About this episode
In this episode, we take a critical look at the Women's Health Initiative (WHI) study and its long-lasting impact on the perception of hormone replacement therapy (HRT). We delve into why the WHI study led to many years of misguided, fear-driven medical advice regarding HRT. This discussion sets the stage for a broader conversation on how to approach hormone health more holistically and effectively.
You’ll learn practical advice on managing hormone levels naturally, as well as how to evaluate hormone levels and recognize symptoms of imbalances in estrogen, testosterone, and progesterone.
Plus, get insight on the foods that foster hormonal health, along with the benefits of certain supplements and herbs that aid in hormone balance and detoxification. This approach not only helps in alleviating symptoms but also in maintaining long-term health and well-being during menopause and beyond.
