  • Ep. 159 - Uterine Fibroid Treatment Options with Dr. Suzanne LeBlang
    Feb 25 2025
    Dr. Fiona Lovely is a longevity, health and wellness expert with specialties in menopause medicine, functional neurology and functional medicine. She is speaking to the topics of women's health around perimenopause and menopause. Uterine fibroids are a very common concern for women who are still menstruating. They are the cause of extreme and chronic pain, heavy bleeding and there aren't great treatment options available. Today I welcome Dr Suzanne LeBlang to the show to discuss a novel therapy for treatment of fibroids - focused ultrasound. I had never heard about this treatment until Dr. LeBlang shared her knowledge. This conversation highlights how the non-invasive technique can treat uterine fibroids using thermal ablation, without the need for incisions or injections. This is also available for many other health concerns such as thyroid nodules, Parkinson's disease, breast tumours, tremors and others. It has been FDA approved since 2004. Overall, this episode underscores the importance of non-invasive treatment options for women's health concerns, with focused ultrasound emerging as a promising alternative for various conditions. Dr. LeBlang is the Director of Clinical Relationships at the Focused Ultrasound Foundation (FUS) and was trained as a neuroradiologist. You can find out more about this treatment option at fusfoundation.org or on Instagram here.

  • Ep. 158 - Digestion, Gut Health and Weight Management with Wade Lightheart
    Feb 18 2025
    Dr. Fiona Lovely is a longevity, health and wellness expert with specialties in menopause medicine, functional neurology and functional medicine. She is speaking to the topics of women's health around perimenopause and menopause. Have you felt like your digestion has changed with your perimenopausal march forward? Do you experience bloating, heartburn, reflux, diarrhea, constipation or IBS? Do you wonder if your food is actually being absorbed and used well? What's the point of consuming all this protein we are being asked to eat if we aren't absorbing it! Listen in as Certified Sports Nutritionist, Wade Lightheart educates us on the digestive changes we can experience at midlife. Wade's story is inspiring - he ran his first marathon at 50 years old after spending decades in the bodybuilding competion industry. He realized that in order to get the performance he desired, he required a different level of digestion of his food/fuel. He is an expert on enzymes, gut health and nutrition optimization. He is on a mission to help people gain and keep health, long term! Wade realized from his own nutrition practice that women wouldn't always bounce back in their performance after pregnancy and he went about finding out out why. He shares this discovery and how he helped women manage this in our chat. Did you know that you require good gut health to have good hormonal health? We talk about why in this episode. Enzymes, probiotics, protein optimization and much more. Wade has a clear and contagious zest for life and he is freely sharing his protocols for a great life with us!

Info is not science based

Quite a bit of woo and hunches, and not enough science. A no from me. We need better
