The Truth About Hormones: Why Every Woman Should Consider Menopause Therapy

The Truth About Hormones: Why Every Woman Should Consider Menopause Therapy

Want ad-free episodes, exclusives and access to community Q&As? Subscribe to Forever Strong Insider: https://foreverstrong.supercast.com

In this episode, I sit down with nutritional physiologist and friend Nick Barringer, PhD, to tackle a crucial, yet often misunderstood, topic: women's hormonal health. We expose the devastating impact of the Women's Health Initiative study and why millions of women are left untreated for menopause symptoms, leading to an increased risk of issues like osteoporosis and Alzheimer's.

This is a no-nonsense guide for every woman, regardless of age, who wants to understand her hormones and advocate for her health. We cover everything from the importance of muscle and a low-inflammation lifestyle to the truth about Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) for women.
