Send us a textBerry Good MedicineEnding Physician Overwhelm – Episode 205This week we’re diving into one of the easiest, most delicious ways to lower stress and protect your health as a women physician: berries. Yes… berries. No, they won’t fix the existential dread of your overflowing inbox, but they will equip your brain and body to handle the demands of physician life with more ease, more resilience, and more energy.In Week 6 of our 10-Week Recharge Challenge we’re focusing on how berries help reduce oxidative stress, improve endothelial function, support cognitive performance, lower LDL, reduce inflammation, and literally protect your telomeres. (Translation: they help you age well despite the dumpster fire of modern medicine.)Inside this episode we explore:Why berries outperform apples, bananas, and mangoes on anti-inflammatory scales (by a landslide)The surprisingly robust research on berries and heart health, cognition, joint inflammation, and blood pressureHow berries can support metabolic health when chronic stress, cortisol, and irregular schedules work against usWhy separating dairy from your antioxidants helps you get the full benefit (no shame—just physiology)Easy ways to get more berries into your day, no perfectionism requiredHow this week fits into the broader arc of yoga nidra → greens → breath → sleep → laughter → berriesWe’re not aiming for perfect. We’re aiming for better—one small intentional practice at a time. You deserve a body and brain that feel supported, not just squeezed for output.✨ Browse the books mentioned in this challenge: How Not to Age and The Telomere Effect on my Bookshop page: 👉 https://bookshop.org/shop/meganmelo✨ If you’re joining us mid-challenge, start at Episode 200 (Oct 28th)—no behind, no guilt.Let’s eat some berries, protect this incredible physician body of yours, and keep going.Let's ConnectNeed more support?
