We’re thrilled to have Alisa
Vitti joining us on the show today! Alisa is a women’s hormone and
functional nutrition expert, and a pioneer in female biohacking and
femtech. Her company is called FLO Living, and it is helping to
change the narrative for women’s hormonal and menstrual healthcare.
Through FLO Living’s digital programs, telehealth coaching, and
supplements, women everywhere can naturally treat their hormonal
issues like PCOS, PMS, Infertility, and
Perimenopause.
Many women struggle with their
health and managing all that they have to do in their busy lives.
Alisa is a wealth of knowledge, and she believes that it is long
overdue for an end to women’s unnecessary hormonal suffering. Diet,
fitness, and medical research has historically been done on men and
postmenopausal women, but there is a lack of research being done on
women’s health. As a result, women are eating, working out, and
living in a way that does not work for their female biochemistry.
In this episode, Alisa discusses the infradian rhythm and explains
what women need to know to optimize their health during their
reproductive years. Be sure to stay tuned today to find out what
Alisa has to share about optimizing women’s hormonal
health.
