  • It is estimated that 1 billion people worldwide have a deficiency in Vitamin D! This deficiency can be attributed to both lifestyle and environmental factors. While some Vitamin D is supplied by the foods we eat, most of it is made in the body when our skin is exposed to sunlight.
     
    In fact, Vitamin D is a hormone that is made when UV rays from the sun contact our skin which converts cholesterol into Vitamin D. Vitamin D3 is the active form after being converted in the liver.
     
    Join Dr. Hotze today as he discusses the benefits of keeping your Vitamin D levels optimal to benefit your health!

  • Ladies, are you tired of not sleeping well, experiencing night sweats and fatigue?  If so – listen up! As we age, our hormone levels decline which can cause a host of unpleasant symptoms. Fortunately, there are natural solutions that can help you feel better.
     
    Many physicians prescribe birth control pills to attempt to “balance your hormones,” but birth control pills are counterfeit hormones that don’t solve the underlying cause of your symptoms, plus have many negative side effects. You need bioidentical hormones that are identical to the ones made by your body.

  • Are you familiar with the “love hormone?”  If not, listen closely.  Oxytocin is known as the “love hormone” and is made naturally in the body and supports proper sexual function. Women produce more oxytocin than men, and it is more densely located in the Central Nervous System.  When replenishing depleted levels of Oxytocin – caused by past trauma, chronic illness, chronic inflammation, high levels of stress, etc. – the oxytocin will bind to the oxytocin receptors in your body and cue the body to do what it already knows how to do! 
     
    Join our VP, Elaina Mango as she discusses frequently asked questions about Oxytocin with Pharmacist and Physician Liaison, Bryana Gregory, PharmD, RPh. Bryana gives us a lot of insight into Oxytocin, how it affects our body and how it can help with many symptoms, including mental health symptoms. Oxytocin is also vital for proper function of our metabolism and cardiovascular systems.

  • After her fourth child, Marisa noticed an increase in hormonal symptoms that weren’t allowing her to show up for her family in the way she wanted. After seeing several physicians, she was discouraged and felt that their “band-aid” approach was not treating the underlying symptoms.
     
    Upon reading an article about tubal ligations, Marisa came to the realization that her symptoms began to appear after the tubal ligation surgery she received after her fourth child was born. It all made sense.
     
    She immediately booked a flight from North Carolina to Texas, where she visited the Hotze Health & Wellness Center to find the answers she was desperately seeking.
     
    Find out what Marisa did to resolve her symptoms and get her health and life back! Watch now and subscribe to our podcasts at www.HotzePodcast.com
