Is it possible to have hormone harmony and go from living in hormone hell to feeling well? You are about to find out!  Today starts a 3-part series on How to Balance your Hormones. Part 1 and Part 2 we will be joined by Dr. Carol Villaneuva, a Functional Medicine physician who specializes in hormone balance and women’s health. And then in Part 3 I’ll be reviewing foods that are helpful and foods that are definitely harmful when it comes to balancing your hormones. These next three weeks will empower you to take control of your health and get some hormone harmony in your life.

Does this sound familiar to you...brain fog, belly fat, fatigue, low libido, no energy, lack of motivation?? These are indications of hormone imbalance.  Today's podcast gives some perspective on the vital role that hormones play in the body and how to know if your hormones are unbalanced.  Our guest, Dr. Carol Villaneuva, does an excellent job of simply explaining some complicated science as we dig into thyroid insufficiency, the importance of testosterone for women's health and the dietary and environmental factors that play a role in throwing our hormones out of whack!

Dr. Carol Villaneuva is a board-certified Internist and Functional Medicine physician. This is her 2nd time with us on the Healthy Harmony podcast.  The first time that she was a guest we discussed the deficiencies seen today in health care, what makes Functional Medicine unique and why she chose to leave the traditional health care system to practice in Functional Medicine.  Click here to listen to that podcast! https://www.inspirehealthyharmony.com/broken-healthcare.html#/
