Podcast appearances and mentions of Michael Murray

It's the first gardening day of the season on The Signal. Join host Adam Walsh and gardener extraordinaire Michael Murray as they take calls and talk about how to get all systems growing in this spring of 2025. Guest: Michael Murray of Murray's Garden Centre 

We all know that eating a balanced diet with lots of whole foods helps us to feel better and more energised, so why can we find it so hard to do? My guest in this episode is Elizabeth Dall, a food freedom expert and certified women's health and wellness coach who helps women create sustainable, healthy habits that lead to body confidence and transformation. Her passion is to help people to create a more balanced, empowered approach to food, body confidence and change. Elizabeth kindly shares practical strategies for creating healthy habits and achieving a lifestyle of health, without restriction, which can be adapted for our own unique lifestyles. We discuss the role our mindset plays in holding us back, how to quieten some of the noise around food, particularly on social media, breaking free from the all or nothing mindset, mindful eating and how to stay consistent with our goals. Elizabeth offers really practical advice and reminds us that change is manageable.The lovely herb sage is our store cupboard staple for this episode!Resources"The Woman of Wellness Podcast": https://www.awomanofwellness.com/podcastFree mindful eating meditation: https://awomanofwellness.com/foodconfidenceInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/awomanofwellness/Website: www.awomanofwellness.comhttps://www.eatingwell.com/recipes/20692/ingredients/herbs-spices/herbs/sage/The Encylopaedia of Healing Foods by Dr Michael Murray, Dr Joseph Pizzorno with Lara Pizzorno MA, LMTMusic composed by cascreativearts, copyright Lyn Sharkey Nutrition.

According to the Cambridge dictionary, “longevity means living for a long time or remaining popular and useful for a long time.” Of course, I would like to live a long life, as long as my loved ones anyway, and I would like to be independent and happily busy for as long as possible. We know that nutrition, exercise, sleep and wellbeing are important but is there another ingredient in this secret sauce for living with as much vitality as possible, for as long as possible?Scientific studies show that being happy and grateful has a massive positive impact on our physical health. But there is another way of thinking which can also contribute and that is being curious. According to an article by George Lee (link in notes) “by encouraging our desire to seek out new knowledge, ask questions, and explore the world around us, curiosity may help to improve our memory, reduce the risk of chronic disease, and increase our resilience in the face of stress and adversity.”Miles Spencer is, in his own words, a curious guy from Pittsburgh. His day job has been to help create over 1,100 jobs while founding, financing, building and exiting three digital media companies. Prior to that, he was a Venture Principal at Capital Express (register.com), hosted MoneyHunt on PBS (pre- SharkTank), led over 1,500 people across 14 miles of open sea on kayak, and trekked 1,100 miles through the deserts of Saudi, Jordan and Syria… and A Line in the Sand ended up an Amazon Bestseller in the Middle East.Miles joins me on the podcast to chat about his adventure and his adventurous spirit which be believes has helped him to remain vital, active and interested in life into his seventh decade.

In this conversation about the power of play, I chat to Deirdre O'Reilly who is a Child and Adolescent Psychotherapist, who specialises in Play Therapy. Deirdre tells us why play is so important and explains the structure of a consultation, including the initial work with parents. We mention the many challenges and issues that might arise in family situations which communication through play might support, and Deirdre generously shares her own experience. The powers of play are fascinating!The store cupboard staple for this episode will help to keep the doctor away - The good old fashioned apple

It is a fact that what we think can impact our physical health, and so this episode explores the benefits of two more tools, which therapists can use to support clients, neuro linguistic programming and emotional freedom technique. Our conversation also covers mobile phone use, how we talk to ourselves and the necessity of a good nights sleep (which Pauline says is the alarm bell for mental health). My guest on this episode is Pauline Clarke, Mindnua and she has trained in the following practices and therapies:• Mindfulness Facilitator & Counselling• M.B.C.T. (Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy)• Reiki Master Teaching• N.L.P. (Neuro Linguistic Programming) • Solution Based Counselling• E.F.T. (Emotional Freedom Technique) • Neuroscience Coaching• Meditation Coaching• Trauma Healing She regularly talks to groups of all ages and is a great advocate for mindfulness and mental health in Co Cavan, so I know that you will enjoy my chat with Pauline Clarke.P.S.

In this episode of Alimentary, I have a lovely chat with a philosopher, who has spent years exploring the ethical, environmental, and social implications of our food choices. In new book Hungry, Beautiful Animals, author Matthew C. Halteman aims to transform our perception of vegan living by focusing on what it promotes rather than what it restricts. Now, I am not a vegan myself but I am concerned about our food chain and love animals so, this was a really interesting conversation. Some of the perspectives that Matthew shares, we can absolutely apply to other areas of our lives.His book is a heartfelt, humane, and humorous exploration of how going vegan has brought abundance into his life. The book is a love letter to life itself in all forms, and presents an imaginative vision of a true, beautiful, and good world that motivates and sustains our deepest desires to be well. It's not about shame and blame, but about finding joy in the journey. Matthew is professor of philosophy at Calvin University in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and a fellow at the Oxford Centre for Animal Ethics in the UK. He is the author of Compassionate Eating as Care of Creation and co-editor of Philosophy Comes to Dinner: Arguments about the Ethics of Eating. He brings a philosopher's precision and a dog-lover's joyto explaining how human connection, humor, and forgiveness (for oneself and others) has been a part of his journey. So, I hope that you will enjoy my conversation with Matthew C Halteman. The store cupboard staple for this episode is Broccoli, which I can't believe hasn't been featured before!!

Any sort of gastro intestinal issue, even if non-fatal, can really impact our quality of life and our enjoyment of our food. Gastro oesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is one of these conditions which is on the rise. In this episode of Alimentary! I had a really interesting discussion about GERD with Lauren O'Connor. We talked about the difference between occasional heartburn or reflux and GERD, and some of the surprising symptoms which might indicate an issue. We also chatted about lactose intolerance which can be a driver if not managed, the impact of stress, timing of meals and how a personalized approach works best. It was great to hear a perspective from someone who is not only a professional in this field, but also has dealt with this condition herself.My guest Lauren O'Connor MS,RDN, RYT is a private-practice dietitian, five-time cookbook author, and freelance writer with a passion for gut health, fitness, and culinary nutrition. She is a regular contributor to health and wellness publications with numerous articles in Health and Livestrong. On her website, NutriSavvyHealth.com, she shares evidence-based nutrition advice and a wide variety of gut-healthy recipes for everyday living. In addition to all of this, Lauren is a yoga teacher and enjoys hiking in her local hills. She is also a member of the community singing group Band of Singers.

Recently I read an article from 2020 which noted that colo-rectal cancer diagnosis in young adults was on the increase and has been for some time. So, in this episode we are taking a deeper dive into bowel health, from discussing the health of our cells right through to the importance of bowel screening and what is involved in that. My guest is Thanasie Kaldanis, who has been a qualified nurse for 20 years. He initially worked in acute and emergency settings and for the last 12 years he has worked as a cancer data registrar, with National Cancer Registry Ireland. Thanasie is also the Health 7 Wellbeing Officer with local GAA Club Cornafean in Cavan. He is passionate about bringing people together to create a healthy and thriving community for everyone, In addition to bowel health, we discuss the importance of younger generations attitude to food, challenges to changing habits and how we can encourage a healthier lifestyle at community level. Towards the end, he explains how bowel screening in Ireland is carried out, what is involved and why not to fear it. The store cupboard staple for this episode is Yoghurt and natural 9dairy or soya) is best. If you think you don't like the taste, listen in for some simple ideas to incorporate it in everyday ways.

In this episode of Alimentary! I am delighted to welcome Penny Sharkey (and yes we are related!) to discuss how Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) can be used either by itself or with other therapeutic tools in therapy to support mental health and wellbeing. Penny is a professional counsellor and psychotherapist, and a member of the Irish Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (IACP). She holds a First-Class Honours Degree in Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy, a Degree in Social Studies, and a master's Certificate in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). Currently, she works in a private practice in Celbridge and Maynooth, in Co. Kildare. From an early age, Penny developed a curiosity in how the power of human connection and the resilience of the human spirit worked. This passion was sparked by witnessing a friend struggle with severe anxiety and depression and seeing how effective therapy was in transforming their life. That experience motivated her to help others navigate their own challenges and find healing. In her practice, she strives to create a warm, accepting, and honest environment where clients feel safe to explore their feelings. Her therapeutic approach is flexible and client-centered, emphasizing empathy and tailored interventions to meet each person's unique needs. She believes in the power of active listening, congruence, and guidance to help clients discover meaning, build resilience, and achieve personal growth. She primarily works with Person-Centred Therapy, Choice Theory/Reality Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to support clients on their journey towards well-being. She said that it has been so fulfilling to work in supporting those who are seeking support, helping them find their own strength and clarity in times of distress.

Michael Murray drove his newly purchased car through the Tim Dahle dealership in Sandy, Utah, after claiming undisclosed issues with the vehicle. Citing financial stress, he demanded a $4,000 refund, which he says the dealership denied. The dealership claims they offered solutions, but tensions escalated. Employees were left terrified by the incident, which highlights critical gaps in consumer complaint handling and dealership safety. Murray now faces felony charges and urges others to find better ways to address grievances.Buy me a coffee! https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/partsmanagerproLink to the featured video:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mzx-pHqE-s4&t=7shttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aFyeWdZPAfsPlease remember to like, share and leave your comments.Videos are uploaded weekly.Fair use is a use permitted by copyright statute that might otherwise be infringing.

Actor Chris Jackson makes his first appearance on the podcast. This Broadway and film actor is currently in the cast of the new indie film "Boundary Waters". In this lyrical coming-of-age film, 12-year-old Michael Murray relishes the carefree joys of early adolescence – girls and friends – until his mom has a black eye and a busted lip. Michael is desperate to know what happened, but his father Brian avoids him, Granny (Carole Kane) shushes him, and his usually resilient mother can't get out of bed. While his family weighs the cost of keeping secrets against the price of telling the truth, Michael is determined to fix what happened as he tries to become a man in a world where men cause harm. "Boundary Waters" has its next screening at the Dances with Films festival in New York City on Friday, December 6 at 7:45. https://youtu.be/f1PUjmcwjKk Also, Danish actor turned filmmaker Nicolaj Kopernikus makes his first appearance as well.

I've been thinking a lot about the importance of connecting the value of the arts to everyday citizens and their own connection to creativity, whatever that might be. I think it's something we should be talking about now, not only within our communities and within the arts sector, but outside of as well : talking about the value of the arts to feelings of belonging and connection and the ability to build bridges that the arts uniquely have. - kelly langgard, june 5, 2024 imagining in public - cultural leadership in a changing world panelI agree with Kelly Langgard that the arts have the capacity to build bridges and deepen feelings of belonging and the arts also have a lot of influence, and responsibility, in our changing world, as you are about to hear. So welcome to a special episode of the conscient podcast, brought to you by the Public Imagination Network in collaboration with Mass Culture - Mobilisation culturelle.You're about to hear a 90 minute conversation on the theme of ‘cultural leadership in a changing world' that took place on June 5th 2024 on Zoom with about 100 participants from across Canada. But first, who is who. The conversationalists were Public Imagination Network Fellows Devyani Saltzman, Evalyn Parry and Shannon Litzenberger alongside Kelly Langgard, Director and CEO of the Toronto Arts Council and Michael Murray, CEO of the Ontario Arts Council | Conseil des arts de l'Ontario.Now you might know that the Public Imagination Network is a group of leading artists and thinkers who are passionate about creative responses to issues of public governance and social justice and you can hear more about the origins of the Public Imagination Network, also known as PIN, in my March 28th, 2024 conversation with Shannon Litzenberger, e160 shannon litzenberger - a culture of collective thriving, of this podcast. This panel was co-hosted with Mass Culture - Mobilisation culturelle, which is an arts support organization that strives to harness the power of research to learn and generate new insights, enabling the arts community to be strategic, focused and adaptive. Mass Culture is led by Robin Sokoloski who was my guest on this podcast in episode 61 from 2021 and also will be my guest for a second conversation this summer so stay tuned for that. I suspect we will talk about… leadership, climate change, more than human beings and more.So what is cultural leadership? Shannon Litzenberger offered this definition during the conversation:I think about leadership as our ability to respond generatively to what a moment is asking of us in service of collective thriving. So it's got a lot of layers to it… It's about our ability to respond. What are we responding to? How are we attuning to a moment? Are we just seeing what we're conditioned to see? Are we attuned to what's in the foreground : the arrangements in the background that are producing the condition that we're inside of? And are our decisions, are our responses, are they in service of collective thriving? To me, this is the big moment of relational turn that leadership needs to understand. And I think this is a good point of departure with an emphasis on whether we are 'in tune' with this moment.To the organizers credit, this event was not a one-way conversation. The audience was invited to participate through a series of zoom chat storms. I had never done this before but it's basically when comments and questions are sent at once at the end of a series of presentations.It was quite overwhelming but a lot of fun to read such a rich array of options and responses all at once and you'll hear during the episode quotes from comments and responses from the conversationalists.You can also read the rich array of participant ‘chat' comments at the end of the episode notes below. To make this recording easier to access, I've divided it into 6 parts, each divided by a soundscape composition from 1998 of mine called Au dernier vivant les biens.00:00 conscient podcast introduction and context8:49 Evalyn Parry, Shannon Litzenberger and Devyani Saltzman introduction19:28 What do we need to hold onto and leave behind?28:54 Practices of leadership : what new leadership capacities will support a transition away from a corporate, hyper-industrialized system?45:10 Flux, turmoil and the role of institutions : how do we stay in an ethical relationship to a world in distress?54:55 Questions and comments from the audienceTo be honest my only critique of this conversation is that they did not speak directly about the climate emergency or the ecological crisis, which are the main areas of concern of this podcast however Evalyn Parry did note at the end of the session that we should have a separate session on this topic and interweave it into other conversations, which I believe is in the works. And I think it's good to have multiple and contrasting conversations about these complex issues - be it leadership, capacity, social justice, societal collapse and so on - because they are all interconnected and all require our attention but maybe not all at once. So what I retained most specifically from this conversation on cultural leadership is that the arts not only have the capacity to build bridges and help us make connections and relations, but the arts also provide a positive vision of other worlds, other ways of being, while offering a reality check about our changing world. And dialogue, as well as listening, within the arts sector and beyond, are key to moving forward, so I would like to thank the organizers, conversationalists and participants in this session for sharing their wisdom and passion and I hope to do this again soon. Note: An edited version of the chat from this session is available here.  Please note that participants in this session have consented to have this summary of the chat shared as part of this podcast episode.

Michael Murray, Chief Executive of North Tipperary Development Company discusses their outreach programme for refugees and asylum seekers in Roscrea.

Michael Murray, who was 44 years old at the time of the sting, engaged in online conversations with a decoy he believed to be a 13-year-old girl named "Michelle". In an attempt to deceive her, Murray lied about his age, claiming to be 32 years old. Despite living only six minutes away from the sting house, Murray quickly steered the conversation towards romance, dating, and ultimately, sex. After chatting with the decoy for two and a half hours, Murray decided to go to the house for a dinner from McDonald's, with the intention of engaging in sexual activity. Upon arriving at the sting house, Murray encountered Chris Hansen already in the midst of a conversation with Jeremy Keister. Decoy Casey Mauro ushered Murray inside, who was seen carrying a bag of McDonald's food and sporting a smile on his face. However, upon entering, he was met with Hansen, who invited him to sit down and join the conversation.

Navy and Marine Corps veterans discuss the indispensable role of their chaplain — and why priests are so desperately needed in the military(0:03) Canton native Deacon Matthew Kurt, a seminarian studying for the priesthood at Sacred Heart Major Seminary, plans to serve as a chaplain in the U.S. military once he's ordained. He describes his formation on military bases and why he's pursuing a ministry among America's front-line soldiers — a ministry desperately in need of priests.(5:04) Lt. Col. Michael Murray describes a memorable encounter with his chaplain, Msgr. Tim Hogan, while deployed in Iraq. He was about to be sent out on a mission with a high degree of danger, and needed confession.(11:20) Msgr. Hogan, a priest of the Archdiocese of Detroit and former U.S. Navy chaplain, relays his vocation story — a story that started at a high school graduation party. Unlike Deacon Kurt's, Msgr. Hogan's story started with the military, and continued when he discovered a calling to the priesthood later as an enlisted officer. (14:12) In 1985, the Archdiocese for the Military Services invites Msgr. Hogan to consider becoming a military chaplain. He describes the high stakes of chaplaincy, and the day-to-day role of a spiritual father to soldiers in harm's way.(21:03) Captain Julie Liotta, a former combat engineer officer with the Marine Corps for 2003-07, describes her encounter with Msgr. Hogan, who was overseeing the rebuilding of a chapel on base in Iraq that was damaged by incoming fire. (26:59) Liotta describes the lasting impact Msgr. Hogan had on her faith. She and Murray describe the great need for military chaplains — especially Catholic chaplains — considering a drastic shortage of those ministering to soldiers whose lives are on the line. Msgr. Hogan recounts a story of a conversation with a Marine who said he hadn't seen a priest in nine months of deployment. (34:20) Liotta and Murray talk about how much of a difference chaplains make for the men and women in uniform, and put the shortage of chaplains into perspective.Reporting by Daniel Meloy; narration by Fr.

In today's episode I get to introduce you to my friend, colleague, and mentor Dr. Tori Hudson. Dr. Tori Hudson has been in practice as a Naturopathic Doctor for almost 40 years in Oregon. She is a nationally recognized naturopathic physician, speaker, educator, researcher, clinician and the first woman in the United States to become a full professor of naturopathic medicine. She is also the author of the Women's Encyclopedia of Natural Medicine: Alternative Therapies and Integrative Medicine for Total Health and Wellness, and has served as a Medical Director, Associate Academic Dean, and Academic Dean at the National University of Natural Medicine (NUNM). Most recently, she has released her new book: The Menopause Companion. In addition to founding and running her own clinic, A Woman's Time, Dr. Hudson is the founder and co-director of the Naturopathic Education and Research Consortium (NERC), a non-profit organization for accredited naturopathic residencies. She currently serves as the program director for the Institute of Women's Health and Integrative Medicine. Dr. Hudson also co-founded Vitanica, a supplement company offering formulations based on her decades of clinical experience. Today we talk about women's health later in life and how we can help women in new ways using a naturopathic approach and natural medicine. How Has Women's Healthcare Evolved Over the Last 20-25 Years? There's been a considerable shift in menopause management. Specifically, the rise and fall, and rise again, of menopausal hormone therapy. Natural medicine started to gain more recognition in the late 80s'. Dr. Michael Murray was very influential in bringing to light the botanical medicine research out of Europe and other parts of the world. Dr. Tori attributes to him the initiation of an awareness of the world of botanical medicine research and the influence it has had on naturopathic practice and the development of integrated physicians. The shift began in using supplements to both reduce the risk of disease and treat disease. Women's health in particular is seeing an immense expansion of options, which can be fantastic, but also more confusing to navigate. People are now able to research different approaches online and they're able to access different practitioners. So, women are more likely to say “I want something different” or “I don't just want a cookie cutter suggestion”. Today, patients are more informed and have more opportunities to be informed. They come more often with their own thoughts, ideas, and opinions. Most the time that can lead to a collaborative process of determining their treatment plan. Women today have a lot more tools to help themselves. They have new ways to get what they need from their healthcare providers, and they have a lot more ability to question if they really need a treatment or procedure. Dr. Tori loves when a patient comes in and asks for a second opinion. Recently, she had a patient asking her if she really needed a particular surgery for her bladder and she was able to reassure her that surgery was the necessary next step. Naturopathic doctors are trained to recognize the value of conventional medicine and how to incorporate that into a natural approach and a naturopathic medicine context. It's important to recognize that every paradigm has its strengths, and every paradigm has its weaknesses. That's what is unique about the modern naturopathic physician - we can really help patients navigate the best opportunities for their healthcare. Naturopathic Medicine as an Individualized Approach for Menopause Perimenopause starts at least a decade before the period ends and then comes post menopause. So, for women living till their mid-80's it's really most of their lives. It's a lot of years of our lives to be navigating hormone shifts, and potential symptoms and health issues, and women really do need help navigating that. Especially because there's still not enough research, and the information that is available is not always consistent and can be confusing. Dr. Tori reminds us that there's rarely a one size fits all approach, which is the beauty of naturopathic medicine. We try to individualize the approach for each person. If there are 10 different women who have hot flashes, there's going to be some recommendations that are common for them all, but there's also the nuance of suggestions that match for the rest of their health. So, hot flashes occur in a context of: does the patient have arthritis, what's their risk for diabetes, do they have high blood pressure, what's their risk for Alzheimer's? There is the quality-of-life issues which can be fairly simple to resolve, and then there's the disease prevention issues and the disease treatment issues which need to be addressed. A naturopathic doctor should help you look at the big picture and then help gather the information to help you make the best decisions possible about what to take and how to support your health. Navigating The Ladder of Intervention in Women's Health Dr. Tori's new book outlines what changes might be happening in your body, how to ask the right questions of your health care provider, what might be problematic in the world of tests and treatments, and more. She compares it to a map, as opposed to a strict sequence. There are many options for how to get on from point A (where you are starting) to point B (feeling better). This is important because we are all coming to the table with a different set of cards, and we may all have similar pathways to navigate, but at the end of the day, each of our approaches needs to be individualized. It is tempting to talk to other women and hear a particular intervention that worked well for them, but your menopausal journey will probably look very different from your friends' or even your family members' journey – and what may have worked well for them, may not have the same impact for you. It's great to share stories and share experiences with other women, but no one else's experience will be your exact prescription. That's where the ladder of intervention becomes helpful. On this ladder you can consider where you are starting and what makes sense in your case. Consider what symptoms you are experiencing, what your family history predisposes you to, your own medical history, and what you've already tried to help you see where you should begin. The beauty of this process is to determine the most minimally invasive intervention we can introduce that will lead to the intended improvements. It's not just a hierarchy for all circumstances, as in we do not always start on the first rung of the ladder. Each person or situation will have their own hierarchy. Maybe you've already been implementing diet and exercise but still experiencing night sweats, or hot flashes, or have osteoporosis. In these cases, we move up the ladder of intervention to see what steps are needed to produce the necessary changes. Multitasking Herbs for Menopause Since our body is an ecosystem, symptoms do not usually occur in the singular. Taken together, the totality of symptoms can provide a more complete picture of what herbs might be most helpful. Dr. Tori refers to these combinations as twofers, three-fers, and four-fers. For instance, if a woman is experiencing hot flashes we will also ask, is she struggling with her mood, does she have achy joints as well, or is she experiencing memory issues. Then we look for herbs or formulas that will cover the most issues for a specific patient. Black Cohosh, for example, has by far more research than any other single herb, but that doesn't mean it's going to work for everyone. Maybe curcumin will be the remedy for someone who has hot flashes as well as joint pain. Better Understanding of Hormone Replacement Therapy Is hormone replacement therapy right for you? Women are often hesitant about hormone replacement for one reason or another, as it can feel drastic. There's newer research that's helping us, even as providers, become more comfortable with hormone replacement therapy. If you have been following a treatment plan, and you've tried herbs and formulas that can help with perimenopausal symptoms, but you're still experiencing night sweats or vaginal dryness and your symptoms are not improving, then we can start talking about some form of bioidentical hormone replacement therapy. It's important to understand the benefits and the risks of menopausal hormone therapy. Age will be one of the most important determining factors. How old is the patient, when did she become menopausal, does she have other coexisting health issues or what other coexisting health problems does she have, and what are her risks for what Dr. Tori calls the big three: Osteoporosis, Heart Disease, and Alzheimer's Disease. Additionally, there are three buckets of information that are important to evaluate: what are your quality-of-life issues, what diseases are you at increased risk for, and what conditions or diseases do you already have. All of that informs the decision making on the benefits and the risks of menopausal hormone therapy. If you're within the first ten years of your last menstrual period, less than 60 years old, you haven't had breast cancer, a stroke, or clot, or DBT, then the risks of hormone replacement therapy are negligible. There are a few other risks to consider, like fatty liver, but those are the fundamental considerations. From there we can determine whether menopausal hormone therapy is safe for that person. The risk of breast cancer from going on menopausal hormone therapy is very low if you're in the group just described. In fact, it is much more likely to get breast cancer if you drink alcohol every day, smoke, you don't exercise and you're overweight. There are very few women for whom systemic menopausal hormone therapy is actually contraindicated. There are cautions on delivery methods, for instance if you have a gallstone, we shouldn't give oral hormones, and if you have fatty liver or elevated triglycerides, we shouldn't give oral, but we can give transdermal hormones instead. It's important to work with a practitioner who understand all the options, delivery methods, and ways to customize your dose based on your health. What About Local Estrogen for Vaginal Health? Vaginal estrogen can be a miracle worker for some women. Vaginal estrogen for the purpose of local vulvovaginal problems doesn't increase the risk of anything if it's done properly. Typically, it is prescribed for local dryness, itching, irritation, painful sexual activity, and/or leaky bladder. In these cases, it's often a waste of time to attempt vitamin E, moisturizers, or lubricants. You can skip up the ladder of intervention to vaginal estrogen since it is still very minimally invasive. There are, of course, still instances where caution should be exercised, for instance if breast cancer is or was present. In that case, a non-hormonal option would usually be the beginning recommendation. But even gynecologist societies and menopause societies say you can use tiny doses of vaginal estrogen safely in a breast cancer patient for vaginal symptoms in many cases. A low dose of vaginal estrogen has also been found to be helpful for women who tested positive for HPV and have abnormal cells on their pap smear. With vaginal estrogen, you're improving the vaginal biome and that means you can prevent bacterial vaginosis or vaginal infections. We're finding that the vaginal biome and the species of lactobacilli living in the vagina help fend off HPV as well. Vaginal estrogen gets you a healthier ecological environment and balance of microorganisms. A healthy vaginal biome relies on healthy estrogen levels in the cells. We might first notice vaginal dryness most acutely during sex, but vaginal dryness can be an indicator of other health issues and affect more than just your sex life. Local estrogen can be a preventive medicine that can help with vaginal dryness and a range of other health issues as well. The dryness and discomfort put you at an increased risk for vaginitis, urinary tract infections, possibly HPV, bladder leakage, and overactive bladder. You can prevent those things from happening most of the time by using a small dose of vaginal estrogen twice per week. So, it's not just for sexual comfort, it's related to your overall bladder and vaginal health as well. What Are Some Good Supplements for Menopause and Women's Health? As we mentioned before, Dr. Hudson co-founded Vitanica, a supplement company offering formulations to support women's health. Some of my favorites are: Black Cohosh: The most effective formulation I've ever come across for hot flashes and other menopausal symptoms. Chaste Tree Berry: An herb that supports ovulation and helps with symptoms of premenstrual syndrome, breast pain associated with the menstrual cycle, infertility, and perimenopausal menstrual changes. Slow Flow: A formula of herbs and nutrients for heavy menstrual bleeding. CCDG Blend: Tried and true for HPV cases, CCDG contains curcumin, coriolus mushroom, DIM and green tea, all in one. Cranstat Extra: Herbal and nutrient formula for bladder infections. Candidastat: To support a healthy biome and prevent yeast overgrowth. I've been working with these formulas for 23 years (Dr. Doni speaking), and I've seen time and time again how helpful they are for women. That's why I recommend them in my practice. As always, I am here and would love to help you wherever you are in your health and menopausal journey. I'm licensed to help with hormone replacement therapy in several states.

Jeremy David Keister is a potential predator caught in the Ocean County, New Jersey edition of To Catch a Predator.
