This one covers everything related to HRT itself. First, a woman wants to transition off of pellets onto injectable testosterone, an estrogen patch, and oral progesterone, and she's worried about the hot flashes that tend to come back between pellets. Tanya walks through the real washout period research, why the sequencing looks differe...

Are we focusing on the wrong thing when it comes to protein and healthy aging?In this episode, I break down fascinating new research from my friend Dr. Valter Longo that could change the way you think about protein, muscle, and longevity. The key may not be how many grams of protein you eat, but how much of one specific amino acid, methionine, you're getting.I explain what the study found, why too much or too little methionine may matter, and how mTOR, IGF-1, GLP-1, and gut health fit into the

Most of us think of inflammation when an ankle swells or a cut turns red. It’s our body’s immune system, and without it, we couldn't fight infections or repair injuries.But when it stays switched on, this chronic inflammation can drain your energy, can affect your health over the years, and even lead to heart disease. Eventually, 1 in 3 of us will develop an inflammatory disease. In today's episode, Professor Luke O'Neill - one of the world's top 1% immunologists - explains why that matters and

In this episode, Dr. David Jockers breaks down the surprising warning signs of a zinc deficiency, a problem that affects an estimated 25% of the world's population, and likely far more since so few people ever get tested. You will learn what zinc actually does in your body, from powering the zinc finger proteins that support healthy DNA expression to producing superoxide dismutase (SOD) and stopping viral replication, plus the key symptoms that show up when you run low: loss of taste and smell,

Hi friends! I'm finally back with a new podcast episode and apparently I had a lot to say.  This one is part honest life update, part behind-the-scenes business plot twist, and part "ok what am I doing next?" After almost 18 years of building this business, the version that had worked for a very long time suddenly wasn't working the same way anymore. Losing a major income stream I had built on someone else's platform sent me into a full identity crisis and forced me to ask some uncomfortable

If your fuse got shorter somewhere in your forties, you're not imagining it. In this episode, Lynda Enright, MS, RDN, explains what actually happens to the brain during perimenopause — why estrogen acts as a brake on your stress response, what happens when that brake weakens, and why anxiety and mood changes show up in women who've never struggled with either. This isn't a character flaw. It's physiology, and understanding it gives you something to work with. Free video: https://www.bew...

Send us Fan Mail Real weight loss is not dramatic. It’s not a 5:00 AM grind, a fridge full of identical containers, or a new set of rules you can only follow when life is perfect. It’s Tuesday night at 9:30 when you’re bored, staring into the fridge, and you close the door anyway. It’s ordering the burger and skipping the fries because you realize you don’t need them. That’s the unsexy truth most “weight loss systems” can’t sell, and it’s why so many people keep losing the same 20 to 30 pound...

So what happens when cholesterol is too high—or potentially too low—when you're trying to conceive?

Back to the basics: what macros actually are, how to count them, and how to fine-tune them for your bio-individual needs. Most people can recite wellness rules - hit your macros, eat the rainbow, cut carbs, eat more protein - and still cannot tell you what a macronutrient is, how it differs from a micronutrient, or how to sort a bag of groceries by protein, fat, and carbohydrate.
