Healthy Skin and Holistic Skin Aging from the Inside Out!

How to age beautifully using the holistic science of beauty? How do you use the inside out, to care for your outer appearance? The Hormone Prescription Podcast is back with another episode! On this week's show, Rachel Varga will be discussing how hormone balance factors into healthy, glowing skin. Whether it's reducing wrinkles or restoring the skin's youthful glow, hormone balancing is a great way to prevent and correct various skin problems. 

 

Rachel Varga is a Board Certified Aesthetic Nurse Specialist with over 20,000 procedures performed and the author of unlocking your vitality. She's an international clinical trainer for other physicians and nurses, a celebrity skin expert. She's been featured on Bulletproof Radio as the health expert podcast with JJ virgin live with Dr. KellyAnn, Petrucci and Naveen Jain, and more. 

 

Rachel is also a speaker and a four-time academically published award-winning author in the field of plastic anesthetic nursing, as well as an executive board member and peer reviewer for the plastic surgical nursing journal. Through education on skincare skin and laser rejuvenation, nonsurgical solutions, healing lifestyle, and biohacking practices. Rachel helps inspire others with her unique toolkit to navigate and strategize aging and possibly well using the holistic science of beauty.

 

In this episode you'll learn: 

• The holistic science of beauty and how to know if you have a healthy skin
• The skin problems of women during midlife and beyond
• How inflammation affects our skin and what we can do about it
• Practical tips to help you achieve radiant and glowing skin
• The types of supplements for a better skin health
• The safe options that you can take for skin problems like wrinkles, sagging, etc.
• And more!

 

[03:21] one of the characteristic things that we tend to notice with our skin as we age usually starts to happen at about age 37 to 41. This is when we start to see changes in our hormones, we lose a little bit of estrogen in some cases, which can lead to then loss of collagen and elastin.

 

[08:13]  So at the end of the day, we want to make sure we're taking very potent antioxidants in our diet so that we have that internal protection.

 

[12:57] And I'll talk about some science about why going into the forest is good for you. There's all these compounds that are released from trees and plants that like terpenes, for example, they can be very helpful and supportive at combating inflammation. Also, the way that I like to get into the woods, is I like to get into areas where there's no cell phone reception, or Wi Fi or anything like that.

 

[18:06] And I love how you talk about nature therapy and describe that kind of draining off those positive ions. I love to go to the beach at least once if not twice a week and just put my feet in the sand and in the ocean

 

[19:04] Because at the end of the day, when we're working with mature skin, we you can't use the same skincare routine that is going to work for a teenager, you need more advanced and stabilized peptides, antioxidants, like vitamin C, vitamin E, vitamin A retinol. 

 

[23:53] And I know that some people are saying but Rachel, like me, some people would be like a friend of mine who wants to know whose face is sliding. Her skin is sliding down her face. What is our safe option for wrinkling, sagging, volume loss, all of these things that women at midlife and beyond are dealing with to fix them more acutely.

 

[25:14] And then for the body, we need to make sure that we're doing strength conditioning, cardiovascular conditioning, and flexibility and stability. So lifting the weights, doing the cardio, doing the yoga, Qigong are great balancing practices as well.

Ultimate Toxic Mold Recovery Guide: Take Back Your Home, Health and Life

Did you know that there is a link between mold toxicity and those pesky symptoms of fatigue, nervousness, mood swings and brain fog?

My guest for this episode, Bridget Danner knows this first hand as she has suffered from all of these symptoms before. She also spent years feeling lost and confused about how to heal.

Bridgit Danner has been a licensed acupuncturist since 2004 and a certified Functional Diagnostic Nutrition practitioner since 2015. After losing everything to toxic mold, Bridgit now educates about toxins and how to detoxify through a functional approach. 

 

Mold toxicity is one of the most common toxic exposures that people are exposed to. We all know that healing takes time, but in this episode, we talk about how you can speed up that process by taking some super simple steps, so you start feeling better now - not months from now.

 

You'll learn:

• What is mold toxicity
• The symptoms of mold toxicity
• What you can do to detoxify your body after being exposed to mold
• How toxic molds travel throughout our homes and how they are making us sick
• How molds impact our hormones
• And much more!

 

[01:14] Hormones are imbalanced because they're reacting to other things in your environment like mold. So sometimes you have to address the thing that your hormones are reacting to in order to get your hormones in line.

 

[02:08] Over 50% of the homes in America are estimated to have mold contamination.

[05:11] I got my own environmental illness of toxic mold, pretty severely and had to deal with that in my life, in my personal life and my personal health.

 

[05:59] So I started just talking more about detox techniques and how to detox and then over time really moved into the mold specialty cuz I, I do think there's still a big gap there.

 

[07:20] And it took probably about eight years until I found out I had mold and that time I just had various symptoms coming and going, you know, with, I had anxiety, insomnia, chronic pain, breakthrough bleeding, gut issues, a lot of immune issues like getting sick too often, um, having a lot of like chills and they would kind of come up and down, right? 

 

[09:12] So, you know, looking back, I can see that there were some things we, we could have known about if we were more aware of mold, we just weren't, but it can happen in newer homes too, when they're built too tightly.

 

[10:09] So, you know, looking back, I can see that there were some things we, we could have known about if we were more aware of mold, we just weren't, but it can happen in newer homes too, when they're built too tightly.

 

[11:10] Mold is probably one of the hardest things to diagnose. There you're usually many years delay and people actually receive a diagnosis and it's hard to treat. 

 

[12:19] One is that issues that aren't resolved are worsening. You know, we're not meant to get sicker and sicker every year or, you know, just have these stubborn, right? It's not like just some of us are meant to have IBS. There's a reason.

 

[13:43] You can tell me if this is true or not that over 50% of the home and commercial buildings in the United States are affected by mold. Is that correct?

 

[15:10] if you're doing all the right things and it's not working check for toxins, I love that you say this because I think that's the hallmark message from this episode is if you're doing what I call all the things and your health is not where it's supposed to be, then you gotta check for toxins and mold would probably be top on the list.

 

[16:49] So you're inhaling right into your nose, like these VOCs and these mycotoxins and these bacterial fragments that are coming off the water damage right up into your brain. Basically that information goes right to your brain. And those little microtoxins can travel like anybody's business. 

[17:54] So you can have suppressed hormone production, which I was experiencing for years and just being told it was stress. So that's like a big one right there. And if you're trying to get pregnant or you're trying to make it through menopause or whatever, that's gonna be a problem.

 

[19:05] Most people aren't aware that the quickest way to get into your brain is through your nose. 

 

[19:31]  One of the reasons why is for humans, because they are very good at not killing us and living off of us. Whereas some viruses just go too far and bacteria, they're too acute, too virulent. 

 

[20:48] There's so much actually tons of studies because in animal husbandry, in, in livestock production mold has been a big issue for a long time because the feed is moldy and then it affects the health and the animals and reproduction. 

 

[22:14] And then once you find out that mold is a part of the problem, detangling that mess can be insurmountable. So how should someone start approaching that?

 

[22:53]  So sauna and coffee and amount were probably my two biggest favorites when I was at my sickest and there's things I still do today to detox.

 

[23:18] So a lot of basic things that just support healing and movement of toxins, as long as we'll talk about this next, as long as you can eliminate and handle those toxins, supporting the liver, making sure you're pooping, then the nose toxins can exit. 

 

[25:35] If you don't move it, right. You're just feeling sluggish. You're feeling heavy, right. You're not thinking well and nobody wants to live like that. 

 

[28:14] One of the things that I find most women have to come to terms with is that your symptoms and your illness are calling for a greater expression of you and your life that's different from the life you're living. And it sounds like you really accepted that. 

 

[28:44] Sometimes we're not seeing what isn't working for us until we have a health crisis or some other crisis. And that crisis creates an opportunity to change a hundred percent. 

 

[30:46] Diet can play a factor, but a big part of my journey, especially being divorced in the last couple of years, is really like, how do I wanna show up for myself? What thoughts do I wanna choose? Like what beliefs give me my best life.

The Scary Truth About Your Hormones Your OBGYN Doesn’t Want You To Know

Women go to gynecologists because who else are you going to go to? That's the closest thing for women's health, but there are some things women should know about their hormones that they're not getting at their OBGYNs, particularly the fears and facts behind hormone replacement therapy.

The only way you're going to learn about this stuff is by listening to this episode: The Scary Truth About your Hormones Your OBGYN Doesn’t Want You To Know.

The real scary truth about your hormones is that they affect everything about your health - especially if you don't know about them! We'll help you stay informed.

We're going to demystify and know the truth about this very important topic.

Here’s what you'll learn from this episode:

• The consequences of that hormonal deprivation that are gonna cause us to decrease our lifespan and our vitality
• Fears about hormone replacement therapy
• The facts that women should know about their hormones that they're not getting at from their OB GYNs
•  How do you get access to functional medicine doctors

[02:47]The podcast is my gift to you. I'd like you to give it forward to other women in your life and women you don't even know and probably will never know together we succeed, or together we fail.

 

[07:25] . But what I don't think women realize is that O B GYN is a surgical residency. And that was part of why I loved it as well. 

 

[13:01] So 50 million women in menopause right now, 2 million of us go into menopause each year. We are in a state of hormonal deprivation in menopause. 

 

[14:42] And so I really want women to take away from this today, like, listen to your body. It's trying to tell you something. When gynecologists keep offering bandaid solutions, they're covering up that message and you're not hearing it. 

 

[15:45] one of my favorite things that hormones do is they regulate your immune system. So it's really cool when women get pregnant, their estradiol level goes down because you're carrying a half of a foreign human in you that you're growing, and you don't want your immune system to attack it because you'll miscarry.

 

[16:46] So there's such fear about hormones, the ACOG American college of obstetricians and gynecologists recommendation for hormone replacement therapy is for symptom management for the shortest period of time in the least amount of dose. And they only recognize two symptoms of menopause.

 

[17:42] And so, like, it was standard for women to be on hormone replacement therapy for heart protection and brain protection.

 

[18:41] And so it's very complicated. It's very political, but I want women to understand what that study really said was that if you start hormones more than seven to 10 years after menopause, you probably have an increased risk of blood clot and stroke, because you already have started to develop heart disease and liver disease, et cetera.

 

[20:00] If you do a bioidentical estradiol, your body is not processing it the same way. And if you take a patch, it's bypassing the liver. 

 

[21:05] So if you use micronized bioidentical, progesterone, you know, or made from Mims topical over the counter, that doesn't react in your body the same way that is not feeding breast tissue in the same way. 

 

[21:43] And that, you know, I remember that conversation we had where we just said, you know, OB GYNs are hurting women. And it's sad to admit, I have a lot of good friends who are OB GYN. Yeah. 

 

[23:43] That is good news. It's kind of amazing though, that, you know, the body is made the way it's made because it actually functions really well. so you think that the first inclination would be, well, we naturally have progesterone to balance out and like, I like how you say, keep your, our estrogen in check.

 

[24:13] So if you've had a hysterectomy and you're on estrogen, oh my goodness. Get on progesterone because progesterone is like our natural anti-anxiety harm. 

 

[25:36] But how do women get access to doctors like us? I mean, I know they go to the hormone club where you're helping us also as one of our F and they can get prescriptions, but how do they navigate this for themselves? How do they really learn the truth? 

 

[26:38] Like you just need to find the information, you need to do your own research. You need to talk to each other and share each other's stories. Because that is actually where I started to learn as a physician, I listened to my patients. 

 

[27:30] If you're comfortable, because that is the only way the system is gonna change is if you spark their curiosity and for them to go and do the research and find the world of health and wellness, as opposed to conventional gynecology, which was very much focused on disease. 

 

[28:28] And that's really exemplified in what you're saying is ask questions, share information, and then you'll know if you have an open-minded physician or not. If they really listen to you and they go investigate further and come back to you, that's someone you can work with. 

[29:20] It almost always starts in the gut. We have to heal your gut and get your gut functioning and everything related to your gut, your liver, your gallbladder, all of that needs to be functioning well to metabolize your hormones, to absorb the ingredients, to make your hormones, to excrete your hormones.

 

[31:36] So it goes through the five systems of your body that really affect your hormone balance. And the gut is the first one. And so I am just giving you some really easy, actionable tips that you can start doing today, like to make a shift and see a change in your hormones.

Your Pressing Hormone Q and A

When you hit that dreaded midlife, hormonal transition or menopause, moodiness constantly runs rampant in your body. You constantly feel like you're losing control. Then one day out of the blue, I got this email from a listener who was feeling quite hopeless when she suddenly realized it wasn't just her in this situation.

We live in a world where we can easily get in touch with people to share our vulnerabilities in hopes they will understand and help give us resources to fall back on.

Well here at The Hormone Prescription Podcast, we don't aim to only educate but also inspire you to take action by sharing personal stories that I think could resonate with you too! So today, I wanted to answer your hormone pressing questions, especially if you're not sure what's appropriate for you!

You’ll learn:

• How to formulate empowering and transformative questions, so you will get the best answers.
• How to treat and uncover the root causes of hormonal imbalances symptoms
• How often should you be checking your hormone levels
• HRT & progesterone pills side effects
• And more!

[02:41] You've got health symptoms and you want answers and that's why we added the Q and a, but I want to make sure that you are formulating your questions in a way that's going to give you the best answers.

[04:37] A possibility is what can transform your health into something else. So if you don't ask that transformative question, you don't get informed. You don't get transformed. So to ask the right question is harder than to answer it.

[05:39] But a great question is what's causing the symptom and what test do I need to uncover the root cause of this problem?

[07:35] How often should you be checking your hormone levels? 

[09:12]  I do not believe we were created to use chemicals to solve any of our life changing situations. God planned ahead for our wellness at creation. 

[10:02] I began the progesterone pills this past Friday evening. I wake up with a horrible headache, anyone else?

[10:58] I think that a lot of times when we're doing certain holistic remedies, whether it's bioidentical hormones or supplements, we get ideas in our heads about causation. And there's such a thing as correlation versus causation.

[11:52] And so symptoms are its way of speaking to us and telling us when I have a headache, something's wrong in my head, I have inflammation. 

[12:38]  And when you're changing so many things at once, it's sometimes hard to discern and Unie the threads and knots of your health as to what's causing a problem. 

[14:28] And around the same time she started taking the progesterone and she decided that it was the progesterone that was stopping her from sleeping. Well, well, this is why you gotta ask empowered questions because more likely it was that she, her, her melatonin was high because she was taking melatonin and it's not harmful to have a high melatonin on your Dutch test. 

[17:17] And if you are getting headaches and you're taking progesterone capsules, I would look into what other additives are in that progesterone capsule, like peanut oil. 

[18:16]  That's my goal for you this year is that you go more deeply into learning how to be your own, how health detective, your own sleuth, and really learn how to listen powerfully to what your body is telling you.

[19:11] And again, if you're someone who'd like to volunteer to do an on-air consultation for free to demonstrate to others what it is like and what insight can be garnered by looking from a root cause resolution approach. Please leave me that message here as well. 

 

I hope you’ve found some answers to your hormone questions, or at least that these stories have given you new perspectives on how it feels to be a woman in the midst of hormonal changes. If there are topics we haven’t touched on yet, don't hesitate to ask! We want this podcast to feel like an open forum where everyone can come and chat about what's important for them. Subscribe and leave us a review below, so we can serve you better!

The Science of Gratitude for Amazing Health in 2022

Imagine if there was a simple, easy way to overcome fatigue, improve sleep, increase energy levels and productivity at work, jumpstart weight loss, improve the look of your skin without expensive medical procedures or treatments...

 

 It sounds too good to be true right?

 

A way that not only reduces stress but actually combats the root causes of the leading causes of disease, including cardiovascular disease, cancer, metabolic syndrome and diabetes.

 

Well, scientists have discovered this natural "drug" called gratitude, which is an amazing addition to any healthy lifestyle for achieving optimal health.

• Benefits of gratitude
• How to practice gratitude
• Concrete studies showing how gratitude significantly affects our health in a good way
• Affirmations that will help you create the foundation for health abundance

 

[3:07] Because when he talks about acknowledging, the good that you already have in your life is the foundation for all abundance. 

[5:18] Have a quiz that you can take where you can see how grateful you actually are in a second. 

[6:20] So right here, you've got a concrete study showing that they've done it with people receiving chemotherapy and found for cancer, that they've had better outcomes with the chemo regimens. 

[7:23] I know we're all afraid of breast cancer, but I'm telling you, you need to pay attention to heart disease. Well, our gratitude practices improve that. 

[8:25] I want you to up your gratitude quotient and acknowledge the good that you already have in your life and create that foundation for abundance. 

[9:23] I'm asking you to just take some time to focus on how beautiful and complex and intricate and loyal and supportive your body is and how you experience many, many miracles every single day in this body that you've been given to go through life with. 

[10:25]  We are foundationally hormones and, and this energy body has to be fed and nourished and gratitude is the one of the ways you can feed and nourish. 

[11:27] So you've got to address this and there are energetic disruptions in this framework that underlie every medical condition and symptom and can't sleep.

Unthyroid Thyroid Prescription - Why You Will Never Fix Your Thyroid By Trying To Fix Your Thyroid

There are many reasons why you may feel like you’re in a thyroid battle and your doctor just can’t figure it out. From symptoms to blood tests, it can feel like the whole medical world is in the dark about what’s going on with your thyroid. It’s so frustrating! But the good news is that it doesn’t have to be that way.

 

In this episode, I’m going to share with you how we can get a really clear picture of how our body is functioning and what we need to do to fix it, even if you’ve already had one or more thyroid tests, and it came back normal. 

 

You'll learn:

• Thyroid is the main metabolic driver
• Thyroid problems are the result of survival adaptations
• Your interface with external environment is all about survival (eating, sleep) and the stress response to keep you alive (fight, flight, freeze, fawn)
• Importance of hormone balance
• Visualization is a great key to success

 

[3:00] Health hormones are the foundation of women's health. 

[3:51] We've also got the feature where we're going to be doing some example consultations on the phone of what I do with my one on one clients. 

[9:16]  So hair, skin, nail problems, fatigue, you are tired and anxiety and mood disorders and lack of focus are the five categories of symptoms with low thyroid.

[11:58] You will never fix your thyroid by trying to fix your thyroid. 

[12:56]  So what happens when your thyroid is low, your metabolic driver is low. Your metabolism is low. You don't convert fat and sugar into energy. 

[14:00] Your body has certain inputs and outputs, that program, how it functions.

[14:59] So everything that your body interfaces with externally could be a potential threat to your physical survival. And your body has developed all its systems and processes to protect you, to keep you thriving and protect you.

[17:55] There is nothing that has more significance or impact on your hormonal balance than what you eat and join me for the Hormone Balance Bliss Challenge, starting January 24th, because I'm going to teach you all about how the external environ interacts and your food is your external environment, how it interacts with your hormones. 

[18:59] Cortisol is a part of that and is one of your main hormones, one of your main metabolic drivers, and that also is triggered by your interaction with the external environment. 

[20:00]  So you cannot directly impact your thyroid without impacting the others, so you've got to balance this whole hormonal symptom.

[21:16] Why can't I fix my thyroid? Because you’ve got to fix these other hormones. 

[25:02] Say yes to 2022 is the year that I got unstuck with my thyroid by not addressing my thyroid. 

[26:16] So the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. 

[30:43] I know that incredible vitality occurs for women over 40. When we learn to speak hormones and balance these vital regulators to create the health that we deserve. 

 

You’ll learn how to get a complete picture of your thyroid function so that you’ll know what to do next, and so that you’ll know what your doctor should be doing.

 

Let’s go deeper! Tune in now and share this episode with the women you know who might benefit from this important topic. Don’t forget to subscribe and leave a review!

Only When THIS Happens Will You Balance Your Hormones: The Surefire Way To Accomplish Your Health Goals In 2022

Do you ever feel like the health goals you set for yourself are constantly out of reach? Have you tried diet after diet, exercise program after exercise program, to get your hormones in balance only to end up with frustrating results that never seem to last?

 

If this is you, then listen closely! Today's episode will challenge everything you think about how our bodies work. We will make the case for why, even though it seems counterintuitive, vision and goals can help your body achieve what it needs to do naturally. Because vision helps align the pieces of your life, vision helps create a holistic approach that goes beyond just quick-fix band-aids. Vision brings change from places unseen, so that what was not possible before becomes effortless.

 

Vision brings alignment, vision creates change from within. And it turns out that's the only way real lasting health changes can happen. It's well known that our hormone levels are integral to everything in our lives including but certainly not limited to mood, weight loss goals, libido levels, energy levels and so on. But if you have spent any time at all researching how hormones work inside the body, you know there are dozens of different hormones involved in every process imaginable - making vision an essential part of your holistic approach to finally balancing your hormones for good.

 

Hormone balance sounds overwhelming, but there's a simple solution that can help you reach all your health goals faster.

The End of Alzheimer’s Disease

Is there an end in sight for Alzheimer’s? 

 

We are finally starting to get the message that prevention is the key to ending the nightmare of dealing with Alzheimer’s.

 

What can you do to lower your risk for Alzheimer’s and to maximize your brain health as you age? 

 

Our guest for this episode, Dr. Aaron Hartman, is a physician, clinical researcher and professor who specializes in helping people identify and correct the functional causes of disease including helping them prevent and reverse Alzheimer’s Disease using Dr. Dale Bredeson’s RECODE protocol.

 

Like most of us who have transitioned from practicing dysfunctional medicine, centered around suppressing symptoms with drugs and surgery, to functional medicine, healing that addresses the cause of disease and dysfunction, Dr. Hartmann has had an incredible personal journey that lead him to the uncomfortable realization that the tool box he was given with his MD training was insufficient to address his daughters health concerns and most of the chronic conditions that trouble humans throughout life.

 

The good news is that you are never too old to make changes that help your brain stay healthy and to ward off dementia. This episode of The Hormone Prescription Podcast is all about living a healthy lifestyle at midlife and beyond. It includes: how to eat for brain health, how to sleep for memory and how to manage stress to keep your mind sharp.
