Heard about the MTHFR gene or know that you have it? With all the info out there, it’s really confusing to know what you should do if you have it. And the truth is, it could be a reason why you’re having a hard time getting good sleep, even if you’re taking methylated B vitamins like you’ve heard about.

In today’s episode, I’m going to briefly explain:

• the MTHFR gene and methylation

• how the mutation could be affecting your sleep, mood and health

• what to do if you have it so you don’t waste money on supplements you don’t need

Knowing this will eliminate a lot of confusion you have about the gene and also help you understand why you have sleep and other health issues.

If you're ready to understand how methylation and the MTHFR gene are causing your sleep issues and how to fix them, this episode is for you.

In the Complete Sleep Solution program, I screen for the MTHFR gene in the intake questionnaire as soon as you sign up. If the gene is acting up, I’ll recommend a plan to address it right away so we don’t have to wait for your test results to come back.

Do you have trouble falling asleep or you wake up at 3am most nights? And you’ve tried what seems like everything?

What if you could consistently sleep 7-9 hours a night without waking up instead? What if you could get the sleep you need and wake up feeling rested with energy, without drugs or a ton of supplements?

I’m Martha Lewis and I’m a certified sleep expert and functional health coach, and I struggled to sleep for 2 years before I finally figured out why. Now I sleep well and wake up refreshed, and my goal is to help you do the same.

You see, what I've learned is that there are imbalances in your body that affect sleep and that functional lab testing will show those imbalances even if your blood work is normal. After I addressed the underlying health issues and fixed my sleep and have helped over 200 clients do the same over the past 5 years, I’ve made it my mission to help you get restful sleep too.

On this podcast, every week I’ll be sharing reasons why you can’t sleep, how to improve your sleep and inspirational client success stories. By tuning in, you’ll learn what’s really affecting your sleep and how to fix it so that ultimately you can get the quality sleep you need to have energy, optimize your health, and live the life you want to live.

Most episodes are going to be solo episodes where I give practical tips to improve your sleep right away, dispel myths you’ve heard about sleep, or teach you a specific lesson. Other times, I’m going to feature guests who have other tools that can help with sleep. And you’ll meet my amazing clients who have also permanently fixed their sleep so they can share with you exactly how they did it.

So if you’re not getting the quality or amount of sleep you want and you’re looking to improve your sleep and health, go ahead and subscribe to the Sleep Detective podcast wherever you get your podcasts. Pretty soon you’ll be well on your way to understanding what’s keeping you awake at night so you can consistently sleep 7+hours like a baby.

Are you waking up at 2 or 3am and it’s affecting your health and fitness? You’re fatigued and your cramps while running have gotten worse? This was happening to my client Paul before he started working with us.

In today’s episode Paul tells his story about working with the Sleep Detective:

• how he was sleeping and feeling before,

• what he had tried that didn’t work,

• what his test results showed,

• how the program helped him sleep better in only a couple of months,

• and how he feels amazing now and just had a personal best time for a half marathon.

If you’re ready to hear about how Paul was finally able to overcome his sleep issues and be inspired that you can do it too, this episode is for you.
