In this episode, we discuss Botox and the growing number of women choosing natural alternatives. Botox, or botulinum toxin type A, is a neurotoxic protein used in small doses to treat various medical conditions and to reduce wrinkles by temporarily paralyzing muscles. While millions of people have used Botox, it comes with potential side effects like bruising, headaches, muscle weakness and in some cases, more serious complications such as botulism. Most people are unaware that Botox carries a Black Box Warning issued by the FDA which states that Botox can cause serious side effects, including the potential spread of the toxin from the injection site. This warning is the most serious type issued by the FDA.
Today, nearly 40% of women seeking anti-aging treatments are now exploring natural alternatives to Botox. Gudrun Snyder, a Doctor of Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine and founder of Moon Rabbit Acupuncture and a leading expert in cosmetic acupuncture discusses Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture—a holistic, non-invasive alternative that smooths fine lines, firms skin tone, treats acne, and boosts collagen production, all without synthetic injections.

Betrayal Season 5
Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
