Hydration, Thirst, and Drinking Water

Most of us equate the expression “hydrate extra” with drinking more water but – unfortunately – this is incorrect. In any online dictionary “to hydrate” means to create “…a substance that is formed when water combines with another substance…” In other words, water alone is not a hydrating fluid but it must be combined with […]

Do Statins Induce Atherosclerosis and Heart Failure?

Statins are some of the most popularly prescribed medications on the market with 1 in 4 Americans taking statin drugs (2011). Do they work? To read the read the early reports statins were wonder drugs, capable of reducing heart attack and extending lifespan with few side effects. No need to change one’s diet or lifestyle, simply […]

Promiscuous Hormones and Other Fun Facts

Every time I read about an environmental endocrine disrupting chemical, a medication or even sometimes actual endocrine research, I am amazed, dumbfounded by the lack of up-to-date information about how hormones and receptors work. Indeed, much of the research still operates on what is called the ‘classical’ view of hormone-receptor activity. And while, those functions […]

Lupron, Brain Function, and the Keto Diet

Reproductive senescence, the period of time in a woman’s life marked by the slowing and eventual cessation of reproductive function, frequently coincides with an increased risk of a host of neurodegenerative disorders from memory impairment to dementia and Alzheimer’s disease.

Endometriosis and Cannabis: The New Power Couple?

Canada is electric right now in the era of cannabis legalization, and the cultural shift this historic event ushers in is profound; however, for over 250,000 medical cannabis patients, it’s business as usual (though still a reason to celebrate!). Many of these patients are women with endometriosis who have found healing solace in the myriad […]

An Incredible Story of Illness: Longstanding Energy Deficiency in a Child

Hormones Matter received an email from a mother of a 10-year-old girl. The medical history that she wrote is so complex that it is hardly surprising that it has confounded all of the physicians that have been consulted. I decided that it was so typical of many “mysterious” illnesses in America, that I would write […]

Thiamine and Riboflavin for Chronic Fatigue

From its title, Mitochondrial Myopathy in Follow-up of a Patient With Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, I doubt anyone would ascertain the importance of this case study, but a quick read of even just the abstract tells an entirely different story. A deeper dive into the full article reveals just how remarkable this case really is. A […]

What is Stress?

Do We Really Understand Stress?Sometimes, we use a relatively meaningless phrase when we say that a given person “is all stressed out”. I came to the conclusion that the word “stress”, as used in medicine, needed to have some discussion and explanation, even though I have addressed the subject previously. I turned to the 1946 […]
