Women's Health and Cellular Function - #68

Health Trip Podcast | Jill Foos Wellness ·

2023/12/09

Menopause is not just about gaining weight, having hot flashes, and not sleeping well. It’s also about the decline of our cellular health, which contains these essential organelles called mitochondria. I’ve talked about mitochondria in passing on numerous podcasts, and dedicated a full episode on Urolithin A, a gut metabolite that induces mitophagy, or the cleaning up of our mitochondria, so be sure to check that one out. As we age and start the process of menopause, which includes perimenopause,

How can we take an ancient practice, modernize it, and use it during a time in a woman’s life when we are vulnerable and want to feel and look our very best? Some women are all in when it comes to taking hormones during the menopause transition, while others want a more holistic approach. How about combining the two? Is it possible?I have the perfect guest joining me today to break down what Ayurvedic medicine is and how it can fit into our modern society's need to feel and look great, mitigate

Stool Testing 101 - #65

Health Trip Podcast | Jill Foos Wellness ·

2023/11/10

Chronic disease states start in the gut. Stool testing has been gaining traction to help people reach their health goals by working on their gut health and overall well-being. Stool testing can take a look inside your gut microbiome and identify pathogens, parasites, keystone species, nutrients, genetic material, and more. Clinicians and doctors can utilize this valuable data to continue to prevent disease and turn around health conditions by making lifestyle changes and personalizing supplements,

Mitochondrial Health, Urolithin A and Women's Health...

Health Trip Podcast | Jill Foos Wellness ·

2023/10/30

Inside most of our cells, as well as plants, fungi, and animals, are the mitochondria, or power plants of cells. These little organelles make chemical energy, called ATP, or Adenosine Triphosphate, which is our body’s energy currency. About hair growth, for example, the cells that make up our hair follicles need a lot of energy to grow hair. About our skin cells, if we don’t have healthy mitochondria making enough ATP, we won’t have healthy, youthful-looking skin. This is true for our kidneys,

Gut Health and Menopause - #63

Health Trip Podcast | Jill Foos Wellness ·

2023/10/13

Every day we hear more and more about the importance of gut health and how it relates to all chronic disease states, such as cancer, Alzheimer’s Disease, cardiovascular disease, and type 2 diabetes. Our conventional healthcare system is not well-versed in preventive approaches to overall health, especially when it comes to gut health. More often than not, doctors we see are not asking us about the foods we are eating, or not eating, our level of daily stress, sleep, or exercise routine- all of which

Why Early Detection of Disease States Matter - #62

2023/10/01

Our current healthcare model is set up for sick care and acute care- so if you are already sick with cancer and receiving treatment, or cut your hand with a kitchen knife by accident, our healthcare system is helpful. What it isn’t set up for is preventive care. Lifestyle interventions are your first lines of defense- think about how nutrition, sleep, stress management, and exercise impact your life. Beyond that, what else could you be doing to prevent chronic disease states, such as Alzheimer’s

Optimizing Fat Loss During Menopause - #61

Health Trip Podcast | Jill Foos Wellness ·

2023/09/19

Menopause and fat loss- will they ever be friends? Women are not small men and the art of fat loss for menopausal and post-menopausal women can be challenging. Hormonal changes, especially with a decline in estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone levels during menopause often lead to a slower metabolism, loss of lean muscle mass, increased visceral fat level, decrease in bone mineral density, increased anxiety, poor sleep, and loss of overall strength. Sarcopenia, or muscle wasting, is a disease of

Building A Longevity Plan - #60

Health Trip Podcast | Jill Foos Wellness ·

2023/09/12

Longevity refers to how long you can live in a healthy state, void of chronic disease. The big 4 horsemen of chronic disease are Alzheimer’s Disease, cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, and cancer. If you could take the guesswork out and know what your body needed in order to thrive so you could live your most optimal life for as long as possible, would you be up for that? Most people are complacent when it comes to their lifespan, or the length of years they live, regardless of their health

Social Determinants of Women's Health - #59

Health Trip Podcast | Jill Foos Wellness ·

2023/08/28

Social determinants of health are nonmedical factors that influence health outcomes. Think of healthcare access and quality, economic stability, neighborhood, and built environments, such as parks, community fitness centers, and access to nutritious food. Many of us don’t have to think about these things because we live in well-established communities, have access to multiple grocery stores, and have opportunities to safely exercise at parks, hike on trails, and workout at community gyms.

Hair Loss Solutions For Midlife Women - #58

2023/08/22

A new study found that hair loss affects over 52% of women over 50 years old, and 80% of women by the time they are 60 years old. During peri-menopause, menopause, and post-menopause, women's hormones are fluctuating, decline, and causing chronic hair shedding, thinning, and hair loss in many women. During women's midlife years, there are other hormonal changes going on causing weight gain, leading to yo-yo dieting, increased stress, disrupted sleep, and challenges with exercising.

Menopause and Midlife Women's Heart Health - #57

2023/08/12

Many midlife women that I work with, and are friends with, fear getting breast cancer more than heart disease. The focus on cardiovascular health is often not listed on my client’s health history form as an area of concern. Did you know that heart disease is the #1 cause of death for both women and men? Over 60M women in the U.S. live with some form of heart disease. While there are many unique risk factors for women developing heart disease, which we are going to cover in this episode, one of them

Hair Loss and Micronutrient Deficiencies - #56

Health Trip Podcast | Jill Foos Wellness ·

2023/07/26

Micronutrients are the nutrients our body needs in lesser amounts to grow and develop. These include vitamins and minerals, and our body cannot manufacture these, so we must obtain them thru diet and supplementation. There are water-soluble and fat-soluble vitamins, macrominerals, and trace minerals. One of the best ways to look inside your cell to see what your nutrient status is is by taking a micronutrient test. This test tells you if your cells are stable, borderline deficient, or functionally

Metabolic Flexibility and Midlife Women's Health - #55

Health Trip Podcast | Jill Foos Wellness ·

2023/06/28

Metabolic flexibility is the body’s ability to utilize different sources of fuel for energy - either glucose and fat, stored body fat or fuel from food. Most people are fueled by glucose because of their poor diet, especially the Standard American Diet. As we age, metabolism also slows down. Our mitochondria decrease in both quality and quantity, affecting our ability to produce energy within the cell. Signs that one is metabolically inflexible are weight gain, cravings between meals, and low

Optimizing Midlife Human Performance - #53

Health Trip Podcast | Jill Foos Wellness ·

2023/05/31

Midlife is defined as being between the ages of 35-60 yrs old. This is when we start to see and feel changes, and not in the direction we want. Brain fog, forgetting where we left our keys, more trips to get Botox, belly fat, dreaded hair thinning, chronic fatigue, horrible sleep, and, sadly, low to no libido – the list goes on and on. As we age, the doors to chronic disease open up: heart disease, Alzheimer’s, type 2 diabetes, and cancer all become real possibilities for most of us. I’m all in

Today I am focusing on osteoporosis and midlife women. It’s called the “silent disease” because you can’t feel your bones getting weaker. The National Osteoporosis Foundation offers these facts:-1 in 2 women will break a bone due to osteoporosis after the age of 50.-A woman’s risk of fracture is equal to her combined risk of breast, uterine, and ovarian cancer.-24% of hip fracture patients age 50 and over die in the year following the fracture.-A bone density test is the best way to diagnose

PCOS, or Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, is one of the most common causes of female infertility, affecting 6% to 12% (as many as 5 million) of US women of reproductive age. There’s no known cause of PCOS, but several mechanisms have been linked to this syndrome, such as hormonal imbalance, insulin resistance, and genetics. Women with PCOS can develop serious health issues, especially if they are overweight. Here are some stats from the CDC: -more than half of women with PCOS develop type 2 diabetes by

With my oldest son's wedding in six months, i decided to try two newer modalities on the market and am sharing my experience with you.When working with my clients on their hair growth journeys, as well as my own, I work with three buckets: lifestyle
