Pull up a chair and maybe grab a second mug, because today we’re pouring from the deepest carafe yet. Mandy and Jaime sit down with AnaM.Lopez, NTP, certified holistic & nutritional‑therapy practitioner and founder of Clean Healthy Living, a wellness practice devoted to metabolic health and personalized nutrition for women’s hormone balance.

What’s in Ana’s cup? It’s the most elaborate drink we’ve featured so far (ingredients listed in the show notes), but the conversation is even richer:

• Root‑Cause Mindset Why hormone “imbalance” is often a symptom, not the starting point, and how finding the true root changes everything.
• Constipation & Gut Clues Real‑talk on poop, bloating, and the functional labs Ana uses to decode what your gut is telling you.
• Early Metabolic Red Flags Subtle signs your body isn’t firing on all cylinders and first steps you can take today.
• Stress, Blood Sugar & the Whole Picture How chronically high stress wobbles glucose (yes, even if you “eat clean”), and why the scale is information, not identity.
• Sourdough Chat From fermentation myths to practical tips, Ana demystifies everyone’s favorite tangy loaf.

This episode dives deep fast hormones, nutrition, stools, stress, and so much more served up with Ana’s signature clarity and a toolkit you can start using right away. Stick around till the final sip for rapid‑fire tips you won’t want to miss.

Key Takeaway: Metabolic health isn’t about size; it’s about function. Your body is talking let’s learn to listen.
