Vitamin D isn’t a vitamin, it’s part of the steroid hormone axis alongside cortisol, estrogen, testosterone, and DHEA. This distinction is important because when you supplement with a steroid hormone, you don’t simply raise a level, you introduce a signal into a tightly controlled feedback system that’s designed to regulate itself.
Is “estrogen dominance” really just “estrogen dominance?” Because when this enzyme is elevated, it can significantly interfere with hormone clearance and lead to an excess of circulating estrogen that could contribute to symptoms of estrogen dominance and an increased risk of certain cancers.
While hormone replacement therapy can be supportive for some, it’s also a complex, tissue-specific game of trade-offs. This post is not about telling anyone what to take or not take, but about informed consent, biological nuance, and why I’ve chosen a different path.
We spend one third of our lives in bed and most commercial mattresses contain toxic flame retardants. This is a problem. A big problem. And it has implications for your thyroid health.
There’s a commonly-found endocrine disruptor that’s one of the biggest thyroid offenders—bromine. And when I say “commonly-found,” I do mean common.
Does quercetin slow thyroid function? Or does it support the thyroid? What about the hair growth claims? And does it work better than Zyrtec?
Glutathione is a powerful immune-boosting, cancer-fighting, autoimmunity-taming antioxidant that many experts are just coming around to fully understanding.

Candida albicans (intestinal yeast) is a fungal organism that’s a normal and expected presence in our digestive environment. But problems arise—sometimes serious problems—when there’s an overpopulation of pathogenic yeast and it becomes opportunistic.
The FDA just approved the sixth iteration of JAK (Janus kinase) inhibitors for alopecia. But just because it’s newly approved doesn’t mean it’s great because none of the JAK inhibitors are great. In fact, the FDA has also issued a black box warning.
