@rootedfunctionalmedicine: Night Sweats? Here's What Your Body Is Really Telling You Night sweats are one of the most searched symptoms right now - and they're not just from stress or needing a new mattress. They're a warning sign from your body. In this video, I break down 7 root causes of night sweats from a functional medicine lens: 1. Hormonal shifts (estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, cortisol) 2. Blood sugar instability 3. Candida/yeast overgrowth 4. Hidden infections and viral reactivations 5. Nervous system dysregulation 6. Heavy metal toxicity 7. Postpartum or post-stress hormone crashes The problem? Standard blood work almost never shows the root cause - which is why so many people get dismissed. Functional medicine looks deeper at toxicity load, nervous system patterns, nutrient deficiencies, fungal markers, and hormone ratios - all the things your regular doctor isn't checking. If you're sweating in your sleep, your body is telling you something is off. I run at-home functional labs that show you exactly what's causing it so we can fix it. 💬 Click the link in my bio to book a discovery call today 💾 Save this for later 📤 Share with someone experiencing night sweats #nightsweats #hormones #candida #guthealth #functionalmedicine

I sweat heavily at night. I change 3 times a night. I don’t sweat during the day or even when I’m working out. I also take creatine daily. Could creatine be a factor in night sweats

I’m in my second half of didactic year for PA school and I’ve had consistent drenching night sweats for 3 months now and my lab work was all fine. Do you think it’s just stress?

I would go to bed freezing then wake up sweaty either at around 2 am or 4am. And only when I had a heavy meal at night or when I’m a few days before my period! Ao I’ll balance my hormones and the blood sugar thank you!
