Highlights - In today’s Conversation, Dr. Stone defines Hashimoto’s Disease, why it is increasingly common and why it is such a primary focus of her practice. I ask Dr. Stone what’s behind the silent epidemic of low testosterone in young men and why Testosterone is something every guy should care about. We also discuss how strength training can directly effect our hormonal health.

Action Plan - it’s simple. Get your damn blood drawn and establish a baseline level of hormonal health. We talked about this on Ep. 60 with Dr. Kyle Gillett - you don’t have to wait until something hurts or your feel sick to benefit from blood testing. That’s the trap of modern healthcare - we all wait until we’re sick and then try and figure out how to treat our symptoms. What we should be doing is figuring out why we feel good and how to keep feeling that way!

That’s it for this week - make sure you’re subscribed so that you don’t miss next week’s episode with Tailored Nutrition Coach Brandon Whitehead and a conversation about all things gut health, gut-friendly food and gut-friendly lifestyle choices.

Until then - we wish you STRENGTH and GOOD HEALTH!
