Hormones are about far more than hot flashes. In this episode of New Frontiers in Functional Medicine, Dr. Kara Fitzgerald is joined by urologist and hormone expert Dr. Kelly Casperson for a conversation that challenges conventional thinking about menopause, hormone replacement therapy (HRT), and healthy aging. Dr. Casperson explains why menopause may be better understood as a form of hypogonadism, shares the story behind the removal of the FDA's black box warning on vaginal estrogen, and explores the latest evidence on estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone therapy for women. Topics include: • Vaginal estrogen and the FDA black box warning • The lasting impact of the Women's Health Initiative (WHI) • Estrogen, brain health, and mitochondrial function • Testosterone therapy for women: science and misconceptions • Hormone therapy after age 60 • Patient education, body literacy, and informed decision-making • Exercise, sleep, alcohol reduction, and other foundations of healthy aging Whether you're a functional medicine practitioner or someone interested in menopause, longevity, and women's health, this evidence-based conversation offers practical insights and a fresh perspective on hormone care.

There's a hormone that most men have either never heard of… or completely misunderstand.And according to my own experimentation, it may be one of the most powerful things for improving libido, erections, stress resilience, sleep quality, and overall hormonal health.In this podcast, I break down my personal experience using progesterone, the anti-stress effects I noticed, the impact it had on libido and erections, and why I believe most modern men are stuck in a stress-dominant hormonal state.In this podcast you'll learn:• What progesterone actually does in the male body• The connection between stress hormones and low libido• Why estrogen dominance may be more common in men than people realize• How progesterone may support testosterone and androgen pathways• The connection between cortisol, prolactin, dopamine, and sexual health• My personal experience experimenting with progesterone• Different forms of progesterone and dosage approachesThis is not medical advice — just my own experimentation and research journey.As always, take responsibility for your own health, do your own research, and work with a qualified practitioner if needed.See YouTube video description for links mentioned in video.Get my FREE Ebook - 3 Techniques for Legendary Ejaculation Control:

What if one of the most important health crises affecting men today wasn't being caused by aging, but by the environment we live in? In this eye-opening solo episode, Darin Olien investigates the alarming decline in testosterone levels, fertility, and reproductive health among men worldwide. Drawing on decades of research, epidemiological studies, environmental science, endocrinology, and public health data, Darin examines the growing evidence connecting endocrine-disrupting chemicals, microplastics, sleep deprivation, chronic stress, poor lifestyle habits, and environmental toxins to declining testosterone levels across generations. From BPA, phthalates, atrazine, PFAS, and microplastics to sleep quality, circadian rhythms, cholesterol metabolism, cortisol regulation, and natural testosterone-supporting strategies, this episode explores what may be one of the most underreported public health issues of our time—and what men can do to take control of their health today.     What You'll Learn Why testosterone levels have been declining for decades The startling research on global sperm count decline How endocrine-disrupting chemicals interfere with hormone production Why BPA and phthalates may disrupt testosterone synthesis The role of atrazine, PFAS, and environmental toxins How chronic stress diverts resources away from testosterone production Why sleep may be the most important testosterone intervention The connection between cholesterol and hormone production How microplastics are being found throughout the human body The surprising relationship between statins and testosterone levels Natural lifestyle strategies that support healthy hormone production Practical steps to reduce environmental exposure and improve health     Chapters 00:00:00 – Welcome to SuperLife 00:00:33 – Sponsor: Fatty15 and cellular health 00:04:17 – The testosterone collapse explained 00:04:51 – Testosterone levels have been declining for decades 00:06:03 – Global sperm count decline and accelerating trends 00:07:02 – Why treating symptoms misses the root cause 00:07:27 – The hidden public health crisis 00:08:03 – Why low testosterone isn't just about aging 00:09:12 – Why hormone health affects longevity 00:09:53 – Low testosterone and increased mortality risk 00:10:35 – Testosterone's role in metabolism and cardiovascular health 00:11:27 – Endocrine-disrupting chemicals and hormone disruption 00:12:44 – BPA and its effects on testosterone production 00:13:59 – Phthalates and their impact on hormone pathways 00:16:00 – Glyphosate, atrazine, and pesticide exposure 00:17:07 – PFAS and reproductive health concerns 00:17:55 – Environmental toxins and population-wide effects 00:18:11 – Sponsor: Shakeology 00:20:02 – Cholesterol and hormone production 00:20:53 – Chronic stress and cortisol dominance 00:21:45 – Actionable solutions begin 00:21:56 – Why sleep is essential for testosterone production 00:23:07 – How sleep deprivation rapidly lowers testosterone 00:23:21 – Light pollution and circadian disruption 00:23:41 – Foods and nutrients needed for hormone health 00:24:23 – Microplastics and testicular tissue 00:24:53 – Statins and unintended hormonal consequences 00:25:39 – A practical testosterone sovereignty protocol 00:25:48 – Water filtration and reducing toxic exposure 00:26:13 – Eliminating plastics and fragrance chemicals 00:26:35 – Why organic food matters 00:26:45 – Sunlight and vitamin D 00:27:05 – Magnesium, omega-3s, and iodine 00:27:26 – Pine pollen and natural androgen support 00:28:01 – Tongkat Ali and ashwagandha 00:28:48 – Strength training and lifestyle interventions 00:29:10 – Habits that naturally support testosterone 00:29:27 – Darin's approach to healthy aging 00:29:37 – Plants, herbs, and common sense 00:29:51 – Reclaiming your health and sovereignty 00:30:00 – Final thoughts and closing message     Thank You to Our Sponsors Fatty15: Get an additional 15% off their 90-day subscription Starter Kit by going to fatty15.com/DARIN and using code DARIN at checkout.

It may be a reflection of the modern environment itself—one increasingly saturated with endocrine-disrupting chemicals, chronic stress, poor sleep, circadian disruption, and toxic exposures. While many of these forces feel outside our control, the encouraging reality is that many of the most powerful interventions remain accessible: improving sleep, reducing toxic load, eating whole foods, getting sunlight, managing stress, exercising regularly, and reclaiming responsibility for our health. The goal isn't fear. The goal is awareness—and action."     Bibliography/Sources: The Decline — Primary Research Levine, H., Jørgensen, N., Martino-Andrade, A., et al. (2022).

In this timely episode, Chris discusses the best ways to avoid becoming a statistic while hiking during desert heat waves. He also points out that the vast majority of people suffering injury and death from extreme heat have little other choice. Migrants, the incarcerated, and outdoor labor all face serious threats from hot weather, with little recourse to protect themselves. That's why state and federal protections for workers and the incarcerated are so crucial. Notable Quotes: "Heat turns minor mistakes into fatal mistakes." "Testosterone is not an electrolyte replacement." Incarcerated people dying from heat injury is a frequent and growing problem that is not tracked in any methodical way." "Hug your dogs."

In this episode Phil Vella, founder of Vita Bella, returns to break down the wild west of the gray market peptide industry. He shares new data showing 70 percent of research peptides now fail purity and contamination testing, why so many random people are running peptide side hustles out of their garages, and the real risks of injection site infections and improperly dosed products. They cover why hormone optimization should always come before peptides, the most popular peptides Vita Bella prescribes, the science behind PDE5 inhibitors for both performance and longevity, and the regulatory battle between big pharma and compounding pharmacies over GLP medications. Phil also opens up about a brutal stretch of his life that included losing his father, a double spinal fusion injury, and nine people from his childhood neighborhood dying by suicide within about a year, and how that period reshaped his understanding of money, purpose, and fatherhood.

In this episode, Dr. Brendan McCarthy breaks down one of the most misunderstood topics in hormone replacement therapy: estradiol. Not all estrogen is the same—and how estradiol is delivered can dramatically affect hormone balance, inflammation, clotting risk, testosterone levels, and overall health outcomes. Dr. McCarthy discusses: • Why route of administration matters (oral, patch, injectable, topical, vaginal, pellet) • How oral estradiol converts to estrone • The differences between estradiol (E2), estrone (E1), and estriol (E3) • Estrone's relationship to inflammation and metabolic health • Oral estrogen and clotting risk • Oral estrogen's effect on SHBG and free testosterone • The impact of oral estrogen on IGF-1 and growth hormone signaling • Why informed consent should be central to hormone therapy • Benefits and limitations of pellets, patches, creams, and injections • Estriol and emerging research in autoimmune conditions such as multiple sclerosis At Protea Medical Center, our philosophy is simple: patients deserve complete information so they can make empowered decisions about their health.

We break down the logistics for tomorrow's Knicks parade before taking a call from a listener with an odd life story about his dad moving to Thailand. Jerry returns for an update, right after we discuss what time people should line up for tomorrow's festivities. Then, we cover KAT on Howard Stern talking Patrick Ewing, Jalen Brunson drawing fourth-quarter comparisons to Kobe Bryant, and Paul Goldschmidt homering in a Yankees win behind Gerrit Cole. Finally, we debate which Knicks celebrities will show up tomorrow and take a call from a woman explaining the testosterone-driven reason why coaches ban players from having sex.

On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared shines a spotlight on boron, one of the most overlooked minerals in human nutrition and a nutrient with surprising implications for bone health, hormone balance, vitamin D activity, and healthy aging. A major focus of this episode is osteoporosis prevention and bone density support, including why simply taking more calcium may not be the answer. Jared explores the science behind boron's role in calcium retention, magnesium utilization, vitamin D metabolism, and healthy bone formation while also discussing the importance of key bone-building cofactors like vitamin K2, silica, and magnesium. He breaks down the research on osteoporosis, osteopenia, and the "calcium paradox," while explaining how boron may support healthy hormone levels, cognitive function, joint comfort, and overall wellness. If you're concerned about aging well, maintaining strong bones, or optimizing your health naturally, this episode is a must-listen.Products:Vital D3/K2 High PotencyVital D3/K2Solaray Calcium HydroxyapatiteMagnesium Bisglycinate Ultimate Vitality MultiHakala Labs BoroTabVisit the podcast website here: VitalityRadio.comYou can follow @vitalitynutritionbountiful and @vitalityradio on Instagram, or Vitality Radio and Vitality Nutrition on Facebook.

Most men think erectile dysfunction is a bedroom problem and low testosterone is just a fact of getting older. This roundtable makes the case that both are early warning lights for your heart, your metabolism, and your long-term health and that ignoring them can cost you a decade.In this episode, Dr. Gabrielle Lyon sits down with urologists and men's health specialists Dr. Mohit Khera, Dr. Larry Lipshultz, and Dr. Tobias Köhler to discuss:Why a 35-year-old with ED carries a ~15% risk of heart attack or stroke within 7 years, ~3.5x the risk of depression, and ~30% odds of diabetes or prediabetes and why a prescription alone misses all of itWhy "age-related" testosterone decline is largely a misnomer: a healthy man shouldn't drop significantly with age, so falling T usually signals something reversible underneathHow testosterone became the single best blood marker of a man's overall health, and the case for annual screening that almost no man getsWhat the TRAVERSE trial changed when the FDA removed testosterone's cardiovascular warning in 2025, debunking the prostate-cancer and heart-attack fearsThe 2-minute monthly self-exam every man should do to catch testicular cancer early, when it's ~99% curableIf you've been told your symptoms are "just aging" or you love a man who refuses to see a doctor.

Discover why hormones are off and what's really driving the imbalance. In this episode, we break down five root causes — from gut dysfunction and disrupted sleep to chronic stress, appetite dysregulation, and omega-3 deficiency — and walk through what you can actually do to fix it. FEATURED PRODUCT Berberine is a powerful botanical compound that acts as a natural GLP-1 supporter — the same metabolic pathway targeted by medications like Ozempic — helping regulate blood sugar, reduce insulin resistance, and restore appetite signaling from the gut. Since metabolic hormones like insulin and leptin are the first to derail your entire hormone cascade, Berberine directly addresses one of the deepest root causes discussed in this episode. It also supports gut microbiome diversity, making it a foundational tool for anyone working to reclaim hormonal balance naturally.

I speak with Johnathan Jarecki, undergraduate science student and host of The Signal Podcast, on all things photobiology.

Friends,Today Heather and I take a deep dive into Elon Musk's new status as America's first trillionaire — worth one thousand billion dollars — and its meaning for the future of American capitalism. How much of SpaceX's valuation is based on hype? How much on connections in the Trump regime? How much on Musk's lobbying of major stock index funds? Answer: almost all of it. We also look at Musk and Trump's (and Pete Hegseth's and Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s and JD Vance's) obsession with male virility — where that comes from and how it's connected to tomorrow's cage match on the South Lawn of the White House.

In Part 2 of our June series with Nick Koumalatsos, we dive into a topic affecting millions of men but rarely discussed openly: testosterone.Nick shares his personal experience navigating hormone health, why testosterone levels are declining across the population, and the ripple effect it has on energy, confidence, relationships, and society as a whole.

Okay so we started this episode asking the hard-hitting questions — would you rather give up caffeine or social media? And Caleigh's answer might tell you everything you need to know about her. But then we got into the actual topic, and it's a good one: testosterone. Not just a "man thing." We both have it. We both need it. And a lot of us are running low without even knowing it.Sara pulled her actual Function Health results on air and her total testosterone came in at a 7. Optimal range? 15 to 47. So we got into what that actually means: the fatigue you brush off, the brain fog you chalk up to being busy, the muscle tone that just isn't responding the way it used to. Plus we busted a few myths — including the one that says you need TRT to build muscle after 40 (you don't, for most people) and the one that says low T only affects your sex drive (very, very false).We covered the lifestyle stuff that actually moves the needle — strength training, eating enough, sleep, managing stress — and what tanks it (extreme calorie restriction and crushing cardio, we're looking at you). And if you're at the point where lifestyle isn't cutting it anymore, we got into TRT options: shots, pellets, and creams. Yes, there's a pellet that goes in your butt. We discussed it.

Perimenopause is more than hot flashes and irregular periods. In this episode, host Erin Kerry sits down with Christian nutritionist Chelsea Blackbird to discuss the surprising physical, emotional, and mental changes women experience during midlife hormone shifts. Together they explore the connection between progesterone, estrogen, histamine, anxiety, sleep, trauma, autoimmune conditions, and nervous system health. They also discuss hormone replacement therapy (HRT), natural support options like evening primrose oil, vitex, and maca, and why foundational habits such as sunlight, sleep, stress regulation, and nutrition matter more than ever during this season. If you've ever thought, "I don't feel like myself anymore," this conversation will help you understand why—and what you can do to support your body through the transition. Key Topics: - What perimenopause actually is - Why women often feel "off" before cycles become irregular - Progesterone decline and estrogen dominance - Histamine, hives, food sensitivities, and hormone fluctuations - Trauma resurfacing during midlife - Anxiety, self-doubt, and neurotransmitter changes - HRT: benefits, limitations, and common misconceptions - Evening primrose oil, vitex, and maca - Testosterone and female motivation, focus, and libido - Autoimmune flares during perimenopause - The role of sunlight in hormone regulation - Nervous system resilience and adrenal health - Sleep and circadian rhythms - Faith-based stewardship of health

Not because of disease. Because of five everyday habits that modern men think are completely normal. In this episode, I'm breaking down the five silent mistakes that are aging men faster than anything else right now, the science behind why they're so damaging, and the exact daily stack I personally use to fight back. I'm 41 years old and I've watched this happen to men I love. The decline doesn't announce itself. But it can be reversed. Key Takeaways: Men today have 20 to 30% less testosterone than men of the same age in 1988, per the Massachusetts Male Aging Study Grip strength predicts death more accurately than blood pressure, per a Lancet meta-analysis of 140,000 people One week of sleeping 5 hours or less drops testosterone by 10 to 15%, the equivalent of aging 10 to 15 years Sitting for long hours thins the memory center of the brain, and exercise does not offset this damage 85-year-olds gained muscle and reversed fiber-level aging in 12 weeks of resistance training in a Mayo Clinic study The five mistakes: stopping explosive movement, stopping brain challenges, ignoring muscle decline, neglecting recovery, and accepting decline as normal The simple daily stack: outdoor walks, heavy lifting twice a week, one gram of protein per pound of ideal body weight, 7+ hours of sleep, creatine, magnesium, and weekly brain challenges Find All The Ben Azadi Show Sponsorship Deals ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.ketokamp.com/sponsorship-deals Learn more about your ad choices.

Dr. Max Gulhane (MD) is a practising family medicine physician and health-optimising physician with a passion for root-cause analysis of human chronic disease and longevity. We discuss the full solar spectrum and how ultraviolet, visible, blue, red and near-infrared light each affect human physiology, including the POMC pathway, nitric oxide and blood pressure, and the evidence on sunlight, skin cancer and the vitamin D paradox. We discuss how artificial light at night suppresses melatonin and disrupts the circadian control of DNA repair, cardiovascular health, and metabolism. For those interested in light and circadian health, Dr. Gulhane offers a grounded, mechanism-focused framework for aligning daily light exposure with human biology.Full Show Notes here.

The Future of Men's and Women's Health: Testosterone, Public Policy, and Preventative Care What if the hormone most associated with men's health is also one of the most underutilized tools in women's medicine — and the biggest barrier isn't science, it's politics? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Helen Bernie urologist and tireless advocate for hormone health reform, to unpack why testosterone remains one of the most misunderstood, over-regulated, and under-prescribed interventions in modern medicine. We go deep on the FDA, the data, and what it's actually going to take to change the system. We cover: Why low testosterone should be part of routine health screening — for everyone The real links between testosterone deficiency and early mortality, diabetes, osteoporosis, and cardiovascular disease How erectile dysfunction is a cardiovascular biomarker hiding in plain sight The policy history that turned a hormone into a controlled substance — and what it's costing us Why women are still being left out of the testosterone conversation Peyronie's disease: what it is, how to prevent it, and what treatment actually looks like How combining hormone therapy with GLP-1s and lifestyle changes can reverse metabolic disease The dangers of unregulated men's health clinics — and what evidence-based care looks like instead New research on testosterone administration routes and clot risk Why healthy hormones aren't just personal — they're a public health issue This is the conversation medicine has been too uncomfortable to have.

Are your hormones changing—or are you simply being told that feeling exhausted, anxious, gaining weight, losing sleep, and struggling with brain fog is just a normal part of aging?In this eye-opening episode of the V.I.B.E. Living Podcast, we sit down with women's health expert and nurse practitioner Carolyn Zaumeyer to uncover the truth about menopause, hormone health, and why so many women are suffering unnecessarily.Carolyn breaks down the critical roles of estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone and explains how declining hormone levels can impact nearly every system in the body. From hot flashes and night sweats to anxiety, mood changes, low libido, joint pain, vaginal dryness, skin changes, fatigue, and disrupted sleep, we explore the symptoms many women experience but rarely connect to hormones.You'll also learn:• The most common signs of hormone imbalance during perimenopause, menopause, and postmenopause• How bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) works• The differences between estrogen patches, vaginal estrogen, progesterone, testosterone therapy, and hormone pellets• Why outdated hormone research created decades of confusion and fear around HRT• How proper hormone dosing and individualized treatment plans can improve quality of life• The important lab tests women should consider, including estradiol, testosterone, FSH, thyroid markers, vitamin D, and B12• How to advocate for yourself during medical appointments and get your concerns taken seriously• Why treating root causes is often more effective than adding medication after medicationWe also discuss men's hormone health and how optimizing testosterone can impact energy, mood, vitality, confidence, intimacy, and overall well-being.Whether you're navigating perimenopause, menopause, postmenopause, or simply want to better understand your body's changing needs, this conversation provides practical guidance, expert insights, and hope for the years ahead.If you're ready to feel vibrant, energized, and empowered in midlife and beyond, this episode is for you.

Send us Fan Mail"Can't we just lie down in our power? Do we have to step into it?"That question, offered by Ayurvedic teacher Claudia Welch, sparked everything in this episode. Because when we talk about stepping into our power, we are implying that power is somewhere outside of us — something to reach for, to put on, to earn. But what if that image is wrong?What if our power is not something we need to step into, but something we need to remember? What if it has been there all along — beneath the people-pleasing, the masking, the overriding of our bodies, the making ourselves smaller to fit into a world that was not built for us?In this solo episode I explore:The difference between stepping into power and remembering power — and why that distinction matters deeply, especially in midlifeThe Ayurvedic framework of langhana and brahmana — why we live in a profoundly langhana (outputting, reducing, forward-moving) world, and what we lose when brahmana (nourishing, building, gathering inward) is treated as optionalThe feminine archetypes of power — Durga, Athena, the Maori women — fierce and powerful, but different in nature from the masculineThe layers we are peeling away: people-pleasing, masking, performing wellness, overriding the body's signals, making ourselves smallerThe two hormonal clocks — how testosterone operates on a 24-hour circadian rhythm that the entire modern world was built around, while estrogen and progesterone operate on a 28-day infradian rhythm with four distinct phases, each asking something different from the body and brainWhy researchers excluded women from clinical trials because their monthly hormonal variability was too complicated — and how that shaped an entire model of medicine and productivity that was never designed for a female bodyThe four phases of the feminine cycle and what each one genuinely requires — including why rest must come before output in certain phases, not as a reward for productivity but as a biological prerequisitePerimenopause as initiation — why so many women hit burnout and hormonal transition at the same moment, why the symptoms are not a sign of failure, and why this season is actually an invitation into a deeper relationship with your own powerWhy midlife, when estrogen begins to drop, can bring its own kind of liberation — as certain veils begin to fall away on their ownThe community piece — why coming together with other women and speaking these truths out loud is itself part of reclaiming feminine powerWhy you don't need to figure out how to change the system — and what your one small step is this weekThis episode is for every woman who has ever felt like she couldn't keep up, and wondered what was wrong with her. Nothing is wrong with you. You are simply running on a different clock.Free resources mentioned:Nourished for Resilience Workbook — self-assessment, resourcing ideas, reflection questions, and habit trackerDIY At-Home Weekend Nervous System Reset Template Teachers mentioned: Claudia Welch (Ayurveda, women's health and hormones) — Alisa Vitti (In the Flo, infradian rhythm and cycle syncing)Resources:Free Masterclass:  The Alchemy of the Perimenopause PortalAyurvedic Dosha Quick Reference GuideAbhyanga Self Massage GuideWeekend Nervous System ResetNourished For Resilience Workbook Find me at www.nourishednervoussystem.comand @nourishednervoussytem on Instagram

The Menopause Mastery Show | The Hidden Shift In Midlife: Hormone Decline, Muscle Loss, and Healthy Aging During Menopause | Episode 281 with Jerry Mixon, MD

Most men think erectile dysfunction is a bedroom problem. It's actually one of the earliest warning signs of cardiovascular disease, capable of showing up three to five years before a heart attack.In this episode, Dr. Gabrielle Lyon sits down with Dr. Amy Pearlman, a urologist trained in men's sexual health, to discuss:Why ED is a symptom of vascular health, not a standalone disease and how the artery feeding the heart is roughly double the size of the one feeding the penis, so problems show up "down there" firstWhy "normal" testosterone can be meaningless, and the questions to ask before accepting a lab result that didn't flagHow daily erections preserve penile tissue the way water keeps a sponge supple and why disuse can cost noticeable size over just a few monthsThat cardiovascular exercise can rival ED medication for improving erectile function, making your heart health the real fixHow to track erectile fitness before there's a problem, instead of waiting until something breaksBy the end, you'll understand the single signal your body uses to flag heart and metabolic risk early and the simple, mostly drug-free steps that protect both your cardiovascular health and your sexual function for life.Thank you to our sponsors:Manukora - Go to https://bit.ly/3RCMrKx to save 31% plus $25 worth of free gifts.Timeline - Get 20% off your Mitopure order at https://bit.ly/4dW6BGNBon Charge - Save 15% at https://bit.ly/433Xi2B with code DRLYONExplore More from Dr. Gabrielle LyonPremium Podcast Subscription: Ad-free episodes, key takeaway summaries, exclusive Q&A, and behind-the-scenes content https://foreverstrong.supercast.comWeekly newsletter: Recipes, podcast updates, and practical weekly insights https://drgabriellelyon.com/sign-up/Apply to become a patient: Personalized care with Dr. Lyon's clinical team https://drgabriellelyon.com/new-patient-inquiry/Listen to "Pearls of Wisdom" on all your favorite platforms!Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4uOhWn5DeVXO7D2ppa0RoVApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/pearls-of-wisdom/id1617916659Find Dr. Amy Pearlman at:Website: https://www.primeinstitute.us/YouTube: https://youtube.com/@docamyurology?si=oJ2LZ_sxMPYTaK41Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/amypearlmanmd/X: https://x.com/AmyPearlman1LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/amy-pearlman-54a2b0208Connect with Dr. Gabrielle Lyon:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drgabriellelyon/TikTok: @drgabriellelyonX (Twitter): https://x.com/drgabriellelyonFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/doctorgabriellelyonTimestamps00:00 - Introduction01:25 - Erections predict cardiac events01:41 - The pen and artery analogy03:40 - No health milestones for men07:52 - Normal structure and function11:45 - The five S's of men's health21:24 - Why "normal" testosterone misleads25:00 - Testosterone and fertility risk31:05 - Steroids versus FDA-approved agents41:13 - The untreated 25-year-old43:56 - Sperm health and home testing52:02 - Peyronie's disease and injury1:01:34 - Protein, nutrition, supplements1:05:09 - Daily Cialis as a pre-workout1:13:32 - The sponge analogy1:15:31 - Erectile fitness tracking1:23:05 - The penis pump, used right1:27:24 - Restoring lost size1:35:00 - Traction and girth enhancement1:46:00 - Women's anatomy and pleasureIf you found this episode valuable, share it with someone who would benefit from it.Disclaimers: This episode includes paid sponsorships.The Dr. Gabrielle Lyon Podcast and YouTube are for general information purposes only and do not constitute the practice of medicine, nursing, or other professional health care services, including the giving of medical advice, and no doctor/patient relationship is formed.

Most people get their hormone levels tested once a year — if they think about it at all. Marina Pavlovic Rivas, Co-Founder & CEO of Eli Health, is on a mission to change that.  Ramon Vela sits down with Marina for a fascinating conversation about the technology she spent nearly seven years building: a saliva-based, at-home hormone monitoring platform that delivers cortisol, testosterone, and progesterone results to your phone in minutes, giving people real-time visibility into one of the most overlooked dimensions of their health. * The gap nobody was solving. After searching online for a way to track her own hormonal data, Marina realized the product didn't exist. So she built it, spending more than six years on R&D, regulatory approval, and venture capital before bringing it to market. * Hormones affect everything, not just fertility. From energy and mood to sleep, libido, bone health, cardiac health, and cognitive performance, Marina breaks down why hormonal data is one of the most important and most underused signals in personal wellness. * The wearable parallel that puts it all in context. Checking your hormones once a year is like measuring your heartbeat once a year: technically useful, but dangerously incomplete. Eli Health gives users the same continuous feedback loop that smartwatches brought to sleep and heart rate. * A six-second saliva test. Results in 20 minutes. Users collect saliva, wait 20 minutes, then photograph the test to receive results directly in the app. Repeat over time and you build a hormonal picture that no annual blood draw could ever provide. * Cortisol first, for good reason. Eli launched with cortisol because it sits at the top of the hormonal cascade. When cortisol is off, everything else follows. Testosterone and progesterone, including their interactions, are coming next. Join us in listening to this episode for a genuinely eye-opening conversation about hormonal health, the future of at-home diagnostics, and what it means to build a category that didn't exist before you created it.  Whether you're a health-conscious consumer, a founder, or someone who just wants to understand what their body is actually telling them, this one is for you.  Visit: https://eli.health/ Try their Instant Cortisol Test: https://eli.health/products/cortisol?view=sl-44128C61 If you enjoyed this episode, please leave The Story of a Brand Show a rating and review.  Plus, don't forget to follow us on Apple and Spotify.  Your support helps us bring you more content like this! * Today's Sponsors: Saral - The Influencer OS: https://www.getsaral.com/demo SARAL is the all-in-one influencer platform that finds brand-aligned creators, automates outreach, and manages everything in one place.

What if one of the most toxic products in your home isn't your cleaning spray, your cookware, or your water bottle… but the lip gloss sitting in your purse right now? In this eye-opening and deeply alarming conversation, Darin Olien sits down with clean beauty innovator, attorney, and consumer advocate Laura D'Alamo to expose what may be one of the biggest blind spots in modern health and beauty. After surviving triple-negative breast cancer and a near-fatal battle with COVID, Laura embarked on a two-year investigation into the cosmetic industry that uncovered a startling regulatory gap surrounding lip products, microplastics, toxic ingredients, and consumer safety. Together, they explore how lip products are regulated as external-use cosmetics despite being chronically ingested, why 80–90% of lip products may contain microplastics, how outdated regulations fail to reflect modern usage patterns, and why ingredients banned in food can still legally appear in products applied directly to the lips. They also discuss the launch of the Lip Service Alliance, the future of food-grade lip care, and how consumers can drive industry-wide change through awareness and purchasing decisions.     What You'll Learn Why lip products may represent a major overlooked toxic exposure pathway How cosmetics regulations differ from food and pharmaceutical regulations Why lip products are treated as external-use products despite being ingested The hidden role of microplastics in lip glosses, lipsticks, and lip balms Why flavored lip products may increase chronic ingestion How lip tissue differs biologically from normal skin The shocking absorption rates associated with oral mucosal tissue Why titanium dioxide is banned in European food but still used in lip products How outdated usage assumptions fail to reflect modern beauty habits Why the fastest-growing lip product market is girls ages 9–17 The mission behind the Lip Service Alliance How consumers can influence change through

Lip products are uniquely positioned at the intersection of ingestion, absorption, and chronic exposure, yet most regulatory systems still treat them as if they simply sit on the surface of the skin. Whether or not every concern raised in this conversation proves true over time, one thing is undeniable: consumers deserve better science, better transparency, and better products. And when enough people demand change, industries always find a way to evolve."

This episode was sponsored by Cardiff & Whole Men's Health    LightSpeed VT: https://www.lightspeedvt.com/ Dropping Bombs Podcast: https://www.droppingbombs.com/ Today's Dropping Bombs episode features Dr. B. Stephen Sanders, a board-certified family physician and founder of Whole Men's Health who built a nationwide men's performance medicine practice after nearly losing himself in the process.   In his late 30s, Dr. Sanders was 60 pounds overweight, drowning in brain fog and burnout, convinced his best days were behind him. He rebuilt himself from the ground up through hormone optimization, nutrition, and performance medicine, and now he's handing other men the exact playbook.    He breaks down America's sick care system, what's really driving the testosterone crash happening in men, and the truth about peptides and TRT that most doctors are too afraid to say out loud.   If your best days feel like they're behind you — they're not. This episode hands you the playbook.
