Dr. Brooke Show

Sleep is a complex process that is regulated by your hormones and immune system, it’s no wonder when you're stressed and inflamed how quickly your sleep goes downhill. Sleep supplements abound and most of you have had hit and miss results with “taking stuff for sleep” at bedtime. In this episode I will get into the various phases of sleep and how cortisol will impact them and why my mantra will always be: a good night’s sleep starts in the morning. This show will help you understand how cortisol and stress are impacting your sleep and help you structure your day and your habits for better sleep.

We all know the downsides of alcohol, but it is still something many decide to enjoy on occasion. Most of us also notice that especially as we get into our 40s and beyond that one glass of wine feels like way more than a glass the next day. If you choose to indulge, one dose of ZBiotics before drinking any alcohol can make you feel way less yucky the next day! Cool…but how? The yuck the day after having alcohol is due to a buildup of acetaldehyde (a byproduct of alcohol metabolism). ZBiotics is a probiotic formula that helps you break down acetaldehyde in the gut so you can have a great workout and a great day even after a drink the night before.
