In this episode of Double Down with Dr. D., I’m joined by Dr. Jen Pfleghaar, a double board-certified emergency and lifestyle medicine physician and co-author of Eat, Sleep, Move, and Breathe.

Dr. Jen shares her journey from conventional medicine to integrative care after her own struggle with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis. We dive into:

• The fundamental pillars of lifestyle medicine—nutrition, sleep, stress, and community

• Why the healthcare system often overlooks chronic illness and “invisible” conditions

• The science and safe use of peptides for gut healing, hormone balance, inflammation, and weight management

• Cycle syncing as a powerful, free tool to optimize women’s hormonal health
  

If you’ve ever felt dismissed by conventional medicine or are curious about innovative therapies that work with your body, this conversation is for you.
