They Said Period Blood Could Cure Diseases… We Had Questions 😳

About this episode

The episode explores the surprising and humorous implications of menstrual blood in science and spirituality.

In this episode we dive into something unexpected, slightly chaotic and honestly a little confronting: period blood. What starts as a curious conversation quickly turns into a deep (and hilarious) exploration of science, spirituality, and everything in between. While Billi is fascinated by the idea that menstrual blood could be powerful, even sacred, Lyndsey is questioning everything from the research to the rituals. We talk about emerging studies exploring how menstrual blood stem cells could potentially help treat diseases like Alzheimer’s, and why scientists are suddenly paying attention to something that’s been ignored for so long. Then things take a turn as we unpack the growing trend of “returning period blood to the earth” a ritual some believe reconnects you to nature, your body, and something deeper. Is this the future of medicine? A spiritual awakening? Or have we officially gone too far? A wildly honest, funny, and slightly unhinged conversation about something society still struggles to talk about openly. Topics discussed: Menstrual blood and stem cell research The potential link to Alzheimer’s treatment How menstrual stem cells are collected Ethics and fears around…
