Listen Later

LADIES! Can’t figure out what’s causing your skin breakout, anxiety, insomnia, mood issues, and excruciating monthly cycle? Your derailed hormones may be the culprit!

“Your hormones are like children. They can’t be unattended at any time.”  - Dr. Carrie

In this episode of HYDRATE, Women’s Health and Hormone expert Dr. Carrie Jones and I dive deep into hormone health and imbalance. We’ve always known hormones as signaling agents in our body, but many of us don’t fully understand how hormones work and how they can perform miracles once we learn to optimize them. 

Working like a symphony of messengers, hormones transport signals throughout the body and regulate our physiology. However, as in a symphony, one miscue can derail the system and trigger an imbalance.

Plus, Dr. Carrie covers what causes hormone imbalance and what we can do to avoid them. She claims that our lifestyle, diet, hobbies, thoughts, stressors, hydration, and medications are vital in hormonal disruption. Sadly, there’s no magic pill to restore balance, but the good news is, there are tons of practical ways to keep our hormones happy, healthy, and thriving! 

Dr. Carrie Jones is a Naturopathic Physician with expertise in women’s health and hormones. She’s an internationally acclaimed educator sharing her healing wisdom to patients and health care practitioners across the globe.
