Welcome to the Optimal Protein podcast. I'm Vanessa Spina.

Hello, my friends. Welcome back to the podcast. I'm your host, Vanessa, and I am so excited for today's episode.

We have another hormone expert, Esther Bloom, joining us. She is an integrative dietitian and menopause expert.

She has written five books on this topic and she's so incredibly knowledgeable.

Now, we did do an interview with her previously, which I will link in the show notes,

but we did get to cover some really specific areas about diet and supplements and the things

that we can do to really help navigate all the different hormonal shifts that women experience,

whether it is postpartum, perimenopause, or menopause.

And she really shares so much great insight and information that we haven't covered previously

on the other episodes about hormones.

So if you have been like me, you've been educating yourself on women's hormone health,

you're going to learn a ton from today's episode.

And you can check out the show notes for links to everything that we mentioned on the episode.

And be sure to join us in our Facebook group, the Optimal Protein podcast,

so we can continue to chat more about these super important topics when it comes to

women's health. Now, before we fully jump into the episode, I want to take a quick moment to

tell you about one of my very favorite supplements, magnesium, which we also talk about

in this episode in terms of helping support detoxification of hormones.

Stress is something that affects all of us in today's fast-paced world and can lead to

various issues.

Now, what if there was an answer to having better stress responses and that being just a key

nutrient?
