Our hormones are essential to our mental and physical health, yet we often don't understand (or we minimize) the key role hormones play in fostering our wellbeing. And to make matters worse, many--or dare I say most – medical practitioners are not given adequate training when it comes to understanding the role hormones play in the health of our bones, heart, muscles, and brain. And when our bodily systems are not functioning well – whether we're experiencing issues such as a lack of focus, sleep disruption, weight gain, or low libido – our mental health can be deeply affected. Today, I'm joined by a top medical expert, Carrie Levine, who will help us discover key components of HRT (hormone replacement therapy) and so much more. Topics discussed include mental heath, depression, psychotherapy, support, physical health, hormones, HRT, hormone replacement therapy, estrogen, progesterone, progestin, DHEA, HPA Axis, cortisol, stress, stress management, exercise, resistance training, weight training, carbohydrates, protein, testosterone, Women's Health Initiative, menopause, perimenopause, post-menopause, relationships, A1C, blood glucose, sex, and libido.
