Recently, I had the absolute pleasure of interviewing Laura Bruner of MyRadicalRoots.com.  Laura is a certified CrossFit trainer and a certified Nutritional Consultant (in addition to being a credentialed English teacher…how cool!) so when I found myself with some questions that related to strenuous and chronic health problems, I couldn’t think of a better person to go to!

About The Interview

In this interview, we talk about important considerations when it comes to working out when you have chronic health problems such as gut dysfunction, hormonal imbalances, and especially adrenal health problems.  Not only is Laura really knowledgeable about these topics in generally because she deals with these things all the time with clients, but she has personally dealt with these issues which I think makes her especially well-suited to answer questions!

We also talked quite a bit about nutrient dense foods and the importance of eating enough carbohydrates for hormonal health.  It was really interesting to hear her progression from carb limiting to eating freely and the impact it has had on her health and workouts.
