0:00.0	Welcome to the Functional Nutrition Podcast. I'm your host, Erin Holt. I'm a functional
0:07.4	medicine nutritionist with a feisty attitude in over a decade of clinical experience. I work with
0:13.3	women all over the world through my online programs, and I'm also the founder of the Functional
0:18.9	Nutrition Academy, a 12-month practitioner mentorship where I help other nutrition pros level up
0:25.3	with functional medicine methodologies.
0:27.9	I've got a bone to pick with diet culture and the conventional healthcare model
0:31.6	that are both systematically failing so many of us.
0:35.3	Creating a new model is my life's work, and this is what the show's all about.
0:40.4	Please keep in mind this podcast is created for educational purposes only and should never be
0:45.7	used as a replacement for medical diagnosis or treatment. If you like what you hear today,
0:50.9	I'd love for you to subscribe, leave a review in iTunes, share with a friend,
0:55.3	and keep coming back for more. Thanks for joining me. Now let's dive deep.
1:02.2	Hello, friends. It's Aaron back on the mic for another episode of the Functional Nutrition
1:07.1	podcast. The name of today's game is hormones. So we're going to do a new summer
1:13.6	series, like a little hormone shorties, 20 minutes or less, answering all of your questions
1:20.3	about hormones. Listen, if you want to submit a question, head over to Instagram. I'm doing a poll
1:25.5	every single week. So I make sure that I curate the content
1:28.5	that you want, that you need. So if you follow my stories, there will be a sticker where you could
1:35.0	submit questions. And this is basically a call and response. So I am answering literally your
1:41.3	questions, the ones that you put in. So be sure to be following me on Instagram
1:45.6	at the functional nutritionist and we can answer up all your hormone cues because there's a lot of
1:51.2	them. Hormones are kind of confusing, right? So we want to clear up some of that confusion
