Why Treating Symptoms Isn’t Enough
from Health and Hormones · host Rita Johnson
Ever been told your labs look “fine” but you still don’t feel right? In this episode, Rita Johnson, NTP and owner of Health and Hormones, breaks down why your symptoms are actually a roadmap — not a problem to silence. Using her fire alarm analogy, Rita explains why eliminating symptoms without addressing root causes can lead to bigger health issues down the road. In this episode you’ll learn: Why getting rid of symptoms isn’t the same as solving the problem How digestive issues like alternating constipation and diarrhea point to deeper imbalances The role digestive secretions (stomach acid, enzymes, bile) play in everything from energy to hormone balance Why eating “clean” and exercising consistently still might not be enough How addressing root causes now can set women up for a smoother perimenopausal transition When it’s time to stop waiting and get support For more about Rita and her practice go here: https://healthandhormones.org/about/ To schedule a free discovery call today go to: https://app.acuityscheduling.com/schedule/709c8384/appointment/27841554/calendar/3368299?appointmentTypeIds%5B%5D=27841554The post Why Treating Symptoms Isn’t Enough first appeared on Health and Hormones.
