Description

Did you know that your genes actually determine how your immune system responds to sickness, exercise, and stress? If you have genetic SNPs (mutations in certain genes), then you could be more prone to inflammation, chronic pain, and a slower recovery from things like exercise.That is exactly what I found out in this episode, where Dr. Shay went over my genetic testing in detail. He ran five genetic panels that gave me clear insight into why I have the health struggles I have, and reviewed them in detail. And the best part? He shared a ton of knowledge bombs during this episode that I know you'll want to hear!If you haven't listened to episode #65, How Do Your Genes Affect Your Health, with Dr. Shay, then you should!

She has had many of her own health issues along the way, which lead her from the world of conventional medicine into the worlds of functional medicine and wellness.She is passionate about educating you on healthy diet and lifestyle choices to get back to where you belong- being joyful and thriving. She explains, "I am doing this because I want to empower you to take control of your body, your health, and your life. There is only one of me and so many of you. I find myself saying the same things over and over in my office, realizing that I could have a greater impact if I started reaching the masses. We are all unique in how our bodies respond and react, but there are many basic principles that hold true for everyone. I want to share that knowledge with you. I’m passionate about helping you understand what is normal and natural and what is cause for concern."She explains that the purpose of her podcast will be to bring you the latest information from the world of wellness and functional medicine because they are at the forefront of science, studying the microbiome, environmental toxicology, nutrition, and epigenetics. She will be covering many topics and explaining women's normal phases of life (puberty, the menstrual cycle, the reproductive years, perimenopause, and postmenopause.) She will discuss how our diets, lifestyle choices, and environment affect our hormones and contribute to disease. Some topics will be hormone imbalance, stress management, weight gain, polycystic ovarian syndrome, endometriosis, the effects of hormonal birth control, pelvic floor issues, nutrition, intermittent fasting, exercise, thyroid disease, depression and anxiety, infertility, and pregnancy.
