Degrees of Health Women Aren’t Broken. We’re Misinformed. | Food, Hormones and Healing with Dr Pauline Cox, MSc
Most of us were never taught what hormones actually do. We just noticed things getting weird - heavier periods, brain fog, random mood swings that made us question our entire personality.
And when we asked for help, we got vague answers. A prescription. Maybe a “come back in 6 months.”
That’s why we sat down with Pauline Cox, a functional nutritionist who’s actually good at explaining this stuff. She's worked with hundreds of women dealing with endometriosis, PCOS, low thyroid, fatigue, and all the “you’re fine” symptoms that so many of us learn to live with.
This episode is about finally understanding what’s going on and how much control we do actually have here. Through food, light, movement, supplements… but also, through knowing what to look for, and what to question.
