Description

Our hormones are an integral part of our overall health. And while you might hear phrases about mood swings or hormones being “out of whack,” most folks have little understanding about the network of hormones in our body and the critical roles they play. Here to break down the importance of hormones is Dr. Anna Cabeca. Dr. Anna Cabeca is a hormone expert, triple board-certified OBGYN, and the author of The Hormone Fix. She’s back on The Model Health Show to demystify hormones like oxytocin, cortisol, and insulin. We’re diving into how your hormones impact everything from sexual desire to sleep and mood. You’re going to learn about how unbalanced hormones can contribute to weight gain, how to create morning and evening routines that support hormone health, and specific ways to improve your sexual function and drive. We’ll also discuss hormonal shifts like menopause, simple lifestyle habits you can implement to optimize your hormonal health, and so much more. Dr. Cabeca has a wealth of knowledge in the field of hormones, and I know you’re going to have some key takeaways from this episode. Enjoy!
