Episode 059: Welcome back for another instalment of Real Health Radio, on today’s show I’m interviewing Dr Brooke Kalanick.
A licensed Naturopathic Doctor (ND), Dr. Brooke attended Seattle, Washington’s Bastyr University, where she earned a Doctorate in Naturopathic Medicine and Masters in Acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine.
Dr. Brooke takes a balanced approach to health, using both conventional and alternative therapies. Metabolic nutrition, fat loss resistance, and fitness remain her area of focus and in her Manhattan clinic she primarily treats women with Hashimoto’s Hypothyroidism and PCOS – as well as other female hormone imbalances. With these women she works to reset their hormones, their heads, and their habits, so they can finally feel at home in their bodies.
