Perimenopause is like puberty’s older, crankier sister…

She shows up uninvited, messes with your hormones, steals your sleep, and cranks the thermostat to lava. 🔥😤💨

But at least this time, you can afford good chocolate and say “no” without explaining.

As a doctor, I’ve known about C15:0 and its role as an essential fatty acid. What’s new (and honestly pretty exciting) is the emerging science around supplementing it in a pure, sustainable form—something we just couldn’t do before.

🌸 Let’s Set the Record Straight on Hormones & Breast Cancer 🌸
Have you heard that hormones “cause breast cancer”? Don’t be scared off by outdated info. That belief came from the famous Women’s Health Initiative (WHI) study published in 2002... but here’s what you might not know:
The WHI study used synthetic hormones — specifically Premarin and Provera — not the bioidentical, plant-based hormones we use in functional and regenerative medicine today.
🔍 Here’s why the WHI study was flawed:
❌ Participants were on average 63 years old and already had pre-existing risk factors for cardiovascular disease and cancer.
❌ The study lumped estrogen and progestin therapy together, making it hard to isolate individual risks.
Later analyses showed that estrogen-alone therapy (in women without a uterus) was associated with a reduced risk of breast cancer and mortality!
🧠 More recent research — including from the North American Menopause Society and The New England Journal of Medicine — confirms: ✅ Bioidentical hormone therapy (BHT) does not carry the same risk profile. ✅ Starting HRT earlier in the menopausal transition offers protective effects for the brain, bones, heart, and mood. ✅ Breast cancer risk is complex and influenced by many factors (genetics, inflammation, insulin, lifestyle) not just hormones.
🌿 At Elevate Health, we use bioidentical, plant-derived hormones customized to your body’s needs — not outdated synthetics.
It’s time to rewrite the narrative. Hormones aren’t the enemy — they’re part of healing.

Repeat 2–3 rounds
Always end on cold to finish strong! 💪

💡 Pro Tips:
Breathe deeply during cold exposure to stay calm 🧘

Feeling run down, inflamed, or in need of a reset?

We recently explored the healing waters of Pagosa Springs, Colorado—home to the deepest geothermal spring on Earth.

Why does this matter?

These mineral rich springs support detoxification, calm the nervous system, strengthen bones and joints, improve skin health, and even elevate mood. This is nature’s version of a full-body recharge.

At Elevate Health, we believe healing begins at the cellular level—whether through ozone therapy, regenerative medicine, or natural mineral therapies. More to follow as we explore the natural wonders of the Rocky Mountains.
