Hormone imbalance, weight gain, brain fog, and burnout after 40? You’re not alone. In this episode of Doing Life Different, Lesa Koski welcomes functional medicine practitioner Marrie Simpson for an open, empowering conversation about hormones, metabolic health, and how women can take back control of their well-being—naturally and holistically.
Marrie shares her personal journey from prescription-based medicine to root-cause healing, and dives into actionable steps women can take to balance hormones, increase energy, improve sleep, and support metabolic fitness—especially during perimenopause and menopause.
If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or out of balance, this episode is packed with hope, education, and next steps—without the overwhelm. Whether you're dealing with hot flashes, insomnia, low libido, or just a nagging feeling of "not quite right," you're in the right place.
🎧 Plus: Lesa shares her own experience navigating estrogen blockers after breast cancer—and how Marie's guidance has helped her reclaim her energy and mindset.

✅ Key Takeaways:
- 88% of chronic illnesses are connected to metabolic dysfunction—not genetics.
- Cortisol and estrogen dominance are often the hidden culprits behind midlife weight gain and insomnia.
- Women can take a natural approach to healing through diet, stress management, muscle preservation, and detoxification.

Welcome listeners.
2
00:00:03,120 --> 00:00:08,039
I am always excited to have
my darling friend, my prayer
3
00:00:08,039 --> 00:00:10,530
warrior Marie Simpson with us.
4
00:00:10,530 --> 00:00:14,280
She is my functional health
practitioner that I love.
5
00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:15,930
And you know what was funny?
6
00:00:15,930 --> 00:00:21,480
I was telling Marie before we got
on, usually when I do this podcast,
7
00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:26,880
I, I let people tell their authentic
story and I was watching something.
8
00:00:27,420 --> 00:00:30,810
On Marie, a different video, a side
video, and I'm like, I've never
9
00:00:30,810 --> 00:00:34,560
had her do that on the podcast
and your story, it helps people.
10
00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:35,850
It helps people learn.
11
00:00:35,850 --> 00:00:39,690
You know, when you go through something
difficult and you learn from it and
12
00:00:39,690 --> 00:00:41,580
you share it, you share that story.
13
00:00:41,580 --> 00:00:44,670
That's how we encourage
and change the world.
14
00:00:44,670 --> 00:00:49,230
And so I just wanna take a little
time to get to know Marie better.
15
00:00:49,925 --> 00:00:54,665
We're gonna do that first, but just so
you know, this episode you are gonna
16
00:00:54,665 --> 00:00:57,755
love 'cause it's all about hormones.
17
00:00:58,115 --> 00:01:02,795
We're gonna talk, touch a little bit
on perimenopause and menopause and
18
00:01:02,795 --> 00:01:07,655
then um, we're gonna talk about what
we can do kind of naturally, right?
19
00:01:07,655 --> 00:01:09,185
Without hormone replacement meds.
20
00:01:10,320 --> 00:01:15,539
Then we're gonna delve into how do you
know when it's time or if it's necessary.
21
00:01:15,539 --> 00:01:17,640
And Marie can help us with all of that.
22
00:01:17,789 --> 00:01:24,630
And I just wanna add one more thing that
all of this is really hard to talk about.
23
00:01:24,630 --> 00:01:27,870
I feel like when we don't
talk about metabolic.
24
00:01:28,100 --> 00:01:31,880
Fitness, metabolic health, and Marie
has taught me so much about that.
25
00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:36,320
So listeners, I do have another episode,
but what I want you to know is when I
26
00:01:36,320 --> 00:01:42,800
do my saddle up segment on Thursday, I'm
going to go through what I've learned
27
00:01:42,830 --> 00:01:45,770
from Marie briefly about metabolic health.
28
00:01:45,919 --> 00:01:48,830
And if you are interested, I have.
29
00:01:49,229 --> 00:01:51,539
How to connect with
Marie in my show notes.
30
00:01:51,539 --> 00:01:53,070
It's even on my website.
31
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:57,120
Or you can just, I'll put her
website on in my show notes too.
32
00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:02,280
So that was a really long introduction,
but Marie, thank you so much for being
33
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:06,630
here, for taking the time and welcome,
and let's get to know you a little better.
34
00:02:06,630 --> 00:02:09,570
What led you to do this
Phenomenal work for people.
35
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:10,080
Yeah.
36
00:02:10,110 --> 00:02:11,640
Speaker 2: Well, thank
you so much for having me.
37
00:02:11,640 --> 00:02:12,330
I always love.
38
00:02:12,980 --> 00:02:17,690
Being on your podcast and so appreciate
you and right back at you with all
39
00:02:17,690 --> 00:02:21,290
those beautiful things you said about
me because you are just a, just a
40
00:02:21,290 --> 00:02:23,480
sweetheart and a prayer for me as well.
41
00:02:23,510 --> 00:02:27,170
So, um, so I started in medicine.
42
00:02:27,170 --> 00:02:33,020
I always love helping people and, and
so I knew that I wanted to go into
43
00:02:33,020 --> 00:02:34,520
medicine, always interested in it.
44
00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:37,550
I love, love, love learning, and so.
45
00:02:37,915 --> 00:02:43,915
I became a physician assistant back in
1992, I believe it was, and I had worked
46
00:02:43,915 --> 00:02:48,595
in a nursing home for years before that
and just always kind of in that area.
47
00:02:48,894 --> 00:02:52,734
Um, practiced family practice for a
number of years, but I just was like,
48
00:02:52,734 --> 00:02:55,945
wow, I am putting people on prescriptions.
49
00:02:55,945 --> 00:02:57,174
I have 10 minute visits.
50
00:02:57,989 --> 00:03:01,709
We are not getting at the rut, and I
thought there has to be something more.
51
00:03:01,890 --> 00:03:04,290
I don't wanna just keep
doling out prescriptions.
52
00:03:04,290 --> 00:03:06,630
And so started in functional medicine.
53
00:03:06,630 --> 00:03:11,670
It took me a while to get my, um,
certification in functional medicine,
54
00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:13,230
probably about seven, eight years.
55
00:03:13,230 --> 00:03:16,230
But I started, started
in hormones actually.
56
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:19,380
Uh, and then just kept going
deeper and deeper and deeper
57
00:03:19,380 --> 00:03:20,880
with autoimmune conditions.
58
00:03:21,179 --> 00:03:23,039
Uh, I spent some time under Dr.
59
00:03:23,039 --> 00:03:25,019
Dale Breon, who wrote
the book, the End of.
60
00:03:25,545 --> 00:03:29,535
Alzheimer's, he's had a couple subsequent
books, but really looking at how
61
00:03:29,535 --> 00:03:34,365
do we prevent disease and how do we
prevent the need for prescriptions?
62
00:03:34,365 --> 00:03:35,925
And I use this analogy all the time.
63
00:03:36,045 --> 00:03:38,745
Bad, better, best, bad, doing nothing.
64
00:03:38,985 --> 00:03:39,285
Okay?
65
00:03:39,285 --> 00:03:41,655
So we don't wanna have high
blood pressure and not treat it.
66
00:03:41,655 --> 00:03:43,195
We don't wanna have high
blood sugar and not treat it.
67
00:03:43,710 --> 00:03:48,390
We want to understand what we have
and if we can prevent the need for
68
00:03:48,390 --> 00:03:49,860
medication, that's gonna be best.
69
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:52,440
But better is gonna be
that we use medication.
70
00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:54,390
So medications are indicated.
71
00:03:54,690 --> 00:04:01,320
Uh, and we definitely feel, I feel that
traditional medicine has its place, but.
72
00:04:01,875 --> 00:04:08,774
It doesn't do the best job at disease
prevention at increasing our health span.
73
00:04:09,434 --> 00:04:14,084
So I started in functional medicine,
uh, and I wasn't the healthiest, but
74
00:04:14,084 --> 00:04:18,495
I started implementing many, many
things I've been overweight for since,
75
00:04:18,615 --> 00:04:23,715
since actually I was a kid and didn't
get to do the things I wanted to be,
76
00:04:24,044 --> 00:04:25,995
uh, in pom-poms and cheerleading.
77
00:04:25,995 --> 00:04:28,965
But, you know, my weight really
held me back in a lot of areas.
78
00:04:30,075 --> 00:04:35,355
So became had difficulty getting pregnant
because of my weight, because of PCOS.
79
00:04:35,565 --> 00:04:37,995
I had a diagnosis of fibromyalgia.
80
00:04:38,025 --> 00:04:41,325
I had many, many symptoms.
81
00:04:41,505 --> 00:04:42,825
Again, the hormone imbalance.
82
00:04:42,825 --> 00:04:46,545
I had chronic achiness
and pain, I had insomnia.
83
00:04:47,985 --> 00:04:49,545
The list was long.
84
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:53,460
I started addressing all of these things
from a functional medicine approach,
85
00:04:53,940 --> 00:04:57,360
uh, as I learned functional medicine
and how to do things, but my weight
86
00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:00,330
would not, my, it was, I just was stuck.
87
00:05:00,330 --> 00:05:04,920
I had tried hundreds, literally
hundreds of things, whether it
88
00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:07,410
was, you know, diet and exercise.
89
00:05:07,410 --> 00:05:10,800
I would maybe eat 500 calories a day
and I would exercise three or four
90
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:13,290
hours thinking if I just worked harder.
91
00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:13,830
Yes.
92
00:05:13,830 --> 00:05:16,440
Then the weight's gonna come off and.
93
00:05:17,099 --> 00:05:23,219
And after I started my own practice,
um, I, I left the clinic practice in
94
00:05:23,429 --> 00:05:26,849
about four and a half years ago and
started Elevate Health and Wellness,
95
00:05:26,849 --> 00:05:28,469
which is what I work under right now.
96
00:05:28,830 --> 00:05:33,090
Then I went through a program
myself that was really helpful.
97
00:05:33,090 --> 00:05:36,539
It didn't have the functional medicine
aspects, but it was helpful for losing
98
00:05:36,539 --> 00:05:42,808
weight, really training your body on
how to detox, how to, um, optimize.
99
00:05:43,510 --> 00:05:44,469
Fat burning.
100
00:05:44,469 --> 00:05:50,050
How to really support the body through
the process because we know that
101
00:05:51,039 --> 00:05:56,320
toxins are stored in fat, and so as we
are working on burning fat for fuel,
102
00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:58,539
we are going through detoxification.
103
00:05:59,170 --> 00:06:04,780
Also, focusing on balancing hormones and
optimizing energy, and really getting at
104
00:06:04,780 --> 00:06:09,849
the root of so many pieces, looking at gut
health, looking at brain fog, looking at.
105
00:06:10,785 --> 00:06:15,765
Autoimmune conditions and all of that,
just all bringing lots of pieces into it.
106
00:06:15,765 --> 00:06:21,105
So I've created my own version of
this with genetics with continuous
107
00:06:21,105 --> 00:06:25,845
glucose monitors, because these pieces
really help give us understanding of
108
00:06:25,845 --> 00:06:27,165
what's going on behind the scenes.
109
00:06:27,675 --> 00:06:32,295
Our body gives us clues whether
you have digestive issues, whether
110
00:06:32,685 --> 00:06:36,465
you've had a diagnosis of cancer
that is a clue about immune health,
111
00:06:36,675 --> 00:06:39,190
whether you have, uh, brain fog.
112
00:06:39,854 --> 00:06:42,405
All these pieces are are clues.
113
00:06:42,405 --> 00:06:45,135
And so we put that detective hat
on and we think, okay, what's
114
00:06:45,135 --> 00:06:46,304
going on behind the scenes?
115
00:06:46,635 --> 00:06:48,825
And then we look at.
116
00:06:49,365 --> 00:06:53,115
Labs, the continuous glucose
monitors give us information.
117
00:06:53,325 --> 00:06:57,585
Genetics help me personalize
fine tune what recommendations
118
00:06:57,585 --> 00:06:58,784
that I would typically have.
119
00:06:58,905 --> 00:07:02,385
And so over the course of the
last four years, I've continually
120
00:07:02,385 --> 00:07:06,435
added and developed the 12 week
program for what it is today.
121
00:07:06,765 --> 00:07:09,315
And it was my personal transformation.
122
00:07:09,315 --> 00:07:13,665
It was learning all of the pieces
that, uh, can keep people stuck.
123
00:07:13,935 --> 00:07:17,685
And it isn't a one size
fits all as we know, right.
124
00:07:18,585 --> 00:07:26,445
So that and a coupled with my dad
and my dad started becoming ill.
125
00:07:27,750 --> 00:07:31,170
15 years ago and he had diabetes and he
started gaining weight around the middle.
126
00:07:31,409 --> 00:07:36,690
Um, but then came the tremors, it
came some personality changes, uh,
127
00:07:36,719 --> 00:07:41,460
frequent falls, and eventually he
was diagnosed with Parkinson's.
128
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:44,099
And that really helped me.
129
00:07:44,099 --> 00:07:48,360
And that's around that time
I was doing the, uh, brain.
130
00:07:48,930 --> 00:07:50,355
Optimization with Dr.
131
00:07:50,355 --> 00:07:55,380
Dale Bredesen's training and really
looking into what is going on with my dad
132
00:07:55,860 --> 00:08:02,190
and come to find out that we know 88% of
all chronic illness comes from a metabolic
133
00:08:02,190 --> 00:08:03,870
disorder, and he certainly had that.
134
00:08:03,870 --> 00:08:07,050
He had the weight around the
middle, he had the diabetes, and
135
00:08:07,110 --> 00:08:08,550
so just kind of working along.
136
00:08:08,700 --> 00:08:13,440
We have managed to halt progression
for many, many years, and now
137
00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:15,810
as he's now in his eighties.
138
00:08:16,095 --> 00:08:18,105
Um, 84 to be exact.
139
00:08:18,375 --> 00:08:22,125
We've, we've, we've seen continued
progression and he has good days and
140
00:08:22,125 --> 00:08:26,505
bad days, but he is a hundred percent
rely reliant on other people to care for
141
00:08:26,505 --> 00:08:31,125
him with eating, with, walking, with,
caring for any, anything that he needs.
142
00:08:31,335 --> 00:08:33,825
It's based on somebody
else, uh, caring for him.
143
00:08:34,515 --> 00:08:37,095
So his health span was cut way too short.
144
00:08:37,215 --> 00:08:39,615
We know the average lifespan is.
145
00:08:40,005 --> 00:08:43,724
77, uh, and the average health span is 65.
146
00:08:43,933 --> 00:08:46,814
So it's like, what are we gonna
do with that last 10 to 12 years?
147
00:08:47,055 --> 00:08:52,500
Uh, and we wanna, we wanna lengthen
lifespan and lengthen health span mm-hmm.
148
00:08:52,584 --> 00:08:54,555
So that people don't have to suffer.
149
00:08:54,885 --> 00:08:56,175
Like I see so many people do.
150
00:08:56,385 --> 00:08:57,464
So, all right.
151
00:08:57,885 --> 00:08:58,365
Speaker: Too long.
152
00:08:58,365 --> 00:09:00,194
I know men that, I love that.
153
00:09:00,194 --> 00:09:01,665
I love learning that about you.
154
00:09:01,665 --> 00:09:04,725
And that is why you're the
amazing woman that you are.
155
00:09:04,730 --> 00:09:05,905
Oh, thank you.
156
00:09:05,905 --> 00:09:06,105
Because you've, thank you.
157
00:09:06,105 --> 00:09:07,995
You've learned and you share it.
158
00:09:08,115 --> 00:09:09,885
And, and that's what we need.
159
00:09:09,885 --> 00:09:13,155
That's what we all need, need to
do, is share the things we learned.
160
00:09:13,155 --> 00:09:16,574
So I have so many questions popping up.
161
00:09:16,574 --> 00:09:18,855
One thing I wanted to mention mm-hmm.
162
00:09:19,125 --> 00:09:22,545
That I've heard you say before is
it's important to know our why.
163
00:09:22,545 --> 00:09:25,125
So we're sitting here today and.
164
00:09:25,680 --> 00:09:30,525
As a woman, you know, I know
my why is I wanna feel better.
165
00:09:31,035 --> 00:09:31,125
Mm-hmm.
166
00:09:31,364 --> 00:09:35,505
I want to grab my grandchildren, pick
'em up, carry 'em down the street.
167
00:09:35,505 --> 00:09:38,925
I wanna run, I wanna
play, I wanna feel good.
168
00:09:39,314 --> 00:09:39,405
Mm-hmm.
169
00:09:39,650 --> 00:09:43,425
And so, and there is a part of it
that I kind, I wanna look good, but I
170
00:09:43,425 --> 00:09:49,545
think even more is, I wanna feel good
now at this stage in my life, but.
171
00:09:49,950 --> 00:09:53,850
Here's the thing that so many
women my age, and I didn't even
172
00:09:53,850 --> 00:09:56,850
think I was gonna mention this, but
it kind of goes along with this.
173
00:09:56,940 --> 00:09:57,030
Mm-hmm.
174
00:09:57,270 --> 00:10:00,630
They're like, oh my gosh,
why I've gained weight.
175
00:10:00,660 --> 00:10:05,400
Women who have remained at a steady,
great weight all their life, and
176
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:06,120
all of a sudden they're like.
177
00:10:06,505 --> 00:10:07,405
What is going on.
178
00:10:07,405 --> 00:10:07,495
Mm-hmm.
179
00:10:08,094 --> 00:10:11,574
Why am I suddenly like I can't
do anything and I've been there.
180
00:10:11,579 --> 00:10:12,000
Mm-hmm.
181
00:10:12,084 --> 00:10:14,935
I have been there when I
couldn't really do anything.
182
00:10:15,265 --> 00:10:20,005
So those, and I wasn't obese and it
wasn't a big deal, but it does me
183
00:10:20,005 --> 00:10:24,175
being five pounds more than I need
to be affects my blood pressure.
184
00:10:24,175 --> 00:10:24,185
Mm-hmm.
185
00:10:24,185 --> 00:10:24,439
Mm-hmm.
186
00:10:24,745 --> 00:10:29,005
So learning the how to be
metabolically fit changed my life too.
187
00:10:29,155 --> 00:10:29,245
Mm-hmm.
188
00:10:29,484 --> 00:10:30,505
And you helped with that.
189
00:10:30,805 --> 00:10:31,854
So let's talk about that.
190
00:10:31,854 --> 00:10:35,079
Is that hormone related that
suddenly we wake up and we go.
191
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:37,950
Everything that I used to do isn't
192
00:10:37,950 --> 00:10:38,310
Speaker 2: working.
193
00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:39,420
Yeah.
194
00:10:39,930 --> 00:10:43,320
You know, it's, it's, it is
hormones and it's more than that.
195
00:10:43,635 --> 00:10:50,760
Uh, I feel that the modern conveniences
of life have, have increased that
196
00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:54,120
propensity for weight gain just because.
197
00:10:54,755 --> 00:10:58,835
We're in front of screens, we're rushing
around and like you, I have 10 grandkids.
198
00:10:58,835 --> 00:11:02,465
I have aging parents, I have
three kids, I have a husband.
199
00:11:02,765 --> 00:11:05,735
I'm running a business,
and things get kinda crazy.
200
00:11:05,735 --> 00:11:09,665
And so I know it's really important
that we manage that cortisol because
201
00:11:09,665 --> 00:11:13,475
when cortisol goes up and oftentimes
it's really, you know, we're gonna see
202
00:11:13,475 --> 00:11:16,445
blood sugar elevation, which is gonna
have influence on metabolic health,
203
00:11:16,805 --> 00:11:23,315
but that that cortisol elevation will
completely override our sex hormones.
204
00:11:23,790 --> 00:11:24,780
So that's one piece.
205
00:11:25,170 --> 00:11:29,730
The other piece is we're not moving
as much, and so we know that muscle
206
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:32,880
will deteriorate after the ages of 30.
207
00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:35,160
We start to lose about
three to 8% of our muscle.
208
00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:36,570
And it depends on the person, right?
209
00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:42,685
Um, and so as our muscle goes down,
our metabolic, you know, activity slows
210
00:11:42,685 --> 00:11:46,470
and we can start to see weight gain.
211
00:11:46,530 --> 00:11:47,850
Uh, so that's, that's a piece.
212
00:11:47,970 --> 00:11:48,960
So cortisol elevation.
213
00:11:50,340 --> 00:11:54,900
Lack of muscle and, and muscle tone,
muscle strength, lack of sleep.
214
00:11:54,900 --> 00:11:54,990
Mm-hmm.
215
00:11:55,110 --> 00:11:58,620
So if we're in front of screens and we're
stressed, we often don't sleep as well.
216
00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:00,720
That has a big impact on.
217
00:12:01,125 --> 00:12:06,074
A cortisol, but also on our metabolic
health and just our nutrition.
218
00:12:06,074 --> 00:12:08,685
Yeah, our nutrition is foundational.
219
00:12:08,685 --> 00:12:13,185
It's a foundational pillar, and so when
we're stressed and tired, we may not feel
220
00:12:13,185 --> 00:12:15,699
like cooking those veggies and getting.
221
00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:18,050
Clean healthy meals, right?
222
00:12:18,079 --> 00:12:19,339
Nutrient dense meals.
223
00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:21,560
And so those are other pieces.
224
00:12:22,130 --> 00:12:25,610
When our estrogen starts to decline
and our progesterone, particularly our
225
00:12:25,610 --> 00:12:31,100
pres progesterone first, then we, we
can have estrogen dominance and that
226
00:12:31,550 --> 00:12:33,920
also can have a tendency to increase.
227
00:12:34,890 --> 00:12:38,700
And so there's just all these
little pieces that add, it's,
228
00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:40,980
it's like a puzzle of Right.
229
00:12:40,980 --> 00:12:43,050
10, 15 pieces that add to that.
230
00:12:43,260 --> 00:12:43,530
Speaker: Mm-hmm.
231
00:12:43,770 --> 00:12:46,350
Well, okay, so let's talk a
little bit, I don't like, I think
232
00:12:46,350 --> 00:12:49,355
most people kind of know what
perimenopause is and what menopause is.
233
00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:49,380
Mm-hmm.
234
00:12:49,680 --> 00:12:53,310
But when you were just
saying that the estrogen.
235
00:12:53,564 --> 00:12:54,405
Increases.
236
00:12:54,405 --> 00:12:58,635
Is that per, is that perimenopause
that that happens or more Yeah, so
237
00:12:58,755 --> 00:13:02,265
Speaker 2: perimenopause, we're gonna
see progesterone start to decline
238
00:13:02,265 --> 00:13:07,485
first, and when that declines, we have
more incidents of estrogen dominance.
239
00:13:08,595 --> 00:13:13,515
We see perimenopause in the late thirties
and, and typically in the forties.
240
00:13:13,694 --> 00:13:17,055
And it's not that hormones are just like.
241
00:13:17,805 --> 00:13:20,354
Going down, down, down,
it's, we're seeing shifts.
242
00:13:20,354 --> 00:13:22,005
We're seeing things that are up and down.
243
00:13:22,425 --> 00:13:29,084
Progesterone is the hormone that we
see decline first, and so we wanna have
244
00:13:29,084 --> 00:13:30,795
estrogen and progesterone balanced.
245
00:13:31,005 --> 00:13:33,734
But if we're seeing a decline
in progesterone and estrogen
246
00:13:33,734 --> 00:13:35,060
staying high, that creates.
247
00:13:36,015 --> 00:13:39,555
Estrogen dominance, so having too much
estrogen and too little progesterone,
248
00:13:39,675 --> 00:13:45,194
and that in and of itself can cause
heavier periods, maybe fibroids.
249
00:13:45,375 --> 00:13:45,464
Mm-hmm.
250
00:13:45,704 --> 00:13:47,025
Dense breast tissue.
251
00:13:47,745 --> 00:13:50,589
PMS, those are some of the common.
252
00:13:51,070 --> 00:13:53,230
Signs of tro, I think I have all
253
00:13:53,230 --> 00:13:53,320
Speaker: those.
254
00:13:53,860 --> 00:13:54,220
Yeah.
255
00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:56,980
Speaker 2: And we can see that
even before perimenopause.
256
00:13:56,980 --> 00:14:01,210
I see that in a lot of individuals
and we have synthetic estrogens
257
00:14:01,210 --> 00:14:05,020
that people can get exposed to
that will also compound that.
258
00:14:05,020 --> 00:14:05,110
Mm-hmm.
259
00:14:05,350 --> 00:14:10,245
And so we wanna be careful around,
you know, plastics and receipts
260
00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:14,650
and, and different things like that
are, are personal care products.
261
00:14:14,710 --> 00:14:14,800
Mm-hmm.
262
00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:19,870
That can have that influence on the
synthetic estrogens, uh, as well.
263
00:14:19,870 --> 00:14:20,110
So.
264
00:14:20,670 --> 00:14:21,000
Speaker: Okay.
265
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:21,510
That's good to know.
266
00:14:21,510 --> 00:14:21,869
I dunno if that
267
00:14:21,869 --> 00:14:22,619
Speaker 2: answers your question.
268
00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:23,489
Speaker: No, it does.
269
00:14:23,489 --> 00:14:26,010
And, and that kind of
talks about perimenopause.
270
00:14:26,130 --> 00:14:26,219
Mm-hmm.
271
00:14:26,459 --> 00:14:26,520
Okay.
272
00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:31,020
So then, and, and when you talk
about like not sleeping as well.
273
00:14:31,199 --> 00:14:31,290
Mm-hmm.
274
00:14:31,530 --> 00:14:32,760
So then I went, ding, ding.
275
00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:36,900
So your hormone then is starting to
affect your stress, your cortisol,
276
00:14:36,930 --> 00:14:38,579
'cause you're not sleeping as much.
277
00:14:38,609 --> 00:14:38,699
Mm-hmm.
278
00:14:38,939 --> 00:14:40,260
So that's playing a role too.
279
00:14:40,260 --> 00:14:41,790
So, so definitely.
280
00:14:41,790 --> 00:14:41,910
And
281
00:14:41,910 --> 00:14:44,160
Speaker 2: progesterone is particularly.
282
00:14:44,470 --> 00:14:48,670
When we think about progesterone, that
is the hormone that is more calming.
283
00:14:49,300 --> 00:14:49,480
Yes.
284
00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:52,300
And it does help to promote good sleep.
285
00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:57,430
And so in that perimenopausal timeframe,
sometimes we'll use some bioidentical
286
00:14:57,760 --> 00:15:04,000
hormone, just progesterone before bed
to help people with that sleep and, and
287
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:05,740
feel more calm and and type of thing.
288
00:15:05,740 --> 00:15:06,610
So it can be really helpful.
289
00:15:07,349 --> 00:15:07,770
I, in
290
00:15:07,770 --> 00:15:09,390
Speaker: fact, I did do that.
291
00:15:09,395 --> 00:15:09,645
Mm-hmm.
292
00:15:09,729 --> 00:15:12,270
And I did not have, uh, hormone cancer.
293
00:15:12,270 --> 00:15:17,130
So that is not what led, but I did do
that, and I do remember the relief I felt.
294
00:15:17,430 --> 00:15:17,550
Mm-hmm.
295
00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:19,410
Um, and I was able to sleep.
296
00:15:19,410 --> 00:15:23,880
And then la la, la la la time
moved on and menopause kicks in.
297
00:15:24,030 --> 00:15:24,209
Mm-hmm.
298
00:15:24,479 --> 00:15:28,050
So tell us just really quick
what that is and then things kind
299
00:15:28,050 --> 00:15:29,280
Speaker 2: of changed again for me.
300
00:15:29,310 --> 00:15:29,880
Right.
301
00:15:30,329 --> 00:15:35,099
So we define menopause as not
having a period for 12 months.
302
00:15:35,340 --> 00:15:37,439
And that's when it's kind
of typically menopause.
303
00:15:37,500 --> 00:15:41,550
And that can be rarely in
the thirties, but typically
304
00:15:41,550 --> 00:15:43,320
late forties and and fifties.
305
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:45,060
So the average age is about 51.
306
00:15:45,420 --> 00:15:50,970
And, and with that, the estrogen
starts to decline and sometimes
307
00:15:50,970 --> 00:15:52,080
it's gonna bounce around.
308
00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:55,710
So when women go into the clinic and
they say, I wanna have my hormones
309
00:15:55,710 --> 00:15:57,510
checked, we could look at estradiol.
310
00:15:57,930 --> 00:16:02,340
Uh, but it isn't as accurate unless
we're doing a specific test where
311
00:16:02,340 --> 00:16:04,260
we're testing at a particular, um.
312
00:16:05,385 --> 00:16:08,985
Time of the month unless
you're postmenopausal.
313
00:16:09,314 --> 00:16:13,635
And so there's the main hormone that
they look at is what's called FSH.
314
00:16:13,665 --> 00:16:18,495
If we're going to be doing a
test to assess menopause in
315
00:16:18,495 --> 00:16:19,935
women that haven't had a period.
316
00:16:20,595 --> 00:16:20,715
Um, so.
317
00:16:22,265 --> 00:16:27,335
During post menopause, then we see very
little, a little bit, but very little
318
00:16:27,515 --> 00:16:29,645
estrogen and progesterone production.
319
00:16:29,675 --> 00:16:29,765
Mm-hmm.
320
00:16:30,005 --> 00:16:33,845
And then those symptoms typically are
gonna be night sweats, hot flashes,
321
00:16:34,175 --> 00:16:37,775
vaginal dryness, lower libido,
and we can see some of these in
322
00:16:37,775 --> 00:16:39,845
that perimenopausal time For sure.
323
00:16:39,845 --> 00:16:39,905
Um.
324
00:16:41,110 --> 00:16:47,260
Sleep changes, energy changes, uh, we can
start to see a decline in bone density.
325
00:16:47,260 --> 00:16:47,350
Mm-hmm.
326
00:16:47,590 --> 00:16:52,270
Uh, after, after the hormones, after a
period hasn't been present for a year,
327
00:16:52,420 --> 00:16:56,380
that's when typically they're gonna
recommend that women have a bone density.
328
00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:59,890
Um, just to assess kind of where
things are at, see some hair changes.
329
00:16:59,950 --> 00:17:04,000
Um, so those, those would
be symptoms of menopause.
330
00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:10,589
Speaker: Okay, so now what I wanna do is
I wanna talk about, and I think we've kind
331
00:17:10,589 --> 00:17:16,740
of covered it, but what are things that we
can do to ha help our hormones naturally?
332
00:17:17,010 --> 00:17:17,099
Mm-hmm.
333
00:17:17,345 --> 00:17:17,615
Mm-hmm.
334
00:17:17,700 --> 00:17:19,589
And then I wanna talk about.
335
00:17:20,430 --> 00:17:24,540
Because it is a trick to
figure out your hormone levels.
336
00:17:24,900 --> 00:17:24,960
Yeah.
337
00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:25,770
And how do you know?
338
00:17:25,770 --> 00:17:30,270
And there's all kinds of, I think there's
controversy about is it good, is it bad?
339
00:17:30,360 --> 00:17:34,230
And I think you really wanna catch where
you're at with those and it fluctuates.
340
00:17:34,290 --> 00:17:34,500
Mm-hmm.
341
00:17:34,506 --> 00:17:36,390
So I wanna get into that a little bit too.
342
00:17:36,390 --> 00:17:39,840
So what can we do, because
I can't take hormone.
343
00:17:39,885 --> 00:17:40,815
Mm-hmm.
344
00:17:40,950 --> 00:17:44,115
You know, and I am on an oxygen
blocker since breast cancer.
345
00:17:44,115 --> 00:17:44,205
Mm-hmm.
346
00:17:44,205 --> 00:17:47,745
And I know, you know, one in eight women
might be going through what I'm going
347
00:17:47,745 --> 00:17:48,945
through, who are listening to this.
348
00:17:49,095 --> 00:17:49,185
Mm-hmm.
349
00:17:49,250 --> 00:17:53,175
But I just have to ask too, a
little bit for my own wellbeing.
350
00:17:53,415 --> 00:17:53,565
Mm-hmm.
351
00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:54,090
What can
352
00:17:54,095 --> 00:17:54,615
Speaker 2: I do?
353
00:17:55,004 --> 00:17:56,025
Yeah, sure.
354
00:17:56,504 --> 00:18:00,315
Well, these are great questions
and so I'm gonna kind of try
355
00:18:00,315 --> 00:18:02,055
to answer each one of those.
356
00:18:03,150 --> 00:18:06,090
Natural ways, and that's one of the
things that I work on with women
357
00:18:06,090 --> 00:18:10,260
in the program that I have, and
it is helping to balance hormones.
358
00:18:10,260 --> 00:18:12,270
And so nutrition is really important.
359
00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:19,650
We want to, and, and for you too, Lisa,
not being able to use hormones, but being
360
00:18:19,650 --> 00:18:26,970
able to really optimize health stress
is gonna be a huge thing to manage, but
361
00:18:26,970 --> 00:18:31,800
then nutrition, bringing in cruciferous
vegetables is going to be helpful.
362
00:18:32,715 --> 00:18:36,405
Whether you're on hormones or not,
genetics is gonna give us a clue
363
00:18:36,405 --> 00:18:38,775
about how we metabolize estrogen.
364
00:18:39,195 --> 00:18:41,415
Uh, and then you mentioned some testing.
365
00:18:41,415 --> 00:18:44,865
I recommend Dutch hormone testing
because we're gonna look at, you
366
00:18:44,865 --> 00:18:49,155
know, a, where those hormone levels
are, but then also and, and also
367
00:18:49,155 --> 00:18:52,365
cortisol 'cause that is gonna have
an influence on our sex hormones.
368
00:18:52,605 --> 00:18:54,465
The other piece that it looks at is.
369
00:18:54,965 --> 00:18:55,745
Metabolites.
370
00:18:56,135 --> 00:18:59,705
And when we have estrogen, whether
it's in our being made by our our
371
00:18:59,705 --> 00:19:05,705
ovaries, or we're using a bioidentical
form of estradiol, then we wanna
372
00:19:05,705 --> 00:19:08,165
make sure that it's safe, right?
373
00:19:08,344 --> 00:19:08,435
Speaker: Mm-hmm.
374
00:19:08,764 --> 00:19:12,034
Speaker 2: Again, whether it's our
body producing it or it is, um.
375
00:19:14,595 --> 00:19:15,675
It is being given.
376
00:19:15,764 --> 00:19:19,455
And so we can look to see how
your body is metabolizing it,
377
00:19:19,635 --> 00:19:24,465
genetics influence that from the
standpoint of detox and methylation.
378
00:19:24,795 --> 00:19:27,825
I know we're, I don't wanna get
too sciencey, but we wanna look to
379
00:19:27,825 --> 00:19:31,875
make sure that it's going down the
right pathway and not producing
380
00:19:32,145 --> 00:19:34,185
metabolites that would increase risk.
381
00:19:34,185 --> 00:19:37,845
For in men it would be prostate
cancer and in women breast cancer.
382
00:19:37,845 --> 00:19:38,025
Right.
383
00:19:38,025 --> 00:19:38,985
Or potentially ovarian.
384
00:19:39,045 --> 00:19:42,254
And so if people are gonna consider using.
385
00:19:42,620 --> 00:19:46,939
Hormone replacement therapy, it's
ideal to use that in the first 10.
386
00:19:46,945 --> 00:19:47,054
10.
387
00:19:47,090 --> 00:19:50,719
Within the first 10 years, it's gonna
have a much more impact on brain health,
388
00:19:50,929 --> 00:19:53,149
cardiovascular health, bone health.
389
00:19:53,149 --> 00:19:57,919
Just overall, when we start it later than
that, it doesn't have as much benefit.
390
00:19:58,250 --> 00:19:58,550
Okay.
391
00:19:58,550 --> 00:20:04,250
But the, but the key is we want to
look at each woman individually.
392
00:20:04,399 --> 00:20:04,490
Mm-hmm.
393
00:20:04,730 --> 00:20:06,800
And see what their risk factors are.
394
00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:08,270
What is their metabolic health like?
395
00:20:08,419 --> 00:20:09,659
Because we know that if.
396
00:20:10,335 --> 00:20:12,195
Metabolic health is not good.
397
00:20:12,315 --> 00:20:16,125
We increase risk for cancers, not
just breast, but other cancers.
398
00:20:16,125 --> 00:20:16,455
Right?
399
00:20:16,605 --> 00:20:19,995
We wanna look at genetic pieces
to see, are you methylating?
400
00:20:19,995 --> 00:20:21,945
Well, what are your detox pathways?
401
00:20:22,185 --> 00:20:22,305
Right?
402
00:20:22,305 --> 00:20:24,045
And we wanna look at history.
403
00:20:24,165 --> 00:20:27,045
Do you have that history of
estrogen dominance where you
404
00:20:27,045 --> 00:20:30,255
had dense breast tissue, you had
fibroids, you had heavy periods.
405
00:20:30,255 --> 00:20:31,095
You had PMS.
406
00:20:31,215 --> 00:20:31,305
Mm-hmm.
407
00:20:31,545 --> 00:20:34,875
All of these other pieces, because if you
have that in your history, it can give
408
00:20:34,875 --> 00:20:38,565
us clues about what risks you may have.
409
00:20:38,930 --> 00:20:41,120
In using bioidentical hormone therapy.
410
00:20:41,300 --> 00:20:45,770
So we wanna take each individual and,
and kinda look at all of these pieces
411
00:20:46,970 --> 00:20:50,480
answering the thing that we can do
from what can we do from a natural
412
00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:52,935
standpoint, it is gonna be Whole Foods.
413
00:20:54,225 --> 00:21:01,455
Healthy fats, adequate protein, getting
in movement, managing cortisol, managing
414
00:21:01,455 --> 00:21:08,055
stress, um, and we know that alcohol
will raise aromatase and that then
415
00:21:08,055 --> 00:21:10,754
can increase risk of breast cancer.
416
00:21:10,845 --> 00:21:17,595
And so if women are using, you know, more
than maybe a glass of wine a week, it's,
417
00:21:17,955 --> 00:21:19,995
we wanna be very cautious with that.
418
00:21:20,295 --> 00:21:21,205
Uh, and then.
419
00:21:21,915 --> 00:21:26,475
Also if women are going to use hormones,
and I do bioidentical hormone therapy
420
00:21:26,475 --> 00:21:32,265
myself, uh, I test, you know, we
get tests done, but then also I use
421
00:21:32,325 --> 00:21:35,985
some products that are gonna really
help with that methylation piece.
422
00:21:36,165 --> 00:21:37,965
So there's a couple
supplements to bring in.
423
00:21:38,325 --> 00:21:41,145
And even in individuals that
aren't using hormones, if there
424
00:21:41,145 --> 00:21:44,775
are symptoms of estrogen dominance,
then they can be very helpful.
425
00:21:44,775 --> 00:21:45,345
So, right.
426
00:21:45,495 --> 00:21:46,965
I, I, I think I kept going,
427
00:21:47,265 --> 00:21:48,405
Speaker: no, I love that.
428
00:21:48,405 --> 00:21:50,265
And this is what I wanna jump in and say.
429
00:21:51,165 --> 00:21:51,235
Yeah, because.
430
00:21:51,540 --> 00:21:55,050
I know that if I were sitting
here listening who I am,
431
00:21:55,740 --> 00:21:57,120
I would wanna know more.
432
00:21:57,120 --> 00:21:58,410
I would wanna get this done.
433
00:21:58,410 --> 00:21:58,860
I wanna get it.
434
00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:01,740
I would wanna, I would wanna
figure this out, and this is what
435
00:22:01,740 --> 00:22:03,060
I want the listeners to know.
436
00:22:03,120 --> 00:22:03,210
Mm-hmm.
437
00:22:03,450 --> 00:22:04,860
Marie is here for you.
438
00:22:04,860 --> 00:22:04,920
Yeah.
439
00:22:05,220 --> 00:22:07,650
So connect with her because.
440
00:22:08,445 --> 00:22:12,735
That is how you're going to have
someone who can scientifically look
441
00:22:12,735 --> 00:22:14,025
at your body, and I've done it.
442
00:22:14,295 --> 00:22:19,455
Look at your gene, look at is this
safe for you to use this hormone?
443
00:22:19,455 --> 00:22:21,195
Would it be beneficial?
444
00:22:21,405 --> 00:22:21,495
Mm-hmm.
445
00:22:21,735 --> 00:22:24,585
And I kinda like hearing,
I think I'm almost 10 years
446
00:22:24,585 --> 00:22:26,745
out of, you know what I mean?
447
00:22:26,745 --> 00:22:30,615
So maybe, and I did do a little
bit of hormone therapy, so maybe
448
00:22:30,615 --> 00:22:33,675
I did it at really the right time
and that was all that I needed.
449
00:22:34,095 --> 00:22:34,425
Mm-hmm.
450
00:22:34,665 --> 00:22:34,675
Mm-hmm.
451
00:22:34,725 --> 00:22:37,520
But that's what, I don't want this
because we're throwing out a lot of tests.
452
00:22:37,940 --> 00:22:43,460
And things, what I want you to know is
Marie can lead you and she's led me to
453
00:22:43,460 --> 00:22:50,090
which test works and, and she can learn
about it and then you so beautifully
454
00:22:50,300 --> 00:22:52,550
will share what supplements work.
455
00:22:53,344 --> 00:22:56,885
You give us, you know, links to
a great place to get them where
456
00:22:56,885 --> 00:23:00,125
we maybe save a little bit of
money on a high quality product.
457
00:23:00,425 --> 00:23:04,324
So this doesn't have to sound
overwhelming or scary, right?
458
00:23:04,324 --> 00:23:08,615
It is for you to just
investigate, do it for yourself.
459
00:23:08,615 --> 00:23:12,155
Because in order for you to be there
for all the other people in your
460
00:23:12,155 --> 00:23:14,615
world, you gotta take care of yourself.
461
00:23:14,645 --> 00:23:14,764
Mm-hmm.
462
00:23:15,004 --> 00:23:20,764
And Marie, I think what's so interesting
is I did all of this except there were.
463
00:23:20,845 --> 00:23:25,885
Two pieces in my journey that I
was missing and one was, thank you
464
00:23:25,885 --> 00:23:29,755
for talking about wine, because
I had my breast surgeon on who
465
00:23:29,755 --> 00:23:31,705
has a private breast center.
466
00:23:31,975 --> 00:23:32,245
Mm-hmm.
467
00:23:32,485 --> 00:23:36,925
She said, wine, alcohol
causes breast cancer.
468
00:23:37,315 --> 00:23:37,405
Mm-hmm.
469
00:23:37,645 --> 00:23:41,515
And she actually said, Marie, that the
surgeon general before the one we have
470
00:23:41,515 --> 00:23:45,175
now, wanted to put that on every alcohol.
471
00:23:45,180 --> 00:23:45,190
Mm-hmm.
472
00:23:45,770 --> 00:23:50,060
Bottle so that women who just like
cigarettes say, this causes lung cancer,
473
00:23:50,060 --> 00:23:51,830
and for some reason it didn't happen.
474
00:23:52,100 --> 00:23:53,300
That's a big deal.
475
00:23:53,300 --> 00:23:54,050
And do you know?
476
00:23:54,050 --> 00:23:54,139
Mm-hmm.
477
00:23:54,379 --> 00:23:55,760
I grew up in the era of.
478
00:23:56,865 --> 00:24:00,375
I'd be stressed out all day, you know,
working with the kids and then I'd
479
00:24:00,375 --> 00:24:02,235
take my glass of wine to calm down.
480
00:24:02,535 --> 00:24:03,225
That was the wor.
481
00:24:03,225 --> 00:24:06,435
And I, like almost every night
would have a glass of wine.
482
00:24:06,435 --> 00:24:09,885
I wasn't a drunk, but that wasn't
healthy and I didn't feel good.
483
00:24:10,245 --> 00:24:11,145
Yeah, I didn't feel good.
484
00:24:11,145 --> 00:24:14,175
But every night I'd do it again
because I was like, oh, I'm, you
485
00:24:14,175 --> 00:24:15,915
feel good for maybe 20, 30 minutes.
486
00:24:16,425 --> 00:24:16,815
Yes.
487
00:24:17,055 --> 00:24:20,535
So the piece, so I was, and I think I was
maybe white knuckling it a little bit.
488
00:24:20,595 --> 00:24:22,215
Well, I better fast this long.
489
00:24:22,425 --> 00:24:23,685
I gotta work out this hard.
490
00:24:23,685 --> 00:24:23,775
Yes.
491
00:24:23,775 --> 00:24:25,095
And what I learned.
492
00:24:25,500 --> 00:24:30,000
I made it through chemo
beautifully because I chilled out.
493
00:24:30,300 --> 00:24:30,660
Yeah.
494
00:24:30,660 --> 00:24:30,995
I ate well.
495
00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:33,120
I went on walks, I lifted at home.
496
00:24:33,120 --> 00:24:34,560
I didn't kill myself.
497
00:24:35,190 --> 00:24:35,640
Mm-hmm.
498
00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:37,020
And I was so, I became so fit.
499
00:24:38,159 --> 00:24:41,100
So that's like a lesson
that we can all hold onto.
500
00:24:41,100 --> 00:24:44,939
So I just had to jump in and
say Maur bottle that she's
501
00:24:44,939 --> 00:24:45,450
Speaker 2: helped me.
502
00:24:46,020 --> 00:24:48,090
Yeah, no, and that's so true.
503
00:24:48,090 --> 00:24:52,860
And it, it is hard because I feel that
a lot of our social events are based
504
00:24:52,950 --> 00:24:55,770
around alcohol and not all, but many are.
505
00:24:55,770 --> 00:24:56,040
Yes.
506
00:24:56,310 --> 00:25:01,560
And I feel that it has
become this in, um, society.
507
00:25:01,590 --> 00:25:04,524
So, and it is something that I, I also.
508
00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:09,660
Was doing and, and actually the
Lord has said, Hey, you know what?
509
00:25:09,660 --> 00:25:11,595
This is not what I have
for you and mm-hmm.
510
00:25:11,790 --> 00:25:13,470
And I recognize that.
511
00:25:14,325 --> 00:25:17,985
I wasn't getting drunk and what have
you, but just, just being reliant on it.
512
00:25:18,015 --> 00:25:18,315
Oh man.
513
00:25:18,315 --> 00:25:18,525
Yeah.
514
00:25:18,525 --> 00:25:19,455
This has been a stressful day.
515
00:25:19,455 --> 00:25:21,315
I, I wanna have a glass
of wine when I get home.
516
00:25:21,315 --> 00:25:21,375
Yeah.
517
00:25:21,375 --> 00:25:24,825
Or choosing the restaurant I wanna
go to because this is, you know.
518
00:25:24,830 --> 00:25:25,070
Yeah.
519
00:25:25,210 --> 00:25:28,125
And it, and I don't wanna
have anything control me.
520
00:25:28,335 --> 00:25:30,345
And I felt that it was controlling me.
521
00:25:30,345 --> 00:25:33,645
And so just praying to say,
Lord, take away those desires.
522
00:25:33,795 --> 00:25:33,885
Yes.
523
00:25:33,975 --> 00:25:37,275
Uh, and fill those with
desires for things of you.
524
00:25:37,575 --> 00:25:40,815
And if you want me to step away
from this, I know it can be.
525
00:25:41,220 --> 00:25:42,870
Uh, not in my own strength.
526
00:25:42,900 --> 00:25:47,520
And that's, yeah, it was a prayer
for a long time for me, but I do feel
527
00:25:47,580 --> 00:25:49,410
confident that's what he wanted for me.
528
00:25:49,410 --> 00:25:57,330
And, and when you mentioned earlier
about the whole why, my, why kids
529
00:25:57,330 --> 00:25:58,680
and my grandkids, I wanna chase them.
530
00:25:58,680 --> 00:25:59,400
I wanna run with them.
531
00:25:59,400 --> 00:25:59,730
I wanna, yeah.
532
00:26:00,030 --> 00:26:03,690
You know, go skiing with them in the,
in the winter and I want to slide and,
533
00:26:03,690 --> 00:26:07,770
and whatever, but it's, I want women
to know that their bodies can heal.
534
00:26:08,685 --> 00:26:09,915
That is my biggest thing.
535
00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:10,110
Yeah.
536
00:26:10,210 --> 00:26:12,070
And I want them to know that.
537
00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:19,860
They were created for purpose and, and it
isn't to be sick and, and to just settle.
538
00:26:19,860 --> 00:26:19,950
Yes.
539
00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:24,720
You, and, and it isn't about
medications and supplements.
540
00:26:24,930 --> 00:26:25,320
Sure.
541
00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:28,889
They're gonna play a little bit of a
role, but it's about these foundational
542
00:26:28,889 --> 00:26:35,070
pillars that we can put in place and just
little steps here and there and there
543
00:26:35,310 --> 00:26:37,560
that we can start that healing process.
544
00:26:37,620 --> 00:26:37,800
Yeah.
545
00:26:37,860 --> 00:26:40,680
Um, and so that's my why.
546
00:26:40,854 --> 00:26:45,054
I want women to know that they
can feel good, that they can heal.
547
00:26:45,445 --> 00:26:48,715
And with all of that knowledge
out there, I mean, it's just like,
548
00:26:48,715 --> 00:26:51,260
oh my gosh, everywhere you turn,
it's this, this, this, this, this.
549
00:26:51,260 --> 00:26:51,270
Mm-hmm.
550
00:26:51,745 --> 00:26:55,645
Like, there's a lot of confusion,
but when we pause and we listen
551
00:26:55,645 --> 00:26:57,205
to what the body's telling us
552
00:26:57,354 --> 00:26:57,445
Speaker: mm-hmm.
553
00:26:57,685 --> 00:26:58,524
Speaker 2: What's our gut like?
554
00:26:58,554 --> 00:26:59,395
What's our brain like?
555
00:26:59,399 --> 00:26:59,540
Yes.
556
00:26:59,665 --> 00:27:03,115
What's our, you know, all
of these pieces, then we can
557
00:27:03,115 --> 00:27:04,645
start learning what's going on.
558
00:27:04,645 --> 00:27:08,125
And that's what functional
medicine is all about, is looking
559
00:27:08,125 --> 00:27:10,104
at the root rather than Okay.
560
00:27:10,745 --> 00:27:11,735
Take this, take that.
561
00:27:11,735 --> 00:27:12,185
Take this.
562
00:27:12,290 --> 00:27:12,510
Yes.
563
00:27:12,690 --> 00:27:13,350
So at any rate.
564
00:27:14,115 --> 00:27:14,865
That's, I love that.
565
00:27:14,925 --> 00:27:15,045
And
566
00:27:15,045 --> 00:27:20,625
Speaker: we're all unique, we're all
unique individuals, so every one of us
567
00:27:20,655 --> 00:27:22,785
is going to need something different.
568
00:27:23,025 --> 00:27:23,115
Mm-hmm.
569
00:27:23,355 --> 00:27:27,254
Not like, you know, here you go,
let me give you the same dose.
570
00:27:27,254 --> 00:27:31,095
I give this, you know, 400
pound man, it's like, what?
571
00:27:31,260 --> 00:27:34,665
Like my husband and I go, he's
like almost twice my size.
572
00:27:34,965 --> 00:27:35,085
Mm-hmm.
573
00:27:35,325 --> 00:27:38,655
I mean, he used to be, now it's probably,
I'm getting a little closer, but No.
574
00:27:39,375 --> 00:27:42,645
You know, and then we'll get like
a a, a dosage that's the same.
575
00:27:43,935 --> 00:27:44,594
Of Advil or whatever.
576
00:27:44,594 --> 00:27:46,125
They tell us to take the same amount.
577
00:27:46,125 --> 00:27:47,685
I'm like, okay, that's right.
578
00:27:47,745 --> 00:27:48,885
That's just bananas.
579
00:27:48,885 --> 00:27:53,715
So I, I love, that's why I love working
with you because it is so individual
580
00:27:53,715 --> 00:27:59,175
and you're really looking at me and,
and I think, you know, for those of us
581
00:27:59,175 --> 00:28:01,605
out there, it, that is where it starts.
582
00:28:01,605 --> 00:28:03,165
Listen to your body.
583
00:28:03,165 --> 00:28:03,254
Mm-hmm.
584
00:28:03,254 --> 00:28:05,324
Listen to yourself,
because you're gonna learn.
585
00:28:05,324 --> 00:28:07,334
You can be a little
detective and learn a lot.
586
00:28:07,340 --> 00:28:07,389
Mm-hmm.
587
00:28:07,469 --> 00:28:08,230
Even without the test.
588
00:28:09,470 --> 00:28:10,070
For sure.
589
00:28:10,340 --> 00:28:10,670
Yep, for
590
00:28:10,670 --> 00:28:10,940
Speaker 2: sure.
591
00:28:10,940 --> 00:28:14,510
That is the number one place to start
is getting a really good history,
592
00:28:14,780 --> 00:28:18,800
understanding what were your periods
like, even if you are postmenopausal,
593
00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:19,940
what were they like before?
594
00:28:20,210 --> 00:28:20,450
Speaker: Right?
595
00:28:20,450 --> 00:28:20,630
Did
596
00:28:20,630 --> 00:28:21,920
Speaker 2: women have miscarriages?
597
00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:23,480
That gives us a clue where?
598
00:28:23,510 --> 00:28:26,480
Where does your mammogram show
dense fiber glandular tissue?
599
00:28:26,750 --> 00:28:27,950
That gives us a clue.
600
00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:31,760
I mean, all of these pieces give us
clues, and then looking at traditional
601
00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:34,340
labs that your practitioner may order.
602
00:28:35,730 --> 00:28:37,920
That isn't necessarily where optimal is.
603
00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:40,710
For instance, we talked a little bit
about metabolic health before We wanna
604
00:28:40,710 --> 00:28:42,510
see a fasting blood sugar under 84.
605
00:28:42,810 --> 00:28:43,110
Speaker: Yeah.
606
00:28:43,170 --> 00:28:46,170
Speaker 2: We, you know, I see so
many times where blood sugars are like
607
00:28:46,170 --> 00:28:51,090
ninety nine, a hundred and ten and
it's like, well, okay, we'll check
608
00:28:51,090 --> 00:28:52,920
it again in six months or a year.
609
00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:54,510
And it's like, we don't wanna wait.
610
00:28:55,185 --> 00:28:58,754
Again, we know that 88% of
chronic illnesses from metabolic
611
00:28:58,754 --> 00:29:01,335
health, we wanna nip that in
the butt and get after it soon.
612
00:29:01,365 --> 00:29:05,805
So, um, knowing what those
normal parameters versus what is
613
00:29:05,805 --> 00:29:07,365
optimal can be really helpful.
614
00:29:07,485 --> 00:29:07,935
So, yep.
615
00:29:08,385 --> 00:29:08,745
Speaker: Okay.
616
00:29:08,745 --> 00:29:10,095
Now we're almost running outta time.
617
00:29:10,095 --> 00:29:10,245
Yeah.
618
00:29:10,245 --> 00:29:14,775
But you have to ask one more little
thing, because you mentioned that
619
00:29:14,775 --> 00:29:16,875
you use hormone replacement therapy.
620
00:29:16,905 --> 00:29:17,385
Mm-hmm.
621
00:29:17,625 --> 00:29:17,635
Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.
622
00:29:17,895 --> 00:29:18,375
Speaker: So.
623
00:29:19,020 --> 00:29:21,120
When is it appropriate?
624
00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:24,420
And I know it, it is like, uh,
dependent on the individual.
625
00:29:24,420 --> 00:29:24,510
Mm-hmm.
626
00:29:24,510 --> 00:29:26,910
But when would that be a a, an appropriate
627
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:27,150
Speaker 2: mm-hmm.
628
00:29:27,510 --> 00:29:30,975
Speaker: For someone to get on
bioidenticals or, or mm-hmm.
629
00:29:31,050 --> 00:29:31,860
Or what have you.
630
00:29:32,610 --> 00:29:36,750
Speaker 2: I think looking, uh, I think
early on, if we're gonna use hormones
631
00:29:36,750 --> 00:29:40,350
again, we're gonna have much more
benefit if we start them within 10 years.
632
00:29:40,350 --> 00:29:40,410
Yeah.
633
00:29:41,730 --> 00:29:42,900
If women are.
634
00:29:43,665 --> 00:29:47,025
Having significant, and a lot of
times when I was working in the
635
00:29:47,025 --> 00:29:49,575
clinic practice, it would be like
night sweats and hot flashes.
636
00:29:49,575 --> 00:29:53,145
That would be the driver of people
using hormones, and I think that
637
00:29:53,145 --> 00:29:58,575
it certainly is helpful when I
have women go through the program.
638
00:29:59,909 --> 00:30:04,020
When we start working together,
we can put together pieces.
639
00:30:04,409 --> 00:30:07,770
And I already alluded to the,
the nutritional aspects mm-hmm.
640
00:30:08,010 --> 00:30:10,800
And the, um, alcohol being one.
641
00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:11,129
Right?
642
00:30:11,250 --> 00:30:11,520
Yep.
643
00:30:11,550 --> 00:30:17,100
Uh, which is, can, can be hard for people,
but then also not pushing our bodies.
644
00:30:17,189 --> 00:30:20,909
And like you said, you know, used to go
to the gym and, and I was working out
645
00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:24,060
so much and I wasn't seeing benefit.
646
00:30:24,090 --> 00:30:25,229
I had night sweats.
647
00:30:25,905 --> 00:30:29,565
Hot flashes when I was still
menstruating because I was
648
00:30:29,565 --> 00:30:30,945
just pushing myself too much.
649
00:30:30,945 --> 00:30:31,005
Yeah.
650
00:30:31,095 --> 00:30:36,795
And that just makes it worse, so, so if
you're having night sweats, hot flashes,
651
00:30:36,825 --> 00:30:38,535
sometimes people have a lot of brain fog.
652
00:30:38,835 --> 00:30:39,405
Um,
653
00:30:41,775 --> 00:30:44,265
I think it's then time to look at.
654
00:30:45,405 --> 00:30:47,115
Benefits versus risks, right?
655
00:30:47,235 --> 00:30:51,435
We wanna make sure that the benefits
outweigh the potential risks.
656
00:30:51,585 --> 00:30:52,815
And what are those risks?
657
00:30:52,815 --> 00:30:54,735
That's what I ask, right?
658
00:30:54,915 --> 00:30:59,625
Most of the time, we can get night
sweats and hot flashes to resolve.
659
00:31:00,365 --> 00:31:01,685
With natural methods.
660
00:31:01,865 --> 00:31:04,175
And so again, stress.
661
00:31:04,235 --> 00:31:07,955
Um, sometimes I'll use some
black koosh, sometimes rhubarb,
662
00:31:07,955 --> 00:31:09,275
so estro vera is rhubarb.
663
00:31:09,275 --> 00:31:10,205
That can be helpful.
664
00:31:10,595 --> 00:31:14,915
Uh, but most of it is gonna be
lifestyle and nutritional pieces that
665
00:31:14,915 --> 00:31:19,835
can, that can really shut down the,
um, night sweats and hot flashes.
666
00:31:19,835 --> 00:31:20,045
So,
667
00:31:20,045 --> 00:31:21,665
Speaker: well, and I have to say Marie.
668
00:31:21,670 --> 00:31:21,900
Mm-hmm.
669
00:31:21,980 --> 00:31:22,180
When.
670
00:31:22,825 --> 00:31:27,175
So if I occasionally, like once a
month might have a glass of wine.
671
00:31:27,235 --> 00:31:27,325
Mm-hmm.
672
00:31:27,565 --> 00:31:27,865
I get it.
673
00:31:27,925 --> 00:31:29,290
I start having hot mm-hmm.
674
00:31:29,290 --> 00:31:30,145
Like hot flashes.
675
00:31:30,175 --> 00:31:30,265
Yeah.
676
00:31:30,265 --> 00:31:34,345
I don't ever have them unless, and
that's probably because of that estrogen.
677
00:31:34,345 --> 00:31:40,195
So, so you're saying like, do everything
naturally that you can Yeah, I think,
678
00:31:40,195 --> 00:31:41,155
I think that's what you're saying.
679
00:31:41,185 --> 00:31:44,005
Speaker 2: Well I think, I think
that's, that just makes sense, right?
680
00:31:44,065 --> 00:31:44,275
Yep.
681
00:31:44,275 --> 00:31:45,535
To prevent disease.
682
00:31:45,865 --> 00:31:47,035
Um, no.
683
00:31:48,389 --> 00:31:49,679
It may be too hard for people.
684
00:31:50,310 --> 00:31:54,870
And so then we wanna look at if people's
metabolic health, if, if their blood
685
00:31:54,870 --> 00:31:59,730
sugars are elevated, their insulin levels
are elevated and they're using alcohol,
686
00:31:59,730 --> 00:32:01,004
I don't think people should use hormones.
687
00:32:02,370 --> 00:32:03,810
I don't, I don't believe they should.
688
00:32:04,110 --> 00:32:08,460
And I, I know Naasha Winter, she wrote
the book, metabolic Approach to Cancer.
689
00:32:08,460 --> 00:32:08,520
Yeah.
690
00:32:08,700 --> 00:32:11,460
She would say absolutely not.
691
00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:17,070
Um, and so that's, if we're doing the
right things, then I think that estrogen
692
00:32:17,070 --> 00:32:19,350
replacement therapy has a place and is.
693
00:32:19,810 --> 00:32:21,159
Definitely beneficial.
694
00:32:21,460 --> 00:32:21,610
Mm-hmm.
695
00:32:21,850 --> 00:32:24,250
Uh, so, and it is gonna be
helpful for bone density.
696
00:32:24,250 --> 00:32:26,500
It is gonna be helpful for
muscle, it is gonna be helpful
697
00:32:26,500 --> 00:32:27,700
for cardiovascular health.
698
00:32:27,940 --> 00:32:33,370
So there is a lot of benefits, um,
to using it in the right individuals.
699
00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:36,159
If people have strong family
history of breast cancer.
700
00:32:36,159 --> 00:32:39,565
If we look at genetics and there's
some risks, we can mitigate those
701
00:32:39,639 --> 00:32:42,885
risks with lifestyle in, in a
couple supplements to make it.
702
00:32:42,885 --> 00:32:43,004
Yep.
703
00:32:43,649 --> 00:32:44,250
Safer.
704
00:32:44,250 --> 00:32:47,250
And so it doesn't shut
the door on it at all.
705
00:32:47,939 --> 00:32:52,080
Um, E three is a very weak estrogen.
706
00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:53,490
It, it's estriol.
707
00:32:54,360 --> 00:33:01,139
And so using a little bit of E three,
um, vaginally oftentimes is acceptable.
708
00:33:01,139 --> 00:33:04,590
And of course, it, we, I always want
you to talk with your practitioner about
709
00:33:04,590 --> 00:33:06,870
things, um, but for vaginal health.
710
00:33:06,870 --> 00:33:11,490
And so that would be something that,
uh, would be certainly an option.
711
00:33:11,909 --> 00:33:12,450
For
712
00:33:12,450 --> 00:33:12,930
Speaker: vaginal health.
713
00:33:12,930 --> 00:33:15,270
Well, I'm gonna even like throw that in.
714
00:33:15,270 --> 00:33:18,855
Even me, who's on the estrogen
blocker, my oncologist mm-hmm.
715
00:33:18,935 --> 00:33:19,215
Said that.
716
00:33:19,215 --> 00:33:19,655
That's right.
717
00:33:20,575 --> 00:33:20,865
Speaker 2: Yeah.
718
00:33:20,865 --> 00:33:21,185
Mm-hmm.
719
00:33:21,270 --> 00:33:21,990
And prescribes it.
720
00:33:21,990 --> 00:33:22,139
Yeah, sure.
721
00:33:22,185 --> 00:33:22,465
Yeah.
722
00:33:22,524 --> 00:33:22,945
Mm-hmm.
723
00:33:23,085 --> 00:33:23,504
Mm-hmm.
724
00:33:23,669 --> 00:33:23,940
Yeah.
725
00:33:24,180 --> 00:33:27,510
So, and it's gonna depend
on, some practitioners are.
726
00:33:28,635 --> 00:33:33,465
Not aware of the functional medicine,
integrative medicine, you know,
727
00:33:33,465 --> 00:33:34,755
and some of those types of things.
728
00:33:34,755 --> 00:33:39,075
And, and there are others that are, that
are practicing traditional medicine.
729
00:33:39,075 --> 00:33:42,075
So it is helpful to have one
that has some knowledge and
730
00:33:42,075 --> 00:33:43,470
is trained and it's not that.
731
00:33:45,209 --> 00:33:48,480
I, I don't like those things that, you
know, they come out what your doctor
732
00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:50,219
isn't telling you and your doctor's bad.
733
00:33:50,219 --> 00:33:50,909
It's not that.
734
00:33:50,939 --> 00:33:52,980
Yeah, no, it's that they're
not, they're not knowledgeable.
735
00:33:52,980 --> 00:33:57,419
They don't, and they're knowledgeable,
but they just aren't aware of the
736
00:33:57,419 --> 00:34:01,679
functional medicine pieces and what
we look at and how we want to address
737
00:34:01,679 --> 00:34:05,250
things early and prevent disease
rather than waiting for it to occur.
738
00:34:05,250 --> 00:34:05,550
So.
739
00:34:05,830 --> 00:34:06,219
Yeah.
740
00:34:06,639 --> 00:34:09,429
Speaker: You know, and I just have
to add before we go, I think that's,
741
00:34:09,429 --> 00:34:12,009
so that's been so important to me.
742
00:34:12,009 --> 00:34:17,199
And I feel like God has always led
me to physicians who are open to it.
743
00:34:17,199 --> 00:34:17,290
Mm-hmm.
744
00:34:17,290 --> 00:34:19,299
So that I can work with you Marie.
745
00:34:19,389 --> 00:34:19,480
Mm-hmm.
746
00:34:19,839 --> 00:34:21,130
And my oncologist.
747
00:34:21,130 --> 00:34:25,960
Now my oncologist is not an a functional
assessment doctor, and I never would've
748
00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:27,699
thought I would've gone to the U of M.
749
00:34:28,359 --> 00:34:28,509
Mm-hmm.
750
00:34:28,511 --> 00:34:30,940
But when I went there, she, and it's Dr.
751
00:34:30,940 --> 00:34:32,679
Blaze, if anyone wants to know.
752
00:34:32,679 --> 00:34:32,739
Yeah.
753
00:34:33,205 --> 00:34:35,844
When I went to her, she looked at me.
754
00:34:35,875 --> 00:34:35,965
Mm-hmm.
755
00:34:36,745 --> 00:34:39,085
And she said, no, you don't need a port.
756
00:34:39,324 --> 00:34:41,304
You know, there were
different things and Sure.
757
00:34:41,304 --> 00:34:45,895
Some of the oncologists that I talked to
said, oh, don't cold cap for your hair.
758
00:34:45,955 --> 00:34:46,945
It won't really work.
759
00:34:46,945 --> 00:34:48,385
She said, cold cap for sure.
760
00:34:48,385 --> 00:34:48,475
Mm-hmm.
761
00:34:48,565 --> 00:34:52,225
And she said, make sure you
use ice on your hands and feet.
762
00:34:52,675 --> 00:34:52,764
Mm-hmm.
763
00:34:52,764 --> 00:34:54,054
So I don't have any neuropathy.
764
00:34:54,324 --> 00:34:55,525
Do you know?
765
00:34:56,094 --> 00:35:01,165
How rare it is for patients to
hear that from their physician.
766
00:35:01,315 --> 00:35:01,405
Mm-hmm.
767
00:35:01,645 --> 00:35:03,925
And so I would just like
to get that word out.
768
00:35:03,925 --> 00:35:06,655
Like it's not, I'm on
this team or that team.
769
00:35:06,655 --> 00:35:08,005
We're working together here.
770
00:35:08,005 --> 00:35:08,015
Right.
771
00:35:08,015 --> 00:35:09,205
And I feel like Right.
772
00:35:09,295 --> 00:35:14,545
I have been blessed with those physicians
and I would really like to share that.
773
00:35:14,545 --> 00:35:15,055
Mm-hmm.
774
00:35:15,295 --> 00:35:18,120
With more of them share my
story, which we're hoping to do,
775
00:35:18,625 --> 00:35:19,885
which I'm, I'm moving forward.
776
00:35:19,885 --> 00:35:20,455
I think you should.
777
00:35:20,785 --> 00:35:21,355
Yeah, totally.
778
00:35:21,710 --> 00:35:23,360
Speaker 2: Women can learn so much.
779
00:35:23,660 --> 00:35:26,150
And it is, you wanna be an
advocate for them, right?
780
00:35:26,150 --> 00:35:26,240
Yes.
781
00:35:26,240 --> 00:35:26,600
You've gone through it.
782
00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:26,780
Yes.
783
00:35:27,290 --> 00:35:28,730
So, um, yeah.
784
00:35:29,180 --> 00:35:29,360
Speaker: Yeah.
785
00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:29,795
I'd love you to hear that.
786
00:35:29,795 --> 00:35:32,420
And helping those doctors
too understand Right, right.
787
00:35:32,420 --> 00:35:35,120
How they did things right for
me and how they can do that too.
788
00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:35,420
So.
789
00:35:35,420 --> 00:35:36,020
Mm-hmm.
790
00:35:36,260 --> 00:35:38,810
For all my dear friend, I've
taken up so much of your time.
791
00:35:38,810 --> 00:35:40,700
I feel like this was so good.
792
00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:41,000
Yeah.
793
00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:42,800
And like there was so much information.
794
00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:47,150
And listeners, I promise I'm gonna do
an overview on my saddle up segment
795
00:35:47,150 --> 00:35:48,950
and I'm gonna talk about metabolic.
796
00:35:49,365 --> 00:35:49,815
Health.
797
00:35:50,145 --> 00:35:50,325
Mm-hmm.
798
00:35:50,565 --> 00:35:54,045
And just go to Marie.
799
00:35:54,135 --> 00:35:57,795
If you're ready to delve in and
you're ready to take care of you,
800
00:35:57,795 --> 00:35:59,205
it's like the great first step.
801
00:35:59,205 --> 00:35:59,985
So yeah.
802
00:36:00,015 --> 00:36:01,710
Thank you so much for
being, yeah, thank you.
803
00:36:02,300 --> 00:36:02,710
Love you.
