗 Fresh & Fabulous Hypothyroidism Body Balance

These are not books —
they’re lifelines.

12 Foods Quietly Destroying Your Thyroid (You’re Eating 6 of Them Right Now)

Leave a reply



If you’ve ever sat at your kitchen table wondering,
“Why am I gaining weight when I’m barely eating?”
or
“Why does my body feel inflamed for no reason?”

There is a reason —
and it’s sitting on your plate.

Most people think hypothyroidism is just “a lazy thyroid,”
but the truth is far more frustrating:

Your thyroid is not lazy.
It’s under attack.

And some of the foods doing the attacking?
They’re foods you reach for every single day — without knowing the damage they cause.

So today we’re going to have an honest conversation — woman to woman, survivor to survivor — about the foods that quietly destroy thyroid function.

Not to scare you.
But to free you.

Because once you know better…
your healing becomes unstoppable.

🔥 1. Soy (Milk, meat substitutes, tofu, protein shakes)

Soy contains goitrogens, chemicals that literally block your thyroid from absorbing iodine — the mineral your thyroid requires to function.

What it does:

  • Raises TSH
  • Lowers T4/T3 conversion
  • Wrecks your metabolism
  • Imitates estrogen → hormone chaos

You think you’re being healthy.
Your thyroid thinks it’s being strangled.

🔥 2. Vegetable Oils (soybean, canola, corn, peanut)

These oils are in EVERYTHING.

What they cause:
Inflammation → autoimmunity → slower metabolism → stubborn belly fat

If your belly feels inflamed after eating?
It’s probably the oil, not the food.

🔥 3. Gluten

Gluten and Hashimoto’s are best friends in hell.

Science shows:
People with Hashimoto’s often produce antibodies that attack gluten and thyroid tissue… because the proteins look similar.

That means:
Your body thinks your thyroid IS gluten.
So it attacks both.

🔥 4. Conventional Dairy

Not all dairy is evil —
but processed U.S. dairy full of hormones and casein A1?

Your thyroid hates it.

This one is the cause of:

  • bloating
  • mucus
  • inflammation
  • skin issues
  • slowed digestion

🔥 5. Sugar (including “healthy” sugars)

Sugar causes:

  • inflammation
  • blood sugar swings
  • hormone imbalance
  • cortisol spikes
  • weight gain

And because your metabolism is already slow…
Sugar hits you harder than most people.

🔥 6. Caffeine on an Empty Stomach

This one shocks people.

Coffee first thing in the morning spikes:

  • adrenaline
  • cortisol
  • blood sugar
  • inflammation

Your thyroid does NOT like chaos at 7 AM.

Coffee is not the enemy.
The timing is.

🔥 7. Artificial Sweeteners

Aspartame, sucralose, Ace-K…

Listen.
These are poison for your thyroid.

They disrupt gut bacteria —
and 20% of thyroid hormone conversion happens in the gut.

So if your gut is dying?
Your thyroid is too.

🔥 8. Farmed Fish

Full of:

  • mercury
  • PCBs
  • antibiotics

These chemicals lodge themselves in your thyroid tissue and disrupt hormones.

If you crave fish → choose wild-caught.

🔥 9. Corn (yes… CORN)

GMO corn is inflammatory, hard to digest, and spikes glucose.

If you feel bloated after Mexican food?
It’s the corn — not the tacos.

🔥 10. Tap Water

Full of:

  • chlorine
  • fluoride
  • metals
  • pesticides
  • PFAS

Fluoride alone can drop thyroid function by 30%.

Get a filter.
Your thyroid will thank you.

🔥 11. Fast Food (even the “healthy” options)

Loaded with:

  • rancid oils
  • preservatives
  • chemicals
  • MSG
  • hormone disruptors

One bite = inflammation for up to 72 hours.

🔥 12. Raw Cruciferous Vegetables

Cooked = fine.
Raw = goitrogen city.

Examples:

  • kale
  • broccoli
  • cauliflower
  • cabbage
  • bok choy

Raw smoothies with kale?
Not your friend.

✨ So What Should You Eat Instead?

Here’s the GOOD NEWS:

Your body is not broken.
It’s inflamed.
It’s exhausted.
And it’s begging for the right foods.

Which is exactly why I created:

📘 Hashimoto’s Crock-Pot Recipes
📘 Reset Your Thyroid: 21-Day Plan📘
📘 Pawsitively Nourished (for your fur baby too)

Every one of these books was born from my healing journey —
the SAME journey you’re on.

Movie Review: Ambulance — A Frenzied Masterpiece About Brotherhood, Loyalty, and the Lives We Don’t See

Leave a reply

By A.L. Childers — Author of the worldwide bestseller The Lies We Loved: How Advertising Invented America

Author Disclaimer

Before we dive in, here’s something my readers already know about me:
I don’t watch movies when everyone else does.

Nope. I’m not wired like a regular human.
If the world is screaming “You HAVE to watch this!” I walk the other direction, open a book, mind my business, and circle back around ten years later.

It took me a decade after Friends ended to finally watch episode one.
That’s the timeline we’re working with here.

So yes—Ambulance released in 2022, and yes—it has taken me three whole years to press play.
And honestly?
I’m glad I waited. Because watching it now, as an author who just published a global bestseller about American culture, manipulation, and human truth…
I saw this movie differently than most.

Why Ambulance Works — And Why It Surprised Me

I expected chaos.
I expected explosions, gunfire, Michael Bay madness, and Jake Gyllenhaal giving one of his trademark “I’m about to snap but make it charismatic” performances.

What I didn’t expect was heart.

This movie is marketed as a “bonkers, profane thrill ride,” and sure—that’s one way to put it.
But for me?
Ambulance hit somewhere much deeper.

Because this isn’t just a movie about two men on the run.
It’s a movie about family that isn’t blood, about the kind of loyalty most people only wish they had, and the kind that many of us—myself included—learned the hard way.

Danny and Will: The Brothers Every Broken Family Understands

I cried.
Let me say it again like a Southern mother at church:
I. Cried.

Danny and Will may not be biological brothers, but their connection is the kind of bond people spend a lifetime searching for.
Protective.
Unconditional.
Unshakeable.

I felt it in my chest when Danny snapped:

“Pretend brother? He’s my real brother.”

That line alone is worth the price of admission.

Because many of us know the truth:
Sometimes blood is just DNA.
Family is chosen.

And as someone who has survived a whole lot of betrayal from blood relatives, I know loyalty when I see it—and Danny and Will had that rare, bone-deep devotion most people never experience.

The Backstory That Explains Everything

This is the part many viewers overlook.

Danny and Will’s father was a notorious criminal, a man tied up in violent heists and the kind of life the FBI never forgets.
Agent Anson Clark remembers Danny from when he was “that kid running around the yard while your father robbed banks.”

That moment matters.
It explains why Danny is wired the way he is.
Why Will keeps forgiving him.
Why Danny feels responsible for Will’s future.
And why loyalty—above all else—is the only language Danny truly speaks.

Their father’s sins sit in every frame.
The movie doesn’t glorify it.
It explains it.

The EMT Arc: The Unsung Heroes Who Keep America Alive

Now let’s talk about Cam Thompson—the EMT whose storyline should honestly be required watching for anyone who thinks their problems are bigger than everyone else’s.

What EMTs, paramedics, trauma medics, and first responders deal with daily is something the average person couldn’t survive for 24 hours.

They are the miracle before the hospital.
And they are rarely respected, rarely paid what they deserve, and constantly thrown into hellfire situations like the one in this movie.

The film did right by them.
And I appreciate that.
Deeply.

The Bigger Message: We All Do What We Do for a Reason

One of the strongest threads in Ambulance is this idea:

People aren’t what they seem.
They are what they’ve survived.

Mothers, teachers, doctors, medics, FBI agents, soldiers, strangers on the street—every one of them carries a motive built on experience, pain, hope, or desperation.

The movie never excuses bad choices. But it does explain them.
And that’s what makes it powerful.

Professional Takeaway: Why I Loved This Movie

The cinematography is frenetic and bold.
The acting is layered, emotional, and believable.
The pacing is pure adrenaline.
And the brotherhood?
That’s what made it unforgettable.

I hate I waited this long to watch it—but also, I don’t.
Because now I get to see it through the lens of someone who just published a bestselling book about how media shapes our emotions, our culture, and our illusions.

And yes—this movie is a thrill ride.
But it’s also a commentary on America.
On loyalty.
On trauma.
On survival.
On the families we create when the ones we were born into fail us.

If you loved the emotional undercurrent of Ambulance—the social systems, the cultural psychology, the human reality behind the chaos—
you’ll love my global bestseller:

The Lies We Loved: How Advertising Invented America

A deep dive into how American culture, identity, and even our emotions are shaped by marketing, media, and storytelling.

It’s raw.
It’s researched.
And like Ambulance, it shows you the truth hiding behind the noise.

Final Verdict: 10/10

Action? Yes.
Heart? Absolutely.
Tears? Shockingly, yes.
Characters? Rich and unforgettable.
Message? Deeper than expected.

This is more than a movie.
It’s a mirror of what loyalty really looks like—and a reminder that sometimes the people who save us are the ones we choose.

A Tumultuous Life, Brimming With Ashes and Embers — Yet Still I Rise Victorious

Leave a reply

By A.L. Childers — Bestselling Author, Unbreakable Spirit, Architect of Her Own Resurrection

Author’s Disclaimer

The reflections herein are told with humor, candor, a certain Southern wind at my back, and the unabashed confessions of a woman acquainted with both shadows and sunrise.
I offer truth, not perfection; resilience, not resignation; and above all, a sincere account of a life that has refused, time and again, to lay itself quietly down.

In Which the Heroine Surveys the Wreckage

It has often been said that a life well-lived is a tapestry woven of joy and sorrow, triumph and calamity.
If that be true, then mine resembles less a tapestry and more a great, sprawling manuscript left out in a storm — its pages soaked, smudged, and rearranged by the wild and indifferent winds of fate.

There are mornings when I awaken and regard my circumstances with the weary amusement of one who has stumbled, yet again, upon a fire smoldering politely in the corner — a fire I did not invite, did not encourage, and yet somehow must now extinguish with nothing but determination and a tea cup.

Friends, acquaintances, gentle readers:
My life has often been nothing short of a beautiful, roaring catastrophe.

And yet — as Dickens himself so finely understood — there is a peculiar nobility borne only from adversity.

For even amidst the ashes, I find embers.

And even amongst the embers,
I discover the faint outline of hope.

In Which Life’s Unruly Troubles Become Unexpected Teachers

Let it never be said that difficulty arrives empty-handed.
No — she comes bearing lessons wrapped in coarse cloth,
advice concealed in sorrow,
wisdom painted in the dark varnish of experience.

I have stumbled through rooms of heartbreak,
wandered the corridors of uncertainty,
and stood upon thresholds where the ground beneath me trembled with the weight of unspoken truths.

And yet —
from every fall, I have risen.
From every humiliation, I have gathered insight.
From every misfortune, I have carved a chapter worthy of the book I am writing now.

A story of reinvention.
A story of survival.
A story that tells the truth — not the polished truth sold by merchants of illusion,
but the truth scraped from the bone and carried gently, carefully, to the light.

In Which the Heroine Learns the Art of Beginning Again

Oh, how extraordinary the human heart is —
that it may be bruised,
battered,
even broken clean in two…
and still,
still it gathers itself together with trembling grace
and murmurs softly,
“We begin again.”

I have remade myself so many times that even the angels grow weary of updating their notes.
Each reinvention has been born not of leisure,
but of necessity.

Indeed, necessity has been my fiercest mentor.

When one life grew too small,
I stepped into another.
When a dream collapsed under the weight of false promises,
I dreamt anew.
When I found myself submerged beneath the tide of other people’s expectations,
I rose — breathless, wiser, and far less inclined to apologise for my existence.

Reinvention, dear reader, is not betrayal of the self.
It is the rescue of it.

In Which Writing Becomes the Lantern That Lights the Way

There are those who write for pleasure,
those who write for coin,
and those who write because the words refuse to remain silent.

I am, quite helplessly, the latter.

My stories — all two hundred of them and counting —
were not composed from a chaise lounge overlooking some tranquil garden.
Oh no.

They were written from kitchen tables still warm from the day’s troubles.
From midnight desks illuminated by the sighs of insomnia.
From the wounded, weary heart of a woman who refused to let darkness claim the last word.

My newest work — the one whose shape you have watched arise from dust and determination —
is perhaps the bravest of them all.

It is born from the ashes.
From the embers.
From the chaos, I learned to translate into clarity.

And for that reason alone,
It is the most honest creation I have ever dared to write.

In Which the Heroine Invites the Reader to Walk With Her

If you find within these lines some echo of your own experience,
some tremor of your own longing,
some whisper of your own resilience —
Then know this:

You are not walking alone.

We are travelers on the same peculiar path —
one paved not with perfection,
but with courage.

May we continue,
you and I,
to rise from whatever trials attempt to bury us…
and turn those trials into pages worth reading.

Leave a reply

There are mornings when the world wakes slowly — as if rising from an old dream — and the kitchen becomes the first place where magic stretches its limbs.

Steam curls upward from a copper kettle, soft as breath on a cold window. Rosemary cracks beneath a mortar’s stone weight, releasing a scent that is green, sharp, and ancient enough to stir memories you didn’t know belonged to you. Candlelight trembles along the counter, dancing across jars filled with herbs, stories, and quiet rebellions.

It’s in moments like these that you realize:

Every meal is a spell.
Every person who cooks with love is a witch reborn.

The seasons live in these pages.

🌱 Spring tastes like mint crushed under rain-soaked fingers.
🔥 Summer arrives as peaches that drip sunlight.

not only flavor and aroma, but memory, intuition, and spirit.
