  • Dr Brooke Show #377 How To Get More Accountability In the Gym

    28/12/2023 Duración: 01h03min

    For more info about how I can help you, visit my site BetterByDrBrooke.com. Meet your new personal trainer: CoPilot! Strength training is ALWAYS a part of the treatment plan in my office but if you aren’t working with me directly it can be hard to find the right person to be your coach and trainer and let’s be real, personal training is traditionally quite expensive. Maybe you’ve explored a program online but it feels so cookie cutter or you don’t want to be on a zoom class and honestly, online training has a lot of drawbacks compared to working with someone one on one.    Until now, I didn’t have a lot of great solutions - especially if you are new to lifting - which is why I was so thrilled to find the CoPilot App. First, it’s not just an app because you are actually working with a real, life person and the tech that allows them to interact with you as they would in real life is kinda amazing. And it’s very affordable!   I am so happy to have one of the creators of CoPilot, Matt Spettel on the show to share

  • Dr Brooke Show #376 Cortisol & Anxiety

    21/12/2023 Duración: 58min

    For more info on how I can help you visit my site BetterByDrBrooke.com.   Anxiety is a complicated issue and in various episodes I’ve discussed how the gut plays into mood, stress and anxiety as well as different types of stress responses and stress management skills. In this episode however, I’m going to dive a bit deeper just into how cortisol plays into anxiety and fear - and it’s a lot more complicated than “high cortisol makes you feel stressed and anxious”. Cortisol metabolism, inflammation and the cortisol awakening response (which indicates our ability to recover from stress) all come into play and I cover that all as well as also how we assess these various aspects and which supplements and lifestyle habits will help.    To work with Dr Brooke click here and if you loved this episode please leave a review!     Follow Dr Brooke on Instagram and get signed up for my awesome emails here.

  • Dr Brooke Show #375 All About DHEA & Pregnenolone

    13/12/2023 Duración: 44min

    For more information about how I can help you visit my site BetterByDrBrooke.com. When it comes to taking hormones, attention often goes to estrogen, progesterone and testosterone but there are two other hormones to consider: dhea and pregnenolone. These are usually thought of as “precursor hormones” that can be taken and then turned into estrogen and testosterone - and they can be. However, they both have actions and benefits of their own specifically with regards to comes to memory, mood and energy/stamina so they may have a place in your regimen. They do though convert to other hormones so testing is important and side effects can certainly arise.    To work with Dr Brooke click here and if you loved this episode please leave a review!     Follow Dr Brooke on Instagram and get signed up for my awesome emails here.

    10/12/2023 Duración: 01h02min

    For more info on how I can help you visit BetterByDrBrooke.com.   Unlike most health conditions for women which have multiple layers of screening and various tests to assess risks and progression, breast health is generally a yearly screening mammogram with little to no conversation about other ways we can improve the health of breast tissue and what other markers beyond a mammogram tell us our risk for breast cancer and generally the state of affairs in our breasts.    In this episode I talk about how to get a much broader view of your beast health and risk using tests for hormone balance vs. just levels of hormones, oxidative stress markers and even how your circadian timing and cortisol impact your breast health and breast cancer risk. There is so much you can do for your breast health! I hope this episode leaves you very empowered to get that info and take some lifestyle steps that make a huge difference and understand how targeted supplements can help when you know exactly what you need to shift things m
