When you overeat carbohydrates, your blood sugar rises, and insulin removes the sugar from the blood. Insulin also allows sugar to be used as fuel in the cell. Due to insulin resistance, many high blood sugar symptoms are related to low blood sugar and low sugar inside the cell. Here are 7 high blood sugar warning signs. 1. Excessive urination Waking up to urinate at night signifies a blood sugar problem and even a prediabetic situation. When you have too much sugar in the blood, it's filtered by the kidneys and excreted in the urine. 2. Excessive thirst Excessive urination leads to water loss and excessive thirst. High blood sugar causes sodium retention, which your body tries to dilute. High blood glucose also contributes to potassium deficiency, which also increases thirst. 3. Skin changes Skin folds will often become darker due to excess glucose. 4. Brain fog and fatigue Many people have no idea this is a symptom of high blood sugar! High blood sugar starves the neurons. 5. Mood swings Irritability is often caused when your blood sugar that's too high goes too low. A ketogenic diet can significantly improve mood issues. 6. Cravings Cravings will typically be for sugar and salty carbs. 7. Blurry eyes The lens of the eye becomes swollen, and the inside of the eye becomes reddened. Fixing the diet and lowering carbohydrates could help eliminate symptoms of high blood sugar within weeks. You'll also want to increase glucagon to decrease insulin by consuming high-quality protein like red meat, fish, or eggs. An A1C test measures your blood sugar over 120 days. The higher the percentage of glycated hemoglobin you have, the more severe your diabetes is. If you're on keto or the carnivore diet, you may notice that your A1C test is still high. This is because these diets extend the life of the red blood cells.

What if we started seeing grief as a form of trauma—could it help us make sense of the confusing ways our mind and body react to loss? In this conversation, Debbie sits down with Meghan Riordan Jarvis, a psychotherapist who's spent her life helping people navigate the heartbreak of loss. She's here to talk about her new book, Can Anyone Tell Me? Essential Questions About Grief and Loss, and to share her personal and research-based wisdom on this tender subject. We look into the messy, complicated emotions that grief can bring—like anger, guilt, regret, and anxiety—and Megan offers simple, meaningful ways to cope. We also tackle the bigger picture: why we need more honest conversations about death and how we can show up better for each other in times of loss. We hope you'll join us for this meaningful conversation that might just give you a little clarity, hope, and comfort wherever you, or even the loved ones you are supporting, are on your grief journey.  Listen and Learn:  Why grief education is key to feeling less alone, less afraid, and truly understood How we can reconnect in the face of profound loss Loss, grief, and mourning: uncovering the nuanced definitions and how they shape our healing journeys How Meghan's two very contrasting losses shaped her approach to grief and healing The varying emotions of grief and why anger and anxiety might be more common than expected The shifting waves of loss, unexpected triggers, and lasting connections The idea of signs from loved ones Could the signs we receive from loved ones beyond death be more than just coincidence?

Small changes can have a powerful impact. Let this episode be your guide in moving from burnout to balance.

Let's talk about a hormone that's probably working overtime in your body without you even realizing it: cortisol.

But here's the catch—when cortisol stays elevated for too long, it can start wreaking havoc on your body. Are you suffering from adrenal fatigue?

For years I have struggled with the mean girl voice in my head during the week leading up to my period. Many women struggle with anxiety, irritability, sadness during this week and have suffered for years thinking this is normal. It's not normal and for many, it's quite preventible. In perimenopause, whatever symptoms you have been struggling with will be magnified, so finding a solution that can help with this challenging time of the month is game changing.   After trying the product myself, I had to have Jubilance on the podcast to share how they are making a massive impact in the mind of so many women when it comes to these emotional and mental symptoms of PMS.   Jubilance contains one active ingredient that is part of many metabolic reactions occurring naturally in the body. This ingredient, oxaloacetate, is important in energy production, glucose system support, and overall proper cellular functioning. In peer-reviewed clinical trials, just one month of Jubilance significantly relieved PMS-related anxiety, gloominess, irritability and stress. In response to the clinical trial results, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has allowed Jubilance to include the structure/function claim of “Oxaloacetate may help alleviate the mild to moderate psychological and/or behavioral symptoms associated with Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS).“   Tune In To Learn:   What is actually causing PMS symptoms Why PMS gets worse in perimenopause How one key ingredient can make a massive difference   Learn More About Jubilance Here:   Instagram: JubilanceforPMS1 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCr2lfpuBwnCjd5DgNTdjKw Website is www.Jubilance.com   Want to know if I can help or if functional testing and hormone coaching will help you achieve the energy, body and life that you want?   SCHEDULE A FREE 30 MINUTE CONSULTATION TO DISCUSS TESTING AND YOUR HORMONE AND HEALTH NEEDS NOW

The idea of “not doing enough” comes up every week with moms in therapy who feel like they aren't getting enough done on their to-do list, whether it's an actual list or a mental list in their minds. Let's explore this topic deeper. Show Highlights: The parenting to-do list increases exponentially as you become a new parent. We shouldn't discount ALL the things new parents do on a daily basis. Pressure from within and without brings unrealistic expectations that a mom should do “all the things.” Irritability, agitation, frustration, and negative self-judgment lead to questions like, “What's wrong with me?” Dealing with an overloaded and overwhelmed emotional state Compassionate reflection can be helpful in overcoming negative thought patterns. The importance of sleep (Sleep deprivation can get in the way of basic daily tasks.)

Ryan McKelley is a professor at the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse. He is at the forefront of men's mental health research and education. McKelley's expertise in clinical psychology, adds valuable insights to discussions on masculinity. His coaching focuses on men's emotional well-being. In this episode of the Men's Therapy podcast, host Marc Azoulay explores McKelley's journey. He shares McKelley's insights on modern masculinity. McKelley's personal story highlights the challenges many men encounter with masculinity. His experience reflects the complexities of these struggles. As he grew up, he experienced both traditionally masculine and feminine activities. Despite this, he felt pressure to conform to certain ideals. The expectations around him shaped his view of masculinity. He focuses on internal gender roles. Ryan says, "I was an athlete, but I wasn't in like the team baseball or football or basketball," he shares. "I think I was always even aware that those weren't even kind of as masculine sports go." McKelley became aware of gender expectations early in life. His struggles with depression deepened this awareness. These experiences motivated him to research men's mental health. "I suffered a pretty significant depressive episode in seventh grade," he reveals, "and probably about every 10 years... I would have benefited from seeking help." Unpacking Male Depression McKelley's research shows how men experience and express emotional distress. His work emphasizes the distinct challenges men face in dealing with their emotions. He explains, "Girls and women are socialized to internalize their mood symptoms... Men tend to externalize." This externalization can manifest as: Distraction through video games or overworking Substance use Irritability and anger Denial of emotional struggles "Nobody knew I was depressed," McKelley admits, reflecting on his own experiences. "I was a master at hiding it." This ability to mask depression is common among men. It often leads to a buildup of emotional distress that can have serious consequences. Challenges of Male Vulnerability McKelley focuses on the challenge many men have in showing vulnerability. He introduces the concept of the "male emotional funnel." He explains that societal expectations limit the emotions men feel comfortable expressing. "We all come to the world with a full range of human emotions," McKelley states. "And then through adolescent development, it's like a funnel at the end. There's only like a couple that we, society let them have." This restriction of emotional expression can lead to what McKelley calls "mask depression." Men become adept at hiding their emotional struggles, often at great personal cost. Redefining Masculinity McKelley advocates for a more flexible, or "malleable," approach to masculinity. He explains, "Masculinity has just gone in all these different directions... it changes based on all these different levers." This understanding allows for a more nuanced and compassionate view of men's experiences. He emphasizes the importance of teaching men mindfulness and self-compassion. He says, "Being able to experience physical sensations, thoughts, emotions, and then even our physical surroundings non-judgmentally and with curiosity." This approach can help men develop greater emotional intelligence and resilience. The Way Forward McKelley emphasizes the importance of a more compassionate approach to men's mental health. He argues that viewing emotional growth as bravery, not weakness, can encourage more men to improve themselves. "We need to figure out ways to develop that," he says. He refers to compassion and empathy for men's experiences. He advocates for teaching men self-compassion. This involves showing them how to apply self-kindness. And a sense of common humanity to themselves. "By doing this, men can better practice self-compassion," highlights McKelley. Conclusion Ryan McKelley's insights provide a guide for understanding the unique challenges men face today. His work helps address these issues. He promotes a flexible view of masculinity.

See all the Healthcasts at https://www.biobalancehealth.com/healthcast-blog On the last Heath cast #662 we talked about the choice of doing nothing when faced with symptoms of hormone deficiency and symptoms of aging, versus the choice to actively live a healthy life. I believe that concentrating on yourself as you age can save your lifestyle and or your life!  Preventing illness as you age is as important as paying your taxes! An unhealthy living plan without replacing deficient hormones can lead you on  a road to illness and early death.  If that doesn't motivate you, then consider yourself warned. Recently I saw a man in his late 70s who I had seen about 7 years before this.  He and his wife entered my office, and I could see that some of my medical predictions had come true.  This man had developed every disease I told him his blood work and physical self-predicted. Despite the treatment plan I gave him, he ignored me on diet, exercise, supplements, stopping smoking and drinking I gave him 7 years earlier.  He admitted that everything I told him would happen, did happen and now he is in constant pain, he is morbidly obese, and has trouble even walking.  He now has diabetes and has had a heart attack and 7 ER admissions for his heart since.  He did not do one thing I told him, except just recently he stopped drinking alcohol. He now is ready to live a healthy lifestyle however since he has so many diseases, he spends an enormous amount of money on medications and medical care.  The cost of care was his reason to ignore hormones, but he ignored my lifestyle advice as well.  Even though now a lifestyle change and testosterone pellets will improve his life, he still has done damage to his blood vessels and heart not to mention his joints and back.  These aging changes I cannot prevent, just stop the rapid progression. When you become our patient, we ask you a variety of questions that help us design a treatment plan, more accurately named a “longevity plan”. Symptoms of Testosterone, Estradiol and Thyroid deficiency: A combined list of symptoms of aging for men and women include: Loss of Testosterone Symptoms: ·      Loss of sex drive ·      Loss of erections, and morning erections ·      Loss of orgasms for women ·      Fatigue ·      Insomnia ·      Depression/anxiety attacks ·      Loss of strength and muscle mass ·      Frailty ·      Can't think clearly or remember names of things ·      Loss of motivation ·      Loss of efficiency at work ·      Weight gain ·      Belly fat increase ·      Sagging skin ·      Arthritis ·      Osteoporosis Loss of estradiol (women): ·      Hot flashes ·      Night sweats ·      Anxiety attacks ·      Irritability ·      Dry vagina ·      Painful intercourse ·      Sagging skin ·      Frontal balding ·      Urine loss ·      Dry skin ·      Shrinking vagina ·      Osteoporosis ·      Arthritis    Thyroid deficiency: ·      Hair loss ·      Fat gain ·      Fatigue ·      Depression ·      Feels cold all the time ·      Very dry skin ·      All body swelling ·      Constipation ·      High cholesterol ·      Low blood pressure and pulse These symptoms above can be treated and in treating them you will experience not only a lack of symptoms, but a longer healthier life. However, if you also change your lifestyle you can avoid the diseases of aging too! Through replacing your deficient hormones, add only individually chosen supplements and develop a healthy whole food eating plan, with 3-7 days a week of exercise (1 hour/ session).    What do I mean? What is a healthy Lifestyle? ·      If you smoke STOP! ·      If you Drink more than 15 alcoholic drinks a week, then stop, If you aren't addicted to alcohol, you should decrease your drinking to < or = 7 drinks a week. ·      Exercise 30-60 minutes a day (consecutively) ·      Throw out all the simple carbs in your kitchen: all cereals and granola, use olive oil to cook and no vegetable oils, Processed dry food in boxes or cans should be donated to charity. ·      Buy fresh fruit, fresh vegetables, cheese yogurt, fresh or frozen meat, fish chicken, turkey for meals at home. ·      Sourdough bread is the best choice in breads—it has no gluten but still has carbohydrates, so small amounts are advised. ·      Do something you love every day ·      Look for opportunities to have fun You CAN turn your bad genes off through a healthy lifestyle!  Now we know even your genes can be combatted through healthy living. The diseases of aging can be adjusted or avoided.  When thinking about what your risks might be, remember that Family history is a broad and faulty way to determine your risk, but genetic testing is a better way to determine your risk of disease that is found in in your chromosomes and genes. The combination of your genes are uniquely yours. Knowing what your genes are can guide you to an individual healthy lifestyle for avoiding disease and living a long life.   We offer this service for our patients who want to know what the perfect diet and lifestyle plan is.  It is called the   Nutrigen test is optional but a great idea if you are trying to renovate your life! This saliva test (no needles) can determine the genetics you inherited from your ancestors.  We then share the information with you and develop a lifestyle plan that includes lifetime changes in eating to decrease carbohydrates from grains and sugar, increase protein, and remove as many processed foods as possible. The Nutrigen test tells you what genes you inherited that impacts your health, but it doesn't tell me whether you have turn any of your bad genes off or your bad genes on! We offer that test to our patients who are trying to lose fat or just reframe their life so they can live more productively and as much without disease as possible, Now if you aren't convinced that you need to replace your hormones with testosterone plus estradiol if you are a postmenopausal woman, or if you figure you will   Does a future of having Alzheimer's disease strike your panic button enough to change what you eat and how much you exercise, and to replace your Testosterone with Pellets?  Or is it losing a limb from diabetes? Being unable to talk from a Stroke?  Would losing your ability to move around as you do today from a Stroke or heart attack make you scared enough to value your health and clean up your lifestyle?  Or would the prospect of never having sex again be the trigger that causes you to be as careful with you own health, body,  and mind, preserving it for the rest of your life? Medical care is not just about fixing the sick through medications or surgery anymore, although that is the paradigm we have all grown up in.  That dated belief may have dominated our  belief  about what medical care can do for us and how it works because until recently medical experts didn't understand how diseases sprouted from a bad lifestyle, or because we were taught that our genes determine our health and there is nothing we can do about it…..but we now know that leading a healthy lifestyle, using food as fuel and not entertainment, and being moderate in everything from food, to alcohol to exercise is the key to a long healthy life. New information in the last 20 years has come to light  revealing that an individual can turn off bad genes through a healthy lifestyle…. Your genetics do not  dictate your fate, but it is your behavior that dictates the diseases you will suffer fromwith through the last half of your life  and eventually die from. Let's talk about the most dangerous lifestyle choices that you can make. You must think about your body as a luxury car that requires a lot of maintenance, the best quality gas to fuel it, and loving care every day to maintain its value and performance.  Our bodies are a thousand times more complicated than the highest- performance car, and I contend that the most beneficial maintenance you can do is to think about your health every day especially when you are presented with behavioral choices.  For instance, when you wake up you should stretch and make sure your muscles are not spasmed.  YThe you should think about the two most important choices you will make all day, “When will I work out for an hour?” and “What shall I eat today?”. .  Exercise is key to managing your insulin sensitivity and blood sugar, protecting you from diabetes and heart disease.  Why would you avoid this inexpensive protection from these deadly diseases?   Planning what you will eat that day (or for the next week) should include  healthy, non-processed foods and drinks with plenty of water and protein and limited carbohydrates from grains especially from wheat. But you counter my suggestion ,” Wwhat should I do when everyone around me is overeating processed foods and drinking alcohol and sugared soda?”.  My answer is, “Stop and think! Do you drive over a cliff because the guy in front of you does? No!  Be brave and don't make a scene., just choose to eat and drink in a healthy manner…if that is not available, leave and find the food and drink your body needs!”  You are no longer a teenager when all the mistakes we make are “forgiven” by our bodies.  That stops working after age 20!   I think you should look at taking care of yourself like being engaged in working toward a goal, whether it be in sports, climbing the corporate ladder, getting a raise or getting your degree.  Health is a goal that will repay you throughout your life. I no longer work in OBGYN not because I didn't enjoy it, or it wasn't profitable enough, I stopped running around with my hair on fire, stressed out and exhausted without adequate sleep or nutrition because it was bad for me!  My medical practice literally made me sick!  I gained weight, felt terrible, looked old, was crabby and depressed, so I made a choice to make my health a priority and a priority for my patients. In terms of how  my medical practice changed…from doing insurance paid medicine which is paid for the patient by someone else I was daily faced with patients who didn't value my advice and didn't follow it!  I now have a medical practice where patients pay for their care themselves.  There is something about paying for something that makes you value it more! Instead of seeing patients yearly that I gave the same advice I give to my BioBalance patients today and repeating myself year after year without my patients making any progress, I now recommend lifestyle changes and treat my patients with replacement testosterone and estradiol pellets and they immediately feel better and follow my advice! I am blessed to watch my patients achieve health by changing their hormones, diet, exercise, changing medications and taking supplements to round out the nutrition offered by their food choices. The one most important health goal should be weight loss so you can achieve your ideal weight while you maintain your muscle mass. That change will take effort and sacrifice and if you are over 40 you will need testosterone to make this happen!    Here are the diseases that are caused by obesity: ·      CANCER! All kinds! ·      Diabetes-Type II ·      Heart disease, Myocardial infarction and stroke ·      Alzheimer's disease ·      Autoimmune diseases ·      Endometriosis ·      Arthritis and joint replacement ·      Hypertension and kidney disease ·      Immune deficiency Are you afraid of getting any of these diseases?  What is your most terrifying disease that keeps you awake at night?  Any of these in the list above?   I have always been fearful of Alzheimer's Disease and stroke because not being able to think and speak is my biggest fear!  I have gone so far as to have genetic tests for Alzheimer's Dx and I have 1 of the 2 genes that cause this devastating condition. However, because I have taken estradiol and Testosterone pellets since I was 47, my chance of getting this disease has been delayed 20 years.  Other factors that increase my risk for stroke and dementia are inflammation from being overweight, eating a high carb diet, lack of exercise, hypertension, poor neurotransmitters from a poor diet and bad gut bacteria.  One by one I have changed my lifestyle to decrease these risk factors. If I can do this, you can!  You don't have a harder work schedule than I have had or less time to choose foods to eat.  I choose to turn down more than one alcoholic beverage, to take my own healthy snacks when I travel and at my office.

PT on ICE Daily Show. This is Dr. Jordan Berry, Lead Faculty for Cervical Spine and Lumbar Spine Management. Today we're chatting about a topic called Low Irritability Equals Function First. Okay, so I hope you're having an awesome Thursday. We're about to break down just a concept that I think matters when you're thinking about the novice versus the expert clinician and how they're efficient during their initial evaluation. This key concept of when you're thinking about going into the objective exam and you know the irritability is low or at least moderately low, we're always gonna test the functional movements first. Okay, so a few concepts that we talk about during our live cervical and lumbar spine management courses, when we're thinking about the objective exam and what the expert clinician does different as opposed to the novice, one of those things is that they have a very long, detailed, subjective exam, and they have a short, clear, and crisp objective exam. and how as you gain more experience and more pattern recognition, typically that will sway even more lopsided towards being a longer subjective while having a shorter and more dialed objective exam. And then another concept we talk about is that when the patient irritability is low, you have to be really aggressive during the physical exam testing in order to recreate the symptoms, right? Because if you under test, then you might not actually recreate those familiar symptoms to know that the treatment that you're about to apply is going to work and that you're moving in the right direction. And so, one way that you can accomplish both of those things, right, with keeping a short, clear and crisp objective exam, and then making sure that you're going to be aggressive during the physical exam testing when the irritability is low, is always thinking about testing the functional movements first. Okay, so let me give you a clinical example with this, and then we'll break it down and talk about why it matters and why it's important. So, Imagine that you're in an initial evaluation and you've done your body chart and you know that the symptoms are somewhere around the area of the lumbar spine, like we'll say low lumbar into the right glute wrapping around towards the right hip, maybe even like anterior lateral right hip as well. But you know there's some vague diffuse symptoms that are somewhere in the lumbar spine and somewhere in the hip as well. And during this objective, you also gather that an aggravating factor is squatting anything over 95 pounds. And so day one, during the initial eval, you know you're gonna be trying to differentially diagnose if the symptoms are coming from the lumbar spine, or if they're coming from the hip, or maybe both. But primarily, again, the initial evaluation, day one, during the objective exam, we're trying to tease out What is the primary symptom generator? We have to nail that down day one. What a novice would do is as they're going into the objective exam, they would likely just hammer through a battery of tests for the lumbar spine and the hip. So they'd probably have that person hop up and you're going through all the basic stuff, right? You're going through active range of motion, your joint exam, your segmental exam, potentially neurodynamics, your test and hit PROM and strength testing and palpation. You're essentially just working down this battery of tests to try to see if anything recreates the familiar symptoms. And so let's say that you go through that 12, 15 minutes of objective exam testing and you figure out that hip passive range of motion, like internal rotation or fader recreates that familiar hip pain. And so now we have an asterisk sign, right? We've got our, um, let's, let's call it internal rotation is what we're going to retest and we've recreated the familiar symptoms. So you've done a good job, right? You haven't done anything wrong, but I would argue that that is not expert level because number one, it took us a fairly long time to get to that answer of what is recreating the symptoms. And honestly, the patient doesn't really care about any of the stuff that you just tested. So, an expert here is going to look at function first. So, we might do some of the same objective testing that we did just a minute ago with the novice, but the first thing that we're going to do if the irritability is low to moderate is look at function. So, if the subjective exam we found out that anything over a 95-pound squat recreates the familiar symptoms, well, I'm going to look at a 95-pound squat. So I get that person out in the gym, maybe we do a warm-up set, and then we load up to 95, and right when they drop down, right when the patient drops down into the bottom of the squat, they get that familiar hip pain. Now, right then, you have one of your asterisk signs, but we could also modify that movement or try to tease out in real time if we can change the symptoms or affect them in any way. So let's say that person drops down into the squat, bottom of the squat, they get their symptoms, and you grab a big mobility band. wrap it around the hip, and give a big lateral distraction, a lateral pull, while they go down into a second rep of the squat, and the symptoms are completely gone. So think about what you've now done. Number one, you have a better asterisk sign, I would argue, because it's something that the patient actually cares about. It's functional, it's very easy to retest, but you've also clued yourself in on your differential diagnosis. Because if I can do something to the hip, right, do a self-mob to the hip or do a lateral distraction for the hip and immediately change the symptoms that we got with squatting, then I know when I go back to the table and I do my more traditional objective exam testing, I'm going straight to the hip. So maybe on day one now, I can leave all of the lumbar spine testing and maybe hold it off until day two. because now I know that I can affect the hip. Now we go back to the table. We do some of the objective testing and I go right towards PROM and I jam that hip up into IR and fader and recreate those familiar symptoms. Boom. Now we've got our two objective asterisk signs. We've got one passive range of motion. We've got one that's functional, the squat. So now when I apply it to some sort of treatment, I've got two ways that I can retest. SUMMARY So number one, why this matters so much of testing function first when irritability is low is differential diagnosis. It's just a fast way to identify oftentimes where the symptoms are coming from or at least cluing you in as to what direction you need to go in instead of just testing all the lumbar spine stuff and all the hip stuff. Now I've clued myself in that I'm probably going to focus on hip day one. So the second thing why it's important is efficiency. We always say during objective exam testing, as little as possible, as much as necessary. So I only want to test the stuff that's absolutely necessary so I'm efficient, but also I don't risk flaring up the patient with doing a bunch of tests and measures that aren't necessary to begin with. And if I can eliminate a few things right off the bat from that functional testing, why not start there? And then lastly, it's way better buy-in. It's way better buy-in. So day one, you're always trying to have the patient walk out thinking, man, I'm finally in the right spot. This person totally gets my issue. And they're definitely going to be walking out saying that if you're first off testing the functional stuff, the stuff that they actually care about that you pick up in the subjective. No patient cares about hip IR, cares about lumbar AROM, cares about palpation. They don't care about that. They care about the thing that they want to get back to that they love. And if you're including that in the physical exam, the buy-in is going to skyrocket. So think about that over the next week or so. About maybe changing the order of your physical exam if this is not typically how you order things. When the irritability is low to moderate and you pick that up during the subjective exam, then when you go into the objective exam, you make sure that you're testing function first. It's gonna help with differential diagnosis, it's gonna help you be efficient, and you're gonna get way better buy-in. All right, so think about that this week. Next week in the clinic, I'd love to hear feedback on that as well. Just to leave you with a few upcoming courses that we have with cervical and lumbar, this coming weekend, we've got cervical management in Oviedo, Florida, few seats left for that. And then also this weekend, we've got lumbar spine management in San Luis Obispo in California. And then coming up August 3rd and 4th, we've got cervical in Cincinnati, Ohio. And then also August 3 through 4, we've got lumbar spine management in Aspinwall, Pennsylvania. All right. Thanks so much for listening. Have an awesome Thursday in the clinic. And if you're going to be a cervical or lumbar spine management course coming up soon, hopefully I will see you there. All right. Have a great day. Thank you.

On today's episode of the Balancing Chaos Podcast, Kelley sits down with board certified naturopathic endocrinologist, clinical sexologist, and prominent leader in women's medicine, Dr. Jolene Brighten. Dr. Brighten is dedicated to uncovering the root cause of hormonal imbalances to help empower women worldwide to take control of their health and their hormones. Her practice is rooted in naturopathic and functional medicine to help women discover and treat the root cause of their illness, rather than simply treating symptoms making her clinical motto "I don't heal my patients, I teach them to heal themselves".Through their discussion Kelley and Dr. Brighten discuss the role of lifestyle factors, such as nutrition, exercise, toxin exposure and stress management, in hormonal balance and overall health. Dr. Brighten shares her expertise on a variety of topics from the truth about the birth control pill to how to manage the symptoms of perimenopause and menopause and misconceptions about adrenal fatigue and autoimmune conditions. Tune in to learn about hormonal regulation and how to optimize female health at every stage of life! To connect with Kelley click HERETo book a lab review click HERETo connect with Dr. Brighten click HERETo get Dr. Brighten's supplements click HERE
