Root-cause health for women, with the sources shown
Author of the Dr. Archers Root-Cause Guides · Doctor of Natural Medicine
A growing library of cited, plain-language articles on women's energy, hormones and metabolism in midlife, and the books they come from. Every claim that rests on research links out to the paper it came from, so you can check me rather than trust me.
The Good Years
A Woman’s Guide to Healthspan, Strength, and Longevity in Midlife and Beyond
Almost every famous longevity book was written by a man, built on research done mostly in men. This one is written for a woman’s body, and every one of its 639 claims carries a tag showing how good the evidence behind it actually is. Out now on Kindle at $9.99 and in paperback at $21.99.
Your Body’s Own GLP-1
A Woman’s Guide to Weight, Hormones, and Appetite in the Weight-Loss Drug Era
The complete, science-grounded picture of the weight-loss shots for women: the real trial data weighed fairly, and every natural way to support the GLP-1 your body already makes. Now on Amazon in Kindle, paperback, and hardcover, and free to read in Kindle Unlimited.
