Ask Me Anything Q&A with Karen post bikini contest healing best female supplements CBD THC for anxiety and much more! Aug 20, 2020

Show notes

This week's Q&A ask me anything!

Karen ~ I stumbled across your podcast and have been binging listening for the past week or so. thank you so much for all of the awesome content. I have my labs from my primary low T3, low estrogen and low Leutenizing hormone. I just sent in my blood sample for cortisol and thyroid plus from "lets get checked" (waiting on those results). I also completed your quiz and triggered for high cortisol, which is 💯 I work in healthcare and have extreme professional and personal stress for years, along with chronic exercise. I competed in 2 NPC bikini competitions last year. I've been monitoring my BS and ketone levels this week. As well as started a paleo/keto with root veggies for carbs. I've noticed some great changes. I also started the gut cleanse protocol from microbe formulas. I've struggled with GI issues, primarily constipation bloating for years. My question is how do I know where to start... your podcast stated fasting can increase stress ... my gut ... my thyroid... I want to start but just unsure where to begin 🙃 any advice is so appreciated!! TIA
Hi Karen I love your podcast and I am learning so much! My question is What are the basic supplements every woman should be taking?
How can you maintain a healthy eating lifestyle when your spouse/significant other is not on board?
Hi Karen thank you for answering my questions I really have been enjoying your Q&A podcasts. I have a two part question for you What's your take on cbd and thc for therapeutic purposes and any suggestions on natural remedies for anxiety?
Hi Karen love your podcast! I am 44 years old and relatively active I have been following a low carb diet now for a few years but have stopped losing weight. I would still consider myself overweight and could handle losing another 20 pounds. I love your idea on diet variation and have started to implement it into my diet. My questions is does a person need ot lower their fat intake in order to lose weight? In your diet variation protocol you talk about carb cycling but not fat cycling. I have always thought low fat the better but maybe that's not the case should we cycle the fat what is best for weight loss? Thanks.

The Estrogen Fix with Mache Seibel Aug 13, 2020

Show notes

When Dr. Mache Seibel's wife had surgery that threw her into early menopause only months after a study incorrectly reported that estrogen caused breast cancer, her doctors were reluctant to treat her with hormone therapy. He HAD to find out the truth.

As a result, Dr. Mache transitioned from one of the leading fertility experts to researching estrogen and menopause. He's passionate about helping women around the world get the information they need to "figure it out" so they don't have to "tough it out."

In this episode

Why we have to look at menopause differently
Early onset menopause
Why the results of the Women's Health Initiative was misinterpreted and what the results really told us.
The estrogen window what all women need to know what this is and when it happens
Why estrogen could save your life and prevent some of the major killers of women like heart disease and Alzheimer's.
Why estrogen can effect your weight and what replacing it can do for that stubborn belly fat.
What happens to your libido and how estrogen is to blame.

Getting Over Getting Older: How To Love & Accept Your Aging Body Aug 06, 2020

Show notes

How do you feel about yourself as you go through perimenopause or enter into menopause? Do you love your body are you embracing the grey hair and the softer body?

Probably not and that is because society tells us we need to fight it every step up of the way. Botox, extreme diets, filler, breast implants, tummy tucks the list is endless when it comes to female interventions to help stave off the inevitable, getting old!

But are men doing this? Heck no and it's time we started to change the way we see aging in women. We live in a time of both enormous progress and empowerment for women, but against a background of huge inequality, with a long way to go.

Tune into this episode to find out how YOU can do just that and start paving the way not only for your own journey through to menopause and beyond but for those women that will be coming after us.

Ask Me Anything Q&A with Karen Jul 23, 2020

Show notes

1. What is a good source of progesterone and estriol to buy in Canada. (I get into the different ways you can buy hormones in the States and Canada.)

2. I just heard a keto educator say that women with thyroid issues should not eat too many cruciferous vegetables. I haven't heard this before. What do you think about this?

3. I listened to your interview with Kate Deering who talked with you about eating more carbs. I've been on a very low carb diet. That talk made me think I should be adding more carbs, even as a diabetic. They do tend to make me gain weight, but maybe I should get my body more used to them. What do you think?

4. Does a person have to do keto or carb cycle when their hormones aren't functioning properly? Does cutting out things like gluten, sugar, dairy, eggs etc (intolerance foods) help speed up the healing? Or is it unnecessary?
