In this BONUS episode, Dr. Kate dispels 3 menopause myths that hold you back from a healthy menopausal transition.

Approximately 60 to 70 percent of people with thyroid dysfunction don’t know they have it. How can this happen, you ask? Well, part of the problem has to do with how and when we test the thyroid, part of it has to do with a lack of awareness about the prevalence of thyroid dysfunction, and a BIG part of the problem is the similarity of symptoms related to both thyroid and stress.

One of the easiest, most effective ways to manage chronic stress is by balancing your blood sugar. Having "rollercoaster blood sugar levels" that spike and crash over the course of the day (and night) is a huge physical stress trigger, exponentially increasing the output of cortisol, your body's long-term stress hormone. AND, wonky blood sugar levels lead to other problematic symptoms and disease processes like insomnia, chronic inflammation, type 2 Diabetes, and weight gain. And by weight gain, I mean an increase in body fat - which is a stressor in itself!

Did you know that between 50 and 60% of women will experience a UTI (urinary tract infection) in their lifetime? While typically not super dangerous, UTI’s are no fun. You’ve got the often-intense burning with urination, a sense of urgency, and feeling like you have to pee all the time, even if you just went and hardly anything comes out. UTI’s can also cause abdominal pain, back pain, and - if not addressed in a timely manner - can progress to something more serious like a kidney infection.

A good many gals people stuck in a cycle of UTI’s where they don’t stay away. According to one study, about 26% of women have a recurrence during the six months after treatment for their initial UTI, and in a different study, 53% of women aged more than 55 years, and 36% of younger women, reported a recurrence within 1 year after their first UTI was treated.

That’s why Dr. Kate is sharing some of her go-to strategies for helping folks break the UTI cycle using lifestyle changes & specific nutraceutical support in this episode of the Stress Better Podcast.
