    What happens during pelvic floor physical therapy?

    We've talked about pelvic floor issues a lot on this show. The pelvic floor is the bowl of muscles between your hips that holds all your pelvic organs. Weakened pelvic floor muscles can lead to bladder leakage and sexual pain and dysfunction. So what's the solution? Pelvic floor therapy is one option, but what exactly is it? Jenn Harrington is our guest in this episode. She's a pelvic floor physical therapist who shows Sarah what a typical PT visit is like, from assessment to excercises. You can find her at WakeMed.org.

    Protein, carbs, mushroom powders, fasting...a Q&A on nutrition fads

    Making the right nutrition choices for yourself isn't easy. There's so much info out there, where do you start? Add social media to the mix and you're probably getting a constant stream of contradicting, too-good-to-be true advice on what to eat and how often. To clear up the confusion, we're talking to an actual registered dietitian, Marissa Robinson, who has some very sensible advice on nutrition. You can find her at WakeMed.org.
