Are Your Hormones Out Of Balance? | Know Your Numbers

This episode is brought to you by Essentia and Cozy Earth.
Conventional medicine often fails us when it comes to hormonal
imbalances. Hormones aren’t commonly tested, and many of the
symptoms of imbalance are written off to aging and never addressed.
Our hormones are like a symphony, with each one acting as a
specialized instrument to keep our bodies in tune. Unbalanced
hormones can lead to impaired mood, poor sleep, memory
difficulties, sexual problems, and more. Get your hormones back in
balance, and these problems usually disappear. In today’s episode
of a new series I’m calling Know Your Numbers, I dive deep into
male and female sex hormones. I discuss what you should measure to
understand your hormonal health in a whole new way, the difference
between conventional and optimal lab ranges, and much more.
