The concept of hormone balancing is gaining popularity in the health and wellness community. Influencers and some doctors are recommending specific supplements, diets, exercises, and prescriptions to help regulate cortisol, boost testosterone, and address estrogen levels. But are these suggestions truly effective? In this episode of Science Vs, we delve into this topic with endocrinologists Dr. Deena Adimoolam and Prof. Anne Cappola, as well as urologist Prof. Mohit Khera.
The episode covers a range of issues related to hormone balancing, from the role of cortisol and the use of supplements, to concerns about a “testosterone crisis” and whether boosting testosterone is a good idea. The conversation also explores the question of whether estrogen should be viewed as the enemy when it comes to hormone health.
