| 175: Why NAC is not a "gut healing" supplement and should never be used long-term | 20 Oct 2026 | 00:10:04 | |
Taking NAC for liver support or general health? There's something important you need to understand about how this supplement may affect your gut. In this episode, I explain why I urge caution with long-term use of NAC (N-acetyl cysteine), particularly when gut health is a concern. NAC is known for its mucus-thinning properties, but the mucus lining in your gut serves an essential purpose: it helps protect your intestinal cells from gut bacteria. Disrupting that protective layer may have unintended consequences, including potentially affecting Akkermansia muciniphila, an important gut bacterium that relies on mucus as a food source. I also discuss why supporting your liver starts with the foundations, including gut health, adequate nutrients, a healthy diet and lifestyle, and understanding your individual needs rather than reaching for another supplement. We explore the role of Akkermansia in gut health and why balance matters when interpreting stool test results. NAC may have a place in certain circumstances, but more supplementation isn't always better, and long-term use deserves careful consideration. If you're taking NAC for gut or liver support, this episode will help you understand the concerns I want you to discuss with a qualified healthcare professional before deciding whether it's right for you.

| 174: Don't Take These Supplements Until You've Tested Your Gut (Plus the Ones I Never Recommend) | 13 Oct 2026 | 00:16:41 | |
Could some of the supplements you're taking to improve your health actually be working against your gut? In this episode, I'm breaking down why certain popular supplements deserve a closer look before you add them to your routine. From TUDCA, ox bile and digestive bitters to broccoli sprout extracts and joint supplements, I explain how some products may influence bile flow and feed opportunistic bacteria like Bilophila wadsworthia, which can produce hydrogen sulfide in the gut. I also share why I avoid using berberine and oil of oregano in my gut protocols, and how these powerful antimicrobials may affect beneficial bacteria alongside the unwanted ones. We explore the potential connections between gut imbalances, bloating, bowel changes, fatigue and inflammation, and why symptoms alone may not tell you the whole story. The key takeaway? More supplements don't necessarily mean better gut health. Before spending money on another product, it's worth understanding what's happening in your microbiome and whether your approach is actually addressing the underlying issue.

| 173: Copper, Zinc, Vitamin D and Selenium: Are Your Supplements Backfiring? | 09 Oct 2026 | 00:19:29 | |
Are your supplements actually helping you, or could they be making things worse? In this episode, Tara explores the potential downsides of blanket supplementation and explains why taking nutrients like vitamin D, zinc, iron and selenium without understanding your individual needs can create unintended problems. Using a client's hair tissue mineral analysis (HTMA) as an example, she discusses the relationships between calcium, magnesium, copper and zinc, and why supplementing one nutrient can affect the balance of others. Tara also challenges common assumptions about vitamin D deficiency, discusses the potential risks of excessive supplementation, and explains why she believes testing and investigating the underlying cause of an imbalance should come before simply trying to correct a number on a lab report. The takeaway? More supplements don't necessarily mean better health. Understanding your individual needs and working with a qualified healthcare professional can help you make more informed decisions about supplementation.

In this episode, Tara answers your health questions straight from Instagram, covering everything from gastritis and SIBO to leaky gut, insulin resistance, thyroid issues, low ferritin and B12, and GLP-1 medications. She dives into why H. pylori should be properly ruled out with gastritis, why SIBO requires breath testing, the limitations of zonulin testing, and why low ferritin doesn't automatically mean iron deficiency. She also shares her thoughts on supporting insulin sensitivity through muscle, protein, fibre, stress management and lifestyle before reaching for supplements. The conversation also gets into thyroid health and Hashimoto's, the realities of aging, iron and B12 testing, and GLP-1 medications.

| 171: Debunking the Continuous Progesterone Myth: Unopposed Estradiol Is the Real Concern with Phyllis Bronson, PhD Jill Chmielewski, RN, BSN, Carol Petersen, RPh, CNP | 10 Sep 2026 | 01:39:18 | |
There is a lot of conflicting information online about progesterone right now, particularly around whether women need to take it continuously, whether cycling is necessary, and whether progesterone can somehow interfere with estrogen or increase dementia risk. In this conversation, Dr. Phyllis Bronson, Carol Petersen, RPh, CNP, and Jill Chmielewski, RN, BSN, discuss some of the biggest claims circulating about progesterone and hormone therapy. The conversation explores the importance of progesterone, how different delivery methods can affect the way it works in the body, and why dose and individual response matter. They also discuss oral, topical and vaginal progesterone, the role of allopregnanolone, estriol and Bi-Est, and why measuring hormones in the blood doesn't always tell the full story of what is happening at the tissue level. They also tackle one of the biggest current controversies: the idea that continuous progesterone may increase dementia risk. The group discusses the evidence and theories behind this claim, the importance of balancing estradiol with progesterone, and why women need to be cautious about making hormone decisions based on simplified social media messaging. This is a wide-ranging conversation designed to give you more context, more questions to ask, and a deeper understanding of the ongoing debate around women's hormones. In this episode:

| 170: PART 2: Dr Lindsey Berkson: The Truth About HRT & Breast Cancer, Bi-Est Vs. Estradiol, Vaginal Vs. Topical Vs. Oral Progesterone, Mammograms, & SO Much More. | 14 Aug 2026 | 00:34:17 | |
In Part 2 of Tara's conversation with Dr. Lindsey Berkson, they continue the discussion by looking at the different forms and delivery methods of HRT, including Bi-Est, estradiol, estriol and progesterone. They discuss why the way a hormone is delivered can matter, why vaginal progesterone may work differently from oral or topical progesterone, and why individual response matters when choosing a delivery method. The conversation then moves into testosterone and breast health, including the role of hormone metabolites and estrogen receptors. Dr. Berkson also shares her thoughts on mammograms and breast cancer screening, including her own experience of finding breast cancer shortly after receiving a negative mammogram. This episode ultimately comes back to one of the biggest themes of the entire conversation: don't blindly follow a protocol simply because it's considered standard. Understand the evidence, understand the limitations, and make informed decisions with appropriate medical support.

Does estrogen really cause breast cancer? It's one of the biggest fears women have when considering HRT, and in this conversation, Dr. Lindsey Berkson takes Tara back to where much of that fear began. They unpack the history of the Women's Health Initiative, how the original messaging around hormones shaped medical practice, and what later analyses of the research have shown. Dr. Berkson explains why she believes estrogen has been misunderstood, including the difference between estrogen's effects on different receptors and why "estrogen-positive" breast cancer does not necessarily mean estrogen caused the cancer. They also discuss research involving women with ER-positive breast cancer who received estrogen and what those studies reported. Dr. Berkson then shares her own breast cancer story and why it ultimately led her to spend decades researching hormones. This is a fascinating conversation about how medical messaging evolves, why women need to understand the details behind the studies, and why Tara believes these are conversations women deserve to have.

| 168: Why every woman on HRT needs to work on their gut - even without gut symptoms. | 29 Jul 2026 | 00:14:38 | |
Think your gut is healthy because you don't have bloating, constipation or indigestion? Think again. In this episode, Tara explains why you can have significant gut dysbiosis without a single digestive symptom—and why that matters if you're taking HRT. Your gut plays a critical role in how your body metabolises and eliminates estrogen. Tara unpacks the connection between the microbiome, liver detoxification, the estrobolome, and beta-glucuronidase, and explains why simply taking supplements like DIM or calcium D-glucarate isn't addressing the root cause. Whether you're on HRT or supporting your hormones naturally, this episode will help you understand why a healthy gut is essential for healthy hormone metabolism—and why optimising your gut may be one of the most important steps you can take, even if your digestion feels perfectly normal.

| 167: No, Everyone Likely Does NOT Have "Leaky Gut". Here's What's Actually True About Leaky Gut. | 22 Jul 2026 | 00:26:54 | |
Leaky gut has become one of the most talked about topics in the wellness world, but how much of what you've heard is actually true? In this episode, Tara separates the science from the social media myths surrounding intestinal permeability (commonly called "leaky gut"). She explains why having some intestinal permeability is completely normal, who is actually at risk of developing excessive permeability, and why telling everyone they have a leaky gut can lead to unnecessary fear, supplements, and expense. You'll also learn what really damages the gut lining, why common tests like zonulin may not be giving you reliable answers, the gold-standard test used in research, and the evidence-based strategies that genuinely help support and repair the gut barrier. If you've ever been told you have leaky gut—or you've wondered whether you do—this episode will help you understand what the research actually says. In this episode:

| 166: Supplements To Take, Avoid, And Approach With Caution (As A Certified Microbiome Analyst) | 15 Jul 2026 | 00:25:13 | |
Walk into any health food store or spend five minutes on social media and you'll be told you "need" a long list of supplements for your gut. Bitters. But are they actually helping your microbiome... or could they be making things worse? In this episode, Tara shares her honest, research-backed opinion on the gut supplements she believes are worth considering, which ones are overhyped, which should only ever be used with the right testing, and the supplements she believes most people should avoid altogether. Drawing on more than a decade of clinical experience and her training as a Certified Microbiome Analyst, Tara explains why the right supplement depends entirely on what's happening inside your gut, and why guessing can sometimes do more harm than good. If you've ever wondered which supplements are actually worth your money, this episode is for you.

After decades of chronic constipation, going as long as six weeks without a bowel movement, and living with severe bloating that left her looking "like she'd swallowed an elephant," Wendy had tried everything… or so she thought. Laxatives. Supplements. Restrictive diets. Wellness practitioners. Expensive protocols. Yet nothing truly worked because nobody had properly investigated what was actually happening in her gut. In this deeply personal conversation, Wendy joins Tara to share how comprehensive microbiome testing finally uncovered the root causes behind her lifelong gut struggles and how, within weeks of targeted support, everything changed. This episode explores the emotional and physical toll chronic constipation can have on women, why symptom suppression isn't the same as healing, and how proper testing can completely transform the way we approach gut health.

In this episode, Tara dives into one of the most important — and often overlooked — players in metabolic and gut health: Akkermansia muciniphila. She explains how this keystone bacteria influences weight regulation, inflammation, blood sugar balance, and gut integrity, and why both low and elevated levels can signal deeper issues in the body. Tara also breaks down the common misconceptions around weight loss, the role of the microbiome in supporting metabolic health, and why diet alone is often not enough to optimize gut function. You'll learn practical strategies to support Akkermansia naturally, when supplementation may or may not be helpful, and why proper testing is essential for understanding your unique gut environment.

| 157: Everything You Need to Know About Constipation in Under 15 Minutes | 16 Apr 2026 | 00:13:27 | |
Constipation isn't just uncomfortable. It's not a minor inconvenience to manage around with a magnesium supplement and a prayer. When your bowels aren't clearing properly, your body is holding onto things it needs to let go of; waste, toxins, and used-up hormones like estrogen that, when reabsorbed, start creating problems far beyond your digestive system. This is why I take it seriously in practice. And why I recorded this episode. Because most of the advice out there is either incomplete or quietly making things worse. In this episode I walk you through what actually matters:

| 153: PART 2: CVD is the #1 killer of women. How the wellness industry misled you about cholesterol & the truth that will save lives. | 18 Feb 2026 | 00:32:03 | |
In Part 1, I shared how my own bloodwork forced me to question everything I thought I knew about cholesterol. In this episode, we go deeper — into the markers that actually predict cardiovascular risk and why so many women are being reassured by tests that don't tell the full story. Because a "normal" cholesterol panel doesn't mean your risk is low. It often just means the most important markers were never measured. I walk you through the two advanced markers that can completely change how we understand heart disease risk — especially when genetics are involved — and why these tests are essential if you want a clear, accurate picture of your cardiovascular health. We also have an honest conversation about cholesterol-lowering medications: what they do, when they make sense, and why modern medicine can be protective when used thoughtfully and strategically. This isn't about fear. It's about clarity. It's about having the full picture so you can make informed decisions about your health and your future. In this episode of The Perimenopause Solution Podcast, you'll learn: • Why a standard cholesterol panel often misses true cardiovascular risk If you've ever been told your cholesterol looks "fine," this episode will help you understand what may still be missing — and why that matters.

| 152: PART 1: CVD is the #1 killer of women. How the wellness industry misled you about cholesterol & the truth that will save lives. | 11 Feb 2026 | 00:28:33 | |
For years, women have been told cholesterol doesn't really matter — or that as long as you're "metabolically healthy," you don't need to worry. In this episode, Tara shares why she no longer believes that… and how her own bloodwork forced her to rethink everything she once taught. Despite being fit, metabolically healthy, and doing "all the right things," Tara discovered she has genetically driven high cholesterol — something lifestyle alone couldn't fix. She explains why common tests like a coronary calcium score can give a false sense of security, and why genetics play a much bigger role in heart disease risk than the wellness industry admits. This episode challenges the oversimplified, feel-good cholesterol messaging online and replaces it with nuance, evidence, and real-life experience.

| 151: RE-RUN: We are not in a low vitamin D epidemic, with Regina Nuzzo PhD & Kristin Cobb PhD | 04 Feb 2026 | 01:04:17 | |
Is everyone really low in vitamin D? Or have we been sold a narrative that doesn't hold up under scrutiny? In this mind-blowing episode, Tara sits down with Regina and Kristin, the investigative duo behind the Normal Curves podcast, to explore the truth behind the so-called "vitamin D deficiency epidemic." Spoiler: it may have been manufactured by outdated, flawed science—and driven by people with major conflicts of interest. This is a must-listen for anyone taking vitamin D or worried about their levels. If you've been told your D is "low," this episode might change everything. In this episode we cover:
If you're thinking about taking D, already taking D, or have been told your vitamin D is "low" (it likely isn't) then this one is for you.

| 150: RE-RUN: The Truth About Vitamin D That No One's Telling You PART 2 | 28 Jan 2026 | 00:41:56 | |
Today is the Part 2 re-run of the vitamin D series, Tara moves beyond basic lab values and takes a closer look at what can happen when vitamin D supplementation goes too far — and why more is not always better. She explains how today's standard reference ranges are built on shaky assumptions, how high-dose vitamin D can create real imbalances in the body, and why symptoms like mood changes, calcium shifts, mitochondrial stress, and even worsening autoimmune issues can sometimes be linked to over-supplementation. Most importantly, Tara shares a smarter, root-cause approach to supporting healthy vitamin D levels without relying on megadoses that may do more harm than good. In Part 2, Tara covers: • Why common vitamin D reference ranges may be misleading If you've ever been told to simply increase your vitamin D without deeper investigation, this episode will help you ask better questions and take a more balanced, informed approach to your health.

| 149: Rerun: The Truth About Vitamin D That No One's Telling You - PART 1 | 21 Jan 2026 | 00:35:37 | |
Today's episode is a rerun of one of the most important conversations I've ever shared on the podcast, all about vitamin D. As the podcast library grows, some truly foundational episodes can get buried, and this is information that's simply too important to lose. This is part one of a two-part series, and if you've never listened (or even if you have), it's well worth revisiting. While most practitioners rush to prescribe high doses of vitamin D based on a single lab marker (25(OH)D), Tara challenges the status quo and breaks down why this approach can be both misleading and harmful, especially for women in perimenopause. She explains the critical difference between 25(OH)D and 1,25(OH)₂D, why elevated active vitamin D (1,25) often goes unnoticed, and how it can actually suppress your vitamin D storage while driving up inflammation, calcium loss, and even contributing to autoimmune conditions and bone loss. This episode is a must-listen if you've ever felt confused about whether to supplement or if you've been taking vitamin D long-term without fully understanding how it works in your body. In this episode we cover:
If you're thinking about taking D, already taking D, or have been told your vitamin D is "low" (it likely isn't) then this one is for you.

| 148: What fixes heavy periods & why Slinda & Progestins are NOT the answer | 14 Jan 2026 | 00:12:55 | |
Heavy periods are one of the most common, and most disruptive symptoms women experience as they move through perimenopause. Flooding, clots, changing tampons constantly, disrupted sleep, rising anxiety… these changes often show up together, and they're not random. In this episode, Tara breaks down what's actually happening hormonally in midlife and why low progesterone is so often at the root of heavy periods. She explains the critical differences between natural bioidentical progesterone and synthetic progestins, and why progestins (like those found in birth control or IUDs) are not the solution many women are led to believe they are.

| 147: The exact and only way to lose weight. This WILL work for you. | 09 Jan 2026 | 00:36:57 | |
Weight loss in midlife has become so confusing, emotional, and frankly? Full of misinformation and trends that do more harm than good. Women are being told calories don't matter, fat can't make you gain weight, or that low sex hormones, low thyroid function, insulin resistance or cortisol issues are the culprit and that fixing hormones will magically melt fat away. NONE of this is true! In this episode, Tara strips away the noise and talk honestly about what actually drives fat loss in perimenopause. This isn't about shame, extremes, or quick fixes. It's about clarity, realism, and understanding how your body works at this stage of life so you can stop spinning your wheels. Here's what is covered: • Why weight loss really is simple (but absolutely not easy) • The role calories play, whether we like it or not • Why hormones don't magically make you gain fat, but do affect how and where you store it • The two biggest mistakes I see women making when trying to lose weight • Why tracking can feel hard; and why that doesn't mean you're failing • How tools like GLP-1 medications and fasting may have a time and place • Why building muscle is non-negotiable for long-term health and staying at a healthy weight Enrollment in The Perimenopause Solution™ is open until January 13th - Join now to get $700 OFF Mentioned in this episode: HRT Made Simple™ - Learn how to confidently speak to your doctor about the benefits of hormone replacement therapy so you can set yourself up for symptom-free, unmedicated years to come without feeling confused, dismissed, or leaving the medical office minus your HRT script.

| 145: My Thyroid Story | 09 Dec 2025 | 00:41:23 | |
In today's episode, I'm opening up about something I've never fully shared before — my own thyroid journey. Even as a practitioner, I'm not immune to the hormonal shifts, viral triggers, and autoimmune quirks that so many midlife women face. My goal with this episode is to pull back the curtain, remove the shame, and give you a deeper understanding of what can really drive thyroid issues in perimenopause and menopause. I walk you through the symptoms I experienced, what my lab work revealed, how my antibodies suddenly spiked, and the surprising reason why (hint: it wasn't gluten or leaky gut). I also share how I'm supporting my thyroid now, including why I chose Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) and how modern medicine + holistic strategies can work beautifully together. Whether you've been diagnosed with Hashimoto's, you suspect thyroid changes, or you've simply "never felt the same" since getting sick — this episode will give you clarity, validation, and a roadmap for next steps. In This Episode, We Cover:1. Practitioners Aren't Superhuman (and Why I'm Sharing My Story) 2. My Personal Symptoms 3. The Rollercoaster of Thyroid Health 4. What Actually Triggered My Antibodies 5.

| 144: How To Overcome Fatigue In Midlife & Beyond | 02 Dec 2025 | 00:21:54 | |
Fatigue in midlife isn't just about needing more sleep — it's often a sign that something deeper is out of balance. In this episode, Tara shares her clinical approach to fatigue, including how hormones, minerals, iron status, thyroid function, inflammation, gut health, and stress all impact your energy. She explains why basic labs don't always tell the full story and what to look for when fatigue doesn't improve with rest or supplements alone. You'll walk away with a clearer understanding of why you feel tired and what steps actually move the needle — plus how personalized testing and guidance can help you get your energy back for good.
Here's what you'll discover in this episode: 1. Why "just getting older" isn't a reason to accept low energy 2. The importance of digging into your blood work 3. How mineral imbalances could be sabotaging your energy 4. The gut-fatigue connection 5. The critical (but often overlooked) role of hormones and stress Other episodes of interest: EPS 130: Do not take oral / IV iron until you've listened to this.

Let's talk about that mysterious, relentless bloating that seems to appear (or worsen) as we step into midlife. If you feel like your jeans fit differently by the end of the day, or you're suddenly experiencing tummy troubles you never had before, you're not alone – and you're not imagining things. Hormonal shifts during perimenopause don't just mess with our moods or energy levels—they can have a huge impact on our gut. Our estrogen, progesterone, and even thyroid hormones all play critical roles in gut function. When those hormones start to fluctuate, the gut can become more sensitive, digestion can slow down, and inflammation levels can rise. Bloating is your body's way of asking for detective work. Maybe it's a case of poor transit time, low stomach acid, SIBO, or certain bacteria (hello methane or hydrogen sulfide producers!) making themselves at home. That's why it's so important to get personalized testing and work with someone who truly understands the microbiome—not one-size-fits-all protocols or quick fixes that can do more harm than good.

| 140: Jill Chmielewski RN, BSN & Tara talk critical metabolic & biological shifts in perimenopause, when to start hormones & more. | 26 Aug 2025 | 00:56:20 | |
Perimenopause brings a lot of changes but there is good news! You see, when you understand what's actually happening in your body, you can take back control. In this week's episode of The Perimenopause Solution, I sit down with Jill Chmielewski, RN, BSN to unpack the critical metabolic and biological shifts that happen during perimenopause, and what you can do right now to support your body, energy, and long-term health. In the episode, we cover:
Jill Chmielewski, RN, BSN, is a Registered Nurse, Health Coach, Menopause Educator, and Women's Health Advocate with over 30 years of experience in healthcare. She is a bold voice in the midlife health movement, calling out the outdated belief that it's all downhill after 40—and replacing it with something far more powerful: the truth that a woman's next chapter can be her strongest, healthiest, and most vibrant yet. Jill holds a Master of Jurisprudence in Health Law and is a certified health coach from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition (IIN). She has completed advanced training through the School of Applied Functional Medicine and the Institute of Bioidentical Medicine, with deep expertise in menopause, hormones, and hormone replacement therapy (HRT). As Education Lead at Respin Health, founded by Halle Berry, Jill combines science-based education with deep compassion and clinical insight, helping women understand their bodies, advocate for their health, and make informed, confident decisions. Her work is rooted in the belief that decline is not inevitable—it's simply what happens when we fail to adapt to our bodies' needs in midlife and as we age. Jill is the co-creator of two personalized Menopause Health & Hormone Optimization programs, the creator of The Beginner's Guide to Hormone Replacement Therapy, and a trusted clinician known for making complex topics clear, approachable, and actionable. Most recently, Jill was featured in the groundbreaking menopause docuseries "Four Days," created by filmmaker Charles Mattocks and a passionate team of experts and women willing to share their stories. The series was born from a quiet question: What if we finally changed the conversation, and turned into a movement? Because the silence around menopause has gone on too long. And because women deserve to be seen, heard, and supported in this next chapter of life. The docuseries is expected to air in late fall 2025.

| 139: Not "everything" is solved with HRT. It's not a magic bullet. | 19 Aug 2025 | 00:20:33 | |
We live in a world where convenience rules and quick fixes are everywhere-whether it's for pain, sleep, or anxiety. But when it comes to HRT, I urge you to slow down. The truth? Many women expect instant results from HRT, but that's rarely the case. The dosage might need tweaking.

| 138: Quick case study: you don't have to have gut symptoms to have gut issues driving your symptoms | 12 Aug 2025 | 00:12:28 | |
Many people assume that gut problems always show up as bloating, pain, or digestive distress — but that's far from the truth. In this episode, Tara explains why everyone who cares about their long-term health and longevity should be paying attention to their gut… even if they think their digestion is just fine. From fatigue and brain fog to anxiety, weight gain, autoimmune issues, and even fertility challenges — the gut often plays a bigger role than you might realize. Tara shares a real-life client case: a woman with zero gut symptoms whose stool test revealed significant bacterial imbalances that were quietly driving inflammation and impacting her health. You'll learn why markers like LPS (lipopolysaccharides) and butyrate are so important, how they connect to inflammation throughout the body, and why a truly comprehensive stool test is non-negotiable if you want real answers. Tara also explains why not all tests — and not all practitioners — are created equal, and how to ensure you're working with someone who understands the full complexity of the microbiome. Whether you're chasing down stubborn symptoms or simply want to stay vibrant and healthy for years to come, this episode will inspire you to make your gut a top priority. Tara explains that:

| 137: A candid chat with Esther Blum about perimenopause, insomnia, changes after pregnancy, HRT & so much more. | 06 Aug 2025 | 00:49:26 | |
This week on the podcast, I'm joined by my friend and fellow practitioner Esther Blum; integrative dietitian, best-selling author, and someone who knows what it actually takes to feel better in perimenopause. We get real about all of it - from postpartum hormone shifts, to the mental weight of motherhood, navigating HRT, and why women are done with being dismissed. Esther shares what helped her reclaim her energy and identity (hint: it wasn't just supplements or sleep hygiene), and we talk through the deep nervous system shifts that so many women don't even realize are affecting their hormones. Here's a peek at what we get into:

| 136: The wonderous health benefits of soy & flax & why all women should consider consuming these foods. | 29 Jul 2025 | 00:34:37 | |
Despite common myths, soy and flax can be powerful allies for women's health - especially during perimenopause and menopause. In this episode, Tara sets the record straight on the hotly debated topics of soy and flax. If you've been hearing mixed messages online - especially about these foods being "estrogenic" or dangerous -it's time to clear the air with research-backed facts! In this episode you'll learn: 🔹 Soy is linked to multiple health benefits: Regular soy intake is shown to reduce the risk of breast cancer, improve cognitive function, and support heart and bone health - especially for peri- and postmenopausal women. The quality of your gut bacteria plays a key role in how well you benefit from soy. 🔹 Flax is a natural estrogen modulator: Far from being "dangerous," flax helps balance estrogen by modulating it, not just increasing or decreasing levels - plus it supports cancer prevention, reduces inflammation, and even helps the body process estrogen down healthier pathways. 🔹 Food > Fear: If anyone tells you to avoid soy or flax without sound evidence, take pause. These are nutrient-dense, research-supported foods, not dangerous "no-nos." Tara recommends 2 tbsp of ground flax daily, and incorporating soy foods like miso, natto, tempeh, or edamame 2–3 times a week.

| 135: DUTCH test, GI MAP at 51 - offered no help. Here's why. | 22 Jul 2025 | 00:20:28 | |
This week on the podcast, Tara shares a story that so many of you will relate to. A woman in her early 50s came to me after spending hundreds of dollars on functional testing - the DUTCH hormone test and the GI MAP stool test - and you know what? They offered her no real answers. She was still exhausted. Still bloated. Still not sleeping. And still stuck with zero direction on what to do next. So what went wrong? In this Episode: 00:54 - Why a 51-year-old client came to Tara after getting no answers from standard functional testing (DUTCH + GI MAP). 02:11 - Why DUTCH testing can fall flat when hormone production has already declined - and why it's not useful for many women in menopause. 04:06 - The limits of the GI MAP when gut dysfunction is mild or metabolic - and why gut symptoms don't always mean gut damage. 05:22 - How this client's low energy, low mood, and low motivation pointed to hormone and thyroid depletion - not just gut dysfunction. 11:32 - Tara's approach: rebuilding from the bottom of the pyramid up - focusing first on nutrition, minerals, hormone/thyroid support. 14:10 - Final thoughts on test interpretation, why you don't always need more data, and how to assess your next steps strategically.

| 134: We are not in a low vitamin D epidemic, with Regina Nuzzo PhD & Kristin Cobb PhD | 15 Jul 2025 | 00:59:30 | |
Is everyone really low in vitamin D? Or have we been sold a narrative that doesn't hold up under scrutiny? In this mind-blowing episode, Tara sits down with Regina and Kristin, the investigative duo behind the Normal Curves podcast, to explore the truth behind the so-called "vitamin D deficiency epidemic."

| 133: The Truth About Vitamin D That No One's Telling You PART 2 | 08 Jul 2025 | 00:39:13 | |
In Part 2 of Tara's vitamin D series, we move beyond lab values and dig into the real-world consequences of high-dose vitamin D supplementation and what to do instead. Tara details how today's standard reference ranges may be misleading, why more is not always better, and how excessive vitamin D can lead to calcium loss, mitochondrial damage, mood symptoms, and even worsen autoimmune conditions. More importantly, she shares a root-cause approach to supporting vitamin D naturally without megadosing and creating imbalance. 💡 In Part 2, Tara explains:

| 132: The Truth About Vitamin D That No One's Telling You PART 1 | 01 Jul 2025 | 00:33:02 | |
Is your vitamin D "deficiency" actually a misdiagnosis? In this eye-opening episode, Tara dives into one of the most misunderstood nutrients in functional medicine: vitamin D. While most practitioners rush to prescribe high doses of vitamin D based on a single lab marker (25(OH)D), Tara challenges the status quo and breaks down why this approach can be both misleading and harmful, especially for women in perimenopause. She explains the critical difference between 25(OH)D and 1,25(OH)₂D, why elevated active vitamin D (1,25) often goes unnoticed, and how it can actually suppress your vitamin D storage while driving up inflammation, calcium loss, and even contributing to autoimmune conditions and bone loss. This episode is a must-listen if you've ever felt confused about whether to supplement or if you've been taking vitamin D long-term without fully understanding how it works in your body. In this episode we cover:
If you're thinking about taking D, already taking D, or have been told your vitamin D is "low" (it likely isn't) then this one is for you.

| 131: Should we be concerned about estrogen metabolites? | 18 Jun 2025 | 00:20:37 | |
In this episode, Tara breaks down what estrogen metabolites are, why they matter, and whether it's necessary to invest in expensive hormone tests. She explains how the body metabolizes estrogen through the liver and gut, and which lifestyle and nutrition strategies support this process - regardless of what your test results may say. Tara also discusses the limitations of supplements like DIM and calcium D-glucarate, urging listeners to focus on diet, gut health, and personalized nutrient support instead of chasing quick fixes.

| 130: Do not take oral / IV iron until you've listened to this. | 15 Jun 2025 | 00:41:05 | |
Feeling wiped out no matter how many iron supplements you take? You're not alone—and you're not crazy. In this episode, Tara breaks down the often-misunderstood world of iron, ferritin, and fatigue, revealing why the typical "take more iron" approach doesn't always work (and can even make you feel worse). She explains the key roles of iron transport, inflammation, and cofactors like copper and ceruloplasmin, and shares how low energy and poor lab results are often symptoms of a deeper imbalance—not a straightforward deficiency. If you've ever been told you're anemic, or your labs show low ferritin, this episode is a must-listen. What We Cover in This Episode:

| 129: Hypothyroidism goes undiagnosed all the time in midlife. This episode: everything you need to know to ensure this doesn't happen to you. | 13 May 2025 | 00:23:21 | |
Your thyroid is not just "another hormone"—it's the maestro that sets the tempo for your whole body, and it especially needs love as progesterone drops in perimenopause. But here's the problem: so many practitioners still miss the real story. If all you've had checked is your TSH and you were told "it's normal," you could still be sidelined by sluggish thyroid symptoms—because so much more is happening under the surface. A full thyroid panel really matters. That means pushing for TSH, free T4, free T3, reverse T3, and thyroid antibodies. But it doesn't stop with testing. You need someone looking at your labs with a functional lens (the 'optimal' prevention-focused ranges, not just "fine for the average population") and someone who understands the nuances—like how stress, inflammation, and gut health all play a role in your thyroid feeling sluggish. Here is what we cover in this episode:

| 128: Even "beneficial" supplements can backfire if they're not right for your unique picture. How a client was unknowingly working against herself. | 06 May 2025 | 00:14:32 | |
People assume that popular supplements can only help — but that's not always true. In this episode, Tara unpacks the risks of DIY-ing your own supplement routine, even with commonly recommended options like magnesium or vitamin D. She explains why personalized advice matters and how what works for one person may not work for another. Tara shares a powerful client story about gut health issues that got worse after the client added supplements she found online. With the help of targeted gut testing, Tara's team uncovered that those supplements were actually feeding the wrong gut bacteria — and making symptoms worse, not better. This episode is an eye-opener for anyone who's ever wondered if their supplement routine is really helping. Tara breaks down why it's essential to keep your practitioner in the loop before adding anything new — and how to avoid the common pitfalls of self-prescribing. Here's what is covered:

| 127: Are you taking a fake, potentially harmful progestin (fake progesterone?). Find out in this episode & what to do instead. | 29 Apr 2025 | 00:10:33 | |
Many women don't realize there's a big difference between synthetic progestins and natural bioidentical progesterone when it comes to hormone support. In this short episode, Tara breaks down the key distinctions between these two types of progesterone, explaining why bioidentical forms are the safest and most effective option for women in midlife. Tara highlights the potential harms of synthetic progestins—which are commonly found in birth control pills, certain IUDs, and some hormone replacement therapies—including increased risks of breast cancer, negative cardiovascular impacts, mood disturbances, and more. In contrast, natural bioidentical progesterone supports sleep, mood, brain health, and overall well-being, without the risks associated with its synthetic counterparts. If you're on hormone therapy or using birth control, Tara encourages you to check what type of progesterone you're taking and consider making a switch if necessary. This episode is full of clear, empowering information to help you make the best choices for your long-term health as you navigate perimenopause and beyond.

| 126: Even functional docs/practitioners are missing so much in your bloods/not running the right ones. Must-listen blood work episode. | 15 Apr 2025 | 00:31:22 | |
In this episode, Tara breaks down why blood work is one of the most powerful tools for navigating your health — especially in perimenopause and midlife. She explains how conventional medicine often relies on lab ranges based on unhealthy population averages, which can leave many women feeling dismissed even when they don't feel well. Instead, Tara advocates for interpreting labs through a functional, optimal range lens, offering a clearer, more personalized picture of what's really happening in your body. She dives into the most important blood markers to monitor annually to protect against risks like dementia, heart disease, osteoporosis, and type 2 diabetes — including fasting insulin, glucose, HBA1C, glycomark, cholesterol ratios, and liver health indicators. Tara also highlights the nuances of thyroid and iron metabolism in midlife, why oversimplified interpretations can lead to missed diagnoses, and how comprehensive reviews can uncover root causes behind symptoms like fatigue, weight gain, and brain fog. This episode is packed with empowering, actionable information to help you advocate for better care, understand your body's signals, and make informed, proactive choices for your health. What You'll Learn in This Episode:
