Longevity expert Dr Florence Comite joins me to explain why testosterone, not estrogen, drives body composition and ageing in midlife women. Decline isn't inevitable - it's programmable. She unpacks why testosterone (which women carry in larger amounts than estrogen) drives muscle, visceral fat and brain fog from your 30s on, why only a third of us should fast, and the five biomarkers - fasting glucose, HbA1c, fasting insulin, cholesterol risk ratio and free testosterone - that predict where your healthspan is headed and how to change it. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN Why women carry more circulating testosterone than estrogen, and what its decline does to muscle, visceral fat and cognition from your 30s What "I don't feel like myself anymore" is actually signalling beneath the surface How cortisol quietly drives the anxiety-out-of-nowhere, the 2am wake-ups and the stubborn weight around your middle Why only a third of women should fast, and the 3-hour glucose test that tells you which third you're in What the five non-negotiable biomarkers reveal about where your healthspan is headed TIMESTAMPS 00:00 Intro: Why You Don't Feel Like Yourself After 35 - Peak Health, Testosterone Decline & the 30s Shift 05:52 - Perimenopause, Cortisol & Anxiety Out of Nowhere: Belly Fat, Sleep and the Caregiver Load 13:28 - Wearables, CGM & the Fasting Third/Third/Third: Measuring How Your Body Really Ages 20:11 - Who Should Actually Fast: The 3-Hour Glucose Test, Protein at Every Meal & the Oatmeal Trap 27:00 - Testosterone for Body Composition & Energy: UK Access, the 2024 Study & Protein for Muscle 33:46 - The 5 Biomarkers That Predict How You Age - Plus the 7 Patterns of Health Decline 39:37 - Decade by Decade for Women vs Men: Bone Loss, Osteoporosis, Andropause & Owning Your Healthspan VALUABLE RESOURCES - Invincible (Dr Comite's new book): https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/475986/invincible-by-comite-florence/9781529977066 - Dr Florence Comite's website: https://www.comitemd.com/ - Follow Dr Comite on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drflorencecomite/ AlgaeCal Plus*‡: Science-backed supplements designed to support healthy aging

This is the first of a number of episodes on the broad theme of “the technoprogressive opportunity”. That's the name of a conference taking place in London on the weekend of 19th and 20th September, co-organised by London Futurists and the IEET – the Institute for Ethics and Emerging Technologies. In these episodes, some of the speakers from that conference will be appearing as guests on this show.Our guest today is one of these speakers, Matteo Rossi MacDermant, a technophilosopher from the University of New Mexico. Matteo hosts a show called “Bread and Robots”, which covers subjects such as post-scarcity economics, universal basic income, the tech workers movement, and how technology can be steered toward collective abundance rather than corporate exploitation. Matteo is also the instructor for an online course called “An introduction to technoprogressive worldbuilding”.Selected follow-ups:The Technoprogressive Opportunity: Event in London, Sept 19-20The IEET - A Technoprogressive Think-TankMatteo Rossi MacDermant - LinkedInBread and Robots - Podcast and Substack by Matteo Rossi MacDermantAn Introduction to Technoprogressive Worldbuilding"Technoprogressive Declaration" - from Transvision 20142017 update to the Technoprogressive DeclarationUBI Guide - by Scott SantensUniversal Basic Capital - Windfall Trust"How a Land Value Tax Can Fund a UBI" - Scott SantensUniversal Basic Income and/or Alternatives - London Futurists conference held in 2018"Why the AI world is suddenly obsessed with a 160-year-old economics paradox" - Jevon's Paradox explained by Greg Rosalsky"The Longevity City: Cities as the Engines of Healthy Longevity" - essay by Matteo Rossi MacDermant"The London boroughs with the best and worst 'healthy life' expectancy""The Abolition of Aging" - book by David Wood (includes analysis of economic implications)Music: Spike Protein, by Koi Discovery, available under CC0 1.0 Public Domain DeclarationC-Suite PerspectivesElevate how you lead with insight from today's most influential executives.Listen on: Apple Podcasts Spotify

In today's episode of Trending Middle East, the US has carried out a second consecutive night of strikes on Iran, while President Donald Trump warns Tehran to accept a deal or face further military action. Iran responded with attacks on US military targets in the region, prompting security alerts in Bahrain and the temporary closure of Kuwaiti airspace. At the UN, Iran says no sustainable agreement can be reached through threats or the use of force, as diplomatic efforts come under increasing pressure. In Lebanon, local officials accuse Israeli forces of abducting two civilians from a southern border village, while a drone strike in Sidon raises concerns that the conflict is spreading further north. Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid, Vice President and Ruler of Dubai, has launched the Dubai Authority for Healthy Longevity, a new body aimed at positioning the emirate as a global centre for advanced health care, biotechnology and longevity research. And a leading UAE businessman announces a Dh1 million ($270,000) support fund for families affected by Sunday's fatal Dubai road crash, providing assistance to relatives of those killed and survivors recovering from their injuries. Trending Middle East is AI-assisted, using original reporting published in The National and curated and edited by humans.

Ein langes Leben wünschen sich viele, doch entscheidend ist, wie gesund, beweglich und erfüllt diese Jahre sind. In dieser Folge von Mission Gesundheit spreche ich mit Christoph Glaser über das Konzept der Healthy Longevity und darüber, wie wir unsere Gesundheit aktiv beeinflussen können. Wir sprechen über die Rolle von Bewegung und Schmerzfreiheit, über Ernährung als Grundlage für Prävention und Energie – und über Atem- und Mentaltechniken, die Stress reduzieren und die Regeneration fördern können. Außerdem geht es um wissenschaftliche Erkenntnisse zur Langlebigkeit, typische Umsetzungsbarrieren im Alltag und konkrete Strategien, um gesunde Routinen nachhaltig zu etablieren.

In this episode of Longevity by Design, host Dr. Gil Blander sits down with Dr. Andrea Maier, Professor in Medicine and Director of the NUS Academy for Healthy Longevity at the National University of Singapore's School of Medicine. They explore what the evidence shows on supplements, and why “test, then treat” beats guesswork.Andrea unpacks a review of over 5 million people: multivitamins may support memory and lower systolic blood pressure in some older or at-risk groups, but offer little for healthy adults. She also reports lab audits of Nicotinamide Mononucleotide (NMN) and urolithin A, in which many products fell short of the label claims.She then sorts buzzworthy compounds like alpha-ketoglutarate, spermidine, curcumin, and melatonin by mechanism, trial quality, and fit. Her rule stays simple: measure what you can, match the dose to the need, and track outcomes with walking speed, grip strength, steps, and wearable sleep data over time, not once. Guest-at-a-Glance
In dieser Folge spreche ich mit Tom Maus, CEO von Greeny Plus, und Jonas Hülskötter, Gründer von Urban Hive. Gemeinsam haben sie eine Technologie für den privaten Haushalt adaptiert, die bisher vor allem im großen Stil im Indoor-Farming genutzt wurde: die Aeroponik. Dabei wachsen Pflanzen ohne Erde; die Wurzeln hängen in der Luft und werden in Intervallen mit einer Nährstofflösung und Sauerstoff versorgt. Dieser "Ackerbau fürs Wohnzimmer" ermöglicht es, bis zu 95% Wasser gegenüber der herkömmlichen Landwirtschaft einzusparen und das Wachstum massiv zu beschleunigen. Besonders im Hinblick auf Healthy Longevity ist die maximale Frische entscheidend: Zwischen Ernte und Konsum vergehen oft nur wenige Sekunden, wodurch wertvolle Vitamine und sekundäre Pflanzenstoffe voll erhalten bleiben. Wir besprechen die Funktionsweise der 2-Meter-Pflanztürme, die Kosten, den Stromverbrauch und das enorme Potenzial von Microgreens für unsere Zellgesundheit. In dieser Folge sprechen wir u.a. über folgende Themen: Was genau ist Aeroponik und wie wachsen Pflanzen gesund ohne einen einzigen Krümel Erde? Warum spart dieses System bis zu 95% Wasser im Vergleich zur klassischen Landwirtschaft ein? Wie schafft es die Technik, dass Gemüse zu Hause deutlich schneller reift als im eigenen Garten? Kann ein zwei Meter hoher Pflanzturm wirklich eine komplette Familie gemüsebasiert ernähren? Wie imitieren spezielle Lichtschwerter das Sonnenlicht und was kostet das an Strom? Warum sind Indoor-Systeme quasi immun gegen Schädlinge, Schimmel und Pestizide? Wie hoch ist die Dichte an gesunden sekundären Pflanzenstoffen bei der Ernte direkt in der Küche? Was macht Microgreens zu echten Nährstoff-Bomben für unsere Zellverjüngung? Wie nachhaltig ist ein Pflanzturm aus dem 3D-Drucker, der aus Bio-Materialien besteht?

Die Relevanz einer präzisen Ernährung für Healthy Longevity steht im Zentrum unseres Dialogs, wobei Prof. Michalsen betont, dass die moderne Naturheilkunde die einzige wissenschaftlich fundierte Antwort auf die Zunahme chronischer Erkrankungen darstellt. Wir analysieren, warum kalorische Restriktion die am besten gesicherte Methode zur Lebensverlängerung ist und weshalb ein „leichter Hunger“ beim Verlassen des Tisches die Regel Nummer eins sein sollte. Ein besonderer Schwerpunkt liegt auf der differenzierten Betrachtung von Zuckertypen wie Fruktose und Glukose sowie der Bedeutung der „Matrix“ von Lebensmitteln, die über die Geschwindigkeit des Blutzuckeranstiegs entscheidet. Zudem erörtern wir die Bedeutung von kontinuierlichem Glukose-Monitoring (CGM) als diagnostisches Werkzeug, um individuelle Stoffwechselreaktionen auf Kohlenhydrate wie Kartoffeln oder Reis besser zu verstehen. In dieser Folge sprechen wir u.a. über folgende Themen: Warum ist kalorische Restriktion die am besten gesicherte Erkenntnis der Longevity-Forschung? Was verbirgt sich hinter den drei goldenen Regeln für eine optimale Ernährung? Wie beeinflusst die Lebensmittel-Matrix die Aufnahme von Fruktose in der Leber? Weshalb ist Fruktose in Früchten unbedenklich, in industriellen Produkten jedoch riskant? Was genau ist der „Nutritionismus“ und warum greift er zu kurz? Wie können Ballaststoffe die Aufnahme von Kalorien aus Zucker und Fett reduzieren? Warum empfiehlt Prof. Michalsen trotz des Ballaststoffgehalts keinen Vollkornreis? Was passiert beim Erhitzen und Abkühlen von Stärke in Kartoffeln und Nudeln? Wie wirkt sich die Farbe von Gemüse auf den Gehalt an schützenden Polyphenolen aus? Warum sollten wir Bitterstoffe wieder mehr in unseren Speiseplan integrieren? Weshalb ist Methionin in tierischen Proteinen ein kritischer Faktor für das Altern? Was ist der Vorteil von fermentierten Milchprodukten gegenüber Frischmilch?

In dieser Folge spreche ich mit Florian Wolf, dem CEO von Your Prevention und Experten für integrales Stresstyping. Stress gilt als einer der größten Risikofaktoren für das Altern; er ist ein systemischer Trigger für nahezu alle Zivilisationskrankheiten von Diabetes Typ 2 bis hin zur Neurodegeneration. Doch Stress ist nicht gleich Stress. Gemeinsam mit Florian Wolf beleuchte ich die neurobiologische Realität hinter Begriffen wie Eustress und Distress. Wir explorieren, warum klassische Ratschläge wie „einfach mal runterfahren“ oft scheitern, wenn das System bereits neuroadaptiv verstellt ist. Für eine echte Healthy Longevity ist es entscheidend zu verstehen, wie unser autonomes Nervensystem – das Zusammenspiel von Sympathikus und Parasympathikus – sowie das Orchester aus Neurotransmittern und Hormonen wie Cortisol und Katecholaminen unsere Resilienz bestimmen. Erfahren Sie, wie wir durch präzise Messmethoden wie die Herzfrequenzvariabilität (HRV) und spezifische Urin- sowie Speichelanalysen blinde Flecken in unserer Gesundheitsbiografie aufdecken können. In dieser Folge sprechen wir u.a. über folgende Themen: Warum gilt chronischer Stress als zentraler Trigger für altersbedingte Volkskrankheiten? Was unterscheidet Eustress von toxischem Distress auf biologischer Ebene? Wie verändern sich die Aktivitätszentren im Gehirn – weg vom präfrontalen Kortex hin zur Amygdala – bei Dauerbelastung? Welche Rolle spielen Katecholamine wie Adrenalin und Noradrenalin bei der Energiebereitstellung und Zellschädigung? Warum ist das Hormon Cortisol sowohl lebensnotwendig als auch in chronischer Überdosis gefährlich? Wie kann die Herzfrequenzvariabilität (HRV) als präziser Marker für die Regenerationsfähigkeit genutzt werden? Was verbirgt sich hinter dem Konzept des integralen Stresstypings (IST)? Weshalb ist die Messung im zweiten Morgenurin für die Bestimmung von Neurotransmittern so entscheidend? Wie beeinflussen genetische Varianten wie der COMT-Polymorphismus den Abbau von Stresshormonen? Warum ist eine Verhaltensänderung bei hoher Vulnerabilität ohne biologische Unterstützung oft unmöglich? Wie können Mikrointerventionen und die Silva-Mind-Methode helfen, neue neuronale Pfade zu festigen?

Send a textIs being inactive more dangerous than we think? In this clip from our episode “Why Exercise Beats Longevity Hacks”, CareTalk host John Driscoll speaks with Dr. Jordan Metzl, Author of The Athlete's Book of Home Remedies, about why movement may be the most powerful preventive medicine we have, even in the era of GLP-1s.Listen to the full episode here
Send us a textThe longevity boom is full of supplements, hacks, and expensive routines, but most of it ignores the simplest lever we already know works. If movement is the most studied “drug” for healthy aging, why are so many people still stuck on the sidelines?Dr. Jordan Metzl, Author of The Athlete's Book of Home Remedies joins CareTalk host John Driscoll, Chairman of UConn Health, to discuss why exercise is the most powerful prescription for healthspan, how motivation can be built through practical behavior change, and how strength and community can help prevent chronic disease over the long run.
In dieser Folge spreche ich mit Dr. Thomas Buberl, CEO der AXA, über die Zukunft unseres Gesundheitssystems. Deutschland gibt enorm viel Geld für Gesundheit aus, liegt bei der Lebenserwartung aber nur im internationalen Mittelfeld. Dr. Buberl erklärt, warum unser System an seine Grenzen kommt, wenn es bei Reparaturmedizin bleibt, und weshalb Prävention der entscheidende Hebel für Healthy Longevity ist. Wir sprechen darüber, welche Rolle Krankenversicherer künftig spielen können, wie digitale Begleitung, Case Management und Communities aussehen könnten und warum ein kultureller Wandel notwendig ist, damit Menschen Verantwortung für ihre Gesundheit übernehmen. In dieser Folge sprechen wir u.a. über folgende Themen: - Warum ist das deutsche Gesundheitssystem trotz hoher Kosten ineffizient? - Weshalb reicht Reparaturmedizin langfristig nicht mehr aus? - Welche Rolle können Krankenversicherer als Gesundheitsmanager übernehmen? - Wie funktionieren Case Management und persönliche Begleitung in der Prävention? - Warum ist Prävention ein kultureller und kein rein technischer Wandel? - Welche Menschen profitieren heute bereits von Präventionsangeboten? - Wie können digitale Tools Prävention alltagstauglich machen? - Welche Bedeutung haben Gemeinschaften und soziale Motivation für Prävention? - Welche Anreizsysteme fördern gesundes Verhalten wirksam? - Warum sind Transparenz und Vertrauen beim Umgang mit Gesundheitsdaten zentral? - Wie kann frühzeitige Gesundheitsbildung langfristig Healthy Longevity fördern?

In dieser Folge spreche ich mit Prof. Wolfram Ruf, einem der international führenden Forscher auf dem Gebiet der Thromboinflammation. Er ist wissenschaftlicher Direktor des Zentrums für Thrombose und Hämostase am Center for Healthy Aging der Universitätsmedizin Mainz. Wir sprechen darüber, wie Blutgerinnung, Entzündung und Immunsystem miteinander verflochten sind – und warum diese Prozesse im Alter aus dem Gleichgewicht geraten können. Herzinfarkt, Schlaganfall, Krebs, Sepsis oder Covid-19 lassen sich aus dieser Perspektive neu verstehen. Professor Ruf erklärt, wie grundlegende Mechanismen der Blutgerinnung ursprünglich schützen, im Alter aber krankheitsfördernd wirken können – und welche neuen therapeutischen und präventiven Ansätze sich daraus für Healthy Longevity ergeben.In dieser Folge sprechen wir u.a. über folgende Themen: • Wie sind Blutgerinnung und Entzündung biologisch miteinander verknüpft?• Warum steigt das Risiko für Thrombosen mit zunehmendem Alter?• Was genau versteht man unter dem Begriff Thromboinflammation?• Wie entsteht ein Herzinfarkt aus gestörter Blutgerinnung und Entzündung?• Warum sind Krebs und Thrombose so eng miteinander verbunden?• Welche physiologische Aufgabe hat der Tissue Factor im gesunden Körper?• Wie missbrauchen Tumoren Gerinnungsfaktoren für ihr Wachstum?• Welche doppelte Rolle spielen Blutplättchen bei Immunabwehr und Entzündung?• Warum ist Sepsis eine besonders gefährliche thromboinflammatorische Erkrankung?• Was hat Covid-19 über die Verbindung von Virusinfektion, Gerinnung und Entzündung gezeigt?• Wie verändert der Alterungsprozess die Blutbildung im Knochenmark?Weitere Informationen zu Prof. Wolfram Ruf findest du hier: https://www.unimedizin-mainz.de/cth/professuren-arbeitsgruppen-gastwissenschaftler/ruf-wissenschaftlicher-direktor.htmlDu interessierst dich für Gesunde Langlebigkeit (Longevity) und möchtest ein Leben lang gesund und fit bleiben, dann folge mir auch auf den sozialen Kanälen bei Instagram, TikTok, Facebook oder YouTube.https://www.instagram.com/nina.ruge.officialhttps://www.tiktok.com/@nina.ruge.officialhttps://www.facebook.com/NinaRugeOffiziellhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOe2d1hLARB60z2hg039l9g Disclaimer: Ich bin keine Ärztin und meine Inhalte ersetzen keine medizinische Beratung.

Biological resilience underpins healthy aging, and Anthony Molina, Ph.D., investigates how people resist, adapt to, and recover from age-related stressors. Molina defines three domains of resilience linked to aging and studies “life course” resilience using the Rancho Bernardo Study, a longitudinal cohort that starts in 1972 and tracks cognitive, sensory, physical function and comorbidities. His group analyzes trajectory scores from tasks such as the trail-making test and examines thousands of blood molecules to identify patterns that distinguish exceptionally resilient participants. Laboratory experiments show how age-related molecular profiles relate to mitochondrial function and ATP production. Molina's team also tests behavioral and nutritional interventions in rigorously designed clinical studies, combining molecular biomarkers of biological age with measures of physical performance, cognition, sensory abilities, and mental well-being.

In this episode of Longevity by Design, host Gil Blander sits down with Florence Comite, MD, physician-scientist and founder of the Comite Center for Precision Medicine & Healthy Longevity. They explore why a one-size-fits-all approach to longevity falls short and how personalized data, from biomarkers to genetics, can spot early signs of disease before symptoms appear.Florence explains her “Nof1” method, which uses deep testing, wearables, and personal history to craft precise health plans. She highlights how sleep, more than exercise or diet, shapes long-term health but remains hard for most people to optimize. Using real-world examples, Florence shows why tracking markers like insulin and hormones matter, and why most people need support to turn health knowledge into action.The conversation covers the limits of standard medical care, the value of knowing your family history, and how even the best routines must adapt over time. Florence urges listeners to get curious about their own data and take steps—however small—toward better health.Guest-at-a-Glance

The Milken Institute's Future of Aging team, led by Lauren Dunning, has released a new report titled "The Future of Connected Care: Enabling Healthy Longevity and Aging at Home." This report addresses the growing preference and necessity for aging at home, highlighting that 97.5% of older adults over 65 live in non-institutional settings. It explores the role of technology in creating a connected care ecosystem that integrates older adults with their environments, families, and healthcare providers. The report identifies six building blocks for action to enhance awareness, adoption, and access to age tech solutions, emphasizing the need for infrastructure to facilitate data exchange and the development of digital front doors for personalized health insights. The urgency of this initiative is underscored by demographic shifts, shortages in direct care workers, and the increasing number of solo agers. The report calls for collaboration across sectors to address these challenges and improve the aging experience through technology. The Milken Institute continues to advance research in this area, aiming to support healthy longevity and financial security for all generations.https://milkeninstitute.org/content-hub/research-and-reports/reports/transcending-age-based-divides-case-scaling-intergenerational-solutions
Today we discuss the carbon molecule ESS60 and it's applications for Oxidated Stress, Longevity of life, and more:Scott Mulvaney and Chris Burris discuss the health benefits of ESS60, a Nobel Prize-winning molecule discovered in 1985. ESS60, a spherical molecule of 60 carbon atoms, was found to extend the life of Wistar rats by 90% when dissolved in olive oil.

Are you navigating perimenopause or menopause while also managing chronic health conditions? Or perhaps perimenopause has triggered an underlying, previously dormant issue? Traditional healthcare may not be enough to combat the symptoms, but do not fear! Today's guest is here to teach us how your nervous system, immune system, and hormones can all work together to support healing and longevity. This week, host Jenn Trepeck is joined by Dr. Jessica Drummond, Founder and CEO of The Integrative Women's Health Institute. Together, they explore how seemingly “silent” chronic conditions like endometriosis, pelvic pain, autoimmune disorders or even long covid, can complicate menopause—and what you can do about it. Dr. Drummond shares her insights on calming the nervous system, building metabolic health through nutrient-dense habits, and using tools like heart rate variability (HRV) to guide recovery. The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, who discusses wellness and weight loss for real life, clearing up the myths, misinformation, bad science & marketing 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) The impact of menopause on silent chronic conditions(05:44) Dr. Jessica Drummond reflects on her professional journey in the chronic condition space(11:11) Common underlying chronic conditions affecting menopause(16:08) Discussion of the silent underlying conditions that can manifest later in life(25:43) Calming the nervous system to heal in a consistent way(30:50) The importance of your metabolic health in the form of nutrient-dense food, strength training, walking, hydration and circadian rhythm(32:09) Discussion of heart rate variability, recovery, and developing the art of sitting quietly(41:36) The importance of working with a health coach to plan for the future of your healthKEY TAKEAWAYS:Menopause and perimenopause symptoms can be overwhelming on their own. Still, when layered on top of chronic conditions like endometriosis, pelvic pain, autoimmune disorders, or post-viral syndromes (e.g., long COVID), it creates a compounded health challenge. Traditional training often overlooks the role of nutrition, nervous system regulation, and lifestyle in healing. Chronic conditions—especially during perimenopause—require a personalized, holistic strategy.Healing during menopause doesn't require drastic changes—small, consistent steps matter most. Start where it feels easiest, like mindfulness, nutrition, or gentle movement. Recovery and nervous system regulation are just as important as action.

It was more like you needed adequate nutrients to perform certain physical activities, but we didn't think about it from an anti-inflammatory standpoint.” - Dr. Jessica Drummond(13:59) “Research shows us that acute illnesses like infections trigger chronic diseases.” - Dr. Jessica Drummond(22:36) “It's exposing these underlying things that have been lying dormant, that we just brushed aside or pushed through because they weren't really standing in the way of us doing the things that we wanted to do.” - Jenn Trepeck(40:19) “I think we make these plans expecting perfection, planning for this optimal, ideal day that never happens. So put these things in place so they happen even on the days where we don't feel a hundred percent, even on the days where nothing goes as planned.” - 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 InstagramUse Your Heart Rate Monitor to Improve Your Health GUEST RESOURCES:The Integrative Women's Health InstituteIntegrative Women's Health - Podcast Integrative Women's Health - PubMedInnovative Approaches to Chronic Pain with The Anodunos Method TeamGUEST BIOGRAPHY:Dr. Jessica Drummond, DCN, CNS, PT, NBC-HWC, is a leading expert in women's health and the Founder and CEO of The Integrative Women's Health Institute.
