Her mission is born from a blend of her scientific research and personal trials, illuminating why managing our exposure to these hidden adversaries is more critical than ever.

She shares practical steps on how to evade these stealthy culprits, urging us to rethink our daily choices, from the containers that hold our food to the cosmetics that grace our skin. As we navigate the aisles of our supermarkets and drugstores, Jenna equips us with the knowledge to make informed decisions that do more than just benefit us today; they safeguard our hormonal health and the legacy we pass on to our children.
Rounding off our conversation, we tread into the realm of detoxification and the profound influence of lifestyle choices. Dr. Hua breaks down how essential practices, such as quality sleep and proper nutrition, are not just good habits but acts of rebellion against the toxins vying to undermine our well-being. As we delve into the science of purging these unwelcome guests from our bodies, we're reminded of their insidious ability to affect not only our own health but the delicate development of the next generation. This session is a clarion call, urging everyone to take control of their health narrative while igniting a dialogue about the societal shifts needed to protect and preserve our fertility and future.Take the fertility quiz: https://www.healthyouniversity.co/fertility-quiz

This episode brings you a compelling conversation with Dr. Stephanie Rimka, a women's health expert, who stresses the importance of self-care, especially for those dealing with fertility challenges. We dive deep into her courses, tackling the immense stress women face as primary caregivers and why putting your well-being first is essential for being the best version of yourself.
Imagine a world where diet and fertility are linked, where the carnivore diet could potentially boost your chances of conception. Sounds controversial? We thought so too, until we explored the benefits of this diet, the concept of deuterium declination, and the dietary model of Chinese medicine for reproductive-aged women. We also uncover the dietary secrets of Siberian tribes, notable for their long lifespans and high fertility rates.
As we near the end of our enlightening discussion with Dr. Rimka, we touch on pleasure, self-image, and the impact of social media on one's self-perception. Listen as Dr. Rimka shares her personal journey of overcoming trauma and finding her passion in helping others through peptides, fat loss, and weight loss. We believe in savoring moments of pleasure and we hope that you too can start being present in these experiences. The journey to wellness is unique for everyone, but with personalized solutions and a supportive community, every step you take brings you closer to your health goals.
