The Female Health Solution Podcast

I am dedicating this episode to discussing your elimination diets, who needs them and the benefits vs. challenges. Certain elimination diets may not be right for every woman at every stage of life! It is also very easy to become obsessive over eliminating foods or create a restrict-binge cycle. Elimination diets might be helpful for a number of reasons - gut health, food allergies, inflammation, etc. The goal of this episode is to open the conversation around these issues and share ways you can improve your health.

I am dedicating today's episode to discussing how to achieve long term, sustainable weight loss. This is not going to be a conversation about "take this pill" or "just eat 5 carrots every day", but rather tools and mindset around getting results for good.

I am dedicating today's episode to discussing mood swings. So many women struggle with feeling out of control of their emotions and mental health, and it isn't a matter of just "being more positive."

Emotional highs and lows are not your fault, just a matter of having the right information and tools to resolve them. The goal of this episode is to open the conversation around these issues and share ways you can improve your health. DUTCH Test: https://drbethwestie.com/dutch-hormone-testing/

I am dedicating today's episode to discussing supplements. It can be tempting to throw supplements at a health issue because we heard that it worked for Aunt Pam, or to take anything that Dr. Google tells us. Supplements are much more individual, and although many won't hurt you, it's so important to understand what your specific body needs, how the supplements interact with each other and how to maximize the benefits. I am a huge fan of supplementation in general, because our nutrition as a nation is severely lacking. As long as we are taking into consideration the right factors and individuality of health, supplements can go a long way! The goal of this episode is to open the conversation around these issues and share ways you can improve your health. DUTCH hormone testing: https://drbethwestie.com/dutch-hormone-testing/

Tallene is a PCOS Weight Loss registered dietitian and a strong believer that you don't just have to live with PCOS, you can thrive with PCOS. She was diagnosed at age 18, and left scared and confused without much information or guidance from her practitioner. Unsatisfied with the generally accepted belief that birth control is the only way to manage a PCOS diagnosis (and disheartened after failed attempts at weight loss through excessive exercise and dieting), Tallene decided to look for alternative options. She studied nutritional science and became a dietitian, gathering information from her studies, speaking extensively with various health experts who are now guests on her and her husband's podcast, and working with clients one-on-one. She discovered that eliminating gluten and dairy as a huge key to living healthier with PCOS, and together with her husband Sirak (a PCOS-focused personal trainer), developed a program meant to make living with the diagnosis easier to both understand and embrace. Tallene has helped thousands of women manage their PCOS symptoms and is living proof that anyone can overcome PCOS and lose weight naturally by going gluten and dairy free! Sirak is a PCOS Personal Trainer and a strong supporter of women struggling with PCOS. He has taken his skills as an engineer and applied his creative genius to editing and producing the content within our membership and social media channels. He co-hosts our podcast and brings a light hearted and understanding approach to PCOS management. When Tallene and Sirak met, he swept her off her feet with the slow, weighted workout approach that has now become part of the PCOS Weight Loss Method.
