In this episode we meet with Dr Carrie Jones, an integrative functional medicine doctor, to learn about hormones and how they affect our mental and physical well-being. Did you know that just as you should have a regular check-up on your blood sugar, cholesterol level, and blood pressure, you also have a lot to gain by checking up regularly on your hormones? And we are not only talking testosterone and estrogene. In fact we have more than 60 hormones in our body, and in this episode we learn that our hormones are besties that talk to each other every day. Dr Carrie Jones is, as she writes herself, “a modern doctor with a holistic bent who can appreciate the best of both worlds”. She has been the medical director of two big clinics in Portland, Oregon and lectures all over the world on the topic of hormones. Currently she is the Medical Director for Precision Analytical, which is the creator of the most cutting edge hormone test on the market, the DUTCH Test.
