This episode kicks off with Kari and Dr. Carrie Jones discussing some of the myths about hormones. They move into the importance of tracking your cycle to see the effects it has on your health throughout the month.

Hormones take a lot of blame for unpleasant behaviors/feelings we experience during the month. There is definitely some truth to that blame but it’s not completely out of our control. Kari and Dr. Carrie talk about the importance of sleep, stress management, eliminating toxins from our environment, and limiting alcohol intake.

This episode wraps with a discussion about the DUTCH test and how it is used to get a comprehensive picture of your hormone makeup.
