In this episode of Figuring It Out, I sit down with Ronit Menashe — co-founder of WeNatal, former and functional medicine advocate — for an honest and empowering conversation about fertility, egg quality, and preconception health. Ronit opens up about her own heartbreaking experience: a missed miscarriage at 12 weeks, a doctor who told her it was "just her age," and the moment she decided to stop listening to the conventional narrative and start doing the research herself. What she found changed everything — and ultimately led to her conceiving naturally at 42, without IVF, and later co-founding WeNatal, a science-backed prenatal supplement line that has now supported over 30,000 families.   In this episode, we cover: •What "trimester zero" is and why it may be the most important phase of your fertility journey •The truth about egg quality vs. egg quantity — and what you can actually control •Why male fertility is half the equation and almost always overlooked •The fertility blockers hiding in your home (and how to remove them without overhauling your life) •Why the $20 billion fertility industry may not be incentivized to tell you about diet and lifestyle •How to evaluate prenatal supplements — what to look for, what to avoid, and why not all prenatals are created equal •The role of choline, CoQ10, methyl folate, and mitochondrial health in egg quality •How to get your partner on board with preconception preparation •The mindset shift that helped Ronit take three months off from trying — and why it worked Whether you are actively trying to conceive, recovering from a loss, navigating IVF, or simply want to understand your reproductive health more deeply, I know this conversation will leave you feeling informed, empowered, and far less alone.   Resources mentioned: •WeNatal prenatal supplements: wenatal.com •Exclusive offer for Figuring It Out listeners — free magnesium with any subscription: wenatal.com/figuringitout •Dr. Natalie Crawford's book: The Fertility Formula •EWG (Environmental Working Group) product database: ewg.org   Connect with Ronit: @we_natal Ronit's Instagram WeNatal's Website   Connect with me:  Connect with me on Instagram  ShopMy - What I'm Loving Lately   Email: Hailey@hailey-miller.com

Weight gain isn't a willpower problem… It's a communication problem. In this episode, we explore LEAN, the peptide that helps the body re-establish normal metabolic signaling between the gut, brain, and fat cells. You'll learn how this yeast-derived peptide extends your own GLP-1 activity, balances appetite hormones, and supports fat oxidation using citrus polyphenols, L-carnitine, and CoQ10, all without stimulants or artificial suppression. We'll cover how LEAN works, what to expect in the first few weeks and months, and why pairing it with FIT helps preserve muscle and keep metabolism strong.   Hosted by Leanne Vogel.   Coaching with Leanne: https://www.healthfulpursuit.com/coaching    Bioactive Peptides: https://www.healthfulpursuit.com/make     Quiz - your personalized peptide stack: https://www.healthfulpursuit.com/quiz    Enjoy today's show.

If you want to get leaner and live longer check out https://milliondollarbodylabs.com Is your healthy routine feeding hidden infections that cause brain fog and bloating? Why do most probiotics fail to fix a damaged gut? I talk with Dr. Michael Biamonte about Candida and dysbiosis. He explains how he used engineering to reverse engineer illness. We discuss how Candida mutates to survive and why rotating herbs every four days stops the cycle. He shares why iron and vitamin D feed infections. We cover the link between gut issues and autoimmune conditions. He details how biocybernetics identifies imbalances. He highlights the need to clear toxins before adding probiotics. We explore how to find the cause of health issues instead of covering symptoms with medications. Key Takeaways Rotate different antifungal herbs every four days to prevent Candida from mutating and becoming drug-resistant. Antifungals create oxidative stress, so taking antioxidants like Vitamin A or CoQ10 during treatment can stop them from working. Lower the Candida load before taking probiotics because the fungus repels bacteria through polarity. Candida needs iron and Vitamin D to survive, so taking these supplements during an active infection may feed the fungus. Dysbiosis blocks detoxification pathways, making it difficult for cleanses to work until the biome is corrected. Leaky gut syndrome allows toxins and proteins to enter the bloodstream, which triggers most autoimmune conditions. Biocybernetics uses blood and urine tests to analyze physiological self-regulation and find imbalances before they become diseases. Symptoms like brain fog and bloating often follow a specific progression from digestion issues to memory loss and rashes. "You don't have a drug deficiency"; medications typically mask symptoms rather than fixing the underlying imbalance.

Angela talks to Ari Whitten, the founder of The Energy Blueprint and an expert in mitochondrial health about his comprehensive approach to overcoming fatigue and optimising energy levels by addressing the cellular engines of the body—the mitochondria.  Ari explains how modern lifestyle factors, such as poor light exposure, chronic stress, and nutritional deficiencies, signal the mitochondria to enter a defence mode rather than an energy-producing mode WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: The Cell Danger Response (CDR): Mitochondria have a dual role; they are not just energy producers but also environmental sensors that shift into a defensive state when they perceive threats Circadian Rhythm and Light: Proper exposure to natural light in the morning and minimising artificial blue light at night is critical for regulating the mitochondrial clock and ensuring deep, restorative sleep. Hormetic Stress: Introducing controlled stressors—such as high-intensity exercise, cold exposure, or heat—can actually strengthen mitochondria and increase their capacity to produce energy The Importance of Nutrient Density: Specific nutrients, including CoQ10, magnesium, and polyphenols, are essential "fuel" for the electron transport chain TIMESTAMPS [00:04:15] The "Energy Gap" [00:18:30] Mitochondria as Sensors [00:32:45] The Power of Red Light Therapy [00:52:10] Building Metabolic Flexibility VALUABLE RESOURCES ⁠Join The High Performance Health Community⁠ ⁠Click here⁠ for discounts on all the products I personally use and recommend A BIG thank you to our sponsors who make the show possible The Ultimate Guide to Red Light Therapy  Find out your biological age and how your daily habits are influencing it with DNA, bloodwork and microbiome testing with a Stride One membership - visit https://www.getstride.com/angela/ for 10% off.

Dr. Natalie Crawford, board-certified OB-GYN and REI, answers your fertility questions. 1. I'm wondering how alcohol affects male and female fertility, and whether cutting back or abstaining can improve our chances with IVF or natural conception. 2. My wife has low estrogen, and we're trying to conceive. What should we know before her upcoming doctor's appointment so we can ask better questions? 3. We've been trying for 3 years with Clomid and no success. Our doctor suggested a sperm analysis, but we only have access to a CVS kit — are those reliable? 4. I take CoQ10 while trying to conceive — should I take it all month, and do I stop during the two-week wait since it's not recommended in pregnancy? 5. My partner has low motility. How often should we have sex during my fertile window — and am I ‘using up' good sperm if we start too early? We conceived once but lost the baby, and I'm struggling to feel confident.

If you have Endometriosis and are trying to fall pregnant — either naturally or with the help of IVF or IUI — it's normal to feel overwhelmed by conflicting supplement advice. In this episode, I break down the five key supplements that can support fertility in women with Endometriosis, and explain why they matter in the context of inflammation, oxidative stress, egg quality, and gut health. You'll learn how folate, CoQ10, vitamin C, N-acetyl cysteine (NAC), and vitamin E work to support healthy egg development, reduce inflammatory load, and protect fertility — and why women with Endometriosis often have higher needs for these nutrients. I also share a bonus supplement for those preparing for IVF, R-alpha lipoic acid, and explain how it can help support egg quality and ovarian function during assisted reproductive cycles. This episode is practical, evidence-based, and designed to help you feel more confident about which supplements may be worth considering — and which ones require a more personalised approach. 

My Current Over-40 Fat Loss Routine (What's Changed & Why It Works)Click On My Website Below To Schedule A Free 15 Min Zoom Call:www.Over40FitnessHacks.comOver 40 Fitness Hacks SKOOL Group!Get Your Whoop4.0 Here!In this solo episode, Brad Williams of Over 40 Fitness Hacks shares an updated snapshot of his current routine, covering workouts, supplements, nutrition, and lifestyle strategies he's using to push toward his leanest physique yet while protecting his joints and long-term health.Brad explains why he's slowing down podcast publishing—now focusing on one solo episode and one guest per month—and why he's prioritizing deeper engagement inside his free SKOOL community. After hundreds of interviews, he's shifting from repeating the same conversations to showing real-time experimentation and progress.At 184 pounds and aiming for 180, Brad walks through what it actually takes to approach single-digit body fat over 40, emphasizing that it's challenging, not necessarily “healthy,” and requires extreme consistency. His goal is transparency—showing his community both the results and the struggle.Morning Routine & Mobility Each day starts with hot showers, cat-cow stretching, nerve flossing, and light mobility work—non-negotiables after multiple L5-S1 microdiscectomies. These short daily practices help keep his spine healthy and pain-free.Supplements & Tracking Rather than guessing, Brad uses the Cronometer app to track micronutrients and identify deficiencies. His supplement stack adjusts based on real data and includes essentials like magnesium, zinc, omega-3s, vitamin D3 + K2, calcium, vitamin C, CoQ10, turmeric, and targeted minerals—taken strategically throughout the day to avoid absorption conflicts. He emphasizes nutrient balance (omega-3 to omega-6, zinc to copper, sodium to potassium, calcium to oxalates) over megadosing.Training SplitMonday / Wednesday / Friday: 30-minute full-body gym workouts using a time-under-tension approach. Brad rotates chest, back, and legs with lighter weights, slower tempos, and longer sets to reduce joint stress while still building muscle.Tuesday / Thursday: Short (10–15 min) blood flow restriction (BFR) workouts at home, focusing on arms and legs with very light weights—or physical therapy if recovery feels off.Core Work: Planks, side planks, and controlled leg raises, with a warning about ab rollers after suffering an inguinal hernia.Cardio & Daily Movement: Daily 30-minute walks (often with a weighted vest), plus weekly high-intensity rebounder sprint sessions for mitochondrial health and calorie burn—his safer alternative to outdoor sprinting post-back surgery.Calorie Tracking & Fat Loss Brad relies on his WHOOP data—not generic calculators—to manage calorie intake day by day. He adjusts food intake based on actual burn, especially when pushing fat loss. For him, precision matters more as body fat drops.Nutrition Philosophy The biggest shift over 40: insulin awareness. Brad explains how frequent eating kills fat-burning and why he now favors two meals per day, eaten within short windows, prioritizing protein and fats first, carbs last. This approach improves insulin response, appetite control, and fat loss. On weekends, he still tracks calories while allowing flexibility with food and alcohol—using fiber strategically to slow absorption.If you're interested in online personal training or being a guest on my podcast, "Over 40 Fitness Hacks," you can reach me at brad@over40fitnesshacks.com or visit my website at:www.Over40FitnessHacks.comAdditionally, check out my Yelp reviews for my local business, Evolve Gym in Huntington Beach, at https://bit.ly/3GCKRzV

Beat Heart Disease Before It Starts — Insights from Dr. Howard Elkin with Dr. Ben Weitz. Dr. Elkin's website is Heartwise.com.  His main office is in Whittier, California and he has a concierge practice in Santa Monica, California and his office number is 562-945-3753. What You'll Hear In This Episode: 02:40    A Functional Medicine approach looks at why the body would lay down plaque as a rational response to coat the artery wall against inflammation or oxidation or glycation reactions. 06:08    I asked Dr. Elkin what his view is on cholesterol and he mentioned that half of patients who have heart attacks have normal cholesterol 08:09    Dr. Elkin discusses the benefits of the Boston Heart Lab and other advanced lipid profiles for better assessing true CVD risk 09:36    Howard explains how small, dense particles are more likely to be oxidized and incorporated into arterial plaques 10:50     I explained how larger HDL particles perform reverse cholesterol transport to remove potentially harmful LDL particles from the blood stream 11:02     I asked how Dr. Elkin treats patients who have small, dense LDL particles and he explained that he gets his patients to change their lifestyle and he uses certain nutritional supplements such as niacin before he puts them on medications.   13:10     I asked Howard what are some of the most important dietary factors to change to lower cardiovascular risk in such a patient?  He said it's not about cutting our eggs and saturated fat, like we used to think.  Howard's way of thinking is that sugar not fat is the main villian, since it is pro-inflammatory. 16:57    I asked Dr. Elkin about one of his recent blog articles where he wrote about the new PCSK-9 inhibitor medications for cholesterol. Dr. Elkin explained these may be effective, but they showed that they could bring LDL cholesterol levels down to 36 and this is actually not a good thing, since you need cholesterol for hormones, vitamin D production, and brain function.   Also, these drugs cost $14,000 per year. 20:30   Howard explained that when he does places patients on statins, he always puts them on CoQ10 to prevent muscle problems. He usually uses 100-200 mg to start with.  With patients who have heart failure he will use very high dosages, along with magnesium, L-Carnitine, and D-Ribose. 24:22   Dr. Elkin discusses what nutritional supplements he will use to raise HDL levels: 2 tablespoons daily of Extra Virgin Olive oil,  coconut oil, low carb diet, exercise, weight reduction, and niacin. 27:52    I asked Howard how to lower Lp(a). He said that this fragment of LDL is extremely atherogenic and is highly likely to get oxidized. Niacin, estrogen, and fish oil can help. I mentioned that I also found that berberine and tocotrienols were also helpful. 30:30   We discussed what to do about patients with elevated CRP (indicative of inflammation). Dr. Elkin mentioned that this test should be done routinely on all patients, but it is often not measured.  There is a link between obesity and CRP and also between oral cavity problems and sinusitis and even poor sleep. He likes fish oil, turmeric, ginger, and boswellia to reduce inflammation.

Most women think brain fog in perimenopause is inevitable. It isn't. In this episode, I explain what's really going on: your brain isn't broken, it's running on empty; and that's a solvable biology problem, not a willpower problem. I break down what happens as estrogen and progesterone fluctuate, how that impacts brain energy, and why symptoms like forgetfulness, poor focus, and “slow-motion thinking” can show up even when you're doing everything right. Then I share four science-backed strategies to rebuild a sharper, more resilient brain—covering nutrition, training for cognitive performance, regulating your mental “gears,” and a practical supplement toolkit to amplify the foundations WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: How blood sugar crashes sabotage cognition (and the breakfast fix) Why protein & healthy fats matter for focus in perimenopause The role of omega-3s (EPA/DHA) in neuroinflammation and clarity Why higher-intensity exercise can improve focus via lactate → BDNF How to use training strategically before deep work or high-stakes meetings The 3 Gears framework for focus, creativity, and stress regulation Why micro-breaks between meetings improve engagement and reduce stress buildup The supplement stack discussed (omega-3s, magnesium forms, ubiquinol/CoQ10, B vitamins) How to start with one change and build momentum without overwhelm TIMESTAMPS 00:00 Brain Fog in Perimenopause: What's Really Going On 02:37 Strategy 1: High-Quality Nutrition 05:25 Strategy 2: Exercise for Focus (Lactate, BDNF & Brain Energy) 08:59 Strategy 3: 3 Gears Framework for Focus & Stress 13:05 Strategy 4: The Supplement Toolkit (What Actually Helps) 17:28 How to Reclaim Your Focus & Energy VALUABLE RESOURCES ⁠Join The High Performance Health Community⁠ ⁠Click here⁠ for discounts on all the products I personally use and recommend • Longevity Supplement Masterclass – https://academy.angelafosterperformance.com/longevity-masterclass-27 • Omega-3 Episode featuring Dr. Bill Harris – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J42kJPyHPoA A BIG thank you to our sponsors who make the show possible Get 10% off MitoQ NAD+ - www.mitoq.com with code ANGELA Get 35% off Timeline Mitopure by visiting this link while the offer lasts - https://www.timeline.com/promotions/angela35 ABOUT THE HOST Angela Foster is an award winning Nutritionist, Health & Performance Coach, Speaker and Host of the High Performance Health podcast.

Most brain decline, mood instability, and impulsive behavior start with a breakdown in how the brain's immune cells produce and use energy. This episode shows how mitochondrial health inside microglia influences cognition, emotion, and long-term brain resilience, and how everyday inputs quietly push those systems toward damage or repair. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey is joined by Dr. David Perlmutter, a board-certified neurologist and six-time New York Times bestselling author whose work focuses on the intersection of neurology, nutrition, metabolism, and brain health. A Fellow of the American College of Nutrition and member of the Editorial Board of the Journal of Alzheimer's Disease, Dr. Perlmutter brings decades of clinical and research experience to this conversation on how inflammation and mitochondrial function shape the brain across the lifespan. Together, they explore how microglial cells shift their behavior based on metabolic conditions, and how those shifts influence neurodegeneration, emotional regulation, impulse control, and cognitive performance. The discussion covers real-world inputs that shape these systems, including sleep optimization, fasting, ketosis, glucose regulation, gut signaling, environmental toxins, and tools referenced in the episode such as red and infrared light, 40 Hz light and sound, hyperbaric oxygen, lithium, nicotine, supplements, nootropics, GLP-1 agonists, and dietary approaches like carnivore and ketosis. The conversation connects brain biology to lived experience, showing how metabolism influences behavior, decision making, and long-term human performance through a Smarter Not Harder lens. You'll Learn: • How microglia shift between supportive and destructive states and why metabolism drives that change • How mitochondrial function inside immune cells influences inflammation and brain resilience • How inflammation affects the prefrontal cortex, impulse control, and reward-driven behavior • What the episode says about GLP-1 agonists and behavior changes like reduced cravings and gambling • How gut-derived signaling and short-chain fatty acid balance (butyrate vs propionate) relates to brain function • How tools like red and infrared light, hyperbaric oxygen, and 40 Hz light and sound connect to microglia • The lifestyle levers discussed in the episode: sleep optimization, fasting, ketosis, glucose control, and toxin reduction • The compounds mentioned, including lithium, nicotine, urolithin A, CoQ10, rosmarinic acid, and dihydromyricetin Dave Asprey is a four time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking. With over 1,000 interviews and 1 million monthly listeners, The Human Upgrade is the top podcast for people who want to take control of their biology, extend their longevity, and optimize every system in the body and mind.

Vision declines quietly, long before most of us notice it. We pull back the curtain on two daily supplements—resveratrol and ubiquinol—that work at the cellular level to protect the retina, optic nerve, and lens while supporting heart health and longevity. Drawing on decades of integrative eye care, we explain how resveratrol's antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and neuroprotective properties help in glaucoma, cataracts, and macular degeneration, and why ubiquinol, the active form of CoQ10, is a powerhouse for mitochondrial energy and cellular resilience.You'll hear why statins can lower CoQ10 levels and how switching to ubiquinol can better support energy-demanding tissues like the eye. We break down food sources you can add today—dark grapes, berries, dark chocolate for resveratrol; salmon, sardines, organ meats, and pistachios for ubiquinol—along with practical tips for choosing high-quality supplements and pairing them with meals to improve absorption. The goal is simple: reduce oxidative stress, fuel mitochondria, and give your eyes the steady support they need to age well.If you're managing glaucoma or macular degeneration, or you're focused on prevention, these strategies help stack the odds in your favor. We tie research insights to everyday choices, from diet upgrades to smart supplementation, so you can build a sustainable plan for long-term eye health. Empower yourself with knowledge and take proactive steps to safeguard your vision.

Today, we're talking about something your body relies on every single day—yet most people have never heard of it. It's called glutathione, often referred to as the master antioxidant.  You may also see it labeled as L-glutathione or GSH, but for this episode, we'll simply call it glutathione as we break down what it is, why it's so important, and how it helps protect your cells and support overall health.

Today we're talking about glucose — what it is, why your body absolutely needs it, and how the way glucose enters your bloodstream affects your energy, weight, hormones, inflammation, and long-term health. Glucose often gets a bad reputation, but the truth is much more nuanced. Glucose itself isn't the problem. In fact, without it, you couldn't survive. What really matters is how fast glucose enters your bloodstream and how often that happens.

Is cholesterol really the cause of heart disease, or is something deeper at play? Approximately 800,000 people in the US have heart attacks annually, and heart disease remains one of the leading causes of death in the United States. Many people still misunderstand what truly drives cardiovascular risk. In this episode, Dr. Hotze explains why heart disease is not simply a cholesterol problem and why many individuals suffer heart attacks despite having normal or even low cholesterol levels. He breaks down the real contributors to heart disease, including chronic inflammation, bacterial exposure, toxic metals, and impaired cellular energy production.   Dr. Hotze discusses how inflammation can originate from unexpected sources, such as oral bacteria entering the bloodstream, and how toxic metals like mercury, lead, and aluminum may contribute to cardiovascular damage over time. He also emphasizes the heart's extraordinary energy demands, explaining why mitochondrial health and nutrients like CoQ10 are essential for proper heart function. Without adequate cellular energy production, the heart cannot perform the continuous work required to sustain life.   This episode highlights practical, preventive strategies for naturally protecting heart health, including reducing inflammation, supporting mitochondrial function, and incorporating healthy fats such as omega-3 fatty acids. Dr. Hotze emphasizes that true cardiovascular wellness stems from addressing the root causes rather than relying solely on conventional markers or medications.   Watch now and subscribe to our podcasts at www.HotzePodcast.com.   To receive a FREE copy of Dr. Hotze's best-selling book, Hormones, Health, and Happiness, call 281-698-8698 and mention this podcast.

Today, we're diving into an exciting development in obesity treatment—oral semaglutide.  Last week, the FDA approved Novo Nordisk's Wegovy pill as the first and only oral GLP-1 for weight loss in adults. This approval is based on results from the OASIS-4 phase 3 clinical trial showing that a once-daily oral version of semaglutide can deliver nearly the same weight loss results as the injectable form.  So, what does that really mean for patients and treatment options? Let's break it down.

Is Ubiquinol the Missing Nutrient for Lifelong Heart Health?In this eye-opening episode of Wellness by Designs, Dr Ross Walker, a renowned cardiologist with 25 years dedicated to preventative medicine, challenges the conventional approach to heart disease, statins and cholesterol management. Central to the discussion is ubiquinol, the active form of CoQ10, essential for mitochondrial energy production and a powerful antioxidant. Dr Walker explains how our natural production of ubiquinol begins declining around age 30 and drops sharply by 50, contributing to fatigue and reduced cardiovascular resilience.Dr Walker explores why many patients with “normal” cholesterol still develop significant coronary artery disease, arguing that coronary calcium scoring offers a far superior risk assessment tool than standard cholesterol tests. Dr Walker also addresses statin-associated muscle symptoms, recommending 150 mg of ubiquinol daily for statin users, citing research showing a 50% reduction in muscle problems, and up to 300 mg for those with heart failure to support cardiac function and endothelial health.From mitochondrial health to protection against oxidative stress, this episode highlights why ubiquinol may be a cornerstone in maintaining cardiovascular wellness and why a more personalised, evidence-based approach is needed to truly prevent heart disease.Connect with Dr Walker: Home - Dr Ross Walker Shownotes and references are available on the Designs for Health website Register as a Designs for Health Practitioner and discover quality practitioner- only supplements at www.designsforhealth.com.au Follow us on SocialsInstagram: DesignsforhealthausFacebook: Designsforhealthaus DISCLAIMER: The Information provided in the Wellness by Designs podcast is for educational purposes only; the information presented is not intended to be used as medical advice; please seek the advice of a qualified healthcare professional if what you have heard here today raises questions or concerns relating to your healthShownotes and references are available on the Designs for Health websiteRegister as a Designs for Health Practitioner and discover quality practitioner- only supplements at www.designsforhealth.com.au Follow us on Socials Instagram: Designsforhealthaus Facebook: Designsforhealthaus DISCLAIMER: The Information provided in the Wellness by Designs podcast is for educational purposes only; the information presented is not intended to be used as medical advice; please seek the advice of a qualified healthcare professional if what you have heard here today raises questions or concerns relating to your health

Today we're talking about sleep — something that affects every system in the body, yet is often overlooked until it becomes a problem. Not just how many hours you're in bed, but how deeply you sleep, how well your body restores overnight, and whether you actually wake up feeling rested.  We're also going to talk about a peptide that's been getting more attention in the wellness space for sleep support: DSIP, or Delta Sleep–Inducing Peptide.

Thanks for listening to The Peptide Podcast.  Today, we're diving into the combined power of high-dose NAD+ and GHK-Cu. I'm genuinely excited about the technology behind a product called the Push Patch. It uses iontophoresis— which is a completely non-invasive technology that uses gentle electrical currents to push these ingredients deep into the skin and directly into circulation. But really, this episode isn't about the product itself—it's about what's inside it and how it's delivered.

I'm so excited to share today's Ask The Egg Whisperer. This week, I answered your thoughtful questions about fertility challenges, treatment options, and the science behind conditions like endometriosis. We talked about whether endometriosis can be passed from mother to daughter, how lifestyle changes and supplements may affect egg quality, and what options are available if you've had an abnormal HSG or blocked fallopian tube. My goal is always to give you clear, compassionate answers while helping you feel more empowered on your fertility journey. In addition, I dove into questions around protocols for Omnitrope and low-stimulation cycles, the potential role of supplements like CoQ10 and inositol, and whether HGH is safe for patients with certain genetic risks. I also shared my perspective on fertility at age 42, including what steps you can take to make the most of your options. These conversations remind me why I love connecting with you all: your questions not only help guide our discussions but also show how much strength, resilience, and curiosity you bring to this process. Here are a few of the questions I answered:

What are your thoughts on the benefits of magnesium threonate?Is creatine helpful in building bone strength in osteoporosis?What are your thoughts on the REMS ultrasound to diagnose bone mineral density status?What should I do about my PSA, which appears to be trending upward?  Are my diabetes meds causing erectile dysfunction?Does maltodextrin spike blood glucose tremendously?

Antioxidants and resistance training for treatment of sarcopeniaAnabolic resistance with advancing ageAre there any holistic medicine approaches to treating Lewy Body Syndrome?Is canned fish like sardines safe to eat?

On this episode of the Fit Mother Project Podcast, Episode 176, Dr. Anthony sits down with Fit Mother member Selene Connolly, a 59-year-old mom, “Lolly” (grandma), wife of 37 years, and director of engineering who completely rebuilt her health, hope, and strength in her late 50s. After a devastating foot injury, the stress of COVID, nightly wine, and feeling too weak to even carry a laundry basket or open a jar, Selene had quietly lost faith that she could ever really come back. In this powerful conversation, you'll hear how Selene lost about 40 pounds in about five months and has maintained that loss for over a year, how she moved from feeling like a “fraud” inside the program to becoming a true leader in the Fit Mother community, and how she helped create in-person sisterhood meetups and hiking trips around the country. You'll also hear her simple but profound routines: early-morning mindset work, short but consistent workouts, grounding and breath breaks during a demanding workday, and evenings spent learning new things instead of zoning out in front of the TV. Selene and Dr. Anthony dive into facing limiting beliefs, changing the inner voice, using labs and body composition data to truly “own” your health, and why encouragement is literally “breathing courage into others.” If you're a busy woman over 40 who's ever felt stuck, alone, or like you “don't belong” in fitness spaces, Selene's story will show you how small daily choices, community, and authenticity can completely change the trajectory of your life.

Vitamin C, copper peptides, and glutathione behave very differently once you understand how skin absorbs nutrients at the cellular level. This episode shows you how to target collagen production, strengthen mitochondria, improve detox capacity, and upgrade skin density with pharmaceutical grade delivery systems that outperform conventional skincare. You learn why most topical antioxidants never reach their intended targets, how intracellular copper changes longevity pathways, why glutathione affects everything from pigmentation to detox, and how to build a streamlined routine that matches the way high level biohackers actually age. These strategies can help you improve collagen, elasticity, hair density, mitochondrial function, and whole body performance with fewer steps and far more impact. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey talks with Dr. Nayan Patel, a pharmacist, wellness expert, and industry leader who has worked with physicians since 1999 to design custom medications and patient specific protocols. He has been the pharmacist of choice for celebrities, CEOs, and medical professionals seeking precision level formulations. Dr. Patel is the author of The Glutathione Revolution, which summarizes more than a decade of clinical research on glutathione. His team created a patented transdermal technology that delivers glutathione systemically through the skin, and he has since expanded this work to include advanced peptides and new delivery systems that improve absorption far beyond standard topical products. He also developed the Auro GSH Antioxidant Delivery System, a skincare line that uses pharmaceutical grade ingredients at potent concentrations to achieve deeper penetration and more reliable biological effects. Together they break down why vitamin C acts as a stimulant that drives collagen rather than a classic antioxidant, how GHK copper peptide thickens aging skin, and why retinoids often speed up cell turnover at the cost of long term resilience. Dr. Patel explains the difference between cosmetic grade and injectable grade peptides, why purity matters when a delivery system pushes molecules deep into the skin, and how zinc overuse has created widespread copper deficiency that affects hair, metabolism, and mitochondrial health. Dave shares his own protocols for using GHK, glutathione, and vitamin C, along with practical dosing strategies that create visible changes in skin density within four to six weeks. You will learn: • How vitamin C stimulates collagen and why glutathione regenerates oxidized antioxidants • How GHK copper peptide improves elasticity, firmness, and structural integrity • Why purity, molecular size, and delivery tech determine whether peptides actually reach target tissues • How topical copper supports intracellular stores and influences hair health and metabolism • Why zinc overload causes silent copper deficiency and what it means for longevity • How targeted glutathione improves detox, pigmentation, and oxidative stress • The fastest protocol for visible skin density improvements and how long results take to show • How to combine these tools with lasers and skin procedures for stronger outcomes Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking. With over 1,000 interviews and 1 million monthly listeners, The Human Upgrade brings you the knowledge to take control of your biology, extend your longevity, and optimize every system in your body and mind. Each episode delivers cutting-edge insights in health, performance, neuroscience, supplements, nutrition, biohacking, emotional intelligence, and conscious living. New episodes are released every Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and Sunday (BONUS). Dave asks the questions no one else will and gives you real tools to become stronger, smarter, and more resilient.

The ALL ME® Podcast Do You Need URO-A and CoQ-10 In Your Life? – Dr. Emily Werner In this episode of the ALL ME Podcast, Don Hooton speaks with Dr. Emily Werner, a sports dietitian for the Philadelphia 76ers. They discuss Dr. Werner's journey into sports nutrition, her experiences working with professional athletes, and the importance of building relationships with players to effectively communicate nutritional advice. The conversation also covers the role of nutrition in enhancing athletic performance, the collaboration with external nutrition professionals, and the significance of specific nutrients like Urolithin A in supporting athletes' health and performance. In this conversation, Dr. Emily Werner discusses the significance of gut health, the role of Urolithin A and CoQ10 as supplements, and the importance of dietary choices in maintaining optimal health. She emphasizes the need for targeted supplementation due to the decline in gut microbiome diversity and the natural production of CoQ10 with age. The discussion also highlights the role of dietitians in assessing nutritional deficiencies through blood work, particularly in athletes, and the evolving landscape of dietary supplements. To Purchase urolithin A in supplement form, Emily recommends purchasing from www.timeline.com Takeaways Dr. Werner's journey into sports nutrition began with a love for anatomy and physiology. Building relationships with athletes is crucial for effective nutrition counseling. Nutrition plays a vital role in the performance and longevity of athletes. Urolithin A is a metabolite that supports mitochondrial health. Athletes often have their own chefs or nutritionists, complicating team dynamics. Effective communication with external nutrition professionals is essential. Traveling with the team allows for better food coordination and athlete support. Nutrition education is important for young athletes to enhance their performance. The importance of nutrition has grown in professional sports over the years. Athletes benefit from a diet rich in fruits, nuts, and other nutrient-dense foods. Not everyone has the right gut microbiome for nutrient conversion. Urolithin A is a supplement that addresses bioavailability issues. Foundational supplements like Urolithin A can benefit everyone. CoQ10 is essential for energy production in mitochondria. CoQ10 helps clear out reactive oxygen species in the body. Urolithin A and CoQ10 can work synergistically for health. Dietary sources of CoQ10 include meat and fish. Statins can deplete natural CoQ10 levels in the body. Blood work can reveal nutritional deficiencies in athletes. Dietitians play a crucial role in nutritional health and prevention.

0:00 Introduction: The best foods for heart health 0:20 What is heart-healthy food?1:49 10 best foods for the heart 4:43 Egg yolk for heart health10:22 Salt and a heart-healthy diet Mainstream media may have red-lined some of these foods, but they're actually the best foods you can eat for heart health!A heart-healthy diet is often characterized as being low in saturated fat, cholesterol, and sodium, and high in fiber. This isn't the best diet for heart health! For a healthy heart, prioritize nutrient-dense foods that contain the active form of vitamin A, heme iron, vitamin B12, omega-3 fatty acids, zinc, and high-quality complete protein.Here are the top 10 superfoods for your heart!1. Red meatI'm sure you're surprised to see this on the list! Grass-fed red meat contains high-quality amino acids that support the mitochondria in the heart. It's also a potent source of CoQ10, stearic acid, carnitine, carnosine, zinc, and vitamin B12. 2. Butter Grass-fed butter is very healthy for your heart! It's loaded with vitamin K2, which helps remove calcium from the arteries. It also contains butyrate, CLA, the active form of vitamin A, and stearic acid.3. Egg yolkEgg yolks are rich in choline, which helps prevent a fatty liver. Liver fat can spill over into the heart in the form of epicardial fat. Egg yolks also contain vitamin K2 and carotenoids. 4. CheeseRaw, aged cheese is rich in vitamin K2 and contains natural ACE inhibitors, which help support healthy blood pressure.5. Shellfish Oysters, mussels, and clams are excellent sources of omega-3 fatty acids and various trace minerals, including zinc, copper, iron, and magnesium.6. Organ meatsGrass-fed, grass-finished liver and other organ meats contain omega-3s, CoQ10, vitamin A, B12, and trace minerals like copper. You can also consume cod liver for the same benefits! 7. Fermented foodsFoods such as sauerkraut, kimchi, kefir, and natto are rich in vitamin K2. Natto contains nattokinase, which helps support healthy blood pressure.8. Sea salt Sea salt contains 80 to 90 different minerals. Low sodium levels can lead to high blood pressure and increased cortisol levels.9. Fatty fish Wild-caught salmon, sardines, anchovies, and mackerel are potent sources of omega-3 fatty acids.10. Collagen Bone broth and the skin of chicken and fish are excellent sources of collagen. Ten percent of the collagen you consume is in the form of peptide chains, which can help the body repair collagenous structures in the body.Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 60, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.

This episod is brought to you by Cured Nutrition, Caldera Lab and Joi & Blokes. Dr. Jessica Shepherd—OB/GYN, clinical advisor for P-Volv, and author of Generation M—breaks down everything women need to know about perimenopause, menopause, and longevity. She explains why mindset is the foundation of midlife health, how declining estrogen affects every organ system, why only 8% of symptomatic women ever receive a diagnosis, and how common comorbidities rise 45% or more between ages 40–59. Dr. Shepherd shares science-backed strategies for navigating symptoms, improving metabolic and mitochondrial health, understanding the truth about hormone therapy after the flawed WHI study (which led to an 82% decline in prescriptions), and using exercise, protein, and muscle-building to protect cognition, heart health, and overall vitality. Whether you're a woman entering midlife—or a partner wanting to better support her—this conversation is a masterclass in women's health, empowerment, and aging well.
