Mindsip insights from this episode:
Embrace holistic approach to reduce specialist visits by 77%
A holistic, root-cause approach can reduce the need to see multiple specialists by 77%, as it addresses the interconnectedness of symptoms that are often treated in isolation.
Implement longevity protocol focusing on brains, bones, and booty
A longevity protocol for women should focus on 'Brains, Bones, and Booty,' which means preserving cognitive function, bone density, and lean muscle mass through perimenopause and beyond.
Include women in longevity research for comprehensive understanding
Women were systematically excluded from most medical research until 1993 because their hormones were considered too complicated, meaning much of what we know about longevity is based on male biology.
Challenge insurers to prioritize long-term health investments
A major barrier to preventative care is that commercial insurers typically only have members for 18-24 months, so they lack the financial incentive to invest in your long-term health.
Beware muscle loss with Ozempic use to maintain metabolic rate
A major problem with GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic is that you lose as much muscle mass as you do fat mass, which can lower your metabolic rate long-term.
Manage blood sugar to prevent hormonal imbalance from sugar
Eating sugar spikes insulin, which bumps testosterone that then converts to estrogen, creating a massive downstream hormonal imbalance that can be solved by managing blood sugar.
Reintroduce exposure to dirt and germs to strengthen immune systems
Our immune systems are systematically losing their ability to distinguish the body from an invader because modern, overly-sanitized life deprives them of the exposure to dirt and germs needed for proper training.
Pair vitamin D3 with K2 for optimal calcium absorption
Vitamin D3 should always be taken with K2, because while D3 helps you absorb calcium, K2 directs that calcium into your bones instead of your arteries.
Choose whole foods over processed to boost immunity and brain function
A calorie is not a calorie from a health perspective because processed foods are depleted of key nutrients and full of inflammatory fats that negatively impact immunity, brain function, and hormones.
