Perhaps we learn we're stronger than we ever thought we were, or that the many hours we spend alone on the trails are the best hours of our lives. But no matter how long we've been runners there are certain truths that we learn. Some of them we learn quickly and some we learn over time. This week, I review some truths that I've talked about in earlier shows and some are new. Many of these are my opinions that are from my experiences. Yours may be different and that's amazing.

Send us a textThe pursuit of optimal health as we age requires more than just conventional medicine—it demands a deeper understanding of how our hormones, genetics, and metabolism interact. In this continuation of the conversation with Dr. Elena Christofides, Host Dr. Holly Thacker goes beyond the surface of women's health concerns to explore groundbreaking approaches that can literally change how we age.Dr. Christofides reveals why comprehensive blood testing should include genetic markers that most physicians overlook. From MTHFR mutations affecting B vitamin metabolism to hemochromatosis genes common in those with Northern European ancestry, these hidden factors can dramatically impact metabolic health. Her revolutionary approach includes growth hormone screening for everyone—not just elite athletes—because deficiencies following head trauma (including domestic violence) affect one in five people and accelerate aging processes.Throughout the conversation, Dr. Christofides and Dr. Thacker emphasize that what many dismiss as "normal aging" is often addressable with personalized medical approaches.For anyone frustrated by unexplained weight gain, fatigue, poor sleep quality, or declining physical performance despite "normal" lab work, this episode offers hope and actionable insights.To learn more about Dr. Elena Christofides, visit endocrinology-associates.com.Fit, Healthy & Happy Podcast Welcome to the Fit, Healthy and Happy Podcast hosted by Josh and Kyle from Colossus...Listen on: Apple Podcasts SpotifySupport the show
