As a pioneer in holistic medicine, Dr. Taz has dedicated her career to merging Eastern and Western approaches to health, providing comprehensive care for the whole person — mind, body, and spirit.

She also reveals her favorite modalities, remedies, and supplements, explaining how nutrition, acupuncture, and key vitamins and minerals can support hormone health and reduce inflammation. We also explore Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT), breaking down how to know if and when it’s the right choice and if it can be protective for the heart and brain, while improving mood and well-being. For those focused on reproductive health, Dr. Taz also highlights the connection between fertility and gut health, emphasizing the role inflammation plays in hormonal balance.   Dr. Taz also touches upon the often-ignored emotional impact on hormones, explaining how emotions like anger, grief, and worry can deeply affect physical health and hormone levels. She offers insight into addressing these emotional triggers, making a strong case for a holistic approach to wellness. This episode is a must-listen for any woman seeking a deeper understanding of her body and its different hormonal stages.
