Ep181: Demystifying Hormones with Holistic Pharmacist Heather Rhodes

Hearing the word “hormones” is a bit like nails on a chalkboard to an OB/GYN. There is so much misinformation out there that it’s hard not to feel skeptical about this topic. However, today’s guest, Dr. Heather Rhodes, takes a balanced, science-based approach to her work that I find really refreshing.Dr. Rhodes is a holistic pharmacist with a passion for women's health. Haven’t heard of a “holistic pharmacist” before? Neither had I! She’ll tell you all about it in the episode - essentially it means that she’s taking what she learned form pharmacology and applying it to holistic hormone healthcare. I love getting to the root cause of issues and her approach is all about treating the cause more than the symptoms.In this Episode, You’ll Learn About:-Why Heather chose to classify herself as a holistic pharmacist-What made her decide to focus her work on hormone balance-Which hormones are most important for fertility and overall health-How she defines hormone balance / imbalance-Why she advocates for a combination of traditional and modern medicine-How hormones are affected by our daily choices---Full website notes: drnicolerankins.com/episode181Check out The Birth Preparation CourseRegister for the class How to Create a Birth Plan the Right WayTake a quick, fun labor pain quizLearn more about donating your cord blood and get up to $100 Amazon gift card! --> thecordbloodgroup.com/drnicoleOur Sponsors:* Check out Avocado Green Mattress: https://avocadogreenmattress.com/DRNICOLEAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
