What do you think of when you hear the term \\u201cwomen\\u2019s health?\\u201d Traditionally, women\\u2019s healthcare is limited to maintaining the health of the reproductive system. Standard practices in women\\u2019s health include pelvic exams, mammography, and pregnancy and childbirth services. And while those services certainly have their role, women have many other systems in their body than just their reproductive organs.
Just like everything else in healthcare, it\\u2019s time to stop compartmentalizing women and start thinking of their bodies as interconnected, holistic beings. Women are far more likely than men to suffer from autoimmune diseases, anxiety, migraines, and Alzheimer\\u2019s disease. This is because of unique functions and risk factors in the female brain that have been ignored in the healthcare field\\u2014until now.\\xa0
In her new book, The XX Brain, Dr. Lisa Mosconi fills in the gaps on women\\u2019s health and shares research-based insights on how to protect and sustain the female brain. Her work is massively shifting the conversation around what actually differentiates women from men, and more importantly how to nurture and appreciate those differences. I hope this episode will inspire and empower you to maximize your brain health and live a longer, healthier life.\\xa0
