NBS #93: What Every Woman Should Know About Mold, Microplastics & Hormones
Manage episode 489529288 series 3305987
In this powerful episode of Never Been Sicker, Michael Rubino sits down with Dr. Suzanne Gilberg, Chief Clinical Officer of MonarchMD and author of Menopause Bootcamp, for a wide-ranging and eye-opening conversation about how environmental toxins—from mold to microplastics—are silently impacting our health, especially women’s health.
Dr. Gilberg is conventionally trained (board-certified in OBGYN and formerly in Integrative and Holistic Medicine), but her experience and curiosity led her to explore the deeper, often-overlooked environmental factors behind the rise in chronic illness—particularly among women going through perimenopause and menopause.
Dr. Gilberg also shares why she founded Menopause Bootcamp, the movement she started to create safe, supportive spaces where women can learn, connect, and take control of their health—without shame or gaslighting.
This conversation is a must-watch for anyone feeling dismissed, frustrated, or unsupported in their health journey. It’s also a wake-up call for how little our environment is being factored into mainstream healthcare—and why that needs to change.
