What if we are beginning the conversation about breast health far too late?In this powerful episode, I’m joined by Dr Nyjon Eccles, founder and clinical lead of The Natural Doctor, a Harley Street practice specialising in precision longevity medicine.With more than 25 years of clinical experience, Dr Eccles works at the intersection of functional medicine, hormonal health, metabolic health and preventative oncology. Our conversation challenges some of the assumptions many of us have been given about breast screening, cancer risk and HRT and explores what a more preventative and personalised approach to women’s health could look like.We talk about:• The important difference between breast thermography and mammography • Why breast density matters, particularly for younger women • Whether women should begin monitoring their breast health before the age of 50 • What an abnormal thermogram may reveal before structural changes are detected • The relationship between nutritional deficiencies and breast health • The difference between synthetic, bioidentical and body-identical HRT • What women could ask their GP when discussing hormone replacement therapy • Why “normal” test results may not always mean optimal health • Functional medicine, longevity and finding the possible root causes of illnessAnd stay until the end, because I ask Dr Eccles one final question:If he could place one piece of health advice on the wall of every GP surgery in the country, what would it be?His answer is remarkably simple and it may completely change the question you ask at your next appointment.Find Dr Nyjon Eccles:The Natural Doctor: https://thenaturaldoctor.orgSubstack: Precision LongevityThis episode is for information and education only.
