“I don't understand why we're not shouting this from the rooftops, a simple medicine, a natural hormone, that can reduce the risk of both diabetes and breast cancer. That's incredibly important, isn't it?”    This week, Dr Louise Newson is joined by Franck Mauvais-Jarvis, Professor of Medicine at Tulane University and an endocrinologist specialising in metabolism.   In this episode, they dive deep into the science behind oestradiol's crucial role in maintaining a healthy metabolism, reducing inflammation throughout the body, and supporting memory and cognition.  Professor Mauvais-Jarvis explains how improving mitochondrial function, often referred to as the “powerhouse of the cell,” boosts metabolism and helps prevent metabolic diseases such as diabetes. He also highlights the vital, often overlooked role of testosterone in women's health.  Together they address common misconceptions stemming from the 2002 Women's Health Initiative (WHI) study and set the record straight on the benefits of body-identical hormones.   Be sure to check out Professor Franck Mauvais-Jarvis's book, Principles of Precision Hormone Therapy: Healthy Aging and Prevention of Chronic Disease, which presents cutting-edge scientific data and insights from leading experts, including Dr Louise Newson, on the vital role of hormone optimisation in healthy aging.  Available to watch on YouTube We hope you're enjoying season 2!

Happy Friday EICers, settle in we've got some problems to solve...this week on the podcast, we're talking about the problem with personal essays, and the trouble with wanting men.For The Bookseller, Caroline O'Donoghue wrote a piece titled 'up close and personal: Why are female authors asked to bare their souls to promote their books?'. She writes 'My 25-year-old self wrote about her smear test because she was trying to crowbar her way into an industry that felt like a locked room. Now, at 35, I'm beginning to feel I'm trapped in a room that is locked from the inside.'Why do we not trust women to be as smart and as interesting story tellers as men, why do we need this level of emotional investment in female writers' lives to buy their work?Next up, The Trouble With Wanting Men. In a recent New York Times article of the same name, writer Jean Garnett asks what we as women should do with our desire when so many of find ourselves fed up of dating men. And she looks at this through the lens of “heteropessimism” or “heterofatalism” as it's now been amended to, which is a term that was coined by sexuality scholar Asa Seresin in 2019 in a piece for the New Inquiry. And in this piece Seresin defines it as such “ Heteropessimism consists of performative disaffiliations with heterosexuality, usually expressed in the form of regret, embarrassment, or hopelessness about straight experience. Heteropessimism generally has a heavy focus on men as the root of the problem.” She goes on to discuss how, though sincere, this feeling most often isn't accompanied by action, as most women who express it, will continue to date men.We hope you enjoy, as always please do rate & review :) B,R,O xxAND please vote for us in the British Podcast Awards listener nominations hereIn collaboration with CueRuchira's been loving FriendshipBeth's been loving First DatesOenone's been loving Jurassic World RebirthWhy Are Female Authors Asked To Bare Their Souls To Promote Their Books?Where''s The 'You'? - Naoise DolanThe Trouble With Wanting Men Hosted on Acast.

In the early hours of Tuesday 27th of August 2019, in an unnamed flat on Woking Close, 15-month old Jacob Lennon was lying in his cot and dreaming innocent dreams. Like every child, he was small, fragile and needed protection from life's dangers.

People will do crazy things to keep hold of power.The Habsburgs - one of the most powerful families in European history - were a prime example of this. To keep hold of their power, they decided they would keep their gene pool as small as possible.What were the disastrous consequences of this incest? How common was incest in royal families? And how did it all end for this dynasty, which included Charles II of Spain and Marie Antoinette?Helping Kate get to know them is historian, Associate Professor in History at Northeastern University London and descendent of the Habsburgs(!), Estelle Paranque.This episode was edited by Tom Delargy and produced by Stuart Beckwith.

In what Dr Louise Newson calls ‘the most impactful podcast I've ever recorded', this powerful episode shares the extraordinary story of Hayley and her son, Jay.Hayley spent nearly 30 years in and out of psychiatric hospitals. She was diagnosed with postnatal psychosis, premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD), depression and treatment-resistant mental illness. She was prescribed antipsychotics, antidepressants and even received electroconvulsive therapy. At one point, she was told she might have dementia. After years of watching his mum, Hayley, struggle with severe mental illness, hospital stays, and treatments that never truly helped, her son Jay came across an episode of the Dr Louise Newson discussing the impact of hormones on mental health. For the first time, things started to make sense.It led him to question whether hormones could have been the missing piece all along. With persistence and care, he pushed for Hayley to be given HRT, and the results were life changing. Together, Jay and Hayley share their emotional story of misdiagnosis, misunderstanding, and the powerful difference hormone treatment made after decades of suffering.This episode is not just a story: it's a call to action. It highlights the often-ignored link between hormones and mental health, the systemic failures in women's healthcare, and the critical need for change.Please listen, reflect and share. Because not everyone has a son like Jay.We're delighted to have been nominated in the Listeners' Choice category for the British Podcast Awards.

Ep306: The Double Murder of Annie Curtin. The tragic life of Annie Curtin is one that you will have never heard of before, and yet, it's unnervingly familiar. She was an ordinary woman, a wife and a mother, living a regular life who deserved the right to live unharmed and unhurt. Frustratingly, there were laws put in place to protect her, but witnessing failure after failure after failure, many of those same laws are as unfit today as they've always been.Date: Sunday the 10th of May 1931 at just 8am (rough time of attempted murder)Location: Second Floor, 11 Old Compton Street, Soho, London, UK, W1 Victim: 1 (Alice Annie Curtin, nee Hailey)Culprits: 1 (William James Curtin)This episode features a promo by Truly Criminal.

This week, we're asking if all this self-monitoring, self-optimising and endless tracking is actually helping us — or just making us more stressed and less happy. With over half of UK adults now owning some kind of wearable, we dig into whether chasing perfect sleep scores and stress metrics is doing more harm than good. Because decades of research still shows that happiness often comes when we look outward — being kind, connected and empathetic — not by obsessing over every tiny detail of ourselves. We also break down some of the biggest health stories right now. We look at new research on magic mushrooms being used to treat depression, why the results are genuinely promising, and why it's still not a miracle fix. Then we tackle the confusion around butter, steak, cheese and heart health. Is saturated fat really as bad as we've been told, or are the headlines just muddying the waters? We unpack what actually matters — from fat swaps to overall diet patterns. Then we take on the language of “guilt-free pleasures.” Whether it's dark chocolate, low-alcohol wine or high-fibre cereals, do we really need guilt in the food conversation at all? We think it's time to change how we talk about food. We also touch on the new nursery nutrition guidelines rolling out this September to help kids build better habits early on. Recommendations: Baked strawberries! Coat in either honey, maple syrup and sugar, pop in the oven for 15-20 mins at 180 and enjoy how much flavour you get Walking!

As a one-off special, today I'm rolling out a mash-up episode between myself, Mike from Murder Mile, and Taylor & Hannah from the brilliant Drunk Women Solving Crime to create DRUNK MILE. we kick off with a story about the time I was a victim of a crime (sort of), then for the first time in DWSC history Hannah and Taylor have a crime story presented to them by the studio guest as I open a cold case from history which really has "legs". And finish the same way as always with a crime story from a DWSC listener, and if nothing else the team solves the puzzle of what rhymes with 'orange'.Listen to Drunk Women Solving Crime on all podcast platforms - CLICK HERE.
