Dr. Brooke Show

Amidst polarizing, conflicting, and often alarming health and hormone information, The Dr Brooke Show is a voice of sanity where a sensible and nuanced take is honored. Black-and-white thinking, complex daily routines, and hormone advice that get you lost in minutia are not welcome here, but you are. With your host Dr Brooke Kalanick, functional medicine doctor and female hormone expert, you’ll sift through the nonsense and get to what matters most for your hormones and your happiness. Deep dive with expert interviews as well as Dr. Brooke’s solo episodes will give you the solutions you need. Dr Brooke is a speaker, author, and unlike most online experts: still a doc in full-time practice working with real women every day. Like you, she is navigating the moving target that is female hormones through the years and trying to live life more like interval training vs. a marathon: work hard but also recover, learning when to have more grit or when to have more grace. Oh, and also trying not to give her kids too much to talk about in therapy someday. Her promise to you is at least one actionable takeaway from each episode to help you BETTER today. New episodes every Tuesday because a fresh take doesn’t have to happen on a Monday. Any day, any moment is a chance to heal a bit, love ourselves more, make a better choice, and just maybe change our lives. If this week’s topic isn’t for you, check past episodes and stay tuned for next week as a lot of ground is covered on this show! Whether you are 20 or 60, you deserve to understand how your hormones work and how you can feel your best.

Covered a whole lot of ground on this episode! I love these Q&A shows because I can get into so many topics. On this one I talk about what to do when you’re getting repeatedly sick (hello 2024!) both to treat a cold/flu and to get sick less often. I also talk about what symptoms in your luteal phase indicate low progesterone and how to address various “types of PCOS” and why I don’t totally love those categories. I also cover what to do when you’re lifting and feeling like you’re gaining weight - what it means and what you can change if that’s not the goal!

Did you know that 95% of women taking a prenatal are still nutrient deficient? The founders of Needed saw this as a big problem and I couldn’t agree more! But Needed quickly became a bigger solution to a bigger problem by providing more options for moms and moms to be. Women need so much support during the time from thinking about getting pregnant all the way to having little ones and so often they are left with options that don’t address their needs (prenatals that have nutrients in the wrong forms or that they can’t take due to nausea) or they are left with low energy, anxiety or even colds/flus while they are pregnant or nursing because there aren’t natural products that are considered safe during these times. Needed solved all of these problems as well as created a community of no-guilt, education and support for new moms and moms to be.

I am thrilled to have KION founder Angelo Keely back on the Dr. Brooke Show to discuss some powerful new research on amino acids. It’s kinda funny that protein is something I talk about allllll the time on the show and amino acids are not new supplements by any means BUT new research helps us understand just how powerful this simple supplement can be. And we discuss some unique ways to use them in order to harness their power even more. 

 

In this episode we talk about a new ISSN statement that shows a 6X benefit of amino acids alone vs. a protein powder. Which is not only fascinating but also amazing in that so many of you struggle to find a protein powder that works for you! Angelo and I cover the findings of this paper as well as some powerful ways to use amino acids throughout your day - including with meals which is brand new info so you’ll want to check this episode out!
