Welcome to the Primal Potential Podcast. I am your host, Elizabeth Benton. If you want

to create change in any area of your life, you're in the right place. Together, we'll

explore the strategies and tools I've used to lose over a hundred pounds, pay off $130,000

in debt, and become a multiple seven figure business owner. I've supported thousands of

women to levels of execution and fulfillment they didn't know were possible. So if you're

frustrated, if you're doubting yourself, if you're not enjoying the journey, there's a

better way. Together, we'll break through your past patterns, we'll eliminate the appeal

of your excuses so you can get consistent, stay consistent, create the results you want,

and most importantly, enjoy the journey. Let's get started.

Thank you so much for joining me today. I know a lot of you are going to be thrilled to

hear that this is a what we call sciencey episode. I hear all the time, I love your sciencey

really love diving into how the body works. Of course, when it comes to creating change,

how the mind works tends to be a much bigger factor. And so that's why we talk about that

a lot more here. After years of focusing on the science, it was just super clear that

while people love to learn, changing is really more about your mind. And that's why the

podcast content reflects that breakdown. Today, we're going to be talking about C-reactive

protein. We're going to be talking about inflammation and we're going to be talking about my

experience over the last several months with a functional medicine doctor. And to kind

of bring everybody up to speed, I posted about this in the Primal Potential Facebook
