Angela welcomes Dr Jolene Brighten back to the show to discuss her amazing new book 'Is This Normal? Judgment-Free Straight Talk About Your Body'. Dr Jolene also talks about sex, hormones, periods, and all things women's health. KEY TAKEAWAYS Fundamentally, women should all be taught the basics about how our bodies work, and how we can keep on top of our health and wellbeing. If our periods are so painful and uncomfortable that we are being forced to rearrange plans and our routines, then we should take it as a signal that things are not normal. Our bodies are naturally looking to procreate and create babies even if mentally we are not on the same page. Even though we do not wish to engage in fertility, your body will still set itself up physically to do so as this is the optimal health position. Mitochondria doesn't just ready our bodies for fertility by keeping our ovaries young. It also helps with other areas of our physiology, and can play a huge part in keeping dementia at bay. BEST MOMENTS 'Never should you ever find yourself in a position where you don't have the basics you need about your body' 'The way most people learn is by going through it and actually doing it' 'These are things we're told are normal, but they're really early signs that there's an issue going on' 'Mitochondria is the power house to your cells' EPISODE RESOURCES Dr Jolene's Book, 'Is This Normal?

Her book The Immunotype Breakthrough: Your Personalized Plan to Balance Your Immune System, Optimize Health, and Build Lifelong Resilience Book Description: The Immunotype Breakthrough: Your Personalized Plan to Balance Your Immune System, Optimize Health, and Build Lifelong Resilience A respected immunologist, allergist, and functional medicine doctor breaks down the latest science on immunity, offering “the most important guide available” (Mark Hyman, MD) to balancing your system for optimal health and longevity. To most of us, the immune system is seemingly unknowable—it's an invisible, complex network of cells, receptors, and messengers, and there's no standard way to see if it's functioning as it should. Yet in spite of this, it affects every aspect of our health, influencing (and sometimes even causing) nearly every disease known to humanity. Much has been made about “boosting” immunity, but what exactly does that mean, and what if boosting isn't really what your unique system needs?   In The Immunotype Breakthrough, Dr. Heather Moday explains that for most, immune system balance is key. Drawing on a wealth of cutting edge research and fascinating case studies, Dr. Moday explains that the immune system is fluid and significantly influenced by our behaviors, diet, habits, and environment. She identifies four primary Immunotypes—Smoldering, Weak, Hyperactive, and Misguided—that underlie the immune imbalances that commonly lead to disease, chronic inflammation, infection, allergies, and autoimmunity. By identifying your personal immunotype—where you fall on this immunity spectrum—you can intervene by making focused, individualized, natural lifestyle changes to ensure it functions optimally  Featuring engaging and accessible science, practical and customizable takeaways, and interactive quizzes to help you zero in on your specific needs, The Immunotype Breakthrough is a revolutionary program for creating an individualized lifestyle and diet that will lead to immune resilience, vitality, and longevity.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Episode Show Notes: The Gut - Hormone Relationship  Our liver packages up our estrogen and places it into beneficial metabolites and then that is sent out to be excreted   Hormonal Birth Control  30% of women go through 5 different birth control prescriptions due to side effects There is an increased risk of Inflammatory bowel disease as a side effect to birth control Hormonal birth control induces intestinal hyperpermeability and can lead to leaky gut It alters the microbiome which can in turn impact fertility and ovaries  Using birth control for symptom management actually delays the diagnosis for women It can affect the brain   Tips While Taking The Pill If you are on the pill or plan to take it Dr. Brighten has a few tips to support your body as the pill can create nutrient deficiencies Be sure to maintain a healthy diet and exercise Take a prenatal or multivitamin Support your liver and gut health Eat cruciferous vegetables  Ensure you have the micro and macro nutrients to have regular bowel movements Make sure you are on a probiotic and maintaining a variety of fiber intake Support estrogen production and find a sustainable, high-quality fish oil to add to your daily routine   Where to learn more about Dr. Jolene Brighten...
