We’ve all heard them — little “rules” about health that get repeated so often that they start to sound like facts. But some of the most common health myths can actually hold you back from taking care of yourself in the ways that matter most. In this episode of Headed to Healthier, I’m busting 5 myths I hear all the time in clinic. We’ll talk about why these beliefs aren’t true and how you can make better choices for your health moving forward. You’ll learn why: Feeling fine doesn’t mean you can skip your annual checkup “Normal” cholesterol isn’t the whole story for heart health Peri-menopause is more than just hot flashes Persistent fatigue isn’t always “just stress” Exercise doesn’t give you a free pass on nutrition Knowledge is power — and by breaking free from these myths, you’ll be better equipped to make decisions that truly support your health. ------ Please join the Facebook community and share with us some of your biggest takeaways from this great episode.  Headed to Healthier Facebook Community https://www.facebook.com/share/g/1JPbM9cYQT/ If you loved this episode, please share it with a friend and take a moment to subscribe and leave a review on Apple Podcasts!
