On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared welcomes back Dr. Kate Rhéaume to dive deep into the root causes and natural solutions for stress, anxiety, and sleeplessness. Together, they explore the mounting pressures of modern life, how our brains and bodies respond to chronic stress, and how these responses impact sleep, digestion, weight, and mood. They also break down some of nature’s most powerful tools—like L-theanine, GABA, saffron extract, and magnesium—sharing clinical insights and practical tips for using them safely and effectively. Jared and Dr. Kate discuss the differences between forms of GABA and theanine, how stress influences cortisol and sleep, and the surprising science behind a newcomer called Peaceful Zzz. Whether you’re looking to calm your racing mind, find deeper sleep, or support a stressed-out child, this episode is packed with evidence-based strategies to help restore balance naturally.
