How Hormone Imbalances Affect Heart Health: Dr Jay Wrigley

Описание: Dr. Jay Wrigley, a functional medicine physician with 29 years of experience in hormonal biochemistry, shares groundbreaking insights about the connection between hormone balance, metabolic health, and heart disease risk. He explains how the dramatic hormonal changes during menopause can trigger inflammation and increase cardiovascular risk if not properly managed. The episode explores why traditional hormone replacement therapy using synthetic hormones can be problematic, while bioidentical hormones in physiological doses may be protective. Dr. Wrigley emphasizes that metabolic health through proper diet and lifestyle is crucial - especially during hormonal transitions. He challenges conventional wisdom about cholesterol and discusses why common blood tests like TSH may not tell the full story. The conversation provides practical strategies for optimizing hormone balance naturally through stress management, proper nutrition, and metabolic health, potentially helping listeners avoid serious health issues as they age.
