The Dr. Ward Bond Show

Men need to be aware, acknowledge, and adapt to the hormonal shifts women experience both monthly and as they age.Remember that thing your significant other used to do when you were 28 that you thought was so cute and charming? Now that you're 45, it might be the thing that makes you want to punch him in the face. This doesn't arise from a mental imbalance, but rather a hormonal one. Women experience the most hormonal stability between 25 and 35 years old. Then, sex hormones tend to flux up and down until they reach an equilibrium after menopause ends.  These fluctuations can cause both emotional "symptoms" such as irritation, anger or aggression and physical symptoms such as vaginal dryness. Men need to be aware, acknowledge, and adapt to the hormonal shifts women experience both monthly and as they age. Chia Chia Sun is a menopause expert and career pharmaceutical executive turned women's health entrepreneur. As the CEO and Founder of the women's health company Damiva Inc., she loves inventing natural products for women over 35. Her products address vaginal health issues after childbirth, hysterectomy, cancer, and menopause. Chia Chia joins Dr. Bond to explain how women's hormones impact their male counterparts, as well as discuss the various ways to address hormone imbalance and hormone loss.

The Father Effect

Are you consistently overweight, no matter what you do?Are you consistently overweight, no matter what you do? Have you tried everything? Are you plagued by stubborn fat hanging around your hips, thighs, and belly? Well, there's a reason for that. All those frustratingly pointless diets and exercise regimes have failed to address the root cause of weight gain. According to Dr. Lori Shemek, a successful diet isn't centered on calories or cardio. She says, "Cutting calories doesn't cut it." Our problems with fat are created because we eat foods that cause the body's natural fat cells to become inflamed. Sadly, the staples of the Standard American Diet -- from pasta and bread to factory-farmed chicken and cattle, from sugar and artificial sweeteners to salad dressing and soft drinks -- irritate our fat cells, causing chronic inflammation and chronically oversized fat cells. This irritation causes the body to store fat permanently, no matter how hard you exercise or how diligently you cut back on calories. Dr. Shemek calls this serious condition FATflammation, and only when you decrease the inflammation of the fat cells can you achieve the weight loss and optimum health you've been chasing. We need to forget about counting calories, counting points, fad diets, no-fat diets, and spending countless hours at the gym.  Dr. Shemek joins Dr. Bond to discuss the idea behind FATflammation, as well as the following key topics:  Core Underlying Cause of Weight Gain Low-Level Inflammation The Calorie Myth The Fat Myth Gut Health Foods Many Believe are Healthy (But Are Not) Supplements are Necessary for Optimal Health
