In our recent Health Bites episodes, we’ve delved into the research on how our dietary choices and lifestyle impact our hormones and sexual health. From disruption caused by our sugar-heavy diets to the stressors of modern life and invisible threats of environmental toxins, our hormones often bear the brunt of our daily decisions. The good news is that there are many things we can do to bring our hormones and sexual health back in balance.
