I am thrilled to reconnect with Dr. Sanjay Bhojraj today. Dr. Bhojraj is a board-certified interventional cardiologist who became a pioneer in functional medicine. In our conversation, we dive into palpitations, which are a common complaint among perimenopausal and menopausal women. We explore red flag symptoms, the physiological effects of progesterone, estrogen, and testosterone as they relate to heart arrhythmias, EKG changes during the perimenopause-to-menopause transition, and wearable technologies. We unpack the differences between benign and more concerning arrhythmias, risk factors for atrial fibrillation, and the process of taking a thorough history, ordering the correct tests, and using imaging or sleep studies when appropriate. We cover treatment pathways, from lifestyle modifications to medications, channelopathies, and the genetic propensities for conditions such as Long QT, Brugada Syndrome, WPW (Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome), and sudden cardiac death. We also highlight the importance of genetic testing for individuals with a family history of those conditions. Today's conversation with Dr. Sanjay Bhojraj is full of practical wisdom and clinical pearls, so you will most likely want to listen to it more than once. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: Why thyroid function should always be taken into account when assessing heart rhythm issues   How stress and life circumstances can trigger palpitations  The benefits of magnesium supplementation for supporting heart health What ventricular arrhythmias (from the bottom chambers) and atrial arrhythmias (from the top chambers) are commonly related to The value of monitoring for identifying the nature and severity of arrhythmias How sleep apnea can increase the risk of arrhythmia   The importance of exercise, stress management, and healthy lifestyle habits for supporting heart rhythm Why certain arrhythmias may require procedural interventions Why various types of athletic activity matter when evaluating arrhythmias How genetic factors can impact specialized heart assessments Connect with Cynthia Thurlow   Follow on X, Instagram & LinkedIn Check out Cynthia's website Submit your questions to support@cynthiathurlow.com Join other like-minded women in a supportive, nurturing community (The Midlife Pause/Cynthia Thurlow)  Cynthia's Menopause Gut Book is on presale now!

Send us a textIn this Fusion Hack, Dove Putterman breaks down one of the most misunderstood areas of physique development: the difference between training your abs and building a truly flat, tight, pressure-controlled core. Dove dives straight into the purpose of LPF (Low Pressure Fitness) — originally designed to help the body recover from the internal trauma of childbirth, and now used to optimize pressure management for athletes of all levels. Dove explains why you can have a low body-fat percentage yet still struggle with a protruding midsection, how LPF activates the transverse abdominis, and why so many athletes confuse “ab training” with actual core function. She breaks down common misconceptions about crunch variations, compounded ab work, and why your core is working in every workout, whether you realize it or not.Dr. Dove Putterman is a wife and a proud mother of FIVE amazing children! Seven years after giving birth to triplets, she stepped on stage for the first time and went on to earn her Wellness IFBB Pro card at the Natural Canadian Pro Qualifier. Struggling with core control issues after pregnancy, she discovered Low Pressure Fitness through the bodybuilding community which not only transformed her physique and remedied her lower back pain, but also inspired her to become a coach working with athletes from amateur competitors to Olympians and helping them master core control for posing, training and stability not to mention developing that hourglass shape on stage!https://www.instagram.com/drdove_ifbbprohttps://www.fitbodyfusion.com/pages/online-competition-coachingWelcome to FitBody Lifestyle the podcast hosted by Jami and Greg DeBernard!

I am honored to have Dr. Tom Dayspring join me again today for another AMA session. He and I have done eight podcasts before, and this is a continuation of our last Ask Me Anything episode.  Dr Dayspring is an esteemed expert on internal medicine and clinical lipidology. He is likely one of the most influential worldwide lipid experts, so I am thrilled to have him back with me to dive into various topics related to listener questions, including the impact of hormone replacement therapy on lipid changes, methods of administration, and why bioidentical hormone replacement therapy is preferable for managing both menopausal symptoms and lipid health. We discuss medications, including PCSK9 inhibitors and GLP-1s, as well as intermittent fasting, lipids, and cardiovascular disease risk. We also examine how heart disease develops gradually, over time, the impact of stress and lifestyle, and Dr. Dayspring shares the labs he recommends beyond traditional lipids, ApoB, and LpA. In our discussion, Dr. Dayspring noted that he was not in a position to speak about GLP-1 therapies or microdosing. Since I received many questions from listeners on those topics, I will host a future solo AMA to address some of their concerns. Today's conversation with Dr. Tom Dayspring is truly invaluable, and I trust you will walk away with valuable insights you can share with your healthcare providers. We created a PDF - cynthiathurlow.com/lipids -  specifically for listeners that outlines key labs to discuss with your providers and questions to ask them to help you advocate for your own health and your family members' health. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: Why being physically fit does not always eliminate the risk of heart problems arising How ApoB and cholesterol contribute to heart disease over decades Why the early testing of risk factors is essential How chronic stress increases the risk of heart disease  How high cortisol affects insulin sensitivity and glucose regulation How stress impacts endothelial and nitric oxide function The link between low Omega-3 levels and heart problems How insulin resistance degrades heart health How high homocysteine levels can impair endothelial function and contribute to cardiovascular problems Connect with Cynthia Thurlow   Follow on⁠ X⁠,⁠ Instagram⁠ &⁠ LinkedIn⁠ Check out Cynthia's⁠ website⁠ Submit your questions to support@cynthiathurlow.com Join other like-minded women in a supportive, nurturing community ⁠(The Midlife Pause/Cynthia Thurlow⁠)⁠ ⁠ Cynthia's⁠ Menopause Gut Book⁠ is on presale now!

Send us a textThis episode dives deep into one of the most misunderstood parts of physique sport: core function, pressure management, LPF (Low Pressure Fitness), and why what you do in training shows up on stage. Dove Putterman breaks down the nuances of breath, posture, transverse activation, and why a small waist has far more to do with internal mechanics than body fat percentage.From being asked if she was “expecting again,” to explaining why lean athletes can still carry belly protrusion, Dove opens up conversations most women are too embarrassed to ask. She reveals the truth about vacuums, rib flares, diaphragm dysfunction, and why so many competitors unknowingly create pressure issues that sabotage their appearance on stage.The episode mixes technical education with humor — mic bumps, slop transitions, banter with Jamie, and real-world examples like diaphragm massage (and yes… the bathroom aftermath). Dove breaks down sympathetic vs. parasympathetic training states, pressure mismanagement, rib positioning, bucket posture, and why exhale-focused training changes everything.She also highlights why LPF is the missing link for most athletes, why “breathwork” is often misunderstood, what a real vacuum actually is, and how small daily details add up to stage-shaping results. It's a highly informative, deeply practical, and refreshingly honest conversation about the mechanics behind an elite, functional, visually aesthetic core.Dr. Dove Putterman is a wife and a proud mother of FIVE amazing children!

If you've ever found yourselves arguing in circles, struggling to “turn off work mode” at home, or assuming the worst from your partner's tone, this conversation is going to hit home.

I'm excited to have Andie Crosby join me for a two-part series. In Part 1 today, we dive into why cardiovascular health is the number one longevity lever for women and how it is often ignored until it is too late. We explore the critical role of the endothelial glycocalyx, a microscopic life-sustaining structure that is essential for vascular integrity, the inflammation response, and nutrient delivery.  In Part 2 next week, we will cover how nitric oxide supports energy, sexual vitality, and even skin radiance, and factors that could damage the ability to produce it naturally.  How to Protect and Support the Endothelial Glycocalyx Reduce stress  Manage blood sugar   Prioritize sleep Meditate  Take clinically researched supplements.   Monitor your cardiovascular health with diagnostics and lifestyle tracking to catch and reverse arterial aging before it starts to progress. Bio: Andie Crosby Andie Crosby is a seasoned business leader and passionate advocate for health and longevity.  After decades leading marketing and brand development for companies like Nike, Apple, and Procter & Gamble, her focus shifted in her 40s when she experienced firsthand the impact of hormonal changes, inflammation, and the power of nutrition to transform health.  A simple elimination diet revealed how profoundly food and lifestyle impacted her well-being, sparking a deep curiosity about health and healing.  This led her to the Institute for Functional Medicine, where she became the first Chief Marketing Officer.  Over ten years, Andie built IFM's marketing and partnerships teams, driving a 13-fold increase in practitioner education and advancing personalized, systems-based care.  Today, as President of Calroy Health Sciences, Andie leads innovation in cardiovascular and joint health.  Her mission is to raise awareness of the vascular system's foundational role - not only in disease prevention, but also in longevity, brain health, and performance. She believes we have the tools to change the trajectory of our healthspan and empowers people to take control by asking the right questions.  Andie brings a relatable, purpose-driven perspective on living longer, better, and embracing midlife as a powerful opportunity for health transformation.  In this episode: Why traditional health measures do not always reveal hidden cardiovascular risks The value of vascular age testing to uncover silent inflammation and plaque in arteries How lifestyle and stress factors can silently impact heart health over time. How perimenopause and hormonal changes dramatically increase cardiovascular risk in women Why cardiovascular disease is often overlooked until it's too late What advanced diagnostics can reveal beyond a standard blood panel How emerging knowledge about the endothelial glycocalyx is reshaping our understanding of vascular health The benefits of supplements, meditation, stress management, and improving your diet to reverse arterial aging Links and Resources: ⁠⁠Your Longevity Blueprint Omega 3s – 60 capsules ⁠https://yourlongevityblueprint.com/product/coq10-100-mg/ Guest Social Media Links: Calroy Health Sciences on Instagram Calroy Health Sciences on Facebook Relative Links for This Show: Use this link for 10% off (And a Free Bag of Oral Microbiome Gum) Follow Your Longevity Blueprint  On Instagram| Facebook| Twitter| YouTube | LinkedIn Get your copy of the Your Longevity Blueprint book and claim your bonuses here Find Dr. Stephanie Gray and Your Longevity Blueprint online   Follow Dr. Stephanie Gray  On Facebook| Instagram| Youtube | Twitter | LinkedIn Integrative Health and Hormone Clinic Podcast production by Team Podcast
