If anyone can connect the dots on women\\u2019s health, it\\u2019s today\\u2019s guest. Dr. Anna Cabeca is a triple-board certified doctor of gynecology and obstetrics who specializes in integrative medicine, anti-aging, and regenerative medicine. When she saw gaps in women\\u2019s health care she made it her life\\u2019s work to create\\xa0several highly acclaimed programs with natural solutions for women: Women\\u2019s Restorative Health, Sexual CPR, and Magic Menopause. Her newest program is called Keto-Green, and it\\u2019s all about doing a ketogenic diet with the right balance of alkaline vegetables, which I totally agree is the whole key.

Dr. Anna also serves on the Wellness Mama Medical Review Board and lends her expertise to our women\\u2019s health articles. She\\u2019s been interviewed by all major television networks and been featured on pretty much every major website as well, so I\\u2019m very grateful she made time to be here (again!) today.
