About this Episode

Today, Dr. Robert Whitfield speaks with Dr. Inna Lozinskaya, who’s a specialist in integrative and functional medicine. They dive into the ways our hormones, chronic inflammation, and sleep are all connected. Dr. Lozinskaya explains how things like stress, gut health issues, and daily habits can throw our hormones and sleep out of balance, which is especially common for women and people with breast implants.

Dr. Lozinskaya emphasizes the importance of obtaining the right tests, focusing on nutrition, and making lifestyle adjustments, rather than seeking a quick fix. She also shares some straightforward, practical advice for getting better sleep and feeling your best overall. The big takeaway? There’s no one-size-fits-all solution. Taking a holistic, personalized approach is key when it comes to health and optimizing your hormones.
