In this episode, Vanessa welcomes our guest, Vivien Allred, a naturopathic nutritionist specializing in women's health and hormones. Vivien shares her journey and how she became interested in this field due to her own struggles with hormone imbalances. She explains that while she initially focused on hormone health, she now works with clients who have more complex cases involving chronic fatigue, skin issues, and digestive problems.
Vivien highlights the connection between toxins, particularly mold, and PCOS. She explains that chronic stress, inflammation, and blood sugar imbalances are the main drivers of PCOS. However, she emphasizes that living in toxic mold can contribute to all three of these issues. Mold toxins cause stress, inflammation, and disrupt liver detoxification, which in turn affect blood sugar and metabolic health.
The episode concludes with a discussion on preventive measures to reduce the risk of mold exposure, such as using dehumidifiers, air filters, and ensuring proper airflow. The guest emphasizes that mold can grow anywhere and encourages people to take proactive steps to create a healthier living environment.
