Ever walk into a room and forget why? Or open five tabs and instantly lose track of all of them? If your mind feels like it's running on dial-up lately, you're not alone and you're definitely not broken. In this episode, Jen dives into the real reasons behind brain fog in midlife. From hormonal shifts to chronic stress and lifestyle habits, she breaks down why your brain's “buffering” and what you can do to clear the fog.

"Your periods shouldn't be unbearably painful. Most women in their 50s will experience dryness. Muscle mass matters more than being thin." These are just some of the straightforward truths nurse midwife Claire McStacy shares in this comprehensive conversation about women's health through the decades.From establishing care in your twenties to navigating the changes of menopause, this episode cuts through the noise of trending TikTok videos to deliver practical guidance on what's actually happening in your body and what you can do about it. McStacy brings 23 years of experience to address questions many women have but don't know who to ask: When should cervical cancer screening begin? (Age 21.) What does perimenopause actually feel like? (Brain fog, irregular periods, and possibly up to ten years of symptoms.) How do hormones affect your heart health after menopause? (Significantly, women lose estrogen's protective effects, making heart attack risk similar to men's, though symptoms present differently.)The conversation tackles critical but often overlooked topics, including PCOS (affecting 8% of women), the importance of preconception health, managing fibroids (particularly common among African American women) and the benefits and risks of hormone replacement therapy. Throughout, McStacy emphasizes the importance of establishing and maintaining a relationship with your healthcare provider for personalized guidance.Perhaps most powerfully, this episode challenges listeners to prioritize self-care at every stage of life. As McStacy notes, "When you have time for yourself, you have time for everybody else." Whether you're concerned about fertility in your twenties, managing work-life balance in your thirties, noticing perimenopausal symptoms in your forties or navigating post-menopausal changes in your fifties, this comprehensive guide helps you understand what's normal, when to seek help and how to advocate for your health.For more content from Centra Health check us out on the following channels.YouTubeFacebookInstagramTwitter

Joint aches. Softer muscles. Saggy skin. Brain fog.  Dealing with these not-so-fun issues in midlife? Trust me, you're not the only one. But… these changes aren't “just a part of getting older”. In this podcast, I'm joined by the brilliant Dr. Greg Kelly, Senior VP of Product Development at Qualia Life and a leader in anti-aging and cellular health, to unpack the powerful concept of cellular senescence, also known as “zombie cells.”  These cells don't die when they should, sticking around to cause inflammation, slow down your metabolism, and accelerate aging in your skin, joints, muscles, and brain.  The good news? You're not powerless! Dr. Kelly shares how senolytics—natural compounds that help your body clear out zombie cells—can dramatically shift how you age, supporting your body's innate ability to regenerate.  If you've been feeling like your body is betraying you, this episode will bring hope and science-backed strategies to help you feel vibrant, clear-headed, and strong again. Tune in now! Gregory Kelly N.D. Dr. Gregory Kelly is a naturopathic physician, the SVP of Product Development at Qualia Life, and the author of the book Shape Shift. He was the editor of the journal Alternative Medicine Review and has been an instructor at the University of Bridgeport in the College of Naturopathic Medicine. Dr. Kelly has published hundreds of articles on natural medicine and nutrition, contributed three chapters to the Textbook of Natural Medicine, and has more than 30 journal articles indexed on PubMed. IN THIS EPISODE Enhancing longevity AND wellness in your later years  What are zombie cells, and how do they contribute to aging?  Main parts of the body impacted by zombie or senescent cells  Senolytics and how they work against zombie cells in the body  Qualia Senolytics and the science and research behind them Top non-negotiable supplements for optimal health  Enhancing women's hormonal and reproductive longevity  How to get Qualia Senolytic NOW at a discounted rate!  QUOTES “As these zombie cells accumulate wherever in our body, our joints, our skin, our brain, our muscle tissues, our fat tissues, they cause both local problems and systemic problems.”  “They scanned a whole bunch of different compounds, both plant extracts and actual medications, and came up with two that, especially when combined together, worked really well to get these zombie cells to finally go through cellular death.” “These people all had some degree of joint discomfort, and what we saw was about a 60% improvement over three dosing cycles.

What if the autoimmune condition you're dealing with today was actually programmed into your immune system decades ago during childhood? In this mini episode, Dr. Aimie answers a listener's question about the biological mechanisms connecting early attachment trauma to autoimmunity, and most importantly, what to do about it. She goes into the biology behind how childhood fear literally programs your immune system at the cellular level, creating a biological foundation for autoimmune conditions that can emerge years or decades later, often triggered by additional stressors like accidents, infections, or major life events. You'll learn more about:  Why fear causes inflammation How early fear creates overactive brain immune cells (microglia) that cause symptoms like brain fog and decision fatigue  The three key immune system pathways that determine whether your body stays in "inflammation mode" or switches to "repair mode" Practical actions you can take to rebalance your immune system Whether you're a practitioner working with autoimmune clients or someone with your own autoimmune journey, this episode reveals the hidden biological connections between early life experiences and immune dysfunction and offers hope through practical interventions that work at the cellular level. Listen to Episode 128: How Attachment Drives Anxiety, Autoimmunity and Chronic Illness to explore the six core attachment pains and their biological impacts.

You've probably heard the phrase “the body keeps the score”—but what does that actually mean?If you've ever dealt with chronic tightness, gut issues, jaw clenching, or exhaustion that just won't quit… your body might be holding on to more than stress. It might be storing trauma.In this episode, we're diving into the science of somatic memory—how your nervous system encodes unprocessed trauma and stress into your tissues, and how that stored tension can quietly sabotage your energy, focus, and well-being.You'll learn: 

Behind many chronic symptoms is one unseen disruptor: your toxic load.You've cleaned up your diet, run the basic labs, maybe even tried supplements,... so why do symptoms like brain fog, fatigue, or hormonal shifts keep lingering? In this conversation, we zoom in on what standard care often misses: the toxins building up in your body and their effects on your gut, brain, and immune system long before a diagnosis ever appears. Our guest, Dr. Tom O'Bryan, explains why autoimmunity and cognitive decline don't start overnight and the early patterns for detection He also encourages how specialized tests like the Total Toxin Burden and Neuro Zoomer can uncover root causes that aren't always obvious, especially when traditional labs come back “normal.” Tune in to learn how functional medicine can help you identify what's really driving your symptoms and what you can do about it.Episode Timeline: 0:00 — Podcast Intro0:36 — Welcome Message & Disclaimer2:10 — Meet Dr. Tom O'Bryan3:29 — How Infertility Sparked Dr. Tom's Career5:33 — The Inflammation Link Behind Hormone Issues8:04 — How Plastic Chemicals Affect Your Child's IQ10:48 — Glyphosate and Sperm Health13:19 — Why Fertility Clinics Miss the Root Cause18:03 — Should You Test or Just Detox?20:50 — Preconception and Generational Health23:03 — Gut Health Explained: The Cheesecloth Analogy25:21 — Leaky Gut and Food Sensitivities26:59 — Leaky Brain and Inflammation Risks29:21 — The “I Feel Fine” Syndrome: Why Early Testing Matters32:31 — Alzheimer's and the 25-Year Prodromal Period39:27 — The Autoimmune Spectrum: From Normal to Diagnosis41:35 — Inflammation: The Real Root Cause Behind Chronic Disease45:33 — A Call to Test: Know What You're Dealing With46:53 — Mold, Brain Fog, and the Missed Environmental Triggers50:36 — Why “You're a Mess” Can Be Good News53:11 — Is European Wheat Safer?

In this episode, Inna shares a real-life case where a client was stuck in that very situation, caught between protocols and unsure how to move forward. What helped wasn't more advice, instead it was learning to trust her own intuition.To explore this idea further, Inna is joined by Karly Ashworth, a transformational coach and intuitive guide who helps people reconnect to their inner voice and find clarity. Together, they talk about how tuning into your intuition can help you navigate confusing symptoms, make better health decisions, and even uncover emotional patterns that might be affecting your thyroid.They dive into what intuition really is (and why we all have it), how it relates to the throat chakra and the thyroid, and why emotional triggers such as indecision or self-doubt can sometimes do just as much damage as physical ones. Karly also shares practical ways to quiet the noise, get grounded, and start recognizing the signals your body is already sending you.Whether you've been second-guessing your health decisions or you've just felt out of touch with your body, this episode is a powerful reminder that sometimes, the answers you're looking for aren't out there but they're already within.For full show notes, please see (TIM PLEASE ADD LINK)Get ThyroLove - the first all in one bottle multi-nutrient comprehensive formula designed specifically for those with Hashimoto's at ThyroLove.com - use code “Podcast” to get 10% off and free shipping For more information about everything Hashimoto's please visit InnaTopiler.comIf you are struggling to lose weight with Hashimoto's, Inna has a 10 day plan just for you at InnaTopiler.com/jumpstartIf you need help with fatigue or brain fog with Hashimoto's, please check out Inna's 9 Day Exhaustion Solution at innatopiler.com/energyIf you don't yet know your thyroid type, please be sure you sign up for Inna's next free training at InnaTopiler.com/zoomcall

Are you ready to tackle the unique challenges of wellness after 40? In this empowering episode of Salad with a Side of Fries, Jenn Trepeck hosts a comprehensive Q&A explicitly designed for women navigating midlife. From boosting energy to balancing hormones and thriving through menopause, Jenn covers it all, starting with a deep dive into key hormones like estrogen and progesterone and how they affect weight loss, energy, and fat distribution.Jenn explores the realities of menopause and perimenopause, including changes to the menstrual cycle, shifts in fertility, and the importance of protein for muscle and bone health. You'll learn how phytoestrogens may offer symptom relief, how gut health and the parasympathetic nervous system impact mood and nutrient absorption, and how better sleep can help reduce brain fog and fatigue. Whether you're adjusting your routine or looking for expert-backed tips to feel your best, this episode is packed with actionable advice to help you navigate midlife with confidence and clarity.The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, who discusses wellness and weight loss in real life, clearing up myths, misinformation, and bad science surrounding our nutrition knowledge and the food industry. Let's dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store.IN THIS EPISODE: (01:19) Jenn shares her professional relationship with Christine(06:13) Jenn discusses estrogen, progesterone, fat removal and weight management(13:07) How age affects menopause, menstrual cycle, fertility and estrogen levels(19:45) What is the role of protein over 40, and how to maintain muscle and bone health(25:36) Discussion of hormones to support weight loss, energy, and phytoestrogens(30:46) Your gut, nutrient absorption, and the parasympathetic nervous system(36:24) Improving sleep quality and managing fatigue and brain fog. What about nap time(42:17) Discussion of signs and treatments for menopausal symptoms and supplements(48:13) Common health risks for women in their late 30s and 40s, and related medical tests(51:39) What ingredients are most effective for aging skin, adjusting the skin care routine(57:50) Reducing fine lines, wrinkles and age spotsKEY TAKEAWAYS:The challenge with weight loss after age 40 is primarily due to the decline of estrogen and progesterone production, which reduces insulin sensitivity, impairs sleep, and alters fat distribution, making fat removal (not just weight loss) slower and more difficult. Sustainable fat loss prioritizes health over rapid results.Low estrogen and progesterone levels can impact mood, sleep, and appetite, leading to an increased desire for comfort foods. Phytoestrogens (e.g., wild yam, black cohosh) and fiber-rich foods (e.g., cruciferous vegetables) support hormone metabolism and mood stability.Women over 40 need ~1 gram of protein per pound of body weight daily (4-6 ounces per meal, 2-3 ounces per snack) to maintain muscle and bone health. Resistance training, weight-bearing exercise, and minerals (e.g., magnesium) are critical.Low estrogen levels can cause skin dryness and wrinkles. Hydration, vitamin C, retinol, and hyaluronic acid improve skin appearance. Consistent skincare routines (cleanse, tone, treat, moisturize) reduce the appearance of age and Gua Sha massage may reduce menopausal symptoms like hot flashes.QUOTES:        (06:25) "There is fast weight loss at any age, provided you don't care how long it lasts or what happens to your health." - Jenn Trepeck(08:20) "Estrogen, the presence of estrogen and increased estrogen when we're younger in life, keeps us more insulin sensitive. It keeps us more metabolically fit." - Jenn Trepeck(21:27) "We want to aim for a gram of protein for every pound of body weight." - Jenn Trepeck(27:01) "We have less wiggle room. That estrogen was our cushion and when you eliminate the cushion, you've got less wiggle room." - Jenn Trepeck(31:00) “Bottom line, your gut is responsible for nutrient absorption and communicating all over the body.” Jenn TrepeckRESOURCES:Become A Member of Salad with a Side of FriesJenn's Free Menu PlanA Salad With a Side of FriesA Salad With A Side Of Fries MerchA Salad With a Side of Fries InstagramHormones and Body Composition (feat.

When a patient has tried every clean-eating plan, every supplement protocol, and every practitioner,  but is still exhausted, anxious, and foggy  it's time to look where no one else has. In this episode, Inna teams up with functional dentist Dr. Michelle Jorgensen to explore a very overlooked trigger and aggravator for Hashimoto's symptoms: your mouth.Through the case of “Cindy,” a Hashimoto's patient who did everything right but still wasn't getting better, Inna and Dr. Michelle reveal how hidden dental infections, past root canals, and even the materials used in old dental work can silently drive inflammation and autoimmune flares. What looks like “perfect” dental health on X-rays might actually be masking deep, ongoing issues that most conventional dentists never catch.Dr. Michelle brings her unique insight as a dentist-turned-health detective, showing how problems like cavitations, mixed metals, and even mouth breathing can create a ripple effect on the immune system, the microbiome, and the thyroid. She also explains how to safely investigate and address these issues  and why healing often requires asking the questions no one else is asking.This episode opens a powerful new conversation for anyone with Hashimoto's who still doesn't feel well despite doing “everything right” and exactly what you can do to explore what your mouth is trying to tell you.----------For full show notes, please see:https://innatopiler.com/podcasts/root-canals-cavities-hashimotos-dentist-dr-michelle-jorgensen/Get ThyroLove - the first all in one bottle multi-nutrient comprehensive formula designed specifically for those with Hashimoto's at ThyroLove.com - use code “Podcast” to get 10% off and free shipping For more information about everything Hashimoto's please visit InnaTopiler.comIf you are struggling to lose weight with Hashimoto's, Inna has a 10 day plan just for you at InnaTopiler.com/jumpstartIf you need help with fatigue or brain fog with Hashimoto's, please check out Inna's 9 Day Exhaustion Solution at innatopiler.com/energyIf you don't yet know your thyroid type, please be sure you sign up for Inna's next free training at InnaTopiler.com/zoomcall

Are you a serial snacker? Is there ALWAYS room for dessert? Do you find yourself feeling hungry throughout the day, despite just eating? Or maybe you notice reaching for a bag of chips whenever you're feeling stressed? Did you know that there are actually different types of hunger that can shape our eating habits? Spoiler: You're NOT broken!Welcome to Salad with a Side of Fries, the podcast where we dig into the surprising truths about how we eat and why. Today, host and health coach Jenn Trepeck is tackling a topic that's far more complex than it seems: hunger. We're going to explore the fascinating world of hedonic hunger, the kind driven by pure pleasure, and how it can often override our natural homeostatic hunger, that biological signal that tells us we actually need fuel. We'll also explore how processed foods significantly impact our hunger signals and strategies for managing each type. Get ready to rethink everything you thought you knew about your cravings and your plate, because by the end of this episode, you'll have a whole new understanding of what it means to truly be hungry. The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, who discusses wellness and weight loss in real life, clearing up myths, misinformation, and bad science surrounding our nutrition knowledge and the food industry. Let's dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store.IN THIS EPISODE: (00:00) Hedonic hunger, driven by dopamine, can override the biological drive of homeostatic hunger(06:48) Hunger is not a moral failing, and how to identify homeostatic hunger(12:01) Cravings versus hunger, and studies show high nutrient density diets reduce hunger pains and cravings(16:58) Is it hunger, or is it restriction, and hedonic hunger involves eating for pleasure, triggered by ultra-processed foods or stress(22:47) Controlling hedonic hunger(27:35) Emotional hunger is eating to cope with emotions, and recognizing emotional eating is key to managing it(33:50) Conditioned hunger is defined as a learned response to stimuli or situations(37:55) Hidden hunger is defined as cellular micronutrient deficiency, often from processed foods(43:00) Toxic hunger is defined as discomfort from processed food toxins(47:34) Nutrient-dense, whole foods emphasized as key to balancing all hunger typesKEY TAKEAWAYS:Hunger is multifaceted and often extends beyond the need for energy. There are several types of hunger—hedonic, emotional, conditioned, hidden, and toxic—that are distinct from basic physiological (homeostatic) hunger. This indicates that a complex interplay of pleasure can drive eating, emotions, learned responses, and even cellular deficiencies or toxic exposures, rather than just an empty stomach.Understanding the various drivers of hunger is crucial for managing eating behaviors effectively. Recognizing whether hunger is due to a biological need, an emotional state, a learned trigger, or even a cellular deficiency allows individuals to address the root cause more effectively. For example, emotional eating requires different strategies than homeostatic hunger.Food quality has a significant impact on hunger and overall well-being. Eating Nutrient-dense foods can reduce true hunger pains and cravings, while processed foods contribute to "hidden" and "toxic" hunger due to nutrient deficiencies and the presence of toxins. This underscores the importance of whole, unprocessed foods not just for satiety, but also for preventing various forms of discomfort and health issues often mistaken for hunger.QUOTES: (07:13) "The body only has so many ways to communicate with us." - Jenn Trepeck(14:21) “Eating nutrient-dense foods minimizes hunger pains." - Jenn Trepeck(21:06) “Hedonic hunger is when people get into that shame and blame and beat themselves up.” - Jenn Trepeck(31:12) “One of the best questions my therapist ever asked me was, where am I not being fed?" - Jenn TrepeckRESOURCES:Become A Member of Salad with a Side of FriesJenn's Free Menu PlanA Salad With a Side of FriesA Salad With A Side Of Fries MerchA Salad With a Side of Fries InstagramNutrition Nugget: HungerThe Bulls-Eye of Change

How are your nutrition habits? (Day in, day out.) Are you specifically working towards fueling up to boost your energy and reduce your brain fog?  Food is powerful. If you've been part of my TW community, you've heard me say that food can be medicine or poison.  It's THAT powerful.  I didn't say that but Hippocrates, the father of nutrition, did.  But I can assure you it is 1000% TRUE.  I saw it with my daughter's illness that conventional medicine flat out denied.... (then proceeded for 3 long years to medicate her, test her and then ultimately, with NO answers, tell me it was in her head.)  BUT FOOD HAD EVERYTHING TO DO WITH WHY SHE WAS SO SICK. Food can either be medicine and bring health to the body OR it can be poison and bring sickness to the body.  I'm happy to share six sustainable lifestyle shifts that start in your kitchen. These are practical, doable changes designed to fight fatigue and brain fog, so you can shine (and heal) from the inside out….  Your nutritional habits really make a difference in how your body feels and responds.  Summer is here… with that comes indulgences. And many times that leads to not so happy side effects. More brain fog. More tiredness. More bloating. More headaches. More... Don't worry, we're not gonna talk about eating less but eating right to nourish your body and soul. So grab a glass of lemon water, cozy up, and let's dive into these nutrition & lifestyle habits that you can begin to implement right now. These nutrition and lifestyle habits are doable and sustainable to help you boost your energy and beat that annoying brain fog.   I pray this blesses you and moves you to action today! XO, Michelle Book your  Fatigue Freedom Call today, where together we will uncover what's really keeping you exhausted AND show you how you can start feeling BETTER in your whole health, within DAYS.

Liz & Becca break down the buzzy world of nootropics—also known as “smart drugs.” Are they miracle brain boosters or just more expensive snake oil? You'll learn the real science behind nootropics, which ones actually work (and which don't), and how they affect focus, energy, and mood—especially for women juggling stress, brain fog, and hormonal shifts. They share what to avoid, what to consider, and how to support cognitive performance naturally before reaching for pills or powders. If you're tired of feeling mentally drained and emotionally off—this one's for you. *** Early Bird Tickets (only a few left): ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠FitMom | Own It! : The Women's Health & Mindset Summit Live⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ***

Happy Wednesday, Heal Squad! We're back with Part 2 of our fascinating conversation with the Medical Medium, Anthony William, and this one's a deep dive into some of the most misunderstood chronic conditions. Anthony pulls back the curtain on anxiety, depression, autoimmune issues, and why so many people are suffering in silence without clear answers. He explains how symptoms we often blame on “stress” or “genetics” may be signs of deeper imbalances, from viral infections and heavy metal toxicity to adrenal fatigue and a sluggish liver. We also explore the power of healing foods like celery juice and wild blueberries, and how small, daily changes can create major shifts in your energy, brain fog, and emotional resilience. It's time to reclaim your power and become your own health advocate, tune in!  HEALERS & HEAL-LINERS:  Anxiety isn't always mental. It can be a physical signal of viral or toxic overload. Cleaning up your diet and supporting your nervous system may help where medications fall short. Autoimmune isn't your body turning on itself. Anthony shares how viruses and toxins (not self-destruction) are the real culprits behind so many misdiagnosed chronic conditions. Celery juice isn't just trendy, it's transformational. Starting your day with celery juice can help flush toxins, support digestion, and restore clarity to your mind and body. -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy's Page: Shop My Macy's Storefront Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off Delete Me: https://bit.ly/43rkHwi   code: SQUAD EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/  Join In-Person Heal Retreat Waitlist! https://mariamenounos.myflodesk.com/heal-retreat-waitlist THE MEDICAL MEDIUM RESOURCES: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/medicalmedium/?hl=en  Website: https://www.medicalmedium.com/  Find Anthony's books (& some of my other favorites!) here: https://shopmy.us/collections/106835 ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos' passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

Have you ever asked yourself: "Why am I so tired, even after a full night's sleep?" "Am I really present for my kids, or just physically there?" "Could my low energy be impacting my marriage and family life?" If these questions hit home, get ready for a raw and real conversation that unpacks the silent battles many dads face. What happens when you get three dads, 12 kids, mountains of laundry, and enough Costco bills to bankrupt a small nation... all together on one podcast? Chaos? Yep. Laughter? Absolutely. But beneath the wild potty-training stories and "Dad, look at my squat!" moments, today's conversation hits something way deeper with Matt Salazar, father of five boys, entrepreneur, and co-founder of Gent Health, and his partner, Sonny Howard, a dad of three. A quick note for listeners: Gent Health is currently available to patients only in Texas, but they will be expanding to other states very soon. Matt Salazar opens up about the silent battles of brain fog, low motivation, and the gut-wrenching feeling of being "present, but not really there" for his family. Sonny Howard shares his own wake-up call, discovering dangerously low hormone levels that could have impacted his future and his ability to truly show up at home.  These guys aren't just talking about testosterone and peptides; they're talking about fatherhood, fighting through the fog, and why optimizing your health isn't just about you—it's about your family and your legacy.   In this powerful episode, we dig into: The Hidden Epidemic of Brain Fog & Low Motivation: Understanding why so many modern dads feel wiped out and disconnected. The Gut-Wrenching Reality of Being "Present, But Not There": How physical and mental fatigue can silently erode your family connections. The Personal Health Wake-Up Call: Matt Salazar and Sonny Howard's journeys to uncover underlying issues like hormonal imbalances and their impact on daily life. Beyond Muscles and Materialism: Why prioritizing your health is a crucial act of fatherhood and legacy-building. Optimizing Health for Family Impact: How taking control of your physical and mental well-being allows you to show up stronger for your kids and spouse. Whether you're crushing it in the gym or staring at your kids wondering why you're so wiped out, this episode will hit home.   Here's what research and observation highlight about men's health and its impact on family: Studies indicate that men experiencing low testosterone often report a 30% decrease in energy levels and a 25% increase in symptoms of brain fog. Fathers struggling with chronic fatigue are up to 40% less likely to engage in active play and meaningful conversations with their children. Optimizing male hormonal health has been linked to a 35% improvement in motivation and overall well-being, positively impacting family presence.   www.thedadedge.com/529 www.thedadedge.com/alliance www.gent.health www.instagram.com/genthealth
