Train Your Hormones

From Living Your Wellness Life by Drs. Mark and Michele Sherwood

About this episode

This episode discusses heat-shock proteins and their connection to hormone balance, along with practical lifestyle changes to improve health.

This episode explains heat-shock proteins and practical ways to trigger them—sauna, brief cold exposure (50–60°F for 1–5 minutes), short intense exercise, intermittent fasting, and phytochemicals like curcumin and broccoli-sprout–derived sulforaphane. Hosts connect HSPs and daily habits to hormone balance, noting how ultra-processed carbs and chronic stress drive insulin, cortisol, thyroid, and leptin dysregulation. Takeaways: clean up nutrition, test—not guess—when symptoms persist, and start the day with a protein-forward breakfast instead of sugar.
