Dr. Lily Conrad discussed bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) for healthspan, wellness and optimization

The FDA recently removed the black box warning from BHRT as the evidence shows that for most women, BHRT is actually beneficial for heart health, bone health, brian health and overall vitality and healthspan. BHRT considerations thus go beyond only relieving vasomotor symptoms and improving libido, although those are also very important.

Dr. Conrad is an integrative family doctor, primary care provider, and women’s health and hormone specialist here at Capital Integrative Health. For a Health Strategy Call with Dr. Conrad, please visit cihealth.org and click on the link to Book a Health Strategy Call.

Our functional health expert Araceli discusses how to strengthen the gut-brain connection, helping your gut health through vagus nerve stimulation

3 simple ways to improve digestive health including stomach acid secretion, food absorption, and gut motility via stimulating the “rest and digest” nerve (vagus nerve)

1- Gargling stimulates your vagus nerve in the back of the throat

2- Massaging the vagus nerve as it runs behind the carotid artery

3- Deep belly breathing, imagine your belly is a balloon that is fully expanding and contracting or think to yourself the words “soft belly” - “soft” on the inhale and “belly” on the exhale
