Welcome back to the Stronger Bones Lifestyle Podcast. In Episode 66, host Debi Robinson welcomes Dr. Lorraine Maita, the Hormone Harmonizer and Detoxifier, to dive deep into the often-misunderstood world of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and its connection to bone health and overall wellness.
Dr. Lorraine, a specialist in hormone management licensed in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Florida, joins Debi to shed light on the benefits and risks of HRT for perimenopausal and menopausal women.
