Ep. 234 Q+A: Macros, Hormones, Digestive Enzymes and IV drips
In this Q&A episode of Alpha Health and Wellness Radio, I’m diving into your questions on all things health, hormones, and wellness. These are some of the most common (and often confusing!) topics I hear from clients, listeners, and my community, so I’m excited to break them down in a way that’s simple, practical, and approachable.
Here’s what we cover in today’s episode:
Macros – do you need to track them, and how to use them as a tool without obsession
Balding & hair loss – root causes to explore beyond just “genetics” it is how our body is breaking down hormones and at it's root, a metabolic issue
Digestive enzymes – when they can be supportive and how to use them as proteolytic enzymes to breakup biofilms and cysts/fibroids in the body
Seed oils – better swaps like butter, tallow, ghee, avocado oil and olive oil
Low hormones – signs to look for and foundational steps for support on why our hormones are low
Castor oil packs – why they’re such a versatile and underrated tool as well as using topically to support glowing skin
Missing periods – how to approach cycle recovery from a root-cause perspective
B12 injections – who might benefit and what to know first and why I like quality supplementation over many IVs
Sauna during menstruation – is it safe, and how to listen to your body
Hormone testing after birth control – timing, accuracy, and what to consider
Menstrual cup recommendations – what to look for in a safe, comfortable option
