Should I worry about the estrogenic effects of Ashwaghanda? What the heck is going on with our beef? Are we all eating cell cultured dairy, eggs, and chicken? In this September edition of Ask Me Anything, Ali Miller RD hits all your burning questions from whether or not you should supplement with iron for low ferritin, seeking root causes of low iron status, and understanding lab values. She covers the role of stress and gut infection on malabsorption and even touches on the connection of heavy metal toxicity with solutions. Next she provides all you need to know for stye treatment and supporting a healthy ocular (eye) microbiome including topical sprays and internal ways to support symbiosis in the body. Learn about the role of ashwagandha on HPA-axis and cortisol as well as the estrogen receptor connection. Ali shares research on ashwagandha aiding in PCOS, PMS, and even breast cancer treatment. Finally, Ali takes on the industrialized food system in lab grown proteins including what they are, where and how they are being sold, and priorities in purchasing your protein!
