Summary

You may already know Lara as the author of Period Repair Manual which we'll talk about more today. Lara was one of my very first guests, and I'm excited to have her back on the show. In our first interview together we delved into what the pill is really doing to your hormones, and it has been one of my most popular episodes of the show, so if you missed it definitely go back and listen to episode 007.

She specializes in the area of hormone health, and she is the founder of larabriden.com where she educates the masses on maintaining healthy hormones!
