Hormones are chemicals that tell the various organs and glands what to do and when to do it.

Modern day research started in the late 1800.s

Hormone Replacement Therapy explored

Menopause, a natural occurrence with modern day problems because of toxicity

Some emails:  Can you pls ask the Doctor is she know the T.S. Wiley Bio-Identical Hormonal Replacement Protocol and what she thinks about it?

One school of thought is that during menopause the cessation of monthly cycles allows toxins to build up and interfere with hormones.

Another general health principle is that most conditions are usually related to a combination of nutrient deficiency and toxicity. Would Dr. Epstein agree with these ideas and thus the possibility that hormonal issues could be resolved by cleaning up the diet and careful detoxification protocols?  Or are there some times when supplemental hormones should be administered?

How about vitamins ? Do they affect hormones

Can Dr. Epstein talk about the role of pregnenolone? Dr. Ray Peat suggests supplementing with it as a neuro protective. What does Dr. Epstein think of supplementation? Thanks!
