Products I Love
I get asked a lot about the products I use and love to help support my health and my hormones. The products listed below are either (a) products I use myself or (b) products I don’t use (because I don’t need them) but have carefully vetted. I distinguish between these below.
Note that I have developed an affiliate relationship with the brands listed below because they are products I use myself or are products I have vetted to help people find the help they are looking for. As an affiliate, I earn a small commission from qualifying purchases. I just want to be totally transparent about that since I am not in the business of trying to pull a fast one on anyone. I get approached by many, many companies and only develop relationships with a select few.
This being said, I have developed affiliate relationships with the products I use and recommend most frequently. This means that I can earn a small commission from qualifying purchases. I just want to be totally transparent about that since I am not in the business of trying to pull a fast one on anyone.
Cycle-based Wellness apps
28
28 is a cycle-based wellness app that you can use to track your cycle and receive recipes, workouts, and insights that are specific to your hormonal state. 28 is Period Brain approved and is already changing women’s lives for the better. Recent research conducted in collaboration with my lab at TCU and researchers at UCLA found that using the exercise recommendations made by 28 (when compared to exercise that is not cycle-based) predicted increased body satisfaction, better mental health, more happiness, and fewer food cravings.

Lab Tests
Function Medicine
This is next-level lab testing that you gives you information on more than 100+ biomarkers that are related to your health. Using Function is what tipped me off to the fact that I have auto-immune biomarkers that need to be monitored. It is inexpensive, easy to get scheduled, and comprehensive. I love what they are doing.

Red Light Therapy
Like most women (especially most women my age), I like to invest in the health of my skin. I mostly do this with the foods I eat (healthy food is the best skincare routine there is), but I also use red light therapy to capitalize on the healing benefits of light.
Kozi Red Light Therapy Mask
This mask is lightweight, works super well, and has different settings for different needs. The anti-acne setting (which sadly, I still sometimes need) stops breakouts in their tracks for me.
Supplements
BioOptimizers Magnesium Breakthrough
Why do I love this magnesium so much? It has has 7 different kinds of magnesium and it has transformed my sleep. Be sure to take it at bedtime because it will make you seriously sleepy (but with no morning grogginess)
Continuous Glucose Monitors
Nutrisense CGM
Functional Mushrooms
I love taking functional mushrooms when I need a late afternoon pick-me-up. They give me energy / perk me up without compromising my sleep at night.
Nütrops gummies
I keep these in my office for when I need to grab something on the go. I love them because they are sugar free and also free of dyes, are non-GMO, etc.

BioOptimizers Mushroom Breakthrough
This is a sweet caramel-tasting coffee alternative that I love as a sweet pick-me-up when I have long teaching days or long days in the lab.
