🔗Roadmap to Progesterone – Article by naturopathic doctor Lara Briden. I’ve found her information on hormones helpful to understand the menstrual cycle, perimenopause, and menopause, and how to support our bodies during this time to help with associated symptoms. **However, as for the information on her website about endometriosis, I have seen misinformation there, so take any of that info with a grain of salt.** Having said that though, some of her recommendations may be helpful for some people to manage endometriosis symptoms, but not to suppress the disease, shrink, or remove it. While she links to some studies on how X supplement etc can “reduce lesions” and other claims, these studies have design flaws. Remember – no matter the diet, lifestyle, herbs, supplements, etc, endometriosis still remains and can even progress leading to fused organs, bowel blockages, silent kidney death, etc, even if a person becomes asymptomatic.

June 24, 2021 66: Our Relationship with Food. Part 2
Updated 1/2024. CW: Eating for comfort. Amy and Brittany examine their relationship with food. We talk about:
—the general and common practice of “eating our feelings” and using food to soothe our feelings instead of actually being with them
—the importance of learning to be with our feelings
—some tips for paying attention to food cravings to see if there is actually an “emotional craving” behind them
***Note: We don’t want this convo to play into diet culture and make us feel ashamed or guilty for eating for reasons besides hunger. Instead, we are just trying to better understand ourselves and have more awareness and mindfulness. As we (Brittany and Amy) get sick from most of the food we eat - especially from the salty and sweet snacks our emotions tend to crave - we personally don't want to be turning to food for bad day we have, because frequently flaring affects our mental health.
