This topic makes people mad every time I talk about it.
Seed oils are one of the most debated topics in nutrition right now.
Some researchers argue they are harmless or even beneficial. Others believe excessive intake may contribute to inflammatory signaling and metabolic dysfunction.
What we do know:
The modern diet contains far more industrial seed oils than ever before in human history.
And metabolic health is deeply connected to hormone health during perimenopause.
Curious what you think.
Do seed oils belong in a healthy diet?

The DUTCH test can be incredibly helpful… when you use it correctly.
But it should not be used as the primary test to dose hormones.
Why?
Because it measures hormone metabolites in urine, not the bioavailable levels.
In clinical practice, I use DUTCH to understand how your body processes hormones, not just how much you have.
Both pieces matter.
Follow for more hormone education and root-cause medicine.
If you want personalized hormone evaluation, you can work with me one on one (comment clinic)

What I do as a physician treating women in perimenopause.
Look for root causes.
Focus on estrogen metabolism.
Optimize blood sugar.
Work on cortisol.
Protect your progesterone.
Easy peasy, not really but there is hope!
