Holy Hormones Honey! | VoiceAmerica™
Guest Information – Holly Grigg-Spall
Episode Description
When the birth control pill came on the market in the 60’s it bolstered a feminist revolution giving women new freedoms and the right to control their reproductive health. Somewhere along the way our right to birth control is now being used to control our bodies. The pill has been promoted as a safe, easy to take daily medication – but is now known to cause severe side effects and death. Holly Grigg-Spall, author of Sweetening the Pill Or How We Got Hooked on Hormonal Birth Control will be sharing research and concerns about synthetic hormones. We should all be concerned. By 2015 over 200 million women will be on birth control. How many of us know how this drug works – how many are told about the potential side effects – and how many of us know that it depletes vital nutrients that can cause depression, anxiety, and panic attacks? Over half of the 80% of women who pop the pill in their life time experience these adverse effects.
