The Change

Naturopathic Medicine and Perimenopause with Dr. Jody Shevins


Listen Later

In this episode I chat with Dr. Jody Shevins a naturopathic doctor who has been in practice since 1984.  What I love about Dr. Shevins is her pragmatic approach to health care.  She also specializes in … homeopathy!  If there is one touchpoint in the holistic world that seems to polarize folks the most - homeopathy is it.  And while we don’t talk a ton about homeopathy in this episode - it is on the list.  And I encourage folks with strong feelings about this modality to take a listen and keep an open mind.  We even chat about taking a pro-vaccine stance in the naturopathic world - yes, this is a thing!  https://ndsforvaccines.com/  We review what naturopathic tools are most effective for perimenopause, how to build the best approach for individual patients and how to focus on preventative medicine to extend the healthspan. 

*** Quick note - I say HRT (hormone replacement therapy) a lot in tis episode when the better terminology is MHT (menopause hormone therapy).  Working on updating my vocabulary!
