The Microbiome gets a lot of attention these days, but are you protecting your Glycobiome? Today on The Girlfriend Doctor, I welcome renowned fertility expert Dr. Robert Kiltz. He has been featured in the Wall Street Journal, Parents Magazine, and CNBC for his work making IVF affordable and accessible. Using diet and mindset to supplement low-dose IVF therapy, Dr. Kiltz has reduced the cost of IVF to a third of the national average.

Unfortunately, hormone replacement therapies do literally replace your ability to produce your own hormones. Through education and advocating for a treatment that suits the prese

Today on The Girlfriend Doctor, I am joined by Dr.Mary Claire Haver, founder of the Galveston diet! Dr. Haver is helping you master your hormones so you can confidently step into the second spring of your life. Menopause is often viewed as a disease because so many women are suffering from imbalanced hormones and poor diets that are causing the symptoms associated with menopause.  Although weight loss is a beneficial side effect, The Galveston diet is not focused on weight management but on reducing inflammation. Every woman is unique but by focusing on lowering inflammation and balancing your hormones, you can reclaim your health at any age. In this episode, Dr. Haver teaches you how you can add intermittent fasting to your menopause tool kit, to help you combat inflammation and balance your hormones. Many doctors are still recommending that ovaries should be

Today on the Girlfriend Doctor, we examine how you can master your insecurities with Lisa Bilyeu, co-founder of Quest nutrition. Her book, Radical Confidence is an eye opening guide on how you can incrementally improve yourself by changing your thought patterns into a positive and empowering understanding of your own potential. Confidence is not inherent but is generated from relentless effort towards improvement.  In this episode, Lisa shares exactly how you can build awareness of the limiting beliefs that restrain your mind and subsequently the actions you take towards your best self. If you surrender to the fact that perfection is unattainable and confidence is created from competence, you will become unstoppable. You have limitless potential and a choice to shape and pursue your life mission.  By understanding yourself and defining your purpose, you will be

Today on the Girlfriend Doctor, I discuss inner and outer beauty with Rachel Varga. She is a Double Board Certified Aesthetic Nurse Specialist. After personally performing over 20,000 procedures, Rachel now trains physicians and nurses, across the globe, to perform safe and holistic treatments. In her research, she has discovered some disturbing realities about the technology, products and even the lights you are exposed to in your daily life. In this episode, she provides healthy alternatives to toxic routines in hopes of reducing your toxic burden.  You may be unknowingly burdening your skin with electromagnetic frequencies that are actually making your blood sticky. Without proper circulation, your blood can not effectively deliver nutrients to your skin and also inhibits its ability to purge metabolic waste. Rachel teaches you how to mitigate exposure by grounding yourself in nature and detoxing from y

Today on the Girlfriend Doctor, I uncover the beauty of suffering with Dr. Jill Carnaham, a board certified integrative medicine specialist and author of Unexpected. As a patient, Dr. Carnaham survived breast cancer, crohn’s disease, leaky gut syndrome and despite facing her own mortality now seeks to help those suffering from a similar fate. Known as the Sherlock Holmes of medicine, she instills compassion and an investigative approach to medicine, to find the root cause of her patients' illnesses.  Growing up on a farm using the toxic herbicide Atrazine, triggered Dr.Carnaham’s lifelong battle with breast cancer. What was once an uncommon diagnosis for a woman her age is now prevalent in even younger patients; as our culture accepts the use of dangerous chemicals, destructive diets and obsessive work habits that destroy your immune system. Although it is agonizing to witness this increased suffering from

Today on The Girlfriend Doctor, Elle Russ, author of The Paleo Thyroid Solution, joins us to discuss thyroid health. Elle has condensed years of knowledge from treating her own hypothyroidism to help women struggling to diagnose, treat or manage their thyroid health. Your Thyroid gland is integral to regulating everything from your sex hormones, metabolism and your endocrine system. Unfortunately, most conventional doctors are decades behind on the leading thyroid treatments and often make detrimental mistakes when treating patients.  You know your body better than any doctor could hope to with labs and testing. While there are general ranges for healthy hormones, every person has different needs that require specialized testing and individualized treatment. There is no “one size fits all” for thyroid treatment and many doctors are treating patients with an antiquated TSH protocol that is leaving patients

Today’s guest is Dr. Jason Conviser Ph.D, a fellow of the American College of Sports Medicine who has published over 40 scientific journal articles on physical fitness. An anomaly in sports medicine, Dr. Convisor abstains from treating professional athletes because he believes every person is an athlete with the potential to optimize and strengthen their body. In this episode, he shares the therapeutic uses of whole body vibration.  Your body is a machine and it needs movement to perform optimally. Vibration is a simple way of warming up your muscles so you can get the most out of your routine. No matter what age or skill level you can start your fitness journey with a simple walk around the block and full body vibration therapy can help you along your journey. It has been proven to decrease cortisol, increase flexibility, strengthen muscles and support healthy bones. This tool was made to be customized an

Today’s guest is Aimee Raupp, author of Yes, You Can Get Pregnant! She is a fertility coach helping women of all ages conceive. Aimee recognizes a common theme occurring in modern women; stress, premature aging and infertility. Since the 80’s women’s risk of developing an autoimmune disease has dramatically increased so it is no coincidence that women are not only struggling to conceive but are actually entering into menopause earlier in life.  Aimee’s holistic approach is informed by centuries of Chinese medicinal knowledge. This ancient culture understood just how powerful the connection between mind and body is and treated them equally. What you believe establishes your behavior and every behavior shapes your health. In this episode, Aimee shows you how to be kinder to yourself and your body so you enter into your 3rd chapter happier, healthier and fertile. KEY TAKEAWAYS</

On this episode of The Girlfriend Doctor, I discussed mitochondrial health with Sara Banta, owner of Accelerated Health Products, a line of natural supplements aimed at balancing your overall health. She is a health coach and biohacker, with her supplements you can bolster your immune system by giving your body everything it is not getting from the food you’re eating. Mitochondrial health is critical to the health of your entire body and begins at the cellular level which is why supplements are so important when addressing any health issue.  Sara works synergistically with nutrition, lifestyle and her supplements, which focus on frequency enhanced detox that help your body get rid of the toxins overloading your system. Your body is a delicate ecosystem and can easily become dysregulated when exposed to common toxins used in daily life. Your liver is the detoxification pathway of your body and many foods th

On this episode of The Girlfriend Doctor, we sat down with Dr. Campbell and Danny Grannick, two pioneers who are uniting the world of dental and medical care today. Doctors are not trained to account for dental health when diagnosing patients, leaving many people vulnerable to Alzheimer's, Cancer, Infertility and a slew of other complications that are ultimately avoidable. Dr. Ellie Campbell has been working in family medicine for 30 years and is board certified by the American Academy of Integrative Medicine. Like most doctors, she was never addressing oral health with her patients until she witnessed the decline of a patient suffering from an unknown dental infection. Now, her stance is that absolutely no medical team is complete without an oral hygienist on staff.  Danny Grannick has developed an at home test kit ,using  PCR technology, to give people insight into the microbiome of their mouth. Understa

On this episode of The Girlfriend Doctor, we sat down with Dr. Kelly Brogan a clinical psychiatrist turned holistic psychiatrist after witnessing the toll addictive psychiatric drugs had on her patients. The endemic of over diagnosis has convinced many people they are sick when in fact they may just be suffering from their own narrative. If you believe you are a victim it can manifest outwardly as anxiety and depression. You won’t find solace in a prescription but by recognizing your defense mechanisms and reclaiming your power of choice, you may find you weren't actually sick to begin with!  You are rarely truly victimized in this life, because everyday you have the autonomy to choose your outlook, your location, your reactions and an infinite amount of things that make up your experience. Understanding your desires and consciously deciding  to pursue and communicate them will naturally uplift your spirit

On This episode of the Girlfriend Doctor, we had a conversation with Dr. Mindy Pelz, a fasting expert and author of Fast like a Girl! She is making fasting accessible and safe for women to practice in their daily lives. The key is to build awareness of your cycle and strategically plan your fasting to support your hormones. By tapping into your body’s wisdom, you can reap the full health and spiritual benefits of fasting.  It is no coincidence that most cultures practice fasting because it allows your body and mind to cleanse. Fasting is known to increase your energy and by integrating fasting into your life you can live longer, healthier and happier lives. Your energy is often reflected back at you by those around you and fasting is a natural way to  clear negativity and gain clarity in moments of turmoil.    KEY TAKEAWAYS<span style="font-weigh

On this week’s episode of The Girlfriend Doctor, I spoke with Jenn Pike, the head mentor at The Hormone Project. Jenn is a medical exercise specialist and a functional diagnostic nutritionist. On her YouTube channel, Simplicity TV, she is helping women break free from negative patterns and discover their courage to live a life of authenticity.  When life demands so much of your time and attention it is easy to lose yourself, one sacrifice at a time. When burnout consumes you, there comes a moment when you must decide to prioritize your own joy and desire. Bravery can be as simple as making time for yourself everyday.  Living your authentic self is more than just a mindset, it is committing to the lifestyle that energetically aligns with your desires. This can mean giving up things you once loved or adding in new experiences that fulfill you. No matter what you’

On this episode of The Girlfriend Doctor, I am joined by Serena Poon, a celebrity chef and certified nutritionist who’s the founder of Just Add Water, a wellness line of super-nutrient foods and supplements. Serena incorporates soul wisdom into opening up pathways to great health and longevity while also using cutting-edge science. One of the most important areas is gut health, which affects our immune system, our mind, our mood and our behavior. Having a healthy gut is the key to longevity.  She recommends eating the rainbow – ingesting all different types of fruits and veggies along with lots of water to stay hydrated. It’s also important to measure your biomarkers like food intolerance, allergies, nutrient density, hormones and thyroid levels to manage deficits. Mindset is also critical to longevity. We usually w

On this episode of The Girlfriend Doctor, Kevin Ellis joins me to talk about bone health. Kevin is a certified integrative nutrition health coach who was diagnosed with osteoporosis in his thirties and has since become an expert on how to keep your bones healthy and strong. Osteoporosis occurs as a result of behaviors, disorders, diseases and medications that you take, among other things. So make sure you review all factors when it comes to your bone health. When you have osteoporosis, both your bone density and bone quality are reduced and that increases your risk of fracture. The first thing is to get a bone-density test to find out the condition of your bones.  Bone quality – the structural integrity of your bone -- is also important to create bone strength. A TBS test can give you an accurate reading on your bon

Please consider donating to her GoFundme page in honor of Sierra for her family: https://gofund.me/846156f3   On this episode of The Girlfriend Doctor, I take a deep dive into breast health issues and implants, talking to two doctors about breast health and one women who survived breast cancer.  If you’ve been diagnosed with breast cancer, it’s important to take care of your physical and mental health.

I'm on the road in New York City for this week's episode of The Girlfriend Doctor to talk about how to stay healthy and balanced when traveling, no matter what your itinerary is. My first tip is to always travel with a water bottle to stay hydrated. It has to be emptied of course before getting on the plane, but once you've landed, it becomes a lifeline to eliminate toxins and keep bowels regulated.  I always take along my Mighty Maca Plus to support the adrenals, detoxification and alkalinization. Plus, I have my Keto Green Shake on hand for some good nutrition if I'm stuck in an airport. For sleep, I use Night-Zzz for a nourishing night of rest, and Balance cream to moisturize and keep hormones balanced. I have many more tips to share with you, so please listen to the podcast! <span style="font-weigh

On this episode of The Girlfriend Doctor, I look at why algae is so important in your diet, and acts as a superfood. Joining me today is Catharine Arnston, the founder and Chief Scientific Officer of ENERGYbits. She is an expert in algae for wellness in nutrition, beauty, biohacking, mitochondria, and longevity. Algae was actually the first life on earth 4 billion years ago and is now known to be the most nutrient-dense food in the world. Two forms of algae in particular are considered superfoods -- spirulina and chlorella. You can take these in a dried pill form but they must be raw algae, dried at low heat for the nutrients to survive. They offer a multitude of benefits -- your hunger will be cut, your energy will be increased and your brain fog will go away. They contain zero carbs, and contain the critical antioxidants that can stop free radical damage in y

On this episode of The Girlfriend Doctor, Dr. Trevor Cates joins me to talk about hormones and nutrition. Dr. Cates is the author of the USA Today bestselling book Clean Skin From Within and the founder of The Spa Dr. natural skincare line.  In order to obtain hormonal balance, we should look at many factors, including diet and seasonal changes. Our needs change with fall, winter, spring and summer and changing up your diet is important to get the freshest food with the most nutrients. Eating the same diet every day is not optimal. So if you’re used to eating the same chicken salad every single day, try replacing it with something seasonal. Even adult acne can be traced back to our gut health and metabolism because there is a gut-skin connection. Using the right skincare prod

On this week’s episode of The Girlfriend Doctor, I talk with Martin Silva, personal trainer, competitive natural bodybuilder and online transformation coach. When it comes to maintaining weight loss or healthy living habits, many of us get stuck. We might attain a goal but find it hard to maintain that result over time. One of the keys is not changing more than two things at a time, and not going from zero to 100 when setting goals. When you make one or two small goals at a time and stay consistent with those, then the chance to get overwhelmed or fall back on bad habits is minimalized. It's also important to add instead of restrict when setting goals. For example, in nutrition, add more protein or whole foods to your diet rather than restricting other foods. Eating more protein blunts your appetite, and then you can start replacing sugars and processed foods n

On this week’s episode of The Girlfriend Doctor, I talk with James Barry, a private chef who’s been in the culinary field for nearly two decades and believes in the benefits of eating organ meat, otherwise known as offal. Our ancestors ate parts of animals that gave them lots of nutrient-dense food. The foods we eat today are not as nutrient-dense as the food our grandparents ate, so the majority of Americans are nutrient deficient, but not calorie deficient.  72% of men and 63% of women are obese or overweight in the US because they’re eating a lot of food, but that food is low in nutrients. Barry believes that organ meats can really help people to get the nutrients they need. He calls them Mother Nature’s multivitamins and considers animal organs some of the most nutrient-dense foods on the planet. He cites beef l

On this week’s episode of The Girlfriend Doctor, I talk with Dr. Sahar Swidan about the pros and cons of bioidentical hormone replenishment. Dr. Swidan is president and CEO of NeuroPharm and former CEO of Pharmacy Solutions. She is board-certified and an advanced fellow in anti-aging and regenerative therapies. Hormones can play a part in so many health issues throughout our lives, including neurological ones. For example, why do women get migraines and asthma attacks during menstruation? It’s all related to hormonal imbalances in the body. Hormone replacement or replenishment can often go by many different terms, like body identical, bioidentical, natural, synthetic, and these terms can be confusing. Body identical and bioidentical mean what your body makes, and what we are replenishing. Women should make sure that whatever they’re being given is FDA approved,

On this week’s episode of The Girlfriend Doctor, I had a conversation with Kristina Hess, a premier health coach and licensed clinical nutritionist who’s passionate about a ketogenic approach to treat inflammation and restore metabolic health. She’s also the host and founder of Keto Symposium, the first low-carb conference in New York City. Adapting a ketogenic lifestyle can prevent diabetes, heart disease, cancer, menopausal symptoms, brain fog and mood swings. It can also help with weight loss and autoimmune disorders. Having a keto green diet is mandatory for brain health and cognitive function.  A keto green diet promotes a metabolic state where you’re burning fat preferentially over sugar. Eating a lot of protein is key, along with lots of greens and other vegetables. Once you reach a state of ketosis, you no longer experience hunger cravings for carbs and

On this week’s episode of The Girlfriend Doctor, I had a conversation with Gin Stephens, a former elementary school teacher who turned to fasting as a way to lose weight after becoming obese. She is the author of the New York Times bestseller, Fast Feast Repeat as well as Cleanish and other books. Fasting is not about what you eat, but when you eat. It’s become a healthy way to lose unwanted pounds and maintain optimal weight and health. Generally, intermittent fasting means not eating for 16 hours between dinner and breakfast, and then eating regularly for those other 8 hours. The hours may vary per person. When you first take on intermittent fasting, you have to allow your body to get “fa

On this week’s episode of the Girlfriend Doctor Show, I had a conversation with Dr. Robert Whitfield, a world-renowned cosmetic surgeon and breast implant illness expert. Dr. Whitfield takes a holistic approach to breast implant illness that includes genetic testing, mold toxicity, and hormone balancing to help patients heal from the inside out.  In this episode, Dr. Whitfield talks about how many women with breast implants come to him with common symptoms including brain fog, mold exposure, and memory loss. Additionally, they can suffer from increased anxiety, depression, cognitive decline, respiratory issues, dry eyes, sinusitis, gut dysfunction, swelling, bloating, constipation, diarrhea, recurring UTIs, bacterial vaginosis, and muscle and joint pain. These symptoms can also align with mold toxicity or Lyme disease Breast implant illness may also be connecte

In this week’s episode Ken Swartz better known as “Ken the Scientist” ,chief founder of C60 talks about his revolutionary antioxidant. Ken explains how C60 can be more beneficial than hormone replacement therapy because it helps neutralize heavy metals in your body making it easier for your body to clear them. There are many things we encounter every day that can interfere with our mitochondria function and that affects how we think and feel throughout the day but ultimately it affects our hormones. Although it may feel overwhelming, Dr. Ken is here to assure you that you have control over what you consume which can have a dramatic effect on the toxic burden in your body.   Key takeaways: [2:50] C60 is one of the most powerful antioxidants ever discovered.

In this week’s episode I speak with Bela Gandhi about the challenges of Dating in your 50’s. It may seem intimidating dating again during menopause but this can actually be the BEST time to date! At this stage in your life, you can really take a step back and take inventory of all your experiences, so that you can move into a new relationship free of your own destructive habits. All the romantic notions of love that our culture pushes on us, tend to be counterproductive. Bela Bela Gandhi will teach you not to chase the butterflies and instant chemistry; what you really want is a slow burn, enjoy really getting to know someone, dating is an adventure!   Key Takeaways:  [3:10] Dating over 50 is the BEST time to date [4:50] Introspection is essential to move forward into a new healthy relationship <span style="font-weig

In this week’s episode I had an enlightening conversation with Marc David from the Institute for the Psychology of Eating. Marc shares his insight into your relationship with the experience of eating. Willpower is not the only factor contributing to failed dieting,  there is a biological and psychological influence to your eating behaviors and the first step to breaking free from that is awareness!  Marc encourages you to recognize where your bad eating habits started and points out how common it is that these habits start in adolescence. Sometimes, the associations you make when you are a child end up  hijacking your impulses as you experience stress. If you are always rushing through dinner and never pausing to enjoy your food you subconsciously will crave more and more based off these associations of food being an escape from everything that is stressful in your life..  <span style="font-w

In this week’s episode of The Girlfriend Doctor, I wanted to share my personal experience of my own “dark night of the soul”. After testing positive for COVID on a recent trip with my girlfriends;  in isolation, I had the rare opportunity to reflect on how blessed I am as a mother. Initially, I felt fearful, but I am making today’s episode to remind you that all the love you have poured into your children will blossom and that because of that there is nothing to fear. There are so many things beyond our control attacking our mental and physical wellness, so do not allow  stress to deplete your immune system.

Dr. Doni discusses her personal experiences with stress and how they transpired throughout her career and writing her book, how 90% of doctor visits are due to stress, the importance of optimizing our adrenal glands and cortisol, and more. We also speak about the different kinds of testing used to measure cortisol in the body and supplements to manage the nervous system adequately. We may think that stress is something that is temporary and will have no significant toll on our bodies but that is far from wrong. <span style="fon

Connie is the co-owner (along with her husband) of Sunlighten, the manufacturer of the first saunas to offer near, mid, and far infrared technology. Her background is in executive marketing for Procter & Gamble’s pharmaceutical division, so it was very interesting to hear how she shifted from that to selling saunas.

Her products are on sale right now, and viewers of this show can receive up to $600 off her products! The infrared light that beams from the sun is so very important but not many can hav

On this week’s episode of the Girlfriend Doctor Show, we’re doing things a little differently. I attended the Women in Tech Global Summit 2022 in Paris, France. Under the High Patronage of Ms. Elizabeth Moreno, French Minister for Gender Equality, Diversity, and Equal Opportunities, the theme is ‘HERoes Shaping Tomorrow’, which celebrates women across the world who are the Shakers, Makers, and Innovators of our new society and economy. The panel of speakers I was a part of consisted of high-caliber people and the talk revolved mainly around food supply and how the quality of our food has been gradually declining. Terri Cochran, a past guest here on the Girlfriend Doctor, emphasized how not only is the food quality decreasing, but the way in which we manage and waste it is slowly leading our manmade emissions here in our home, earth. Overall, the discussion was

One concept that Marla really emphasized is that happiness is not a forever feeling. One is going to be down in the dumps one

On this week’s episode of the Girlfriend Doctor Show, I had a conversation with Maria Marlowe. Maria is an Acne Nutritionist, helping people of all different shapes and sizes achieve their acne-free skin they truly deserve. Maria approaches healthy skin through the use of healthy foods and healthy lifestyle habits. We discuss many topics in this interview but the main topics Maria emphasizes are paying attention to our body’s signals, how inflammation can lead to leaky gut and gut dysbiosis, and what foods to eat that will help you diminish your acne. Once again, we are informed that the food we eat can be the main cause for our health problems. Many people talk about how refined sugars and carbs are the main causes for inflammation in the body and how it can be detrimental to our health. But not many show you exactly how to replace those foods with healthier,

On this week’s episode of the Girlfriend Doctor Show, we had a conversation with the founders of Kenetik, Devon Price and Peter Bayne. On their journey of finding a sustainable diet and exercise regime, they tried the keto diet and found that ketones were the key to sustainable and healthy energy levels and mental clarity. But as we know, keto foods don’t always taste the best so Devon and Peter decided to take matters into their own hands and produce this effective and tasty ketone drink! In this talk, we discuss the many benefits that come from ketones and how they can help with curbing the appetite, intermittent fasting, and how ketones can prevent and possibly reverse Alzheimer’s and other serious neurological diseases and illnesses. Kenetik has now been tested by many groups of people and organizations and many have seen positive results in their daily routine, especially in their fitness regime.</spa

But more than that, she is a master communicator, and she details how she got started on her journey in the world of functional nutrition. As someone who has studied hormonal health for quite some time, she shares her story of how she got introduced to the world of functional medicine through battling her own autoimmune disease when she was in her twenties and then again in her diagnosis during her 2nd pregnancy. Margaret emphasizes that diversity always rules, so there’s not going to be a one-size-fits-all as far as cures for autoimmune diseases goes. Everybody’s physiol

On this episode of the Girlfriend Doctor Show, we had a conversation with entrepreneur extraordinaire, Misty Williams. Misty is a successful businesswoman/marketing strategist. After facing many physiological hardships like hypothyroidism and premature ovarian failure, she made it her duty to heal herself from these illnesses, with the main contributors being mold toxicity and stress.  Mold toxicity definitely does not get the recognition it deserves. Misty dives deep into the dangers of mold toxicity and how it can lead to other illnesses or diseases and how accessing the parasympathetic tone of our nervous system can be the key factor in restoring and repairing our body.  Misty talks about undergoing many meetings with doctors only for them to tell her she needed pills or surgery. She refused to go down that path so she

He integrated his professions to become president of Functional Diagnostic Nutrition, where he specializes in rebuilding and maintaining the stability of the hormone, immune, digestion, and detoxification systems. In this episode, we also discuss the dangers of thyroids, as well as exterior factors that may exacerbate our brain and gut health, such as toxins in the air and artificial colors, flavors, and preservatives. Almost every guest we have on here always seems to circle around a topic that we discuss quite frequently on The G

Dr. Keesha details how unexpressed emotions as a child can linger in our bodies until they are fully purged out of our system. Specific events in our childhood can have a significant amount of trauma related emotion, which can lead to several illnesses and diseases like RA (rheumatoid arthritis), an autoimmune and inflammatory diseases, one which Dr. Keesha was able to heal from, fortunately. As adults, what we think is trauma is much different from what we thought it was as children. Most ki

On this episode of The Girlfriend Doctor, we had a conversation with the lovely Teri Cochrane. Teri is the CEO and Founder of the Global Sustainable Health Institute. But more than that, she is a international thought leader in longevity and some would even call her a “spiritual scientist”, and if you tune in, you will find out why! Teri and I discussed many important topics regarding menopause like the dangers of endocrine disruptors like DES, to the emotional and generational traumas that are passed down from mother to fetus. But one topic of discussion that was different was how important it is to do the spiritual work for the inner-body. Our bodies are literally made up energy and when we take good care of our energy, it radiates. When we radiate, we are operating at a high vibrational frequency, and Teri puts a strong emphasis on this because many of us are not conscious enough of our energy.<s

On this week’s episode of The Girlfriend Doctor, we had a conversation with my very good friend/colleague of many years, Robin Nielsen. Robin is a hormone expert, Certified Clinical Nutritionist, and Board Certified in Holistic Health. Robin has been helping women with menopausal health for many years now and she gives us her secrets to maintain a healthy and thriving life! Robin discusses the importance on not only focusing on sex hormones because they’re miniscule compared to the other main hormones, which are cortisol and insulin. She explains why that these are the main hormones women should focus on because they are the main factors that either contribute or deprive our gene expression. These factors essentially control the trajectory of our success. We also talk about her different programs made to help deal with the issues that come with menopause like w

On this week’s episode of the Girlfriend Doctor Podcast, I had a wonderful conversation with Dr. David Jockers.

I’m sure that you’ve probably heard or seen something regarding the benefits of fasting but in this conversation, we discuss the details on how to ease into a fasting routine without causing getting burnt out too quickly. Food is just as addicting, if not more, than any substance out there, so we should be more careful on what we are ingesting into our bodies and at what time. Dr. Jockers also details how he does a 24-hour fast once a week and how blood sugar and insulin levels impact sex drive and hormones.<span style= "font-weigh

[4:20] Cynthia started attracting other women who felt like their needs weren’t being heard. She did a lot of work around nutrition and group pro

Learn why the female brain becomes stronger and better in the midlife, how to adapt and thrive during that time of change, and why we need to incorporate more compassion, community, and connection in our lives as we age.  [0:45] There is a physiology of mental health that is often ignored. There are changes to our brain that happen as we age and we need a comprehensive approach to healing. Biology and psychology have always both been fascinating for Dr. Anna, which is why she graduated with a double major in both fields. [4:30] To thrive you must honor your physiology. There is no mind/body dichotomy, they work together and rely on each other to make up you. [6:45] The Female Brain recently became a movie.

Instead of guessing, you need to test when it comes to your health. Barton Scott is on the podcast to talk about his struggle with brain fog and low energy, despite being a high level athlete in his youth and how he discovered the connection between minerals and optimal health.

Find out how to not only live longer but improve the quality of your life, by choosing to have more oxytocin moments and by embracing and recognizing the ones you love and who love you back. [0:20] It’s not just about the number of years in our lives, but our healthspan as well. We are destined for a long life and our quality of life is in our control. [0:40] Oxytocin is one of the leading factors to longevity in our lives. The love we feel in our lives is correlated to the most powerful rejuvenating hormone in our lives. Stress and cortisol is the opposite. When we don’t get a break from the stresses in our life we shorten our lives unnecessarily. [2:45] February is filled with messages of love, but if we’re not feeling love in our life, it can become a stressor. High stress and low oxytocin is the physiology of divorce.

Dr. Bindiya breaks down the impact of the hormone leptin and why so many people struggle with a weight loss plateau that they can’t breakthrough.

[0:20] Leptin is a largely unknown hormone but one of which everyone should be aware. Leptin is responsible for telling your brain that you have enough fat stored to fuel your body for calories at a normal rate. When leptin levels are high, that’s when you’re prone to food cravings, gaining weight, anxiety, and more. [3:00] We have been told for years that we should be snacking between meals, but when we do that it increases our insulin and blood sugar levels without much benefit. You should typically eat every 4 to 6 hours, and if your leptin resistance is

Sacrificing your sleep may no longer be a worthy option. You can be in your best shape at 50, but you need to focus on what you need to be healthy. [3:30] A healthy body burns fat and holds onto muscle. If you’re carrying around extra weight, it may be an indicator that you have a metabolic condition.

The world has a lot of variability and uncertainty right now so it’s hard to make detailed plans for the following year, but in some ways, that’s good because it forces you to focus on the present. [5:00] David’s new book is called Drop Acid. It specifically deals with uric acid and how we discovered it to be a central player in regulating metabolic health. It’s not only that uric acid just bec

Menopause and perimenopause shouldn’t be something you just power through, yet that’s the way that many women deal with their hormone or energy issues. There’s a better way, and it doesn’t involve being afraid of estrogen and hormone therapy. Dr. Shawn Tassone answers your questions on cancer, estrogen, hormones, and health, and talks about why the narrative matters in getting to the root cause of a patient’s problems. [3:05] Being a man in the arena of women's health gives him a different perspective. As the author of The Hormone Balance Bible, Shawn helps women transform their body and life during perimenopause and menopause. [4:10] Shawn found that if he could share stories of hormonal archetypes with his patients, it connects much better than just raw data. It gives women a starting point to get the information they are looking for and points them in the right direction to learn more. [5:50] Hormone issues can feel very isolating, like you’re not b

Learn why oxytocin is the most powerful hormone of all and how living a life of contribution is the best life you can have. [0:55] Community is healing. Being in a community increases oxytocin in the body which is the most powerful hormone responsible for the feeling of love and connection. [2:15] Our energy, thoughts, and emotions are held in certain parts of the body. We usually associate oxytocin with the heart, which is why heartbreak is a common and easily understood emotion. It’s a physical as well as an emotional experience. [3:45] Dr. Anna was in California last weekend where she spent some relaxing time at a spa. While she was there she met a chiropractor who helped Dr. Anna

[1:25] Dr. Stu discovered the thermogenic state in 2009 after working with a woman who came to him to lose weight.

Dr. Nicole Huffman is on the podcast to talk about the emotional arm of your health and how you can release the stress from your body that’s preventing you from living your life to its fullest.

Are you feeling crazy? It may just be your hormones talking.

Dr. Anna discusses two cases from recent history of medical interventions that were once approved for use with pregnant women, but turned out to have serious side effects, and explains why it’s important to make your own decisions regarding your health.  [0:05] Do no harm is part of the Hippocratic Oath that doctors take which essentially means that doctors are students of harm, and deeply understand the risks and benefits of medicines and procedures. [0:45] There have been a couple of interventions done in the past that were approved until we better understood the long-term consequences, but the initial push back on an intervention is often met with ridicule. [2:00] Dr. Anna recently published a Facebook post saying that pharmaceutical companies should be held liable for vaccine injuries which was met with not one, but two peo

Dr. Anna talks about turning 55 and the lessons she’s learned along the way.
