Welcome to Sex, Body and Soul. I'm Kate Roberts, founder of the body agency, and on this show,

we talk about the marvel that is our bodies, what they can do and what they need to thrive.

Ladies out there, our time is now. Let's get to it. So, are you feeling dirty today? And no, I'm not talking about your latest sexy moves. I'm talking

about do you feel chronic fatigue, hair loss, bad gas, skin issues. The list goes on. That probably

means that you have toxins in your body. And you're probably a little dirty already. Dr. Wendy Tronau, a functional

medicine practitioner with more than 30 years experience of both having these symptoms

herself in her body and feeling that way to practicing to help others. She knows all this too well.

She's the author of the book Dirty Girl,

and we are going to be talking about what toxins we are putting in our bodies,

often unaware, and why they are causing chaos and illness.

We have the original Dr. Dirty Girl, Dr. Wendy Trubo. Welcome to the show.

Thanks so much, Kate. It's great to be here.

Well, I have been absolutely pumped for this show because, as my whole world knows, I am absolutely obsessed with what goes into my body.

And I have been also obsessively watching the

Netflix show, Live to 100 in the Blue Zones. I'm sure you've heard about it. And what those people do,

what do they put in their bodies? And not just what you put in your bodies, but also how you

live your life and lifestyle.

And you are a very successful author, but more to the point, you are a functional medicine gynecologist.

What on earth is that?

Well, I was a classically trained gynecologist, OBGYN.

And then I left surgery and left delivering babies and left traditional office practice

and went into functional medicine.
