We talk about the similarities in how endotoxins and estrogen both proliferate the cell by causing a increase of calcium accumulation and excess of bulk water leading to cancer growth and how muscle contraction is a positive sign for a slow metabolism and hypothyroid symptoms.IN THIS EPISODE YOU'LL LEARN...- Estrogen misconceptions and why we have them in place in our current medical system.- Why sugar does not cause Insulin resistance.- How estrogen and endotoxin cause the breakdown of cellular function which leads to low digestion, thyroid and metabolism.- Why the medical community continues to advocate estrogen and advertise it as the female hormone despite the serious health implications it has on women.- Dieting and how certain diets are not as effective as you may think.Access show notes and connect with Kyle at: https://www.pureenergypdx.com/integrate-yourself-podcast/estrogen-misconceptions-kyle-mamounisSupport the showFollow me on Instagram:@allisonpelot_Subscribe to my YouTube Channel:https://www.youtube.com/c/AllisonPelot
