In this follow-up episode of Take Charge of Your Health, host Corinne Furnari, continues exploring the misunderstood relationship between hormones and cancer. Picking up from the prior interview with Dr. Jeffrey Dach, Furnari focuses on dismantling the widespread fear that estrogen causes breast cancer—a belief rooted in outdated science and misinterpreted studies.

With co-host Carol Petersen absent, Furnari leads the conversation solo, drawing on scientific research and past expert interviews to explain that the real concern lies with synthetic progestins, not natural or bioidentical estrogen. She revisits the Women’s Health Initiative (WHI) study, clarifying how its early conclusions were later revised, and stresses the importance of distinguishing between conventional hormone replacement therapy and bioidentical hormone therapy, which more closely mimics the body’s own chemistry.

Throughout the episode, Furnari fields live listener calls, offering personalized insights based on holistic principles, and emphasizes the value of supportive nutrients like iodine, selenium, and DIM for hormone regulation and cancer prevention.

By combining clinical insight with compassionate guidance, the episode empowers women to challenge fear-based narratives and consider safe, individualized strategies for maintaining hormonal health and reducing long-term risk.
