137. A Pharmacist’s Take On The Wellness Mistakes Women Are Making: Cortisol, Health Trends & What Actually Moves The Needle with Ariana Medizade
In today's episode, Elizabeth sits down with Ariana Medizade, a pharmacist and wellness educator, for a pharmacist's take on the wellness mistakes women are making. They get into what conventional medicine gets right and wrong, how Ariana navigated her own anxiety and hormone issues with both supplements and medication, and why "natural" doesn't always mean harmless. Ariana breaks down what cortisol actually does to the body, including the truth about cortisol belly and cortisol face, and shares her tips for better sleep, her viral basil seed drink, and her internal perfume recipe. They also talk about moving from rigid biohacking to "bioharmony," and Ariana shares the story behind her new cycle-syncing tea brand, Cinis.If you want to go DEEPER with me, my Substack is where I share even more behind-the-scenes, personal reflections, and wellness experiments, with new posts dropping every Thursday: https://substack.com/@thewellnessprocessFollow Ariana Medizade:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wellness.pharmTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thewellnesspharmShop Cinis:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/takecinis_Website: https://www.takecinis.comDiscount code for Wellness Process Pod listeners for CINIS website!Code is: WELLNESSPOD for $7 off their first tea box purchase!
