• 0:03
  doctor.
• 0:04
  We're
• 0:04
  not
• 0:04
  married
• 0:05
  to
• 0:05
  our
• 0:05
  doctors
• 0:06
  and
• 0:06
  even
• 0:06
  if
• 0:06
  we

• 0:07
  you
• 0:07
  can
• 0:07
  a
• 0:07
  doctor
• 0:08
  divorced.
• 0:09
  You
• 0:09
  don't
• 0:09
  necessarily
• 0:10
  have
• 0:10
  to
• 0:10
  fire
• 0:10
  them.
• 0:11
  You
• 0:11
  may
• 0:11
  just
• 0:11
  need
• 0:12
  to
• 0:12
  hire
• 0:12
  more
• 0:13
  people,
• 0:13
  add
• 0:13
  different
• 0:14
  people
• 0:14
  to
• 0:14
  your
• 0:14
  team.
• 0:15
  It's
• 0:15
  not
• 0:15
  just
• 0:16
  the
• 0:16
  calcium
• 0:17
  and
• 0:17
  it's
• 0:17
  more
• 0:18
  diet
• 0:18
  centric
• 0:19
  than
• 0:20
  supplement
• 0:21
  centric.
• 0:21
  I
• 0:21
  like
• 0:22
  to
• 0:22
  drink
• 0:22
  protein
• 0:23
  in
• 0:23
  the
• 0:23
  morning.
• 0:23
  Bone
• 0:24
  broth
• 0:24
  is
• 0:24
  great.
• 0:25
  Doing
• 0:25
  a
• 0:26
  smoothie
• 0:26
  with
• 0:27
  collagen,
• 0:28
  really
• 0:29
  trying
• 0:29
  to
• 0:29
  stay
• 0:29
  away
• 0:30
  from
• 0:30
  the
• 0:31
  coffee
• 0:31
  right
• 0:31
  away.
• 0:32
  I
• 0:32
  know
• 0:32
  that
• 0:33
  it's
• 0:33
  so
• 0:33
  hard.
• 0:34
  It's
• 0:34
  so
• 0:34
  hard.
• 0:35
  We
• 0:35
  need
• 0:35
  mitochondrial
• 0:36
  function
• 0:36
  to
• 0:37
  feel
• 0:37
  motivated
• 0:37
  to
• 0:37
  go
• 0:37
  to
• 0:38
  the
• 0:38
  gym,
• 0:38
  to
• 0:38
  lift
• 0:39
  weights,
• 0:39
  you
• 0:39
  know,
• 0:39
  and
• 0:40
  it
• 0:40
  becomes
• 0:40
  a
• 0:40
  vicious
• 0:41
  cycle
• 0:41
  of
• 0:42
  not
• 0:42
  having
• 0:42
  enough
• 0:42
  energy.
• 0:43
  So
• 0:43
  you're
• 0:43
  not
• 0:43
  doing
• 0:44
  the
• 0:44
  things
• 0:44
  that
• 0:44
  give
• 0:44
  you
• 0:44
  energy.
• 0:45
  Would
• 0:45
  you
• 0:45
  say
• 0:46
  it's
• 0:46
  more
• 0:46
  genetics
• 0:47
  than
• 0:47
  lifestyle
• 0:48
  or
• 0:48
  vice
• 0:48
  versa?
• 0:49
  I
• 0:49
  don't
• 0:50
  even
• 0:50
  really
• 0:50
  think
• 0:50
  most
• 0:51
  women
• 0:52
  think
• 0:52
  of
• 0:52
  the
• 0:53
  pill
• 0:54
  so
• 0:54
  much
• 0:54
  as
• 0:54
  hormones.
• 0:54
  They
• 0:55
  think
• 0:55
  it's
• 0:55
  regulating
• 0:56
  their
• 0:56
  menstrual
• 0:56
  cycle
• 0:57
  when
• 0:57
  really
• 0:58
  just
• 0:58
  taking
• 0:58
  the
• 0:59
  menstrual
• 0:59
  cycle
• 0:59
  away.
• 1:00
  So
• 1:00
  what
• 1:00
  is
• 1:01
  the
• 1:01
  remedy
• 1:01
  to
• 1:02
  the
• 1:02
  pill
• 1:02

  are
• 1:58
  here.
• 1:59
  As
• 1:59
  you
• 1:59
  can
• 1:59
  imagine,
• 1:59
  I
• 2:00
  have
• 2:00
  like
• 2:00
  a
• 2:00
  thousand
• 2:01
  questions
• 2:01
  for
• 2:01
  you
• 2:01
  because
• 2:02
  you
• 2:02
  talk
• 2:03
  about
• 2:03
  so
• 2:03
  many
• 2:04
  topics
• 2:05
  that
• 2:05
  are
• 2:05
  so
• 2:06
  important
• 2:06
  to
• 2:07
  women
• 2:07
  in
• 2:07
  midlife
• 2:08
  especially.
• 2:09
  I
• 2:09
  was
• 2:09
  just
• 2:09
  kind
• 2:09
  of
• 2:10
  going
• 2:10
  through
• 2:10
  the
• 2:10
  research
• 2:10
  and,
• 2:11
  and
• 2:11
  looking
• 2:12
  at
• 2:12
  some
• 2:12
  of
• 2:12
  your
• 2:12
  stuff
• 2:13
  and
• 2:13
  I
• 2:13
  love
• 2:14
  this
• 2:14
  term
• 2:15
  that
• 2:15
  you
• 2:15
  have
• 2:16
  come
• 2:16
  up
• 2:16
  with
• 2:17
  called
• 2:17
  the
• 2:18
  pill
• 2:18
  hangover.
• 2:19
  I
• 2:20
  am
• 2:20
  just
• 2:20
  like,
• 2:20
  oh
• 2:20
  my
• 2:21
  God.
• 2:21
  I
• 2:21
  feel
• 2:21
  like
• 2:21
  it
• 2:21
  applies
• 2:22
  to
• 2:22
  so
• 2:23
  many
• 2:23
  women.
• 2:24
  Definitely
• 2:24
  applies
• 2:25
  to
• 2:25
  me.
• 2:25
  I
• 2:25
  feel
• 2:25
  like.
• 2:27
  So
• 2:27
  would
• 2:27
  you
• 2:27
  mind
• 2:28
  explaining
• 2:28
  to
• 2:29
  your
• 2:29
  audience,
• 2:29
  to
• 2:29
  the
• 2:29
  audience
• 2:30
  what
• 2:31
  the
• 2:31
  pill
• 2:31
  hangover
• 2:31
  is?
• 2:32
  Well,
• 2:32
  when
• 2:33
  a
• 2:33
  lot
• 2:33
  of
• 2:33
  people
• 2:33
  think
• 2:33
  of
• 2:34
  a
• 2:34
  hangover,
• 2:34
  they
• 2:34
  think
• 2:34
  of
• 2:35
  just
• 2:35
  the
• 2:35
  morning
• 2:35
  after.
• 2:36
  But
• 2:36
  the
• 2:36
  Beauty
• 2:37
  of
• 2:37
  getting
• 2:37
  off
• 2:38
  the
• 2:38
  pill
• 2:38
  is
• 2:38
  you
• 2:39
  might
• 2:39
  not
• 2:39
  realize
• 2:39
  it
• 2:39
  until
• 2:40
  years
• 2:40
  later
• 2:41
  when
• 2:41
  you
• 2:41
  try
• 2:42
  to
• 2:42
  take
• 2:42
  progesterone,
• 2:43
  and
• 2:43
  it
• 2:43
  may
• 2:43
  not
• 2:43
  work
• 2:43
  as
• 2:44
  well
• 2:44
  as
• 2:44
  you
• 2:44
  wanted
• 2:45
  it
• 2:45
  to.
• 2:45
  So
• 2:46
  basically,
• 2:47
  we
• 2:47
  really
• 2:47
  have
• 2:47
  to
• 2:48
  give
• 2:48
  our
• 2:48
  time,
• 2:48
  our
• 2:49
  bodies
• 2:49
  time
• 2:49
  to
• 2:50
  reset
• 2:50
  after
• 2:51
  disrupting
• 2:52
  its
• 2:52
  natural
• 2:53
  function,
• 2:53
  after
• 2:54
  disrupting
• 2:54
  the
• 2:55
  way
• 2:55
  our,
• 2:55
  you
• 2:56
  know,
• 2:56
  HPA
• 2:56
  access
• 2:57
  works.
• 2:58
  Everything
• 2:59
  becomes
• 2:59
  very
• 3:00
  disconnected.
• 3:00
  And
• 3:01
  so
• 3:01
  it
• 3:01
  takes
• 3:01
  a
• 3:02
  while
• 3:02
  for
• 3:02
  our
• 3:02
  bodies
• 3:02
  to
• 3:03
  get
• 3:03
  back
• 3:03
  online,
• 3:03
  our
• 3:04
  receptors
• 3:04
  to
• 3:04
  get
• 3:05
  back
• 3:05
  online.
• 3:06
  It
• 3:07
  could
• 3:07
  look
• 3:07
  like
• 3:08
  acne,
• 3:09
  depression,
• 3:10
  fatigue,
• 3:11
  weight
• 3:11
  gain.
• 3:14
  The
• 3:14
  pill
• 3:14
  depletes
• 3:15
  us
• 3:15
  of
• 3:16
  minerals,
• 3:16
  vitamins,
• 3:17
  methylation
• 3:18
  capabilities.
• 3:19
  So
• 3:19
  there's
• 3:19
  just
• 3:19
  so
• 3:20
  many
• 3:20
  things
• 3:20
  that
• 3:20
  are
• 3:21
  involved
• 3:21
  and
• 3:22
  you
• 3:22
  may
• 3:23
  feel
• 3:24
  it
• 3:24
  right
• 3:24
  away
• 3:25
  or
• 3:26
  quite
• 3:27
  some
• 3:27
  time
• 3:27
  later.
• 3:28
  Well,
• 3:28
  I
• 3:28
  think
• 3:28
  there's
• 3:29
  something
• 3:29
  so
• 3:29
  interesting
• 3:30
  too
• 3:30
  about
• 3:30
  that.
• 3:30
  Is
• 3:31
  that
• 3:31
  the
• 3:31
  connection
• 3:32
  to
• 3:32
  the
• 3:32
  gut
• 3:32
  issues?
• 3:33
  Because
• 3:33
  I
• 3:34
  feel
• 3:34
  like
• 3:35
  at
• 3:35
  this
• 3:35
  time,
• 3:35
  so
• 3:36
  many
• 3:36
  of
• 3:36
  us
• 3:36
  have
• 3:36
  those,
• 3:37
  we're
• 3:37
  like,
• 3:37
  oh,
• 3:38
  it's
• 3:38
  like
• 3:38
  our
• 3:39
  guts
• 3:39
  aren't
• 3:39
  well.
• 3:39
  You
• 3:40
  know,
• 3:40
  we
• 3:40
  feel
• 3:40
  like
• 3:40
  we
• 3:40
  need
• 3:41
  to
• 3:41
  take
• 3:41
  more
• 3:41
  probiotics
• 3:42
  or
• 3:42
  we
• 3:42
  need
• 3:43
  to
• 3:43
  do
• 3:43
  all
• 3:44
  these
• 3:44
  different
• 3:44
  things.
• 3:45
  And
• 3:45
  what
• 3:45
  if
• 3:46
  that.
• 3:46
  If
• 3:47
  the
• 3:47
  pill
• 3:47
  was
• 3:47
  the
• 3:48
  root
• 3:48
  cause
• 3:48
  of
• 3:48
  all
• 3:48
  that
• 3:49
  kind
• 3:49
  of
• 3:49
  stuff?
• 3:50
  Yeah,
• 3:50
  exactly.
• 3:51
  I
• 3:51
  mean,
• 3:52
  and
• 3:52
  the
• 3:52
  thing
• 3:52
  is
• 3:52
  that
• 3:53
  a
• 3:53
  lot
• 3:53
  of
• 3:53
  the
• 3:54
  reason
• 3:54
  why
• 3:54
  people
• 3:55
  go
• 3:55
  on
• 3:55
  the
• 3:55
  pill
• 3:56
  in
• 3:56
  the
• 3:56
  first
• 3:56
  place,
• 3:57
  most
• 3:57
  of
• 3:57
  the
• 3:58
  time,
• 3:58
  especially
• 3:59
  in
• 3:59
  teenage
• 4:00
  and
• 4:00
  early
• 4:00
  20s,
• 4:00
  it's
• 4:01
  actually
• 4:01
  not
• 4:02
  contraception
• 4:03
  at
• 4:03
  all.
• 4:04
  It's
• 4:04
  to
• 4:05
  deal
• 4:05
  with
• 4:05
  other
• 4:06
  issues
• 4:07
  that
• 4:07
  are
• 4:07
  going
• 4:07
  on.
• 4:08
  And
• 4:08
  so
• 4:08
  when
• 4:08
  we're
• 4:08
  masking
• 4:09
  the
• 4:09
  root
• 4:09
  cause
• 4:10
  of
• 4:10
  why
• 4:10
  they're
• 4:10
  having
• 4:11
  those
• 4:11
  issues
• 4:12
  by
• 4:12
  using
• 4:12
  the
• 4:12
  pill,
• 4:12
  those
• 4:13
  things
• 4:13
  are
• 4:13
  just
• 4:13
  going
• 4:13
  to
• 4:13
  pop
• 4:14
  up.
• 4:14
  Not
• 4:14
  always,
• 4:15
  but
• 4:15
  often
• 4:16
  when
• 4:17
  you're
• 4:17
  done.
• 4:18
  So
• 4:19
  it
• 4:19
  may
• 4:20
  regulate
• 4:20
  things
• 4:20
  in
• 4:20
  the
• 4:21
  meantime,
• 4:21
  but
• 4:22
  we're
• 4:22
  going
• 4:22
  to
• 4:22
  have
• 4:22
  to
• 4:22
  get
• 4:22
  to
• 4:23
  the
• 4:23
  bottom
• 4:23
  of
• 4:23
  it
• 4:23
  at
• 4:24
  some
• 4:24
  point.
• 4:24
  Yes,
• 4:25
  and
• 4:25
  I
• 4:25
  feel
• 4:25
  like
• 4:25
  so
• 4:26
  many
• 4:26
  of
• 4:26
  us
• 4:26
  were
• 4:26
  on
• 4:26
  the
• 4:27
  pill
• 4:27
  for
• 4:27
  so
• 4:27
  long.
• 4:27
  I
• 4:28
  mean,
• 4:28
  I
• 4:28
  feel
• 4:28
  like
• 4:28
  I
• 4:28
  was
• 4:28
  on
• 4:29
  the
• 4:29
  pill
• 4:30
  for
• 4:30
  probably,
• 4:32
  God,
• 4:33
  15
• 4:33
  years.
• 4:34
  I
• 4:34
  mean,
• 4:35
  it
• 4:35
  was
• 4:35
  a
• 4:35
  long
• 4:36
  time.
• 4:37
  Right.
• 4:37
  How
• 4:37
  about
• 4:38
  you?
• 4:38
  Were
• 4:38
  you
• 4:38
  on
• 4:38
  it
• 4:38
  for
• 4:39
  a
• 4:39
  long
• 4:39
  time
• 4:39
  as
• 4:39
  well?
• 4:40
  I
• 4:40
  was,
• 4:40
  and
• 4:41
  I
• 4:41
  was
• 4:41
  given
• 4:41
  it
• 4:42
  in
• 4:42
  my
• 4:42
  teen
• 4:42
  years.
• 4:43
  And
• 4:43
  the
• 4:43
  crazy
• 4:44
  thing
• 4:44
  was,
• 4:44
  it
• 4:44
  wasn't
• 4:45
  for
• 4:45
  contraception.
• 4:46
  And
• 4:46
  actually
• 4:47
  my
• 4:47
  periods,
• 4:48
  I
• 4:48
  was
• 4:48
  fortunate,
• 4:49
  were
• 4:49
  quite
• 4:49
  regular
• 4:50
  and
• 4:50
  normal.
• 4:51
  And
• 4:51
  I
• 4:51
  didn't
• 4:51
  have
• 4:51
  a
• 4:51
  lot
• 4:51
  of
• 4:52
  cramping
• 4:52
  or
• 4:52
  irregular
• 4:53
  bleeding.
• 4:54
  It
• 4:54
  was
• 4:54
  just
• 4:54
  sort
• 4:54
  of
• 4:55
  standard
• 4:55
  practice.
• 4:56
  Okay.
• 4:56
  You
• 4:57
  have
• 4:57
  a
• 4:57
  menstrual
• 4:57
  cycle
• 4:58
  now.
• 4:58
  Let's
• 4:58
  just
• 4:58
  override
• 4:59
  it
• 4:59
  and
• 4:59
  give
• 4:59
  you
• 4:59
  the
• 5:00
  pill,
• 5:00
  and
• 5:00
  then
• 5:00
  you
• 5:00
  won't
• 5:00
  have
• 5:01
  to
• 5:01
  worry
• 5:01
  about
• 5:01
  anything.
• 5:02
  I
• 5:02
  mean,
• 5:02
  that
• 5:03
  was
• 5:03
  in
• 5:05
  the,
• 5:05
  like,
• 5:06
  mid
• 5:06
  to
• 5:06
  late
• 5:07
  80s,
• 5:08
  so.
• 5:08
  But
• 5:09
  I
• 5:09
  still
• 5:09
  see
• 5:09
  it
• 5:10
  so
• 5:10
  much
• 5:10
  now.
• 5:11
  So
• 5:12
  much
• 5:12
  where
• 5:12
  you
• 5:12
  Know,
• 5:12
  you
• 5:13
  go
• 5:13
  into
• 5:14
  the
• 5:14
  gynecologist's
• 5:15
  office
• 5:15
  as
• 5:15
  a
• 5:16
  teenager
• 5:16
  and
• 5:17
  even
• 5:17
  with
• 5:17
  no
• 5:18
  complaints,
• 5:18
  they'll
• 5:18
  want
• 5:19
  to
• 5:19
  put
• 5:19
  you
• 5:19
  on
• 5:19
  the.
• 5:20
  I
• 5:20
  think
• 5:21
  that
• 5:21
  word's
• 5:21
  gotten
• 5:21
  out
• 5:22
  thankfully
• 5:23
  that,
• 5:24
  you
• 5:24
  know,
• 5:25
  slowly
• 5:25
  but
• 5:25
  surely.
• 5:26
  I'm
• 5:26
  hoping
• 5:26
  it
• 5:26
  becomes
• 5:27
  less,
• 5:27
  but
• 5:27
  especially
• 5:27
  if
• 5:27
  you're
• 5:28
  a
• 5:28
  teenage
• 5:28
  girl
• 5:28
  and
• 5:29
  you
• 5:29
  are
• 5:29
  not
• 5:30
  sexually
• 5:30
  active
• 5:30
  but
• 5:31
  you're
• 5:31
  having
• 5:32
  acne
• 5:32
  or
• 5:33
  painful
• 5:33
  periods
• 5:34
  rather
• 5:35
  than
• 5:35
  looking
• 5:35
  into
• 5:36
  why
• 5:37
  you'll
• 5:37
  often
• 5:37
  get
• 5:37
  put
• 5:38
  on
• 5:38
  a
• 5:38
  pill.
• 5:38
  And
• 5:38
  for
• 5:39
  a
• 5:39
  parent,
• 5:39
  it's
• 5:40
  tempting
• 5:40
  too.
• 5:40
  I
• 5:41
  understand
• 5:41
  that.
• 5:41
  Because
• 5:42
  you
• 5:42
  don't
• 5:42
  want
• 5:42
  your
• 5:42
  child
• 5:42
  to
• 5:43
  suffer
• 5:43
  and
• 5:43
  it
• 5:44
  can
• 5:44
  be
• 5:44
  really
• 5:44
  difficult
• 5:45
  and
• 5:45
  costly
• 5:45
  to
• 5:46
  sort
• 5:46
  of
• 5:46
  get
• 5:46
  to
• 5:47
  the
• 5:47
  bottom
• 5:47
  line,
• 5:47
  what
• 5:48
  is
• 5:48
  causing
• 5:48
  it
• 5:49
  to
• 5:49
  be
• 5:49
  a
• 5:49
  difficult
• 5:50
  experience.
• 5:52
  But
• 5:52
  honestly,
• 5:53
  it
• 5:53
  really
• 5:53
  starts
• 5:54
  from
• 5:54
  day
• 5:54
  one.
• 5:55
  When
• 5:55
  I
• 5:55
  look
• 5:55
  at.
• 5:55
  So
• 5:56
  my
• 5:56
  kids
• 5:57
  range
• 5:57
  in
• 5:57
  age
• 5:58
  from
• 5:58
  9
• 5:58
  to
• 5:59
  18
• 6:00
  and
• 6:00
  when
• 6:01
  I
• 6:01
  look
• 6:01
  at
• 6:01
  my
• 6:01
  9
• 6:01
  year
• 6:02
  old
• 6:02
  daughter
• 6:02
  and
• 6:02
  her
• 6:03
  friends
• 6:03
  and
• 6:03
  the
• 6:03
  amount
• 6:04
  of
• 6:04
  sugar
• 6:04
  and
• 6:04
  processed
• 6:05
  foods
• 6:05
  that
• 6:06
  they
• 6:06
  eat
• 6:07
  and
• 6:08
  my
• 6:08
  daughter
• 6:08
  doesn't,
• 6:09
  and
• 6:09
  I
• 6:09
  explained
• 6:09
  to
• 6:10
  her,
• 6:10
  we
• 6:10
  talk
• 6:10
  about
• 6:11
  having
• 6:11
  a
• 6:11
  period
• 6:12
  even
• 6:12
  now
• 6:12
  before
• 6:13
  she's
• 6:13
  even
• 6:14
  getting
• 6:14
  one,
• 6:15
  because
• 6:15
  I
• 6:15
  want
• 6:15
  her
• 6:15
  to
• 6:15
  understand
• 6:16
  if
• 6:16
  you
• 6:17
  eat
• 6:17
  a
• 6:17
  lot
• 6:17
  of
• 6:17
  sugar
• 6:17
  and
• 6:18
  processed
• 6:18
  foods
• 6:18
  when
• 6:19
  you're
• 6:19
  a
• 6:19
  little
• 6:19
  girl,
• 6:20
  the
• 6:20
  odds
• 6:20
  of
• 6:21
  you
• 6:21
  having
• 6:21
  difficult
• 6:22
  periods
• 6:22
  in
• 6:22
  your
• 6:23
  teenage
• 6:23
  years
• 6:23
  are
• 6:24
  pretty
• 6:24
  good.
• 6:24
  You
• 6:25
  know,
• 6:25
  you're
• 6:25
  setting
• 6:25
  yourself
• 6:26
  up
• 6:26
  for
• 6:26
  an
• 6:27
  uncomfortable
• 6:27
  experience
• 6:28
  and
• 6:28
  it
• 6:28
  starts
• 6:29
  from
• 6:29
  day
• 6:29
  one.
• 6:29
  And
• 6:29
  I
• 6:29
  think
• 6:30
  a
• 6:30
  lot
• 6:30
  of
• 6:30
  people
• 6:30
  have
• 6:30
  this
• 6:30
  mindset
• 6:31
  of,
• 6:31
  oh,
• 6:31
  your
• 6:32
  kids
• 6:32
  can
• 6:32
  do
• 6:33
  whatever,
• 6:33
  they're
• 6:33
  resilient,
• 6:34
  everything's
• 6:34
  fine.
• 6:35
  But
• 6:35
  no,
• 6:35
  it,
• 6:35
  it
• 6:36
  adds
• 6:36
  up.
• 6:36
  Yeah,
• 6:37
  it
• 6:37
  ends
• 6:37
  up,
• 6:37
  you
• 6:38
  end
• 6:38
  up
• 6:38
  paying
• 6:38
  for
• 6:38
  it
• 6:38
  one
• 6:39
  way
• 6:39
  or
• 6:39
  another.
• 6:39
  It
• 6:39
  seems
• 6:40
  like,
• 6:41
  you
• 6:42
  know,
• 6:42
  and
• 6:42
  I
• 6:42
  think
• 6:42
  there's
• 6:42
  such
• 6:43
  an
• 6:43
  interesting
• 6:43
  argument
• 6:44
  too
• 6:44
  because
• 6:44
  I
• 6:44
  was
• 6:44
  talking
• 6:45
  to
• 6:46
  one
• 6:46
  of
• 6:47
  the
• 6:47
  doctors
• 6:47
  that
• 6:47
  came
• 6:47
  on
• 6:48
  my
• 6:48
  show
• 6:48
  previously
• 6:49
  and
• 6:49
  you
• 6:49
  know,
• 6:49
  she
• 6:50
  was
• 6:50
  saying,
• 6:50
  because
• 6:50
  she
• 6:51
  talks
• 6:51
  a
• 6:51
  lot
• 6:51
  about
• 6:51
  HRT
• 6:53
  in,
• 6:53
  about
• 6:53
  bioidentical
• 6:54
  hormones
• 6:55
  that,
• 6:55
  you
• 6:55
  know,
• 6:55
  women
• 6:55
  later
• 6:56
  in
• 6:56
  life
• 6:56
  take
• 6:57
  and
• 6:57
  she's
• 6:57
  like,
• 6:58
  you
• 6:58
  know,
• 6:58
  there's
• 6:58
  so
• 6:58
  much
• 6:59
  resistance
• 7:00
  to
• 7:00
  HRTs
• 7:01
  and
• 7:01
  there's,
• 7:02
  you
• 7:02
  know,
• 7:02
  bad
• 7:02
  press
• 7:02
  and
• 7:03
  everything
• 7:03
  else
• 7:04
  that
• 7:04
  it's
• 7:05
  interesting
• 7:05
  because
• 7:06
  the
• 7:06
  same
• 7:06
  isn't
• 7:07
  true
• 7:07
  for
• 7:07
  the
• 7:07
  pill
• 7:08
  because,
• 7:09
  you
• 7:09
  know,
• 7:09
  the
• 7:09
  pill
• 7:09
  is
• 7:09
  synthetic,
• 7:10
  that
• 7:10
  those
• 7:11
  are,
• 7:11
  those
• 7:11
  are
• 7:11
  not
• 7:11
  bioidentical
• 7:12
  hormones,
• 7:13
  you
• 7:13
  know,
• 7:13
  but
• 7:14
  yet
• 7:14
  they
• 7:14
  are
• 7:14
  still
• 7:14
  messing
• 7:15
  with
• 7:15
  your
• 7:15
  hormonal
• 7:16
  cycle,
• 7:16
  your
• 7:17
  periods.
• 7:18
  And
• 7:18
  it's
• 7:18
  just
• 7:18
  like,
• 7:18
  I
• 7:19
  don't
• 7:19
  know
• 7:19
  that
• 7:19
  people
• 7:20
  even
• 7:20
  realize
• 7:21
  that.
• 7:21
  Do
• 7:21
  you
• 7:21
  know
• 7:22
  what
• 7:22
  I
• 7:22
  mean?
• 7:23
  I
• 7:23
  do.
• 7:23
  There
• 7:24
  is
• 7:24
  such
• 7:24
  a
• 7:25
  huge
• 7:25
  disconnect.
• 7:26
  There
• 7:26
  are
• 7:26
  women
• 7:27
  who
• 7:28
  took
• 7:28
  the
• 7:28
  pill
• 7:28
  for
• 7:28
  a
• 7:28
  long
• 7:29
  time
• 7:29
  or
• 7:29
  are
• 7:29
  in
• 7:30
  perimenopause
• 7:30
  and
• 7:31
  are
• 7:31
  still
• 7:31
  on
• 7:32
  the
• 7:32
  pill,
• 7:32
  but
• 7:33
  they're
• 7:33
  afraid
• 7:33
  of
• 7:33
  taking
• 7:34
  hrt.
• 7:35
  It's
• 7:35
  just
• 7:36
  a
• 7:36
  huge
• 7:36
  disconnect
• 7:37
  in
• 7:37
  not
• 7:38
  understanding
• 7:38
  really
• 7:38
  the
• 7:39
  difference
• 7:39
  between
• 7:39
  synthetic
• 7:40
  and
• 7:40
  bioidentical.
• 7:42
  I
• 7:43
  don't
• 7:43
  even
• 7:43
  really
• 7:43
  think
• 7:44
  most
• 7:44
  women
• 7:45
  think
• 7:45
  of
• 7:46
  the
• 7:46
  pill
• 7:46
  so
• 7:47
  much
• 7:47
  as
• 7:47
  hormones
• 7:48
  more
• 7:48
  as
• 7:49
  they
• 7:49
  think
• 7:49
  it's
• 7:50
  regulating
• 7:50
  their
• 7:51
  menstrual
• 7:51
  cycle,
• 7:51
  when
• 7:52
  really
• 7:53
  it's
• 7:53
  just
• 7:53
  taking
• 7:53
  the
• 7:54
  menstrual
• 7:54
  cycle
• 7:54
  away.
• 7:55
  That
• 7:55
  bleed
• 7:56
  isn't
• 7:56
  there
• 7:57
  for
• 7:57
  any
• 7:57
  medical
• 7:57
  reason.
• 7:58
  It's
• 7:58
  not
• 7:58
  an
• 7:58
  actual,
• 7:59
  you
• 8:00
  know,
• 8:00
  menstruation.
• 8:00
  It's
• 8:01
  just
• 8:01
  a
• 8:02
  synthetically
• 8:03
  induced
• 8:03
  bleed
• 8:04
  really
• 8:04
  to
• 8:05
  make
• 8:05
  women
• 8:06
  just
• 8:06
  think
• 8:07
  that
• 8:07
  things
• 8:07
  are
• 8:07
  normal.
• 8:08
  And
• 8:09
  the
• 8:09
  way
• 8:10
  that
• 8:10
  when
• 8:10
  you
• 8:10
  go
• 8:11
  back
• 8:11
  in
• 8:11
  history
• 8:11
  and
• 8:11
  look,
• 8:12
  it
• 8:12
  was
• 8:12
  really
• 8:12
  because
• 8:13
  at
• 8:13
  the
• 8:13
  time
• 8:14
  birth
• 8:14
  control
• 8:14
  wasn't
• 8:15
  legal.
• 8:15
  And
• 8:16
  so
• 8:16
  the
• 8:16
  scientist
• 8:17
  that
• 8:17
  proposed
• 8:18
  it,
• 8:18
  it
• 8:18
  was
• 8:18
  like,
• 8:18
  okay,
• 8:19
  no,
• 8:19
  this
• 8:19
  is
• 8:19
  not
• 8:19
  contraception.
• 8:20
  This
• 8:20
  is
• 8:21
  just
• 8:21
  regulating
• 8:21
  menstrual
• 8:22
  cycles.
• 8:22
  So
• 8:23
  that's
• 8:23
  sort
• 8:23
  of
• 8:23
  where
• 8:23
  that
• 8:24
  story
• 8:24
  came
• 8:25
  from.
• 8:25
  And
• 8:25
  it
• 8:25
  just
• 8:25
  stuck
• 8:26
  around.
• 8:27
  And
• 8:27
  so
• 8:27
  people
• 8:27
  are
• 8:28
  not
• 8:28
  realizing
• 8:28
  that
• 8:28
  they're
• 8:29
  not
• 8:29
  actually
• 8:29
  having
• 8:30
  a
• 8:30
  menstrual
• 8:31
  cycle,
• 8:31
  that
• 8:31
  their
• 8:32
  hormones
• 8:32
  are
• 8:33
  completely
• 8:34
  being
• 8:34
  overridden
• 8:35
  by
• 8:35
  these
• 8:36
  synthetic
• 8:36
  hormones.
• 8:37
  And
• 8:38
  it
• 8:38
  affects
• 8:39
  you
• 8:39
  at
• 8:39
  every
• 8:40
  stage
• 8:40
  in
• 8:40
  life.
• 8:41
  And
• 8:41
  I'm
• 8:41
  not
• 8:41
  saying
• 8:42
  it's
• 8:42
  not
• 8:42
  right
• 8:43
  for
• 8:43
  everyone.
• 8:44
  There's,
• 8:45
  you
• 8:45
  know,
• 8:45
  this
• 8:45
  isn't
• 8:46
  a
• 8:46
  one
• 8:46
  size
• 8:46
  fits
• 8:47
  all.
• 8:47
  It's
• 8:47
  not
• 8:47
  black
• 8:47
  and
• 8:48
  white.
• 8:49
  It's
• 8:49
  every
• 8:49
  woman's
• 8:50
  choice.
• 8:51
  But
• 8:51
  I
• 8:51
  just
• 8:51
  want
• 8:52
  women
• 8:52
  to
• 8:52
  have
• 8:52
  some
• 8:53
  informed
• 8:53
  consent
• 8:54
  and
• 8:54
  know
• 8:54
  that,
• 8:55
  you
• 8:55
  know,
• 8:56
  if
• 8:56
  you're
• 8:56
  a
• 8:56
  teenager
• 8:57
  or
• 8:57
  woman
• 8:57
  in
• 8:57
  your
• 8:58
  20s,
• 8:58
  you're
• 8:59
  not
• 8:59
  getting
• 8:59
  that
• 8:59
  natural
• 9:00
  progesterone,
• 9:01
  you're
• 9:02
  not
• 9:02
  going
• 9:02
  to
• 9:02
  have
• 9:02
  optimal
• 9:03
  bone
• 9:04
  growth
• 9:04
  as
• 9:05
  a
• 9:05
  result.
• 9:05
  When,
• 9:05
  you
• 9:06
  know,
• 9:06
  we
• 9:06
  make
• 9:07
  the
• 9:08
  majority
• 9:08
  of
• 9:08
  our
• 9:08
  bone
• 9:09
  before
• 9:09
  the
• 9:09
  age
• 9:09
  of
• 9:10
  30,
• 9:10
  you're
• 9:10
  blocking
• 9:11
  that.
• 9:11
  So
• 9:11
  your
• 9:11
  bones
• 9:11
  aren't
• 9:12
  going
• 9:12
  to
• 9:12
  be
• 9:12
  as
• 9:12
  strong
• 9:12
  if
• 9:13
  you're
• 9:13
  in
• 9:13
  perimenopause.
• 9:15
  It's
• 9:15
  also
• 9:15
  affecting
• 9:16
  you
• 9:16
  because
• 9:16
  you're
• 9:16
  not
• 9:16
  going
• 9:17
  to
• 9:17
  know
• 9:17
  what
• 9:18
  stage
• 9:18
  you're
• 9:19
  in
• 9:19
  because
• 9:19
  you're
• 9:20
  getting
• 9:20
  a
• 9:20
  regular
• 9:21
  quote
• 9:21
  unquote
• 9:22
  cycle.
• 9:22
  So
• 9:23
  are
• 9:23
  you
• 9:23
  early,
• 9:25
  mid
• 9:25
  late?
• 9:25
  Are
• 9:25
  you
• 9:26
  menopausal?
• 9:26
  Because
• 9:27
  you're
• 9:27
  not
• 9:27
  going
• 9:27
  to
• 9:27
  know.
• 9:28
  And
• 9:29
  we,
• 9:29
  again
• 9:29
  with
• 9:29
  the
• 9:30
  bone
• 9:30
  health.
• 9:30
  We
• 9:30
  lose
• 9:31
  so
• 9:31
  much
• 9:31
  of
• 9:31
  our
• 9:31
  bone
• 9:32
  density
• 9:32
  in
• 9:33
  those
• 9:33
  five
• 9:34
  to
• 9:34
  seven
• 9:34
  years
• 9:35
  after
• 9:36
  menopause.
• 9:37
  And
• 9:37
  if
• 9:37
  you're
• 9:37
  on
• 9:38
  synthetic
• 9:38
  hormones,
• 9:39
  you're
• 9:39
  really
• 9:39
  missing
• 9:40
  out.
• 9:41
  Yes,
• 9:41
  absolutely.
• 9:42
  So
• 9:43
  what
• 9:43
  is
• 9:43
  the
• 9:44
  remedy
• 9:44
  to
• 9:44
  the
• 9:44
  pill
• 9:45
  hangover?
• 9:45
  What
• 9:45
  can
• 9:46
  we
• 9:46
  do
• 9:46
  to
• 9:47
  try
• 9:47
  to
• 9:47
  fix
• 9:48
  it?
• 9:48
  Depending
• 9:49
  on
• 9:49
  your
• 9:50
  genetics
• 9:50
  and
• 9:51
  your
• 9:51
  toxic
• 9:52
  exposures
• 9:52
  and
• 9:52
  your
• 9:53
  lifestyle,
• 9:53
  it's
• 9:53
  going
• 9:54
  to
• 9:54
  be
• 9:54
  different
• 9:55
  for
• 9:55
  every
• 9:55
  woman
• 9:56
  because
• 9:56
  there
• 9:57
  are
• 9:57
  so
• 9:57
  many
• 9:57
  ways
• 9:57
  that
• 9:58
  the
• 9:58
  pill
• 9:58
  affects
• 9:58
  you.
• 10:00
  So
• 10:00
  it
• 10:01
  could
• 10:01
  be,
• 10:02
  for
• 10:02
  some
• 10:02
  women,
• 10:03
  it's
• 10:03
  going
• 10:03
  to
• 10:03
  Be
• 10:03
  mostly
• 10:04
  a
• 10:04
  gut
• 10:04
  microbiome
• 10:05
  issue
• 10:05
  because
• 10:05
  it
• 10:06
  does
• 10:06
  decrease
• 10:07
  diversity
• 10:07
  and
• 10:07
  it
• 10:08
  increases
• 10:08
  intestinal
• 10:09
  permeability,
• 10:10
  which
• 10:11
  increases
• 10:12
  autoimmunity
• 10:13
  risks.
• 10:14
  It
• 10:14
  also
• 10:14
  affects
• 10:15
  the
• 10:15
  way
• 10:15
  we
• 10:16
  convert
• 10:16
  T4
• 10:17
  to
• 10:17
  T3.
• 10:17
  It
• 10:18
  interferes
• 10:18
  with
• 10:19
  the
• 10:19
  enzyme.
• 10:20
  So
• 10:20
  for
• 10:20
  a
• 10:20
  lot
• 10:21
  of
• 10:21
  women,
• 10:21
  it
• 10:21
  can
• 10:22
  result
• 10:22
  in
• 10:22
  thyroid
• 10:23
  issues.
• 10:24
  It
• 10:24
  also
• 10:25
  involves,
• 10:26
  you
• 10:26
  know,
• 10:26
  the
• 10:27
  way
• 10:27
  that
• 10:27
  we
• 10:27
  methylate
• 10:27
  because
• 10:28
  it
• 10:28
  depletes
• 10:28
  our
• 10:29
  B
• 10:29
  vitamins.
• 10:30
  So
• 10:30
  if
• 10:30
  you
• 10:30
  genetically
• 10:31
  already
• 10:32
  have
• 10:32
  a
• 10:32
  difficult
• 10:32
  time
• 10:32
  with
• 10:33
  methylation,
• 10:34
  that
• 10:34
  might
• 10:34
  be
• 10:34
  a
• 10:34
  key
• 10:34
  one
• 10:35
  for
• 10:35
  you.
• 10:36
  It
• 10:36
  affects
• 10:36
  and
• 10:37
  depletes
• 10:37
  our
• 10:37
  magnesium,
• 10:38
  zinc,
• 10:39
  selenium.
• 10:39
  So
• 10:39
  again,
• 10:40
  that's
• 10:40
  like
• 10:40
  very
• 10:41
  thyroid
• 10:42
  centric,
• 10:43
  as
• 10:43
  well
• 10:43
  as
• 10:43
  overall
• 10:44
  immunity.
• 10:45
  So
• 10:45
  it
• 10:46
  depends
• 10:46
  on
• 10:46
  the
• 10:46
  woman.
• 10:47
  But
• 10:47
  if
• 10:48
  there
• 10:48
  is
• 10:49
  someone
• 10:49
  who's
• 10:49
  on
• 10:49
  the
• 10:49
  pill
• 10:50
  and
• 10:50
  looking
• 10:50
  to
• 10:50
  get
• 10:51
  off,
• 10:51
  I
• 10:52
  say
• 10:52
  just
• 10:52
  make
• 10:53
  sure
• 10:53
  to
• 10:53
  support
• 10:54
  all
• 10:54
  of
• 10:54
  those
• 10:54
  things
• 10:55
  to
• 10:55
  make
• 10:55
  the
• 10:55
  transition
• 10:56
  as
• 10:57
  easy
• 10:57
  as
• 10:57
  possible.
• 10:58
  So
• 10:59
  take
• 10:59
  a
• 10:59
  probiotic,
• 11:00
  especially
• 11:01
  lacto
• 11:01
  and
• 11:01
  bifido.
• 11:02
  Those
• 11:02
  are
• 11:02
  the
• 11:02
  ones
• 11:02
  that
• 11:03
  really
• 11:03
  tends
• 11:03
  to
• 11:03
  deplete,
• 11:05
  you
• 11:05
  know,
• 11:05
  mucosal
• 11:06
  lining
• 11:06
  support,
• 11:07
  aloe,
• 11:08
  marshmallow,
• 11:08
  licorice,
• 11:09
  all
• 11:09
  of
• 11:09
  those
• 11:10
  things.
• 11:10
  And
• 11:11
  a
• 11:11
  methylated
• 11:12
  B
• 11:12
  vitamin
• 11:13
  complex.
• 11:14
  Zinc,
• 11:14
  magnesium,
• 11:15
  potentially
• 11:16
  iodine.
• 11:18
  Iodine
• 11:18
  can
• 11:18
  be
• 11:18
  controversial
• 11:19
  for
• 11:19
  some
• 11:19
  people
• 11:20
  with
• 11:20
  thyroid
• 11:20
  function,
• 11:22
  but
• 11:22
  I'm
• 11:22
  a
• 11:22
  fan
• 11:22
  of
• 11:23
  it.
• 11:23
  So
• 11:25
  it
• 11:25
  can
• 11:25
  affect
• 11:25
  each
• 11:25
  woman
• 11:26
  differently,
• 11:26
  but
• 11:27
  it
• 11:27
  does
• 11:27
  make
• 11:27
  the
• 11:27
  transition
• 11:28
  better
• 11:28
  if
• 11:28
  you're
• 11:29
  supporting
• 11:29
  those
• 11:29
  things.
• 11:30
  And
• 11:31
  again,
• 11:32
  it
• 11:33
  may
• 11:33
  not
• 11:33
  turn
• 11:33
  up
• 11:34
  right
• 11:34
  away
• 11:34
  for
• 11:34
  you.
• 11:35
  Someone
• 11:35
  might
• 11:35
  feel
• 11:35
  great,
• 11:36
  and
• 11:36
  then
• 11:37
  it's
• 11:37
  not
• 11:37
  until
• 11:38
  30
• 11:38
  days
• 11:38
  later,
• 11:39
  six
• 11:39
  months
• 11:40
  later.
• 11:41
  And
• 11:41
  what
• 11:41
  I
• 11:41
  see
• 11:41
  a
• 11:42
  lot
• 11:42
  in
• 11:42
  clients
• 11:43
  who
• 11:44
  are
• 11:44
  now
• 11:44
  in
• 11:44
  peri
• 11:45
  and
• 11:45
  menopause,
• 11:46
  if
• 11:47
  they
• 11:47
  were.
• 11:47
  The
• 11:47
  longer
• 11:48
  they
• 11:48
  were
• 11:48
  on
• 11:48
  the
• 11:48
  pill,
• 11:49
  the
• 11:49
  greater
• 11:50
  chance
• 11:50
  that
• 11:50
  they're
• 11:51
  going
• 11:51
  to
• 11:51
  have
• 11:51
  a
• 11:51
  progesterone
• 11:52
  intolerance.
• 11:54
  Wow.
• 11:55
  Because
• 11:55
  it
• 11:55
  messes
• 11:56
  up
• 11:56
  your
• 11:56
  receptor
• 11:57
  function.
• 11:57
  Okay.
• 11:59
  And
• 11:59
  so
• 12:00
  even
• 12:00
  if
• 12:00
  you
• 12:00
  quit
• 12:01
  taking
• 12:01
  the
• 12:01
  pill
• 12:02
  20
• 12:02
  years
• 12:02
  ago,
• 12:03
  it
• 12:03
  can
• 12:04
  still
• 12:04
  have
• 12:06
  a
• 12:06
  difficult
• 12:06
  time
• 12:06
  with
• 12:07
  progesterone.
• 12:07
  Meaning
• 12:08
  you
• 12:08
  think
• 12:09
  it's
• 12:09
  going
• 12:09
  to
• 12:09
  help
• 12:09
  you
• 12:09
  sleep
• 12:10
  or
• 12:10
  relax
• 12:10
  you,
• 12:11
  and
• 12:11
  instead
• 12:11
  you
• 12:12
  have
• 12:12
  more
• 12:12
  of
• 12:12
  an
• 12:12
  excitatory
• 12:13
  response
• 12:14
  and
• 12:14
  you
• 12:14
  have
• 12:14
  a
• 12:15
  hard
• 12:15
  time
• 12:15
  sleeping.
• 12:16
  Oh,
• 12:16
  well,
• 12:16
  we
• 12:16
  don't
• 12:17
  need
• 12:17
  that
• 12:17
  because
• 12:17
  sleep
• 12:18
  issues
• 12:18
  are
• 12:18
  already.
• 12:19
  Already
• 12:19
  a
• 12:20
  problem
• 12:20
  right
• 12:20
  now.
• 12:21
  You
• 12:21
  know
• 12:21
  that
• 12:22
  that
• 12:22
  would
• 12:22
  make
• 12:22
  it
• 12:23
  even
• 12:23
  worse.
• 12:24
  Yeah.
• 12:25
  And
• 12:25
  it's
• 12:25
  more
• 12:26
  common
• 12:27
  than
• 12:27
  you
• 12:27
  would
• 12:27
  think.
• 12:28
  And
• 12:28
  it's
• 12:28
  sad
• 12:28
  because
• 12:29
  women,
• 12:29
  once
• 12:30
  they
• 12:31
  understand
• 12:31
  the
• 12:32
  bioidentical
• 12:32
  hormones
• 12:33
  are
• 12:33
  beneficial
• 12:34
  and
• 12:34
  they've
• 12:34
  got
• 12:34
  a
• 12:35
  doctor
• 12:35
  who's
• 12:35
  on
• 12:35
  board,
• 12:36
  and
• 12:36
  they're
• 12:36
  like,
• 12:36
  okay,
• 12:37
  yes,
• 12:37
  I'm
• 12:37
  gonna
• 12:37
  take
• 12:37
  my
• 12:38
  progesterone,
• 12:38
  finally
• 12:39
  go
• 12:39
  to
• 12:39
  sleep,
• 12:39
  and
• 12:39
  then
• 12:40
  it's
• 12:40
  like,
• 12:40
  shoot.
• 12:41
  I
• 12:41
  was
• 12:41
  so
• 12:42
  excited
• 12:42
  for
• 12:42
  this.
• 12:42
  I
• 12:42
  did
• 12:43
  all
• 12:43
  the
• 12:43
  research,
• 12:43
  and
• 12:43
  it's
• 12:44
  not
• 12:44
  working
• 12:44
  out
• 12:44
  the
• 12:45
  way
• 12:45
  I
• 12:45
  had
• 12:45
  hoped.
• 12:46
  That's
• 12:46
  all
• 12:46
  you
• 12:47
  want
• 12:47
  is
• 12:47
  good
• 12:47
  sleep.
• 12:48
  When
• 12:48
  you're
• 12:48
  in
• 12:48
  perimenopause,
• 12:49
  it's
• 12:49
  like,
• 12:50
  just
• 12:50
  have
• 12:51
  that.
• 12:51
  That
• 12:51
  night
• 12:52
  of
• 12:52
  great
• 12:52
  refreshing.
• 12:53
  Like,
• 12:54
  you
• 12:54
  wake
• 12:54
  up
• 12:55
  rested.
• 12:55
  And
• 12:56
  to
• 12:56
  think
• 12:56
  to
• 12:56
  not
• 12:56
  have
• 12:57
  that
• 12:57
  is
• 12:58
  scary.
• 12:59
  Yeah,
• 13:00
  kind
• 13:00
  of
• 13:00
  what's
• 13:00
  really
• 13:01
  been
• 13:01
  captivating
• 13:02
  people
• 13:02
  is
• 13:03
  bone
• 13:03
  health.
• 13:04
  Because,
• 13:05
  you
• 13:05
  know,
• 13:06
  it
• 13:06
  is
• 13:06
  scary
• 13:06
  to
• 13:07
  think
• 13:07
  about
• 13:07
  losing
• 13:08
  our
• 13:08
  bone
• 13:08
  density,
• 13:09
  possibly
• 13:10
  breaking
• 13:10
  a
• 13:10
  bone
• 13:11
  at
• 13:11
  some
• 13:11
  point,
• 13:11
  you
• 13:12
  know?
• 13:12
  And
• 13:13
  so
• 13:13
  what
• 13:13
  do
• 13:13
  you
• 13:14
  think
• 13:15
  for
• 13:15
  women
• 13:15
  in
• 13:16
  midlife?
• 13:16
  Like,
• 13:17
  what
• 13:17
  can
• 13:17
  we
• 13:18
  do
• 13:18
  for
• 13:18
  our
• 13:18
  bone
• 13:18
  health?
• 13:19
  Like,
• 13:19
  what
• 13:19
  are
• 13:19
  some
• 13:19
  of
• 13:19
  the
• 13:20
  mistakes
• 13:20
  that
• 13:21
  you
• 13:21
  see
• 13:21
  women
• 13:22
  making
• 13:22
  as
• 13:23
  it
• 13:23
  relates
• 13:23
  to
• 13:23
  bone
• 13:24
  health?
• 13:24
  And
• 13:24
  what
• 13:24
  can
• 13:24
  we
• 13:24
  do
• 13:25
  to
• 13:25
  improve
• 13:26
  our
• 13:26
  bone
• 13:26
  health?
• 13:27
  Part
• 13:27
  of
• 13:28
  the
• 13:28
  issue
• 13:29
  is
• 13:29
  the
• 13:30
  fact
• 13:30
  that
• 13:30
  I
• 13:30
  think
• 13:31
  we're
• 13:31
  all
• 13:31
  about
• 13:32
  in
• 13:32
  our
• 13:33
  mid-40s
• 13:34
  to
• 13:34
  60,
• 13:34
  right?
• 13:35
  The
• 13:35
  Perry
• 13:36
  girl,
• 13:36
  40
• 13:36
  and
• 13:37
  a
• 13:37
  55ish.
• 13:38
  And
• 13:38
  so
• 13:39
  we
• 13:39
  all
• 13:39
  grew
• 13:39
  up
• 13:40
  in
• 13:40
  a
• 13:40
  time
• 13:40
  when
• 13:41
  waist
• 13:41
  models
• 13:42
  were
• 13:42
  very
• 13:42
  popular.
• 13:43
  It
• 13:43
  was
• 13:43
  just
• 13:43
  like,
• 13:44
  the
• 13:44
  thinner,
• 13:44
  the
• 13:45
  better
• 13:45
  we
• 13:46
  were.
• 13:46
  The
• 13:46
  aerobics
• 13:47
  culture.
• 13:48
  We
• 13:48
  were
• 13:48
  not
• 13:49
  raised
• 13:49
  to
• 13:49
  think
• 13:50
  about
• 13:50
  weights
• 13:51
  or
• 13:51
  protein.
• 13:51
  It
• 13:52
  was
• 13:52
  all
• 13:52
  about,
• 13:52
  like,
• 13:53
  low
• 13:54
  carb,
• 13:55
  you
• 13:55
  know,
• 13:55
  not
• 13:55
  low
• 13:56
  carb,
• 13:56
  low
• 13:56
  sugar
• 13:57
  and
• 13:58
  low
• 13:58
  fat.
• 13:59
  Everything
• 13:59
  was
• 13:59
  like
• 13:59
  low
• 13:59
  fat.
• 14:01
  Everyone
• 14:01
  was
• 14:02
  just
• 14:02
  as
• 14:02
  long
• 14:02
  as
• 14:02
  it
• 14:03
  was
• 14:03
  low
• 14:03
  fat,
• 14:04
  it
• 14:04
  didn't
• 14:04
  matter
• 14:04
  what
• 14:05
  it
• 14:05
  was.
• 14:05
  And
• 14:06
  it
• 14:06
  was
• 14:06
  like,
• 14:06
  just
• 14:06
  eat,
• 14:06
  you
• 14:07
  know,
• 14:07
  no
• 14:07
  more
• 14:07
  than
• 14:08
  1200
• 14:08
  calories
• 14:09
  and
• 14:09
  just
• 14:10
  aerobics
• 14:10
  your
• 14:10
  little
• 14:11
  butt
• 14:11
  off.
• 14:12
  So
• 14:12
  part
• 14:12
  of
• 14:13
  it
• 14:13
  is
• 14:13
  that
• 14:13
  our
• 14:13
  age
• 14:14
  group,
• 14:14
  we
• 14:14
  don't
• 14:14
  have
• 14:14
  great
• 14:15
  bones
• 14:15
  to
• 14:16
  begin
• 14:16
  with
• 14:16
  because
• 14:16
  we
• 14:16
  really
• 14:17
  wasted
• 14:17
  those
• 14:18
  years.
• 14:18
  A
• 14:18
  lot
• 14:18
  of
• 14:18
  us,
• 14:22
  those,
• 14:23
  you
• 14:23
  know,
• 14:24
  ages
• 14:24
  30
• 14:24
  and
• 14:25
  before,
• 14:25
  in
• 14:25
  our
• 14:25
  teenage
• 14:26
  years,
• 14:26
  those
• 14:26
  are
• 14:27
  prime
• 14:27
  bone
• 14:27
  building
• 14:28
  ages.
• 14:28
  And
• 14:29
  a
• 14:29
  lot
• 14:29
  of
• 14:29
  us
• 14:29
  were
• 14:29
  on
• 14:29
  the
• 14:29
  pill,
• 14:30
  so
• 14:30
  we're
• 14:30
  blocking,
• 14:31
  you
• 14:31
  know,
• 14:31
  the
• 14:31
  progesterone
• 14:32
  as
• 14:32
  well.
• 14:32
  A
• 14:32
  lot
• 14:32
  of
• 14:32
  us
• 14:33
  then
• 14:33
  went
• 14:33
  on
• 14:33
  to
• 14:33
  take
• 14:34
  SSRIs,
• 14:35
  which
• 14:35
  also
• 14:35
  affects
• 14:36
  bone
• 14:36
  health.
• 14:37
  Really,
• 14:38
  it
• 14:38
  does.
• 14:39
  And
• 14:39
  it's
• 14:40
  a
• 14:40
  common
• 14:40
  pattern
• 14:41
  to
• 14:41
  go
• 14:41
  from
• 14:41
  the
• 14:42
  pill
• 14:42
  to
• 14:42
  an
• 14:42
  ssri,
• 14:43
  because
• 14:44
  the
• 14:44
  pill
• 14:44
  is
• 14:44
  a
• 14:45
  synthetic
• 14:45
  progestin.
• 14:47
  And
• 14:47
  so
• 14:47
  it
• 14:47
  doesn't
• 14:48
  have
• 14:48
  the
• 14:48
  same
• 14:48
  benefits
• 14:49
  as
• 14:49
  a
• 14:49
  progesterone,
• 14:51
  and
• 14:51
  it
• 14:51
  leads
• 14:52
  to
• 14:52
  more
• 14:52
  anxiety
• 14:53
  and
• 14:53
  depression,
• 14:53
  whereas
• 14:54
  progesterone
• 14:55
  is
• 14:55
  very
• 14:55
  protective.
• 14:57
  So
• 14:57
  it's
• 14:57
  a
• 14:58
  common
• 14:58
  pattern,
• 14:59
  and
• 14:59
  it's
• 15:00
  a
• 15:00
  double
• 15:00
  whammy
• 15:00
  for
• 15:01
  a
• 15:01
  lot
• 15:01
  of
• 15:01
  women.
• 15:02
  I
• 15:03
  know
• 15:03
  that
• 15:03
  was
• 15:03
  definitely
• 15:03
  the
• 15:04
  pattern
• 15:04
  for
• 15:04
  me.
• 15:06
  Now
• 15:06
  I'm
• 15:07
  not
• 15:07
  on
• 15:07
  either,
• 15:07
  right?
• 15:07
  But
• 15:08
  I
• 15:08
  still.
• 15:08
  I
• 15:08
  am
• 15:09
  in
• 15:09
  an
• 15:09
  osteopenia
• 15:10
  range,
• 15:10
  although
• 15:10
  it's
• 15:11
  getting
• 15:11
  closer
• 15:11
  and
• 15:11
  closer
• 15:12
  to
• 15:12
  normal
• 15:13
  every
• 15:13
  time
• 15:13
  I
• 15:14
  check.
• 15:16
  But
• 15:16
  what
• 15:16
  we.
• 15:17
  The
• 15:17
  tough
• 15:17
  thing
• 15:17
  is
• 15:17
  is
• 15:18
  that
• 15:18
  we're
• 15:18
  at
• 15:18
  a
• 15:18
  stage
• 15:19
  now
• 15:19
  where,
• 15:19
  as
• 15:20
  estrogen's
• 15:20
  Declining.
• 15:21
  We're
• 15:22
  having
• 15:22
  a
• 15:22
  difficult
• 15:23
  time
• 15:24
  balancing
• 15:24
  insulin.
• 15:25
  Our
• 15:26
  body
• 15:26
  is
• 15:26
  naturally
• 15:27
  gaining
• 15:27
  more
• 15:27
  visceral
• 15:28
  fat
• 15:28
  and
• 15:29
  subcutaneous
• 15:30
  fat.
• 15:30
  And
• 15:31
  so
• 15:31
  our
• 15:31
  instincts
• 15:32
  is
• 15:32
  to
• 15:32
  go
• 15:33
  back
• 15:33
  to
• 15:33
  the
• 15:33
  time
• 15:34
  where
• 15:34
  we
• 15:35
  used
• 15:35
  to
• 15:35
  just
• 15:36
  over
• 15:36
  cardio
• 15:37
  and
• 15:37
  under
• 15:37
  eat.
• 15:38
  And
• 15:38
  then
• 15:39
  we're
• 15:39
  realizing,
• 15:39
  oh,
• 15:40
  wait,
• 15:40
  that's
• 15:40
  actually
• 15:41
  not
• 15:41
  working
• 15:42
  anymore.
• 15:43
  So
• 15:44
  that's
• 15:44
  another
• 15:44
  reason
• 15:45
  why
• 15:45
  the
• 15:45
  GLP1s
• 15:46
  are
• 15:47
  so
• 15:47
  attractive
• 15:48
  to
• 15:48
  a
• 15:48
  lot
• 15:48
  of
• 15:49
  women,
• 15:49
  because
• 15:49
  they're
• 15:49
  doing
• 15:50
  all
• 15:50
  of
• 15:50
  the
• 15:50
  things
• 15:50
  that
• 15:51
  used
• 15:51
  to
• 15:51
  work
• 15:52
  and
• 15:53
  they're
• 15:53
  getting
• 15:53
  desperate.
• 15:55
  But.
• 15:55
  And
• 15:56
  also,
• 15:56
  GLP1s
• 15:57
  can
• 15:58
  be
• 15:58
  great
• 15:59
  and
• 15:59
  they
• 15:59
  can
• 16:00
  have
• 16:00
  a
• 16:00
  lot
• 16:00
  of
• 16:00
  benefits
• 16:01
  as
• 16:01
  long
• 16:02
  as
• 16:02
  you're
• 16:02
  eating
• 16:03
  enough
• 16:03
  protein,
• 16:04
  which
• 16:04
  is
• 16:05
  hard
• 16:05
  if
• 16:05
  you
• 16:05
  don't
• 16:05
  have
• 16:06
  an
• 16:06
  appetite,
• 16:07
  because
• 16:07
  we
• 16:07
  really
• 16:07
  need
• 16:08
  to
• 16:08
  be
• 16:08
  doubling
• 16:08
  down
• 16:09
  on
• 16:10
  the
• 16:10
  protein,
• 16:11
  the
• 16:11
  weights.
• 16:12
  It's
• 16:13
  not
• 16:13
  just
• 16:14
  the
• 16:14
  calcium.
• 16:16
  It's
• 16:16
  more.
• 16:17
  It's
• 16:17
  more
• 16:18
  diet
• 16:18
  centric
• 16:19
  than
• 16:20
  supplement
• 16:21
  centric.
• 16:22
  It's
• 16:22
  also
• 16:22
  a
• 16:22
  time
• 16:23
  in
• 16:23
  our
• 16:23
  life
• 16:23
  where
• 16:23
  we're
• 16:23
  having
• 16:24
  nervous
• 16:24
  system
• 16:24
  regulation
• 16:25
  issues
• 16:25
  because
• 16:26
  as
• 16:26
  we
• 16:26
  lose
• 16:27
  estrogen,
• 16:27
  we're
• 16:28
  having
• 16:28
  a
• 16:28
  harder
• 16:29
  time
• 16:29
  balancing
• 16:29
  cortisol,
• 16:31
  balancing
• 16:31
  our,
• 16:32
  you
• 16:32
  know,
• 16:32
  trying
• 16:32
  to
• 16:33
  get
• 16:33
  into
• 16:33
  that
• 16:33
  parasympathetic
• 16:34
  is
• 16:34
  really
• 16:34
  hard
• 16:34
  when
• 16:35
  you
• 16:35
  don't
• 16:35
  have
• 16:35
  enough
• 16:35
  progesterone
• 16:36
  and
• 16:36
  all
• 16:37
  of
• 16:37
  that.
• 16:37
  That,
• 16:37
  that
• 16:38
  state
• 16:38
  of
• 16:38
  being
• 16:39
  is
• 16:39
  very
• 16:39
  catabolic.
• 16:40
  So
• 16:41
  it's
• 16:41
  breaking
• 16:41
  down
• 16:41
  our
• 16:41
  muscle,
• 16:42
  it's
• 16:42
  breaking
• 16:42
  down
• 16:43
  our
• 16:43
  bones.
• 16:44
  And
• 16:45
  so
• 16:45
  it's
• 16:46
  honestly
• 16:46
  the
• 16:46
  basics
• 16:47
  that
• 16:48
  are
• 16:48
  kind
• 16:48
  of
• 16:49
  a
• 16:49
  snooze
• 16:49
  that
• 16:50
  most
• 16:50
  people
• 16:50
  don't
• 16:50
  want
• 16:51
  it.
• 16:51
  It's
• 16:51
  like
• 16:51
  getting
• 16:52
  a
• 16:52
  good
• 16:52
  night's
• 16:52
  sleep.
• 16:54
  Trying
• 16:54
  to
• 16:54
  manage
• 16:55
  stress
• 16:55
  with,
• 16:56
  you
• 16:56
  know,
• 16:56
  without
• 16:57
  hormones
• 16:57
  is
• 16:57
  quite
• 16:58
  challenging.
• 16:59
  And
• 16:59
  eating
• 17:00
  enough
• 17:00
  protein,
• 17:01
  which
• 17:01
  is
• 17:02
  difficult,
• 17:02
  especially
• 17:03
  if
• 17:03
  you're
• 17:03
  not
• 17:03
  used
• 17:03
  to
• 17:04
  doing
• 17:04
  it.
• 17:04
  And
• 17:04
  also
• 17:04
  our
• 17:04
  digestion
• 17:05
  gets
• 17:05
  more
• 17:05
  sluggish.
• 17:07
  We
• 17:07
  lose
• 17:08
  hydrochloric
• 17:09
  acid,
• 17:09
  digestive
• 17:10
  enzymes.
• 17:11
  So
• 17:11
  a
• 17:11
  lot
• 17:11
  of
• 17:11
  women
• 17:11
  will
• 17:12
  have
• 17:12
  to
• 17:12
  supplement
• 17:12
  with
• 17:13
  digestive
• 17:13
  enzymes
• 17:14
  and
• 17:14
  HCl
• 17:15
  in
• 17:15
  order
• 17:15
  to
• 17:16
  deal
• 17:16
  with
• 17:16
  all
• 17:16
  of
• 17:16
  that
• 17:16
  protein.
• 17:18
  And
• 17:18
  I
• 17:18
  just
• 17:19
  say,
• 17:19
  eat
• 17:19
  protein
• 17:20
  like
• 17:20
  it's
• 17:20
  your
• 17:20
  job,
• 17:21
  because
• 17:21
  that's
• 17:22
  how
• 17:22
  it
• 17:22
  feels.
• 17:22
  It's
• 17:23
  like
• 17:23
  the
• 17:24
  first
• 17:24
  couple
• 17:24
  meals,
• 17:24
  I'm
• 17:25
  good.
• 17:25
  The
• 17:25
  last
• 17:26
  one,
• 17:26
  when
• 17:26
  I
• 17:26
  know
• 17:26
  I
• 17:26
  still
• 17:27
  need
• 17:27
  20
• 17:27
  or
• 17:27
  30
• 17:27
  grams
• 17:28
  and
• 17:28
  I'm
• 17:28
  not
• 17:28
  even
• 17:28
  hungry,
• 17:29
  I'm
• 17:29
  like,
• 17:29
  ugh.
• 17:31
  What
• 17:31
  do
• 17:31
  you,
• 17:31
  what
• 17:32
  do
• 17:32
  you
• 17:32
  do
• 17:32
  in
• 17:32
  that
• 17:33
  situation
• 17:33
  when
• 17:33
  you're
• 17:34
  so
• 17:34
  full
• 17:35
  and
• 17:35
  you're
• 17:35
  just
• 17:35
  like,
• 17:35
  oh,
• 17:36
  I
• 17:36
  don't
• 17:36
  even
• 17:36
  want
• 17:36
  to
• 17:36
  eat.
• 17:36
  But
• 17:37
  you,
• 17:37
  like,
• 17:37
  feel
• 17:37
  like
• 17:38
  you
• 17:38
  still
• 17:38
  need
• 17:38
  that
• 17:38
  protein,
• 17:39
  like,
• 17:39
  to
• 17:39
  get
• 17:39
  in?
• 17:40
  Do
• 17:40
  you
• 17:40
  have
• 17:40
  any
• 17:40
  tricks
• 17:41
  of
• 17:41
  how
• 17:41
  to,
• 17:41
  like,
• 17:42
  get
• 17:42
  that
• 17:42
  in?
• 17:43
  Yeah,
• 17:44
  for
• 17:44
  some
• 17:44
  women.
• 17:45
  So
• 17:45
  our
• 17:46
  cortisol
• 17:46
  tends
• 17:47
  to
• 17:47
  be
• 17:47
  high
• 17:47
  in
• 17:47
  the
• 17:48
  morning,
• 17:48
  especially
• 17:48
  during
• 17:49
  this
• 17:49
  time.
• 17:49
  And
• 17:50
  so
• 17:50
  you
• 17:50
  don't
• 17:50
  have
• 17:50
  the
• 17:51
  appetite
• 17:51
  when
• 17:51
  you
• 17:52
  wake
• 17:52
  up,
• 17:52
  if
• 17:52
  your
• 17:52
  cortisol
• 17:53
  is
• 17:53
  really
• 17:53
  high,
• 17:53
  you're
• 17:53
  just
• 17:53
  not
• 17:53
  hungry.
• 17:55
  So
• 17:55
  I
• 17:55
  like
• 17:55
  bone
• 17:56
  broth.
• 17:56
  I
• 17:57
  like
• 17:57
  to
• 17:57
  drink
• 17:57
  protein
• 17:58
  in
• 17:58
  the
• 17:58
  morning
• 17:59
  if
• 17:59
  you
• 18:00
  have
• 18:00
  a
• 18:00
  hard
• 18:00
  time,
• 18:00
  if
• 18:01
  you're
• 18:01
  just
• 18:01
  not
• 18:01
  hungry.
• 18:01
  So
• 18:02
  bone
• 18:02
  broth
• 18:02
  is
• 18:03
  great.
• 18:03
  Doing
• 18:04
  a
• 18:04
  smoothie
• 18:04
  with
• 18:05
  collagen,
• 18:07
  really
• 18:08
  trying
• 18:08
  to
• 18:08
  stay
• 18:08
  away
• 18:09
  from
• 18:09
  the
• 18:10
  coffee
• 18:10
  right
• 18:10
  away.
• 18:11
  I
• 18:11
  know
• 18:11
  that.
• 18:12
  So
• 18:12
  hard.
• 18:13
  It's
• 18:13
  so
• 18:13
  hard
• 18:14
  because
• 18:14
  it
• 18:15
  was
• 18:15
  my
• 18:15
  favorite
• 18:16
  part
• 18:16
  of
• 18:16
  my
• 18:16
  morning
• 18:17
  for
• 18:17
  so
• 18:17
  many
• 18:17
  years
• 18:18
  was
• 18:18
  like,
• 18:18
  coffee.
• 18:19
  First
• 18:19
  thing,
• 18:19
  I'm
• 18:20
  happy.
• 18:20
  Totally,
• 18:21
  totally.
• 18:21
  Now
• 18:22
  I
• 18:22
  have
• 18:22
  to
• 18:22
  have
• 18:23
  my
• 18:23
  smoothie
• 18:23
  first,
• 18:23
  I
• 18:24
  have
• 18:24
  to
• 18:24
  have
• 18:24
  bone
• 18:24
  broth
• 18:24
  first,
• 18:25
  and
• 18:25
  then
• 18:25
  I'm
• 18:25
  fine.
• 18:26
  Then
• 18:26
  I
• 18:26
  can
• 18:26
  have
• 18:26
  a
• 18:26
  cup
• 18:26
  of
• 18:26
  coffee
• 18:27
  and
• 18:27
  it
• 18:28
  feels
• 18:28
  fine.
• 18:28
  I'm
• 18:29
  not
• 18:29
  jittery,
• 18:30
  it's
• 18:30
  not
• 18:31
  too
• 18:31
  much.
• 18:31
  But
• 18:31
  I
• 18:31
  definitely
• 18:32
  have
• 18:32
  to
• 18:32
  get
• 18:32
  food
• 18:33
  in
• 18:33
  my
• 18:33
  system
• 18:34
  to
• 18:34
  help
• 18:34
  balance
• 18:35
  that
• 18:36
  response.
• 18:37
  And
• 18:37
  it
• 18:37
  creates
• 18:38
  such
• 18:38
  a
• 18:38
  huge
• 18:38
  glucose
• 18:39
  response
• 18:40
  too.
• 18:40
  I
• 18:41
  mean,
• 18:41
  I
• 18:41
  love
• 18:42
  continuous
• 18:42
  glucose
• 18:43
  monitors
• 18:44
  during
• 18:45
  perimenopause,
• 18:46
  especially
• 18:47
  just,
• 18:47
  just
• 18:48
  two
• 18:48
  weeks
• 18:48
  every,
• 18:49
  maybe
• 18:49
  twice
• 18:50
  a
• 18:50
  year.
• 18:51
  It
• 18:52
  doesn't
• 18:52
  have
• 18:52
  to
• 18:52
  be
• 18:52
  a
• 18:52
  crazy
• 18:53
  amount,
• 18:54
  but
• 18:54
  what
• 18:55
  you'll
• 18:55
  see
• 18:55
  is
• 18:56
  that
• 18:57
  sort
• 18:57
  of
• 18:57
  early
• 18:57
  perimenopause,
• 18:58
  you
• 18:58
  wear
• 18:58
  a
• 18:59
  glucose
• 18:59
  monitor,
• 18:59
  everything
• 18:59
  looks
• 19:00
  good,
• 19:00
  you're
• 19:00
  having
• 19:00
  a
• 19:00
  normal
• 19:01
  response.
• 19:02
  You
• 19:02
  can
• 19:02
  even
• 19:02
  have
• 19:02
  that
• 19:03
  morning
• 19:03
  cup
• 19:03
  of
• 19:04
  coffee
• 19:04
  on
• 19:04
  an
• 19:04
  empty
• 19:04
  stomach,
• 19:05
  fine.
• 19:06
  But
• 19:06
  once
• 19:07
  you
• 19:07
  start
• 19:07
  getting
• 19:08
  into
• 19:08
  the
• 19:08
  realm
• 19:08
  of
• 19:09
  needing
• 19:09
  hrt,
• 19:10
  it's
• 19:10
  one
• 19:11
  of
• 19:11
  the
• 19:11
  quickest
• 19:12
  indicators
• 19:13
  is
• 19:13
  you'll
• 19:14
  see
• 19:14
  your
• 19:14
  glucose
• 19:15
  response
• 19:15
  change
• 19:16
  in
• 19:17
  a
• 19:17
  way
• 19:17
  that
• 19:18
  it
• 19:18
  didn't
• 19:18
  before.
• 19:19
  So
• 19:19
  all
• 19:19
  of
• 19:19
  a
• 19:20
  sudden,
• 19:20
  that
• 19:21
  morning
• 19:21
  coffee
• 19:21
  makes
• 19:22
  your
• 19:22
  glucose
• 19:23
  spike,
• 19:24
  even
• 19:24
  though
• 19:25
  it's
• 19:25
  not
• 19:25
  sweet.
• 19:25
  Like
• 19:26
  if,
• 19:26
  even
• 19:26
  if
• 19:26
  it's
• 19:26
  like
• 19:27
  black.
• 19:27
  Coffee,
• 19:27
  it's
• 19:28
  because
• 19:28
  your
• 19:28
  cortisol
• 19:29
  skyrockets.
• 19:31
  And
• 19:31
  so
• 19:31
  when
• 19:32
  cortisol
• 19:32
  skyrockets,
• 19:33
  you
• 19:33
  release
• 19:33
  insulin.
• 19:35
  And
• 19:35
  so
• 19:36
  it's.
• 19:37
  It's
• 19:37
  crazy.
• 19:38
  It's
• 19:38
  also,
• 19:39
  if
• 19:39
  you,
• 19:40
  let's
• 19:40
  say,
• 19:40
  have
• 19:40
  an
• 19:41
  argument
• 19:41
  with
• 19:42
  someone,
• 19:42
  the
• 19:43
  husband,
• 19:45
  let's
• 19:45
  just
• 19:45
  say
• 19:47
  he's
• 19:47
  the
• 19:48
  character.
• 19:53
  Not
• 19:53
  that
• 19:53
  that
• 19:54
  happens
• 19:54
  to
• 19:54
  me,
• 19:55
  but
• 19:56
  for
• 19:56
  someone
• 19:56
  else,
• 20:00
  you'll
• 20:00
  see
• 20:00
  that
• 20:00
  maybe
• 20:01
  10
• 20:01
  years
• 20:01
  earlier,
• 20:02
  your
• 20:02
  glucose
• 20:03
  stays
• 20:03
  the
• 20:03
  same.
• 20:04
  But
• 20:05
  now
• 20:06
  let's
• 20:07
  say
• 20:07
  you
• 20:07
  had
• 20:09
  chicken
• 20:10
  and
• 20:10
  a
• 20:10
  salad,
• 20:10
  you'd
• 20:11
  have
• 20:11
  protein,
• 20:11
  you've
• 20:12
  had
• 20:12
  fiber,
• 20:12
  you've
• 20:12
  had
• 20:12
  fat,
• 20:13
  but
• 20:13
  you
• 20:13
  get
• 20:14
  in
• 20:14
  an
• 20:14
  argument,
• 20:14
  your
• 20:14
  glucose
• 20:15
  skyrockets.
• 20:17
  So
• 20:17
  that
• 20:17
  will
• 20:17
  often
• 20:18
  happen
• 20:18
  because
• 20:19
  our
• 20:20
  ability
• 20:21
  to
• 20:21
  have
• 20:22
  resiliency
• 20:23
  emotionally
• 20:24
  just
• 20:24
  completely
• 20:24
  declines,
• 20:25
  so
• 20:26
  that
• 20:26
  increases
• 20:27
  glucose
• 20:27
  and
• 20:28
  cortisol.
• 20:28
  So
• 20:28
  we,
• 20:29
  we
• 20:29
  have
• 20:29
  a
• 20:29
  lot
• 20:30
  working
• 20:30
  against
• 20:31
  us,
• 20:31
  but
• 20:31
  at
• 20:31
  the
• 20:31
  same
• 20:31
  time,
• 20:32
  there's
• 20:32
  a
• 20:32
  lot
• 20:32
  of
• 20:33
  tools,
• 20:33
  as
• 20:34
  long
• 20:34
  as
• 20:34
  we're
• 20:34
  aware.
• 20:35
  So
• 20:35
  I.
• 20:35
  I
• 20:36
  don't
• 20:36
  like
• 20:36
  to
• 20:36
  be
• 20:36
  obsessive
• 20:37
  over
• 20:39
  labs
• 20:39
  and
• 20:39
  glucose
• 20:40
  monitors
• 20:40
  and
• 20:41
  aura
• 20:41
  rings
• 20:42
  and
• 20:42
  sleep
• 20:42
  scores
• 20:42
  and
• 20:43
  the
• 20:43
  whole
• 20:43
  thing,
• 20:43
  because
• 20:43
  it
• 20:44
  can
• 20:44
  make
• 20:44
  you
• 20:44
  crazy.
• 20:45
  But
• 20:45
  I
• 20:45
  like
• 20:46
  them
• 20:46
  for
• 20:46
  just
• 20:47
  check
• 20:48
  ins
• 20:48
  every
• 20:48
  once
• 20:48
  in
• 20:49
  a
• 20:49
  while
• 20:50
  because
• 20:50
  things
• 20:51
  change
• 20:52
  overnight
• 20:52
  in
• 20:53
  perimenopause
• 20:53
  where
• 20:54
  you
• 20:54
  could
• 20:54
  be
• 20:55
  everything
• 20:55
  could
• 20:55
  look
• 20:55
  great,
• 20:56
  and
• 20:56
  then
• 20:56
  six
• 20:57
  months
• 20:57
  later
• 20:58
  you're
• 20:58
  done
• 20:59
  for.
• 20:59
  I
• 20:59
  just,
• 21:00
  I
• 21:00
  just
• 21:00
  know
• 21:00
  a
• 21:00
  lot
• 21:01
  of
• 21:01
  women
• 21:01
  who
• 21:01
  are
• 21:01
  in
• 21:02
  their
• 21:02
  early
• 21:02
  40s
• 21:03
  and
• 21:03
  still
• 21:03
  like
• 21:04
  that.
• 21:05
  I
• 21:05
  am
• 21:05
  nowhere
• 21:05
  near
• 21:06
  that.
• 21:06
  I'm
• 21:06
  not
• 21:06
  even
• 21:06
  thinking
• 21:06
  about
• 21:07
  that.
• 21:07
  And
• 21:07
  I'm
• 21:07
  like,
• 21:07
  you
• 21:07
  know
• 21:08
  what?
• 21:08
  Let's
• 21:08
  just
• 21:09
  get
• 21:09
  it
• 21:09
  based.
• 21:10
  I'm
• 21:10
  good,
• 21:10
  I'm
• 21:11
  good.
• 21:11
  And
• 21:11
  then
• 21:11
  all
• 21:11
  of
• 21:11
  a
• 21:11
  sudden
• 21:12
  they're
• 21:12
  like,
• 21:12
  I
• 21:12
  don't
• 21:12
  know
• 21:13
  what
• 21:13
  happened.
• 21:13
  But
• 21:14
  literally
• 21:14
  overnight,
• 21:14
  I
• 21:15
  completely.
• 21:16
  I'm
• 21:16
  a
• 21:16
  different
• 21:16
  woman.
• 21:17
  Yes,
• 21:18
  it's
• 21:18
  true.
• 21:18
  And
• 21:19
  you
• 21:19
  know,
• 21:19
  speaking
• 21:19
  of
• 21:19
  labs,
• 21:20
  because
• 21:21
  oftentimes
• 21:21
  you'll
• 21:22
  go
• 21:22
  to
• 21:22
  your
• 21:22
  doctor,
• 21:23
  they'll
• 21:23
  do
• 21:23
  like,
• 21:24
  you
• 21:24
  know,
• 21:24
  the
• 21:24
  list
• 21:25
  of
• 21:25
  tests
• 21:25
  that
• 21:25
  you're
• 21:25
  supposed
• 21:26
  to
• 21:26
  have.
• 21:26
  Things
• 21:27
  come
• 21:27
  back,
• 21:28
  you
• 21:28
  know,
• 21:28
  within
• 21:29
  normal
• 21:29
  limits,
• 21:30
  they
• 21:30
  say,
• 21:31
  but
• 21:32
  you
• 21:32
  still
• 21:32
  feel
• 21:32
  like
• 21:33
  crap,
• 21:33
  like
• 21:33
  you
• 21:34
  feel
• 21:34
  like
• 21:34
  something
• 21:34
  is
• 21:34
  off.
• 21:35
  So
• 21:36
  what
• 21:36
  is
• 21:36
  the
• 21:37
  difference
• 21:37
  between,
• 21:37
  let's
• 21:38
  say
• 21:38
  something
• 21:38
  in
• 21:39
  within
• 21:39
  normal
• 21:39
  limits
• 21:40
  and
• 21:41
  something
• 21:41
  being
• 21:41
  in
• 21:41
  optimal,
• 21:42
  like
• 21:42
  in
• 21:43
  an
• 21:43
  optimal
• 21:43
  range.
• 21:44
  And
• 21:44
  also,
• 21:45
  what
• 21:45
  are
• 21:45
  our
• 21:45
  traditional
• 21:46
  doctors
• 21:47
  missing
• 21:47
  when
• 21:47
  we're
• 21:48
  testing
• 21:49
  as
• 21:49
  opposed
• 21:49
  to
• 21:49
  functional
• 21:50
  medicine?
• 21:51
  And
• 21:51
  what
• 21:51
  should
• 21:51
  we
• 21:52
  be
• 21:52
  asking
• 21:52
  for?
• 21:53
  I
• 21:53
  think,
• 21:54
  well,
• 21:54
  first
• 21:54
  of
• 21:54
  all,
• 21:54
  I
• 21:55
  mean,
• 21:55
  functional
• 21:55
  tests
• 21:56
  can
• 21:56
  get
• 21:57
  pricey,
• 21:57
  but
• 21:57
  there's
• 21:57
  a
• 21:58
  lot
• 21:58
  that
• 21:58
  we
• 21:58
  can
• 21:58
  do
• 21:59
  with
• 21:59
  regular,
• 22:00
  just
• 22:00
  a
• 22:01
  CBC
• 22:01
  with
• 22:02
  differential,
• 22:02
  that's
• 22:03
  covered
• 22:03
  under
• 22:03
  insurance.
• 22:04
  Pretty
• 22:04
  traditional.
• 22:05
  You
• 22:06
  do
• 22:06
  have
• 22:06
  to
• 22:06
  ask
• 22:06
  for
• 22:07
  differential,
• 22:07
  not
• 22:08
  just
• 22:08
  a
• 22:08
  cdc
• 22:10
  and
• 22:10
  you
• 22:11
  can
• 22:11
  look
• 22:11
  at
• 22:11
  those
• 22:12
  and
• 22:13
  traditional
• 22:13
  or
• 22:14
  optimal
• 22:14
  ranges.
• 22:15
  So
• 22:15
  optimal
• 22:15
  ranges
• 22:16
  tend
• 22:16
  to
• 22:16
  be
• 22:16
  a
• 22:16
  little
• 22:16
  tighter.
• 22:18
  In
• 22:19
  traditional
• 22:19
  ranges.
• 22:20
  You
• 22:21
  could
• 22:21
  be
• 22:21
  pre
• 22:22
  diabetic
• 22:23
  very
• 22:24
  deep
• 22:24
  into
• 22:24
  what
• 22:24
  I
• 22:24
  would
• 22:25
  consider
• 22:25
  already
• 22:26
  diabetes.
• 22:27
  You
• 22:27
  know,
• 22:27
  it
• 22:28
  really
• 22:28
  lets
• 22:28
  things
• 22:29
  stretch
• 22:29
  for
• 22:29
  a
• 22:30
  long
• 22:30
  time.
• 22:30
  And
• 22:30
  most
• 22:31
  doctors,
• 22:32
  traditional
• 22:32
  medicine,
• 22:33
  won't
• 22:33
  even
• 22:33
  give
• 22:34
  their
• 22:34
  patients
• 22:35
  a
• 22:35
  heads
• 22:35
  up.
• 22:35
  They
• 22:36
  won't
• 22:36
  say
• 22:36
  you're
• 22:37
  pre
• 22:37
  diabetic
• 22:37
  or
• 22:38
  things
• 22:38
  are
• 22:38
  creeping
• 22:38
  up.
• 22:38
  They'll
• 22:39
  say
• 22:39
  everything's
• 22:39
  normal.
• 22:40
  But
• 22:40
  then
• 22:40
  one
• 22:40
  day
• 22:40
  you
• 22:41
  go
• 22:41
  back
• 22:41
  and
• 22:41
  you
• 22:41
  have
• 22:42
  diabetes.
• 22:43
  So
• 22:44
  no
• 22:44
  real
• 22:44
  explanation.
• 22:46
  I
• 22:46
  think
• 22:47
  really
• 22:47
  need
• 22:48
  to
• 22:48
  get
• 22:49
  copies
• 22:49
  of
• 22:50
  their
• 22:50
  labs.
• 22:51
  Most
• 22:51
  of
• 22:52
  the
• 22:52
  time,
• 22:52
  especially
• 22:53
  with
• 22:53
  traditional
• 22:53
  doctors,
• 22:54
  you'll
• 22:55
  just
• 22:55
  be
• 22:55
  told
• 22:55
  everything's
• 22:56
  normal,
• 22:56
  but
• 22:56
  you
• 22:57
  don't
• 22:57
  take
• 22:57
  a
• 22:57
  look
• 22:57
  at
• 22:58
  it.
• 22:59
  And
• 22:59
  if
• 22:59
  you're
• 22:59
  not
• 23:00
  in
• 23:00
  a
• 23:00
  position
• 23:01
  of
• 23:01
  paying
• 23:02
  a
• 23:02
  coach
• 23:03
  or
• 23:03
  someone
• 23:04
  who's
• 23:04
  more
• 23:04
  functional
• 23:04
  to
• 23:05
  look
• 23:05
  over
• 23:05
  things,
• 23:06
  I
• 23:06
  mean,
• 23:06
  I'm
• 23:07
  not
• 23:07
  saying
• 23:07
  that
• 23:07
  Dr.
• 23:08
  Internet
• 23:08
  is
• 23:09
  the
• 23:09
  best
• 23:09
  for
• 23:10
  everything,
• 23:10
  but
• 23:10
  tools
• 23:11
  have
• 23:11
  gotten
• 23:11
  pretty
• 23:11
  advanced
• 23:12
  and
• 23:12
  there's
• 23:12
  a
• 23:12
  lot
• 23:12
  of
• 23:12
  Amazing
• 23:13
  online
• 23:14
  charts
• 23:14
  and
• 23:15
  references
• 23:16
  that
• 23:17
  you
• 23:17
  can
• 23:17
  at
• 23:17
  least
• 23:17
  get
• 23:18
  a
• 23:18
  bit
• 23:18
  of
• 23:18
  an
• 23:19
  insight
• 23:19
  into
• 23:21
  just
• 23:21
  to
• 23:22
  look
• 23:22
  at
• 23:22
  some
• 23:22
  tighter
• 23:22
  ranges.
• 23:23
  It's
• 23:24
  nice
• 23:24
  if
• 23:24
  you
• 23:25
  can
• 23:25
  look
• 23:25
  at
• 23:25
  your
• 23:25
  gut
• 23:26
  microbiome,
• 23:26
  but
• 23:26
  let's
• 23:27
  face
• 23:27
  it,
• 23:27
  those
• 23:27
  are
• 23:28
  400,
• 23:29
  $500
• 23:30
  tests.
• 23:30
  And
• 23:31
  at
• 23:31
  the
• 23:31
  end
• 23:31
  of
• 23:31
  the
• 23:31
  day,
• 23:32
  you
• 23:32
  know,
• 23:33
  most,
• 23:33
  most
• 23:34
  women
• 23:34
  need
• 23:34
  to
• 23:35
  work
• 23:35
  a
• 23:35
  bit
• 23:35
  on
• 23:36
  their
• 23:36
  gut
• 23:36
  health.
• 23:36
  And
• 23:36
  what
• 23:37
  does
• 23:37
  that
• 23:37
  look
• 23:37
  like?
• 23:38
  It
• 23:38
  looks
• 23:38
  like
• 23:38
  not
• 23:38
  eating
• 23:39
  ultra
• 23:40
  processed
• 23:40
  foods,
• 23:41
  having
• 23:42
  fiber
• 23:42
  at
• 23:42
  each
• 23:42
  meal.
• 23:43
  So
• 23:43
  again,
• 23:44
  if,
• 23:44
  if
• 23:44
  you
• 23:45
  want
• 23:45
  to
• 23:45
  pay,
• 23:46
  it's
• 23:46
  fine.
• 23:47
  But
• 23:47
  if
• 23:47
  we
• 23:47
  stick
• 23:48
  to
• 23:48
  the
• 23:48
  basics
• 23:48
  and
• 23:49
  what
• 23:49
  has
• 23:49
  traditionally
• 23:50
  worked,
• 23:51
  you
• 23:51
  know,
• 23:51
  everything
• 23:51
  in
• 23:52
  moderation,
• 23:53
  not
• 23:53
  to
• 23:53
  get
• 23:53
  too
• 23:54
  crazy,
• 23:56
  those
• 23:56
  are,
• 23:57
  those
• 23:57
  are
• 23:57
  the
• 23:57
  things
• 23:57
  that
• 23:58
  work.
• 23:58
  I
• 23:58
  mean,
• 23:58
  I,
• 23:58
  I
• 23:59
  do
• 23:59
  think
• 24:00
  traditional
• 24:00
  doctors
• 24:01
  have
• 24:01
  to
• 24:01
  be
• 24:01
  pushed
• 24:02
  a
• 24:02
  bit
• 24:02
  on
• 24:03
  things
• 24:03
  like,
• 24:04
  like
• 24:04
  I
• 24:04
  said,
• 24:04
  get
• 24:05
  making
• 24:05
  sure
• 24:05
  it's
• 24:06
  a
• 24:06
  differential
• 24:07
  CBC
• 24:07
  so
• 24:08
  you
• 24:08
  have
• 24:08
  more
• 24:08
  information.
• 24:11
  A
• 24:11
  basic
• 24:11
  CVC
• 24:12
  can
• 24:12
  tell
• 24:12
  you
• 24:12
  if
• 24:12
  you
• 24:13
  have
• 24:13
  a
• 24:13
  parasitic
• 24:14
  infection,
• 24:14
  if
• 24:15
  your
• 24:15
  basophils
• 24:16
  and
• 24:16
  eosanaphils
• 24:17
  are
• 24:17
  elevated.
• 24:18
  And
• 24:18
  most
• 24:18
  traditional
• 24:19
  doctors
• 24:19
  aren't
• 24:19
  even
• 24:20
  trained
• 24:20
  to
• 24:20
  look
• 24:21
  at
• 24:21
  that.
• 24:23
  So
• 24:23
  that's
• 24:23
  something
• 24:23
  that
• 24:24
  a
• 24:24
  woman
• 24:24
  needs
• 24:24
  to
• 24:25
  take
• 24:25
  some
• 24:25
  ownership
• 24:25
  over
• 24:26
  and
• 24:26
  go
• 24:26
  through.
• 24:27
  Even
• 24:27
  though,
• 24:27
  you
• 24:28
  know,
• 24:28
  I
• 24:28
  go
• 24:28
  through
• 24:28
  and
• 24:28
  just
• 24:29
  what
• 24:29
  is
• 24:29
  that,
• 24:29
  what
• 24:30
  does
• 24:30
  that
• 24:30
  mean?
• 24:30
  Neutrophils,
• 24:31
  I
• 24:31
  don't
• 24:32
  know
• 24:32
  what
• 24:32
  is
• 24:32
  lymphocytes?
• 24:33
  What
• 24:33
  is
• 24:34
  that
• 24:34
  level?
• 24:34
  Really
• 24:35
  normal.
• 24:35
  And,
• 24:35
  and
• 24:36
  you
• 24:36
  can
• 24:36
  really,
• 24:36
  you
• 24:37
  know,
• 24:37
  map
• 24:37
  your
• 24:37
  way
• 24:37
  through
• 24:38
  it
• 24:38
  if
• 24:38
  you're
• 24:38
  not
• 24:38
  in
• 24:38
  a
• 24:39
  position
• 24:39
  to
• 24:40
  have
• 24:40
  someone
• 24:40
  do
• 24:40
  it
• 24:41
  for
• 24:41
  you.
• 24:41
  A
• 24:42
  lot
• 24:42
  of
• 24:42
  physicians
• 24:42
  need
• 24:43
  to
• 24:43
  be
• 24:43
  pushed
• 24:43
  on
• 24:44
  having
• 24:44
  a
• 24:44
  really
• 24:45
  thorough
• 24:45
  thyroid
• 24:46
  panel.
• 24:47
  I
• 24:47
  mean,
• 24:47
  just
• 24:47
  so
• 24:48
  many
• 24:48
  times
• 24:48
  women
• 24:49
  will
• 24:49
  say,
• 24:49
  yeah,
• 24:49
  I've
• 24:50
  had
• 24:50
  a
• 24:50
  thyroid
• 24:50
  panel
• 24:51
  and
• 24:51
  when
• 24:51
  I
• 24:51
  look
• 24:52
  only
• 24:53
  TSH.
• 24:54
  So
• 24:55
  it
• 24:55
  doesn't
• 24:55
  tell
• 24:55
  me
• 24:56
  T4,
• 24:56
  doesn't
• 24:57
  tell
• 24:57
  me
• 24:57
  T3
• 24:58
  or
• 24:58
  reverse
• 24:58
  T3,
• 24:59
  which
• 24:59
  would
• 24:59
  give
• 24:59
  me
• 25:00
  an
• 25:00
  indication
• 25:00
  of
• 25:01
  how
• 25:01
  they're
• 25:01
  actually
• 25:02
  functioning,
• 25:03
  how
• 25:03
  their
• 25:03
  gut
• 25:03
  is
• 25:04
  functioning.
• 25:06
  TSH
• 25:07
  is
• 25:07
  just
• 25:07
  a
• 25:07
  pituitary
• 25:08
  hormone.
• 25:09
  It's
• 25:09
  not
• 25:09
  actually
• 25:09
  letting
• 25:10
  me
• 25:10
  know
• 25:10
  what's
• 25:10
  going
• 25:10
  on
• 25:11
  with
• 25:11
  your
• 25:11
  thyroid.
• 25:11
  So.
• 25:12
  And
• 25:13
  a
• 25:13
  fractionated
• 25:14
  lipid
• 25:15
  panel.
• 25:15
  So
• 25:15
  a
• 25:16
  lot
• 25:16
  of
• 25:16
  traditional
• 25:17
  physicians
• 25:18
  will
• 25:18
  just
• 25:18
  want
• 25:19
  to
• 25:19
  tell
• 25:19
  you
• 25:19
  your
• 25:19
  HDL
• 25:20
  LDL
• 25:20
  total
• 25:20
  cholesterol
• 25:22
  and
• 25:22
  kind
• 25:22
  of
• 25:22
  end
• 25:22
  a
• 25:22
  story.
• 25:23
  They're
• 25:23
  not
• 25:23
  looking
• 25:24
  into
• 25:24
  LP
• 25:25
  apob,
• 25:27
  so
• 25:27
  it's
• 25:27
  important
• 25:28
  to
• 25:28
  get
• 25:29
  a
• 25:29
  fractionated
• 25:30
  lipid
• 25:30
  panel.
• 25:31
  We
• 25:31
  want
• 25:31
  to
• 25:31
  see
• 25:31
  if
• 25:31
  your
• 25:32
  cholesterol
• 25:32
  is
• 25:33
  being
• 25:33
  oxidized
• 25:34
  or
• 25:34
  not
• 25:36
  because
• 25:36
  it's
• 25:36
  not
• 25:36
  necessarily
• 25:37
  that
• 25:37
  high.
• 25:38
  Cholesterol
• 25:38
  is
• 25:39
  the
• 25:39
  issue.
• 25:39
  And
• 25:40
  in
• 25:40
  fact,
• 25:40
  active
• 25:41
  vegetarians,
• 25:41
  pretty
• 25:42
  much
• 25:42
  all
• 25:42
  of
• 25:42
  them
• 25:42
  have
• 25:43
  elevated
• 25:43
  cholesterol.
• 25:44
  It
• 25:44
  can
• 25:44
  be
• 25:44
  very
• 25:44
  protective.
• 25:45
  That's
• 25:46
  how
• 25:46
  we
• 25:46
  make
• 25:46
  our
• 25:46
  hormones.
• 25:47
  It's
• 25:48
  not
• 25:48
  a
• 25:48
  villain.
• 25:49
  If
• 25:49
  you
• 25:49
  have
• 25:49
  high
• 25:50
  cholesterol,
• 25:50
  but
• 25:51
  you
• 25:51
  go
• 25:51
  down
• 25:51
  the
• 25:52
  fractionated
• 25:52
  panel
• 25:53
  and
• 25:53
  you
• 25:53
  say,
• 25:54
  oh,
• 25:54
  but
• 25:55
  it's
• 25:55
  not
• 25:55
  oxidized.
• 25:56
  I
• 25:56
  don't
• 25:56
  have
• 25:57
  a
• 25:57
  bunch
• 25:57
  of
• 25:57
  tiny
• 25:57
  particles.
• 25:58
  Everything
• 25:58
  is
• 25:58
  large
• 25:59
  and
• 25:59
  fluffy.
• 26:01
  I'm
• 26:01
  in
• 26:01
  good
• 26:01
  shape.
• 26:02
  And
• 26:02
  a
• 26:03
  lot
• 26:03
  of
• 26:03
  that
• 26:03
  is
• 26:03
  genetics.
• 26:06
  So
• 26:06
  it's
• 26:07
  more.
• 26:07
  Would
• 26:07
  you
• 26:07
  say
• 26:07
  it's
• 26:08
  more
• 26:08
  genetics
• 26:09
  than
• 26:09
  lifestyle
• 26:10
  or
• 26:10
  vice
• 26:11
  versa?
• 26:12
  I
• 26:12
  would
• 26:12
  say
• 26:13
  it
• 26:13
  depends
• 26:13
  on
• 26:13
  the
• 26:13
  case.
• 26:14
  So
• 26:14
  women
• 26:15
  that
• 26:15
  have
• 26:15
  an
• 26:15
  elevated
• 26:16
  lp,
• 26:18
  that's
• 26:18
  usually
• 26:18
  genetics,
• 26:22
  like
• 26:23
  me.
• 26:23
  I
• 26:23
  have
• 26:24
  high
• 26:24
  oxidized
• 26:25
  cholesterol.
• 26:26
  I
• 26:27
  have
• 26:27
  an
• 26:27
  APOE
• 26:28
  4
• 26:29
  genotype.
• 26:29
  It's
• 26:30
  also
• 26:30
  more
• 26:30
  associated
• 26:31
  with
• 26:31
  Alzheimer's,
• 26:33
  but
• 26:33
  it
• 26:34
  has
• 26:34
  to
• 26:34
  do
• 26:34
  with
• 26:34
  how
• 26:35
  I
• 26:35
  transport
• 26:36
  cholesterol.
• 26:37
  I
• 26:37
  don't
• 26:37
  do
• 26:37
  a
• 26:37
  great
• 26:37
  job
• 26:38
  of
• 26:38
  it.
• 26:38
  It
• 26:39
  gets
• 26:39
  oxidized.
• 26:40
  So
• 26:40
  I
• 26:40
  have
• 26:40
  to
• 26:41
  take
• 26:41
  a
• 26:41
  lot
• 26:41
  of
• 26:42
  supplements.
• 26:43
  CoQ10,
• 26:44
  bergamot,
• 26:45
  garlic.
• 26:47
  I
• 26:48
  take
• 26:48
  arterosil.
• 26:49
  I
• 26:50
  do
• 26:50
  nitric
• 26:50
  oxide
• 26:51
  support,
• 26:53
  and
• 26:54
  I.
• 26:55
  So
• 26:55
  according
• 26:55
  to
• 26:56
  my
• 26:56
  OURA
• 26:56
  ring,
• 26:56
  you
• 26:56
  know,
• 26:57
  I'm
• 26:57
  eight
• 26:57
  years
• 26:57
  younger
• 26:58
  than
• 26:58
  my
• 26:58
  age.
• 26:59
  But
• 26:59
  when
• 26:59
  I.
• 27:00
  Before
• 27:00
  I
• 27:01
  started
• 27:01
  adding
• 27:01
  those
• 27:01
  supplements,
• 27:02
  I
• 27:02
  was.
• 27:03
  It
• 27:03
  was
• 27:03
  three
• 27:04
  years
• 27:04
  younger.
• 27:05
  Oh,
• 27:06
  there's
• 27:07
  been
• 27:07
  a
• 27:07
  tremendous
• 27:08
  amount
• 27:08
  of
• 27:08
  progress.
• 27:09
  I
• 27:09
  also
• 27:09
  do
• 27:11
  cimt.
• 27:11
  It's
• 27:12
  ultrasound
• 27:13
  for
• 27:13
  your
• 27:13
  carotid
• 27:14
  artery,
• 27:14
  so
• 27:15
  it's
• 27:15
  less
• 27:16
  invasive
• 27:16
  and
• 27:17
  no
• 27:17
  radiation
• 27:18
  as
• 27:18
  compared
• 27:19
  to
• 27:19
  CT
• 27:20
  scan.
• 27:21
  So
• 27:22
  if
• 27:23
  you
• 27:23
  want
• 27:23
  to
• 27:23
  get
• 27:23
  a
• 27:23
  sense
• 27:24
  of
• 27:24
  how
• 27:25
  your
• 27:25
  arteries
• 27:25
  are
• 27:25
  doing,
• 27:26
  if
• 27:26
  there's
• 27:26
  calcifications,
• 27:27
  CIMT
• 27:28
  is
• 27:28
  great.
• 27:29
  And
• 27:29
  there
• 27:29
  was
• 27:29
  a
• 27:30
  point
• 27:30
  where
• 27:31
  I
• 27:31
  was
• 27:32
  a
• 27:32
  little
• 27:32
  bit
• 27:32
  younger
• 27:33
  than
• 27:33
  my
• 27:33
  age,
• 27:34
  and
• 27:34
  then
• 27:35
  all
• 27:35
  of
• 27:35
  a
• 27:35
  sudden,
• 27:36
  late
• 27:36
  Perry,
• 27:36
  that
• 27:37
  year,
• 27:37
  that
• 27:37
  I
• 27:37
  finally
• 27:38
  was
• 27:38
  like,
• 27:38
  okay,
• 27:39
  it's
• 27:39
  HRT
• 27:40
  time.
• 27:41
  I.
• 27:42
  My
• 27:42
  CIMT
• 27:43
  jumped
• 27:43
  to.
• 27:44
  I
• 27:44
  was
• 27:45
  48,
• 27:45
  but
• 27:46
  it
• 27:46
  showed
• 27:46
  I
• 27:46
  was
• 27:46
  51.
• 27:47
  And
• 27:48
  I
• 27:48
  was
• 27:48
  not
• 27:48
  happy
• 27:49
  with
• 27:49
  that.
• 27:49
  I
• 27:49
  started
• 27:50
  HRT.
• 27:51
  It's
• 27:51
  like,
• 27:52
  we're
• 27:52
  going.
• 27:52
  I
• 27:53
  don't
• 27:53
  want
• 27:53
  to
• 27:53
  go
• 27:53
  that
• 27:53
  direction.
• 27:54
  Go
• 27:54
  down.
• 27:55
  So
• 27:55
  I
• 27:55
  started
• 27:56
  HRT,
• 27:56
  I
• 27:56
  started
• 27:57
  the
• 27:57
  supplements,
• 27:58
  and
• 27:59
  I
• 27:59
  took
• 27:59
  off
• 28:00
  three
• 28:00
  years.
• 28:00
  So
• 28:00
  my
• 28:00
  last
• 28:01
  CIMT,
• 28:03
  I'm
• 28:04
  51
• 28:04
  now,
• 28:05
  but
• 28:05
  it
• 28:05
  shows
• 28:06
  49.
• 28:07
  Reversed
• 28:08
  it.
• 28:08
  Okay.
• 28:09
  Yeah.
• 28:09
  And
• 28:09
  that's
• 28:10
  what
• 28:10
  I.
• 28:10
  When
• 28:10
  I
• 28:11
  say
• 28:11
  things
• 28:11
  change
• 28:12
  quickly.
• 28:13
  It's
• 28:13
  like,
• 28:13
  I
• 28:14
  don't
• 28:14
  want
• 28:14
  people
• 28:14
  to
• 28:14
  obsess
• 28:15
  over
• 28:15
  this
• 28:15
  stuff.
• 28:15
  I
• 28:16
  just
• 28:16
  want
• 28:16
  to
• 28:16
  every
• 28:17
  year
• 28:17
  or
• 28:17
  six
• 28:18
  months,
• 28:18
  give
• 28:18
  yourself
• 28:19
  a
• 28:19
  check
• 28:19
  in.
• 28:20
  Because
• 28:21
  if
• 28:21
  I
• 28:21
  would
• 28:21
  have
• 28:22
  let
• 28:22
  that
• 28:22
  go
• 28:23
  for
• 28:24
  two
• 28:24
  years
• 28:24
  instead
• 28:25
  of
• 28:25
  six
• 28:25
  months,
• 28:25
  who
• 28:26
  knows?
• 28:26
  I
• 28:26
  may
• 28:26
  have
• 28:26
  had
• 28:27
  some
• 28:27
  calcifications
• 28:27
  and
• 28:28
  some
• 28:28
  plaques
• 28:29
  building
• 28:29
  up.
• 28:30
  It's.
• 28:30
  You
• 28:30
  know,
• 28:30
  it's
• 28:30
  one
• 28:31
  of
• 28:31
  the
• 28:31
  reasons
• 28:31
  why
• 28:31
  they
• 28:32
  say
• 28:33
  it's
• 28:33
  preferential
• 28:34
  to
• 28:34
  start
• 28:34
  HRT
• 28:35
  within
• 28:35
  10
• 28:36
  years
• 28:37
  of
• 28:37
  your
• 28:37
  last
• 28:38
  menstrual
• 28:39
  cycle.
• 28:39
  Because
• 28:40
  the
• 28:40
  longer
• 28:40
  you
• 28:40
  wait,
• 28:41
  the
• 28:41
  faster
• 28:42
  that
• 28:42
  calcium
• 28:43
  builds
• 28:43
  up.
• 28:43
  And
• 28:44
  then
• 28:44
  when
• 28:44
  you
• 28:44
  add
• 28:44
  in
• 28:45
  estrogen,
• 28:46
  it
• 28:46
  can
• 28:46
  dislodge
• 28:47
  soft
• 28:47
  plaque
• 28:48
  and
• 28:48
  lead
• 28:49
  to
• 28:49
  a
• 28:49
  cardiovascular
• 28:50
  event.
• 28:51
  Ooh.
• 28:52
  That's
• 28:53
  the
• 28:53
  whole
• 28:53
  issue
• 28:54
  of,
• 28:54
  you
• 28:55
  know,
• 28:55
  try
• 28:55
  to
• 28:55
  do
• 28:55
  it
• 28:56
  within
• 28:56
  10
• 28:56
  years
• 28:57
  of
• 28:57
  menopause.
• 28:58
  And,
• 28:59
  I
• 28:59
  mean,
• 28:59
  I
• 28:59
  could
• 29:00
  see
• 29:00
  it
• 29:00
  in
• 29:00
  my
• 29:00
  own
• 29:00
  labs
• 29:01
  that,
• 29:01
  wow,
• 29:01
  my
• 29:02
  cardiovascular
• 29:02
  health
• 29:03
  was
• 29:03
  changing
• 29:04
  rapidly,
• 29:05
  and
• 29:05
  I
• 29:06
  caught
• 29:06
  it
• 29:06
  right
• 29:06
  away,
• 29:06
  thank
• 29:07
  goodness.
• 29:07
  But
• 29:07
  if
• 29:08
  you
• 29:08
  wait
• 29:08
  10
• 29:08
  years,
• 29:09
  there's
• 29:10
  a
• 29:10
  lot
• 29:10
  of
• 29:10
  buildup
• 29:10
  that
• 29:10
  can
• 29:11
  happen
• 29:12
  quickly.
• 29:13
  Yeah,
• 29:13
  that
• 29:13
  does.
• 29:14
  Because
• 29:14
  they'd
• 29:14
  always
• 29:14
  say,
• 29:15
  like,
• 29:15
  you
• 29:15
  always
• 29:15
  hear,
• 29:16
  you
• 29:16
  know,
• 29:16
  estrogen
• 29:17
  is
• 29:17
  cardio
• 29:17
  protective.
• 29:19
  But
• 29:19
  that
• 29:19
  is
• 29:19
  really
• 29:20
  kind
• 29:20
  of
• 29:20
  the
• 29:20
  explanation
• 29:21
  right
• 29:21
  there
• 29:22
  of
• 29:22
  what,
• 29:22
  you
• 29:23
  know,
• 29:23
  what
• 29:23
  can
• 29:23
  happen
• 29:23
  if
• 29:24
  you
• 29:24
  let
• 29:24
  things
• 29:24
  go.
• 29:24
  Go
• 29:25
  and
• 29:26
  not
• 29:26
  do
• 29:27
  anything
• 29:27
  about
• 29:27
  it.
• 29:28
  That's
• 29:28
  scary
• 29:28
  that
• 29:28
  it
• 29:29
  could
• 29:29
  loosen
• 29:29
  plaques,
• 29:30
  and
• 29:30
  then
• 29:30
  those
• 29:31
  are
• 29:31
  loose
• 29:32
  running
• 29:32
  around
• 29:32
  the
• 29:32
  body.
• 29:33
  And,
• 29:33
  you
• 29:33
  know,
• 29:33
  who
• 29:33
  know,
• 29:34
  who
• 29:34
  knows
• 29:34
  what
• 29:34
  happens
• 29:35
  after
• 29:35
  that?
• 29:36
  Right.
• 29:36
  So
• 29:36
  that's
• 29:36
  why
• 29:37
  you
• 29:37
  can
• 29:37
  still
• 29:37
  take
• 29:37
  it
• 29:38
  after
• 29:38
  60
• 29:38
  or
• 29:39
  even
• 29:39
  when
• 29:39
  you're
• 29:39
  70.
• 29:39
  But
• 29:40
  you
• 29:40
  want
• 29:40
  to
• 29:40
  go
• 29:40
  get
• 29:41
  a
• 29:41
  CIMT
• 29:42
  ultrasound,
• 29:43
  or
• 29:43
  you
• 29:44
  want
• 29:44
  to
• 29:44
  get
• 29:44
  a
• 29:44
  CT
• 29:44
  scan.
• 29:45
  You
• 29:45
  want
• 29:45
  to
• 29:46
  have
• 29:46
  some
• 29:46
  sense
• 29:46
  of
• 29:47
  if
• 29:47
  you
• 29:47
  have
• 29:48
  plaque
• 29:48
  buildup.
• 29:51
  And
• 29:51
  also,
• 29:53
  estrogen
• 29:53
  is
• 29:54
  associated
• 29:55
  with
• 29:55
  nitric
• 29:55
  oxide,
• 29:56
  which
• 29:56
  we
• 29:56
  need
• 29:57
  for
• 29:57
  heart
• 29:57
  health
• 29:57
  and
• 29:58
  circulation.
• 29:59
  So
• 30:00
  I
• 30:00
  take
• 30:00
  nitric
• 30:01
  oxide
• 30:01
  support
• 30:02
  even
• 30:02
  though
• 30:02
  I
• 30:02
  take
• 30:02
  estrogen
• 30:03
  as
• 30:03
  well.
• 30:03
  And
• 30:03
  again,
• 30:04
  I've
• 30:05
  done
• 30:05
  a
• 30:05
  really
• 30:05
  deep
• 30:05
  dive
• 30:05
  into
• 30:06
  my
• 30:06
  genetics,
• 30:06
  and
• 30:07
  I
• 30:07
  try
• 30:07
  to
• 30:07
  for
• 30:07
  my
• 30:07
  clients,
• 30:09
  if
• 30:09
  they're
• 30:09
  up
• 30:09
  for
• 30:10
  it.
• 30:10
  Some
• 30:10
  people
• 30:10
  don't
• 30:10
  want
• 30:11
  to
• 30:11
  know
• 30:11
  the
• 30:11
  information.
• 30:12
  I
• 30:12
  find
• 30:13
  it
• 30:13
  to
• 30:13
  be
• 30:13
  helpful.
• 30:14
  I
• 30:14
  don't
• 30:15
  have
• 30:15
  great
• 30:15
  nitric
• 30:16
  oxide
• 30:17
  genetically,
• 30:18
  so
• 30:18
  I
• 30:18
  do
• 30:19
  support
• 30:19
  that.
• 30:20
  Yeah.
• 30:20
  Genetics,
• 30:21
  I
• 30:21
  would
• 30:21
  think,
• 30:22
  would
• 30:22
  play
• 30:22
  such
• 30:22
  a
• 30:23
  key
• 30:23
  role
• 30:23
  in
• 30:24
  finding
• 30:24
  out
• 30:25
  some
• 30:25
  of
• 30:25
  these
• 30:25
  answers,
• 30:26
  at
• 30:26
  least,
• 30:26
  you
• 30:26
  know,
• 30:27
  kind
• 30:27
  of
• 30:27
  seeing
• 30:28
  how
• 30:28
  that
• 30:28
  plays
• 30:28
  a
• 30:28
  role.
• 30:29
  Right.
• 30:30
  It
• 30:30
  helps
• 30:30
  because
• 30:31
  there's
• 30:31
  so
• 30:31
  many
• 30:32
  supplements,
• 30:32
  and
• 30:33
  honestly,
• 30:33
  there
• 30:33
  are
• 30:34
  a
• 30:34
  lot
• 30:34
  of
• 30:34
  great
• 30:34
  ones,
• 30:35
  but
• 30:35
  every
• 30:35
  woman
• 30:36
  doesn't
• 30:36
  need
• 30:37
  them.
• 30:37
  And
• 30:37
  a
• 30:37
  bottle
• 30:37
  can
• 30:38
  be
• 30:38
  a
• 30:38
  hundred,
• 30:38
  $150.
• 30:40
  So
• 30:40
  how
• 30:41
  do
• 30:41
  you
• 30:41
  know
• 30:41
  where
• 30:42
  to
• 30:42
  spend
• 30:42
  your
• 30:43
  money?
• 30:43
  For
• 30:43
  me,
• 30:44
  you
• 30:44
  know,
• 30:44
  if
• 30:44
  you
• 30:44
  can
• 30:45
  do
• 30:45
  a
• 30:45
  $300
• 30:46
  genetic
• 30:47
  test,
• 30:48
  there's
• 30:49
  a
• 30:50
  3x4
• 30:51
  that
• 30:52
  this
• 30:53
  test,
• 30:53
  it
• 30:53
  used
• 30:54
  to
• 30:54
  be
• 30:54
  not
• 30:55
  through
• 30:55
  their
• 30:55
  company,
• 30:56
  but
• 30:56
  thousands
• 30:56
  of
• 30:57
  dollars
• 30:57
  through
• 30:57
  other
• 30:57
  companies
• 30:58
  that
• 30:58
  are
• 30:58
  still
• 30:58
  charging
• 30:59
  thousands
• 30:59
  of
• 30:59
  dollars.
• 31:00
  They
• 31:00
  charge
• 31:00
  a
• 31:00
  couple
• 31:00
  hundred
• 31:01
  bucks,
• 31:01
  same
• 31:02
  amount
• 31:02
  of
• 31:02
  information.
• 31:03
  And
• 31:04
  that's
• 31:04
  really
• 31:04
  how
• 31:05
  I
• 31:05
  can
• 31:05
  answer
• 31:06
  a
• 31:06
  client
• 31:06
  when
• 31:06
  they
• 31:06
  say,
• 31:07
  well,
• 31:07
  what
• 31:07
  should
• 31:07
  I
• 31:07
  be
• 31:08
  eating?
• 31:08
  Can
• 31:09
  I.
• 31:09
  Because
• 31:09
  some
• 31:10
  women
• 31:10
  can
• 31:10
  handle
• 31:11
  way
• 31:11
  more
• 31:11
  fat
• 31:12
  than
• 31:12
  someone
• 31:12
  else.
• 31:12
  Some
• 31:13
  women
• 31:13
  can
• 31:13
  handle
• 31:14
  way
• 31:14
  more
• 31:14
  red
• 31:14
  meat.
• 31:15
  Like,
• 31:15
  I
• 31:16
  love
• 31:17
  the
• 31:17
  way
• 31:17
  I
• 31:17
  feel
• 31:18
  when
• 31:18
  I
• 31:19
  eat
• 31:19
  red
• 31:19
  meat.
• 31:20
  I
• 31:20
  feel
• 31:20
  you
• 31:21
  know,
• 31:21
  I
• 31:21
  have
• 31:21
  a
• 31:21
  lot
• 31:21
  of
• 31:22
  energy.
• 31:22
  I
• 31:22
  feel
• 31:22
  very
• 31:22
  satiated.
• 31:24
  However,
• 31:24
  because
• 31:25
  of
• 31:25
  my
• 31:25
  genetics,
• 31:26
  I
• 31:26
  really
• 31:26
  can't
• 31:26
  eat
• 31:26
  it
• 31:26
  more
• 31:27
  than
• 31:27
  once
• 31:27
  or
• 31:27
  twice
• 31:27
  a
• 31:28
  week
• 31:28
  because,
• 31:29
  again,
• 31:29
  I
• 31:29
  oxidize
• 31:31
  fat
• 31:31
  easily.
• 31:32
  I
• 31:33
  also
• 31:33
  have
• 31:33
  some
• 31:34
  iron
• 31:34
  genetics
• 31:35
  going
• 31:35
  on.
• 31:36
  So
• 31:37
  when
• 31:37
  I
• 31:37
  hear
• 31:38
  noise
• 31:39
  online
• 31:40
  saying
• 31:42
  chicken
• 31:42
  is
• 31:42
  an
• 31:43
  inferior
• 31:44
  protein
• 31:45
  and
• 31:45
  you
• 31:45
  should
• 31:46
  be
• 31:46
  eating
• 31:46
  red
• 31:46
  meat
• 31:47
  and
• 31:47
  whey,
• 31:47
  well,
• 31:47
  okay,
• 31:48
  but
• 31:49
  not
• 31:49
  everyone
• 31:49
  can
• 31:49
  do
• 31:50
  that.
• 31:50
  I
• 31:50
  eat
• 31:50
  a
• 31:50
  lot
• 31:51
  of
• 31:51
  chicken.
• 31:51
  It's
• 31:52
  not
• 31:52
  the
• 31:52
  greatest.
• 31:52
  I
• 31:52
  know.
• 31:52
  It's
• 31:52
  got
• 31:53
  some
• 31:53
  arsenic.
• 31:53
  I
• 31:53
  know.
• 31:55
  Whatever.
• 31:56
  That's
• 31:56
  the.
• 31:56
  That's
• 31:56
  what
• 31:57
  I'm
• 31:57
  dealing
• 31:57
  with,
• 31:58
  so.
• 32:00
  Or
• 32:01
  mitochondrial
• 32:02
  function.
• 32:02
  Genetically,
• 32:02
  I'm
• 32:03
  not
• 32:03
  great
• 32:03
  with
• 32:03
  that.
• 32:03
  So
• 32:03
  I
• 32:04
  do
• 32:04
  spend
• 32:04
  the
• 32:04
  money
• 32:04
  on
• 32:05
  mitochondrial
• 32:06
  support,
• 32:06
  you
• 32:07
  know,
• 32:07
  like
• 32:07
  Mito
• 32:08
  Pure
• 32:08
  and
• 32:09
  Coq
• 32:09
  10,
• 32:10
  which
• 32:10
  isn't
• 32:10
  that
• 32:10
  expensive,
• 32:12
  but
• 32:12
  nad,
• 32:13
  like,
• 32:14
  some
• 32:14
  of
• 32:14
  it
• 32:14
  can
• 32:14
  get
• 32:14
  pretty
• 32:15
  pricey.
• 32:16
  I
• 32:16
  can
• 32:16
  tell
• 32:16
  a
• 32:17
  big
• 32:17
  difference
• 32:17
  when
• 32:17
  I
• 32:17
  use
• 32:18
  it
• 32:18
  and
• 32:18
  when
• 32:18
  I
• 32:18
  don't.
• 32:19
  But
• 32:19
  does
• 32:19
  every
• 32:19
  woman
• 32:19
  need
• 32:20
  to
• 32:20
  spend
• 32:20
  that?
• 32:20
  No.
• 32:21
  Yeah,
• 32:22
  no,
• 32:22
  absolutely.
• 32:22
  And
• 32:22
  I
• 32:23
  love
• 32:23
  that
• 32:23
  you
• 32:23
  brought
• 32:23
  up
• 32:23
  mitochondrial
• 32:24
  dysfunction
• 32:25
  and
• 32:27
  just
• 32:27
  the
• 32:27
  whole,
• 32:28
  like,
• 32:28
  all
• 32:28
  of
• 32:29
  that,
• 32:29
  because
• 32:29
  I
• 32:29
  feel
• 32:30
  like
• 32:30
  it's
• 32:30
  an
• 32:30
  issue
• 32:30
  that
• 32:31
  maybe
• 32:31
  women
• 32:31
  don't
• 32:32
  know,
• 32:32
  are
• 32:32
  not
• 32:32
  that
• 32:33
  familiar
• 32:33
  with.
• 32:34
  So
• 32:34
  can
• 32:35
  you
• 32:35
  kind
• 32:35
  of
• 32:35
  break
• 32:35
  that
• 32:36
  down
• 32:36
  and
• 32:36
  how
• 32:36
  it
• 32:37
  actually
• 32:37
  shows
• 32:38
  up
• 32:38
  in
• 32:38
  our
• 32:38
  lives,
• 32:39
  you
• 32:39
  know,
• 32:39
  through
• 32:39
  fatigue,
• 32:40
  through
• 32:40
  anxiety,
• 32:41
  through
• 32:41
  brain
• 32:42
  fog,
• 32:42
  which
• 32:42
  is
• 32:42
  just
• 32:43
  so
• 32:43
  common
• 32:44
  with
• 32:44
  everybody
• 32:44
  I
• 32:45
  know
• 32:45
  in
• 32:45
  perimenopause
• 32:46
  and
• 32:46
  menopause.
• 32:47
  Well,
• 32:47
  because
• 32:48
  we
• 32:48
  desperately
• 32:49
  need
• 32:50
  estrogen,
• 32:51
  estradiol,
• 32:51
  specifically
• 32:52
  for
• 32:52
  mitochondrial
• 32:53
  function.
• 32:54
  Without
• 32:54
  it,
• 32:54
  we
• 32:55
  lose
• 32:55
  it.
• 32:55
  And
• 32:55
  without
• 32:56
  proper
• 32:56
  mitochondrial
• 32:57
  function,
• 32:59
  everything
• 32:59
  goes
• 33:00
  by
• 33:00
  the
• 33:00
  wayside.
• 33:01
  We
• 33:01
  don't
• 33:01
  have
• 33:02
  the
• 33:02
  energy.
• 33:02
  We
• 33:03
  don't
• 33:03
  have
• 33:03
  that
• 33:03
  get
• 33:03
  up
• 33:03
  and
• 33:04
  go.
• 33:04
  I
• 33:04
  mean,
• 33:04
  that
• 33:04
  also
• 33:05
  is
• 33:05
  related
• 33:05
  to
• 33:06
  testosterone
• 33:06
  a
• 33:06
  bit.
• 33:07
  But
• 33:07
  we
• 33:08
  need
• 33:08
  mitochondrial
• 33:08
  function
• 33:09
  to
• 33:09
  feel
• 33:09
  motivated,
• 33:09
  to
• 33:10
  go
• 33:10
  to
• 33:10
  the
• 33:10
  gym,
• 33:10
  to
• 33:11
  lift
• 33:11
  weights.
• 33:12
  And
• 33:12
  it
• 33:12
  becomes
• 33:12
  a
• 33:12
  vicious
• 33:13
  cycle
• 33:14
  of
• 33:15
  not
• 33:15
  having
• 33:15
  enough
• 33:16
  energy.
• 33:16
  So
• 33:16
  you're
• 33:17
  not
• 33:17
  doing
• 33:17
  the
• 33:17
  things
• 33:17
  that
• 33:17
  give
• 33:18
  you
• 33:18
  energy,
• 33:19
  and
• 33:20
  you
• 33:20
  can
• 33:20
  spiral
• 33:20
  downward
• 33:21
  very
• 33:21
  quickly.
• 33:21
  But
• 33:22
  we
• 33:22
  desperately
• 33:23
  need
• 33:23
  estrogen
• 33:24
  to
• 33:24
  have
• 33:24
  proper
• 33:25
  mitochondrial
• 33:26
  function.
• 33:27
  And
• 33:27
  for
• 33:27
  some
• 33:28
  women,
• 33:28
  even
• 33:29
  if
• 33:29
  they're
• 33:29
  on
• 33:29
  hrt,
• 33:30
  that's
• 33:30
  not
• 33:31
  going
• 33:31
  to
• 33:31
  be
• 33:31
  enough.
• 33:32
  So
• 33:32
  that's
• 33:32
  when
• 33:33
  you
• 33:33
  think
• 33:33
  of
• 33:34
  things
• 33:34
  like
• 33:34
  red
• 33:35
  light
• 33:36
  or
• 33:37
  infrared
• 33:37
  saunas.
• 33:38
  You
• 33:39
  know,
• 33:39
  there's
• 33:39
  a
• 33:39
  lot
• 33:39
  of
• 33:40
  great
• 33:40
  ways
• 33:40
  to
• 33:41
  support
• 33:41
  your
• 33:42
  mitochondrial
• 33:43
  function
• 33:43
  that
• 33:44
  we
• 33:44
  really
• 33:44
  do
• 33:45
  lose
• 33:45
  quite
• 33:46
  significantly
• 33:46
  during
• 33:47
  perimenopause.
• 33:48
  And
• 33:48
  like
• 33:48
  you
• 33:48
  were
• 33:48
  saying,
• 33:48
  brain
• 33:49
  fog
• 33:49
  is
• 33:50
  one
• 33:50
  of
• 33:50
  the
• 33:50
  quickest
• 33:51
  things
• 33:51
  that
• 33:52
  you
• 33:52
  see.
• 33:53
  And
• 33:53
  also
• 33:54
  skin
• 33:54
  health
• 33:55
  and
• 33:56
  ovarian
• 33:57
  aging
• 33:57
  in
• 33:57
  general.
• 33:57
  We
• 33:58
  have
• 33:58
  the
• 33:58
  most
• 33:58
  mitochondria
• 33:59
  in
• 33:59
  our
• 33:59
  ovaries.
• 34:01
  So
• 34:01
  anything
• 34:02
  that
• 34:02
  you
• 34:02
  do
• 34:03
  to
• 34:03
  support
• 34:04
  your
• 34:04
  mitochondria
• 34:05
  is
• 34:05
  going
• 34:05
  to
• 34:05
  prolong
• 34:06
  your
• 34:06
  Ovarian
• 34:07
  health.
• 34:08
  So
• 34:09
  is
• 34:09
  there
• 34:09
  any
• 34:09
  sort
• 34:10
  of
• 34:10
  a
• 34:10
  correlation
• 34:10
  between
• 34:11
  mitochondrial
• 34:12
  dysfunction
• 34:13
  and
• 34:13
  ovarian
• 34:14
  cancer?
• 34:15
  I
• 34:16
  don't
• 34:16
  know.
• 34:18
  But
• 34:18
  at
• 34:18
  the
• 34:19
  end
• 34:19
  of
• 34:19
  the
• 34:19
  day
• 34:20
  our
• 34:20
  bodies
• 34:21
  do
• 34:21
  not
• 34:21
  function
• 34:22
  properly
• 34:22
  in
• 34:23
  any
• 34:23
  way
• 34:24
  without
• 34:24
  proper
• 34:25
  mitochondrial
• 34:25
  function.
• 34:27
  So
• 34:27
  I'm
• 34:28
  sure
• 34:28
  it,
• 34:29
  you
• 34:29
  know,
• 34:29
  is
• 34:29
  an
• 34:30
  element
• 34:31
  as
• 34:31
  well
• 34:31
  as
• 34:32
  all
• 34:32
  the
• 34:32
  other
• 34:32
  things,
• 34:32
  whether
• 34:33
  it's
• 34:33
  blood
• 34:33
  sugar
• 34:34
  or
• 34:34
  toxic
• 34:34
  exposures
• 34:35
  or
• 34:36
  fungus,
• 34:36
  mold.
• 34:37
  There's
• 34:38
  a
• 34:38
  lot
• 34:38
  of
• 34:38
  roads
• 34:38
  to
• 34:39
  get
• 34:39
  there.
• 34:40
  But
• 34:40
  without
• 34:40
  mitochondrial
• 34:41
  function
• 34:43
  you
• 34:43
  don't,
• 34:43
  you've
• 34:43
  got
• 34:44
  nothing.
• 34:45
  So
• 34:45
  if
• 34:45
  we're,
• 34:45
  let's
• 34:46
  say
• 34:46
  we
• 34:46
  go
• 34:46
  into
• 34:47
  the,
• 34:47
  you
• 34:47
  know,
• 34:48
  one
• 34:48
  of
• 34:48
  the
• 34:48
  health,
• 34:49
  health
• 34:49
  food
• 34:49
  stores
• 34:50
  and
• 34:50
  you
• 34:50
  know,
• 34:50
  you're
• 34:50
  standing
• 34:51
  there,
• 34:51
  you're
• 34:51
  looking
• 34:51
  at
• 34:52
  all
• 34:52
  the
• 34:52
  supplements.
• 34:53
  Are
• 34:54
  there
• 34:54
  like
• 34:54
  maybe
• 34:55
  three
• 34:56
  universal
• 34:57
  supplements
• 34:57
  that
• 34:57
  you
• 34:58
  think
• 34:58
  are
• 34:58
  good
• 34:58
  for
• 34:59
  every
• 34:59
  woman,
• 34:59
  that
• 35:00
  every
• 35:00
  woman
• 35:00
  should
• 35:00
  have
• 35:01
  in
• 35:01
  her
• 35:01
  medicine
• 35:02
  cabinet
• 35:03
  regardless
• 35:03
  of
• 35:03
  her
• 35:04
  genetic
• 35:05
  makeup
• 35:05
  or
• 35:05
  her,
• 35:06
  you
• 35:06
  know,
• 35:06
  whatever's
• 35:07
  going
• 35:07
  on
• 35:07
  right
• 35:08
  now?
• 35:09
  Yeah,
• 35:10
  I
• 35:10
  would
• 35:11
  say
• 35:11
  magnesium
• 35:13
  for
• 35:13
  sure
• 35:14
  and
• 35:15
  there's
• 35:15
  many
• 35:16
  different
• 35:16
  kinds
• 35:16
  of
• 35:16
  magnesium
• 35:17
  for
• 35:17
  different
• 35:17
  reasons.
• 35:18
  I
• 35:18
  personally
• 35:19
  love
• 35:19
  and
• 35:19
  I
• 35:20
  don't
• 35:20
  have
• 35:20
  a
• 35:20
  financial
• 35:20
  relationship,
• 35:21
  I
• 35:21
  love
• 35:22
  bioptimizers
• 35:23
  magnesium
• 35:23
  because
• 35:24
  it
• 35:24
  has
• 35:25
  somewhere
• 35:25
  between
• 35:25
  seven
• 35:26
  and
• 35:26
  nine
• 35:26
  different
• 35:26
  kinds.
• 35:27
  And
• 35:27
  so
• 35:27
  you're
• 35:27
  hitting
• 35:28
  all
• 35:28
  your
• 35:28
  bases.
• 35:30
  Most
• 35:30
  people
• 35:30
  think
• 35:31
  of
• 35:31
  magnesium
• 35:31
  as
• 35:31
  being
• 35:32
  an
• 35:32
  evening
• 35:32
  supplement
• 35:33
  but
• 35:33
  we
• 35:33
  actually
• 35:34
  deplete
• 35:34
  most
• 35:34
  of
• 35:35
  it
• 35:35
  at
• 35:35
  night,
• 35:35
  noon.
• 35:36
  So
• 35:36
  I
• 35:36
  take
• 35:37
  it
• 35:37
  three
• 35:37
  times
• 35:37
  a
• 35:37
  day,
• 35:38
  just
• 35:38
  250
• 35:39
  milligrams.
• 35:40
  It
• 35:40
  doesn't
• 35:41
  give
• 35:41
  me
• 35:41
  an
• 35:41
  upset
• 35:41
  stomach.
• 35:42
  It's
• 35:42
  not
• 35:42
  too
• 35:42
  much,
• 35:43
  it's
• 35:44
  just
• 35:44
  kind
• 35:44
  of
• 35:46
  all
• 35:46
  day
• 35:46
  and,
• 35:47
  and
• 35:47
  night.
• 35:48
  But
• 35:49
  our
• 35:49
  for,
• 35:50
  for
• 35:50
  a
• 35:50
  variety
• 35:50
  of
• 35:51
  reasons.
• 35:51
  If
• 35:51
  someone
• 35:52
  is,
• 35:52
  was
• 35:52
  on
• 35:53
  the
• 35:53
  pill,
• 35:53
  they
• 35:53
  for
• 35:53
  sure
• 35:54
  depleted
• 35:54
  in
• 35:54
  magnesium.
• 35:55
  But
• 35:55
  most
• 35:56
  of
• 35:56
  us
• 35:56
  are
• 35:57
  especially
• 35:58
  perimenopause
• 35:58
  menopause
• 35:59
  just
• 35:59
  stress
• 36:00
  depletes
• 36:00
  it
• 36:00
  so
• 36:00
  quickly.
• 36:02
  So
• 36:02
  that's
• 36:03
  a
• 36:03
  favorite.
• 36:04
  Omega
• 36:04
  3
• 36:05
  is
• 36:05
  a
• 36:05
  good
• 36:05
  quality
• 36:06
  source
• 36:06
  that
• 36:07
  you
• 36:07
  know,
• 36:07
  isn't
• 36:07
  contaminated
• 36:08
  and
• 36:08
  is
• 36:09
  processed
• 36:10
  properly.
• 36:11
  It's
• 36:11
  just
• 36:11
  so
• 36:11
  anti
• 36:12
  inflammatory.
• 36:12
  It's
• 36:13
  great
• 36:13
  for
• 36:13
  cardiovascular
• 36:14
  health,
• 36:14
  great
• 36:14
  for
• 36:15
  brain
• 36:15
  health.
• 36:17
  So
• 36:17
  omegas
• 36:18
  magnesium
• 36:19
  and
• 36:19
  then
• 36:19
  a
• 36:19
  methylated
• 36:20
  B
• 36:20
  vitamin.
• 36:21
  So
• 36:21
  if
• 36:22
  you
• 36:22
  don't
• 36:22
  know
• 36:23
  your
• 36:23
  genetics
• 36:24
  then
• 36:24
  if
• 36:24
  it's
• 36:24
  methylated
• 36:25
  you
• 36:25
  don't
• 36:25
  have
• 36:25
  to
• 36:25
  worry
• 36:25
  about
• 36:26
  it
• 36:26
  because
• 36:26
  if
• 36:26
  you
• 36:26
  have
• 36:27
  MTHFR
• 36:28
  snips
• 36:29
  and
• 36:29
  you
• 36:30
  take
• 36:30
  folic
• 36:30
  acid
• 36:31
  that
• 36:31
  can
• 36:32
  build
• 36:32
  up,
• 36:32
  make
• 36:32
  you
• 36:33
  feel
• 36:33
  worse.
• 36:33
  And
• 36:34
  so
• 36:34
  if
• 36:34
  you
• 36:34
  don't
• 36:34
  want
• 36:35
  to
• 36:35
  do
• 36:35
  genetic
• 36:35
  testing
• 36:36
  and
• 36:36
  you
• 36:36
  don't
• 36:36
  know
• 36:36
  if
• 36:37
  you've
• 36:37
  got
• 36:37
  MTHFR
• 36:38
  issues
• 36:38
  or
• 36:38
  not,
• 36:39
  just
• 36:39
  get
• 36:40
  the
• 36:40
  methylated
• 36:41
  version
• 36:41
  and
• 36:42
  don't
• 36:42
  worry
• 36:43
  about
• 36:43
  it.
• 36:43
  At
• 36:45
  many
• 36:45
  stages
• 36:45
  of
• 36:46
  our
• 36:46
  life,
• 36:46
  B
• 36:46
  vitamins
• 36:47
  become
• 36:47
  an
• 36:47
  issue.
• 36:47
  But
• 36:48
  perimenopause
• 36:49
  for
• 36:49
  sure,
• 36:49
  when
• 36:50
  we
• 36:50
  can
• 36:51
  have
• 36:51
  more
• 36:51
  estrogen
• 36:52
  than
• 36:52
  progesterone.
• 36:53
  We
• 36:53
  really
• 36:53
  need
• 36:53
  to
• 36:53
  make
• 36:53
  sure
• 36:54
  that
• 36:54
  we're
• 36:54
  metabolizing
• 36:55
  everything
• 36:55
  properly.
• 36:57
  Absolutely.
• 36:58
  And
• 36:58
  you
• 36:58
  know,
• 36:58
  you
• 36:58
  bring
• 36:58
  up
• 36:59
  a
• 36:59
  good
• 36:59
  point
• 36:59
  when
• 36:59
  you
• 36:59
  say,
• 36:59
  like,
• 37:00
  you
• 37:00
  want
• 37:00
  to
• 37:00
  get
• 37:01
  supplements
• 37:01
  that
• 37:01
  are
• 37:01
  clean,
• 37:02
  you
• 37:02
  know,
• 37:03
  not
• 37:03
  contaminated,
• 37:04
  not
• 37:05
  with,
• 37:05
  you
• 37:05
  know,
• 37:05
  additives
• 37:06
  and
• 37:06
  things
• 37:06
  like
• 37:06
  that.
• 37:07
  So
• 37:07
  how
• 37:07
  do
• 37:07
  we
• 37:07
  know
• 37:08
  that
• 37:08
  we're
• 37:08
  actually
• 37:08
  getting
• 37:09
  clean
• 37:09
  supplements?
• 37:10
  Honestly,
• 37:11
  unless
• 37:12
  you
• 37:12
  sort
• 37:12
  of
• 37:12
  live
• 37:13
  and
• 37:13
  breathe
• 37:13
  in
• 37:13
  this
• 37:14
  world,
• 37:14
  it's
• 37:14
  very
• 37:14
  hard
• 37:14
  to
• 37:15
  know.
• 37:15
  Especially
• 37:15
  a
• 37:16
  lot
• 37:16
  of
• 37:16
  the
• 37:16
  supplement
• 37:17
  companies
• 37:18
  will
• 37:18
  get
• 37:18
  sold
• 37:19
  to
• 37:19
  larger
• 37:19
  companies
• 37:20
  and
• 37:20
  so
• 37:20
  you're
• 37:20
  not
• 37:21
  quite
• 37:21
  sure
• 37:21
  if
• 37:21
  the
• 37:21
  quality
• 37:22
  is
• 37:22
  still
• 37:22
  there.
• 37:23
  And
• 37:23
  so
• 37:24
  that's
• 37:24
  a
• 37:24
  good
• 37:24
  time
• 37:25
  to
• 37:25
  work
• 37:25
  with
• 37:25
  someone
• 37:26
  and
• 37:26
  to
• 37:27
  make
• 37:27
  sure
• 37:27
  that
• 37:28
  the
• 37:28
  brands
• 37:28
  that
• 37:29
  you're
• 37:29
  using
• 37:29
  are
• 37:30
  good
• 37:30
  ones,
• 37:31
  because
• 37:31
  it
• 37:31
  can
• 37:31
  be
• 37:31
  really
• 37:31
  hard
• 37:32
  to
• 37:32
  research.
• 37:32
  And
• 37:33
  I
• 37:33
  would
• 37:33
  say
• 37:33
  I
• 37:33
  definitely
• 37:34
  wouldn't
• 37:34
  buy
• 37:35
  supplements
• 37:35
  on
• 37:36
  Amazon,
• 37:37
  as
• 37:38
  much
• 37:38
  as
• 37:38
  it's
• 37:38
  a
• 37:38
  hassle
• 37:39
  to
• 37:39
  go
• 37:39
  directly
• 37:40
  to
• 37:40
  the
• 37:40
  suppliers.
• 37:40
  There's
• 37:41
  just
• 37:41
  so
• 37:41
  much
• 37:42
  fraud
• 37:43
  on
• 37:43
  there
• 37:43
  that
• 37:44
  there's
• 37:45
  no
• 37:45
  way
• 37:45
  to
• 37:46
  know
• 37:46
  what
• 37:46
  you're
• 37:46
  getting
• 37:46
  is
• 37:47
  actually
• 37:47
  from.
• 37:48
  I
• 37:48
  mean,
• 37:48
  let's
• 37:49
  say
• 37:49
  you've
• 37:49
  done
• 37:49
  your
• 37:49
  research
• 37:50
  and
• 37:50
  you've
• 37:50
  decided
• 37:50
  that
• 37:51
  Pure
• 37:52
  Encapsulations
• 37:53
  or
• 37:53
  Thorn
• 37:54
  or,
• 37:54
  you
• 37:55
  know,
• 37:55
  those
• 37:56
  are
• 37:56
  the
• 37:56
  ones
• 37:56
  you
• 37:56
  want
• 37:56
  to
• 37:57
  just
• 37:57
  go
• 37:57
  to
• 37:57
  their
• 37:58
  site
• 37:58
  direct
• 37:58
  or
• 37:58
  designs
• 37:59
  for
• 37:59
  Health,
• 38:00
  just
• 38:01
  go
• 38:01
  to
• 38:01
  their
• 38:01
  website
• 38:01
  directly
• 38:02
  and
• 38:03
  buy
• 38:03
  from
• 38:03
  them
• 38:03
  instead
• 38:04
  of
• 38:05
  third
• 38:05
  parties.
• 38:06
  Yeah,
• 38:06
  that's
• 38:07
  a
• 38:07
  good
• 38:07
  point.
• 38:07
  You
• 38:07
  don't
• 38:07
  know
• 38:08
  what
• 38:08
  you're
• 38:08
  getting
• 38:08
  sometimes
• 38:09
  with
• 38:09
  the
• 38:09
  bigger
• 38:10
  sites
• 38:11
  and
• 38:11
  everything,
• 38:11
  you
• 38:12
  know.
• 38:12
  Yeah,
• 38:13
  it's
• 38:13
  a
• 38:13
  lot
• 38:13
  for
• 38:13
  them
• 38:14
  to
• 38:14
  manage
• 38:15
  and
• 38:16
  it's
• 38:16
  nothing
• 38:16
  nefarious
• 38:16
  on
• 38:17
  their
• 38:17
  end.
• 38:17
  It's
• 38:17
  just
• 38:18
  they
• 38:18
  have
• 38:18
  so
• 38:18
  many
• 38:18
  vendors
• 38:19
  impossible
• 38:20
  to
• 38:20
  quality
• 38:20
  control.
• 38:22
  So
• 38:22
  instead
• 38:22
  of
• 38:22
  worrying
• 38:23
  about
• 38:23
  it,
• 38:23
  just
• 38:23
  go
• 38:24
  to
• 38:24
  the
• 38:24
  vendor
• 38:24
  that
• 38:24
  you
• 38:25
  like
• 38:25
  directly.
• 38:26
  Yes,
• 38:26
  absolutely.
• 38:27
  You
• 38:28
  connect
• 38:28
  hormone
• 38:29
  suppression
• 38:30
  with
• 38:30
  HPA
• 38:31
  axis
• 38:32
  dysfunction.
• 38:33
  So
• 38:33
  can
• 38:33
  you
• 38:34
  kind
• 38:34
  of
• 38:34
  explain
• 38:34
  to
• 38:34
  the
• 38:34
  audience
• 38:35
  what
• 38:35
  that
• 38:36
  is
• 38:36
  and
• 38:37
  how
• 38:37
  stress
• 38:38
  resilience
• 38:38
  changes
• 38:39
  after
• 38:39
  you're.
• 38:40
  You've
• 38:40
  been
• 38:40
  on
• 38:40
  the
• 38:40
  pill
• 38:40
  for
• 38:41
  so
• 38:41
  long.
• 38:42
  Well,
• 38:42
  being
• 38:43
  on
• 38:43
  the
• 38:43
  pill
• 38:43
  cuts
• 38:44
  off
• 38:45
  the
• 38:45
  HPA
• 38:46
  access.
• 38:46
  So
• 38:46
  we're.
• 38:47
  Or
• 38:47
  the
• 38:47
  HPO
• 38:48
  axis,
• 38:49
  hypothalamus,
• 38:50
  pituitary,
• 38:50
  ovarian
• 38:51
  access.
• 38:51
  So
• 38:52
  our
• 38:52
  brain
• 38:53
  and
• 38:53
  our
• 38:53
  ovaries
• 38:54
  are
• 38:54
  no
• 38:54
  longer
• 38:55
  having
• 38:55
  a
• 38:55
  conversation.
• 38:56
  So
• 38:56
  again,
• 38:57
  this
• 38:57
  is
• 38:57
  where
• 38:57
  people
• 38:57
  think
• 38:58
  that
• 38:58
  they
• 38:58
  are
• 38:59
  cycling,
• 39:00
  but
• 39:00
  they're
• 39:00
  not.
• 39:01
  They
• 39:01
  just
• 39:01
  cut
• 39:01
  off
• 39:02
  the
• 39:02
  connection.
• 39:02
  They're
• 39:03
  having
• 39:03
  an
• 39:03
  artificial
• 39:04
  bleed.
• 39:05
  And
• 39:05
  so
• 39:05
  your
• 39:06
  brain
• 39:06
  and
• 39:07
  your
• 39:07
  ovaries
• 39:08
  need
• 39:08
  to
• 39:09
  learn
• 39:09
  how
• 39:09
  to
• 39:10
  reconstruct,
• 39:10
  communicate,
• 39:11
  and
• 39:12
  that
• 39:12
  can
• 39:12
  take
• 39:13
  some
• 39:13
  time.
• 39:13
  It
• 39:14
  also
• 39:14
  decreases
• 39:15
  our
• 39:16
  mental
• 39:17
  resiliency,
• 39:18
  our
• 39:19
  nervous
• 39:19
  system
• 39:20
  is
• 39:20
  impacted.
• 39:21
  And
• 39:21
  again,
• 39:22
  this
• 39:22
  happens
• 39:23
  in
• 39:23
  perimenopause
• 39:24
  when
• 39:24
  we're
• 39:24
  losing
• 39:25
  Hormones
• 39:26
  and
• 39:26
  our
• 39:26
  ovaries
• 39:27
  and
• 39:27
  our
• 39:27
  brain
• 39:28
  are
• 39:28
  having
• 39:29
  really
• 39:29
  chaotic
• 39:31
  interactions.
• 39:32
  So
• 39:32
  you
• 39:33
  know,
• 39:33
  you
• 39:33
  have
• 39:33
  a
• 39:34
  bunch
• 39:34
  of
• 39:34
  estrogen
• 39:34
  and
• 39:35
  so
• 39:35
  your
• 39:35
  brain
• 39:35
  thinks,
• 39:36
  okay,
• 39:36
  we
• 39:36
  don't
• 39:36
  need
• 39:36
  estrogen,
• 39:37
  but
• 39:37
  then
• 39:37
  there's
• 39:37
  not
• 39:37
  enough.
• 39:38
  And
• 39:38
  then,
• 39:38
  you
• 39:38
  know,
• 39:39
  it's.
• 39:39
  So
• 39:39
  it's
• 39:40
  quite
• 39:40
  a
• 39:40
  few
• 39:40
  years
• 39:41
  of.
• 39:41
  That's
• 39:42
  why
• 39:42
  they
• 39:42
  say
• 39:43
  it's
• 39:43
  the,
• 39:43
  you
• 39:43
  know,
• 39:44
  cycle
• 39:44
  of
• 39:44
  chaos.
• 39:45
  It's
• 39:45
  the
• 39:45
  time
• 39:46
  of
• 39:46
  chaos.
• 39:47
  Because
• 39:47
  that
• 39:48
  brain
• 39:48
  ovary
• 39:49
  connection
• 39:49
  is
• 39:50
  just
• 39:50
  very
• 39:50
  confused
• 39:51
  because,
• 39:52
  you
• 39:52
  know,
• 39:52
  one
• 39:52
  month
• 39:52
  you
• 39:53
  might
• 39:53
  ovulate,
• 39:53
  the
• 39:54
  next
• 39:54
  month
• 39:54
  you
• 39:54
  won't
• 39:55
  want.
• 39:55
  So
• 39:56
  that,
• 39:56
  that
• 39:56
  means
• 39:56
  that
• 39:57
  one
• 39:57
  month
• 39:57
  your
• 39:58
  estrogen
• 39:58
  progesterone
• 39:59
  have
• 39:59
  a
• 39:59
  good
• 39:59
  balance.
• 40:00
  One
• 40:00
  month
• 40:01
  they
• 40:01
  don't.
• 40:01
  So
• 40:02
  you'll
• 40:03
  have
• 40:03
  more
• 40:03
  anxiety
• 40:03
  and
• 40:04
  less
• 40:04
  sleep
• 40:04
  that
• 40:04
  month.
• 40:05
  So
• 40:05
  it
• 40:06
  gets
• 40:06
  very
• 40:06
  hard
• 40:07
  to
• 40:07
  regulate.
• 40:08
  And
• 40:08
  so
• 40:08
  that's
• 40:09
  often
• 40:09
  when
• 40:10
  it's
• 40:10
  nice
• 40:10
  to
• 40:11
  add
• 40:11
  in
• 40:12
  a
• 40:12
  little
• 40:13
  bit
• 40:13
  of
• 40:13
  hormones
• 40:14
  or
• 40:14
  you
• 40:14
  can
• 40:14
  do
• 40:15
  adaptogens
• 40:17
  to
• 40:17
  help
• 40:17
  support
• 40:18
  the
• 40:19
  HPO
• 40:19
  access,
• 40:20
  the
• 40:20
  HPA
• 40:21
  access.
• 40:22
  So
• 40:22
  things
• 40:22
  like
• 40:23
  MACA
• 40:24
  can
• 40:24
  be
• 40:24
  very
• 40:24
  supportive.
• 40:27
  So
• 40:27
  these
• 40:27
  are
• 40:27
  things
• 40:27
  that
• 40:27
  I
• 40:28
  don't
• 40:29
  advise
• 40:29
  for
• 40:29
  if
• 40:30
  you're
• 40:30
  already
• 40:30
  on
• 40:31
  hrt,
• 40:31
  but
• 40:32
  if
• 40:32
  you're
• 40:32
  early
• 40:33
  to
• 40:33
  mid
• 40:33
  perimenopause
• 40:35
  and
• 40:36
  you
• 40:36
  want
• 40:36
  to
• 40:37
  calm
• 40:38
  the
• 40:39
  communication
• 40:39
  between
• 40:40
  your
• 40:40
  brain
• 40:41
  and
• 40:41
  your
• 40:41
  ovaries
• 40:42
  and
• 40:42
  kind
• 40:42
  of
• 40:42
  smooth
• 40:43
  things
• 40:43
  out,
• 40:44
  MAA
• 40:44
  can
• 40:44
  be
• 40:45
  very
• 40:45
  helpful.
• 40:46
  If
• 40:46
  you
• 40:47
  are
• 40:48
  ovulating
• 40:48
  some
• 40:49
  months
• 40:49
  and
• 40:49
  not
• 40:49
  others,
• 40:50
  Vitex
• 40:51
  can
• 40:51
  be
• 40:52
  very
• 40:52
  helpful.
• 40:53
  There's
• 40:54
  black,
• 40:54
  both
• 40:54
  black
• 40:55
  cohosh
• 40:55
  and
• 40:55
  but
• 40:56
  and
• 40:57
  maca
• 40:57
  can
• 40:57
  be
• 40:58
  great
• 40:58
  at
• 40:58
  helping
• 40:58
  with
• 40:59
  hot
• 40:59
  flashes.
• 41:00
  So,
• 41:01
  you
• 41:01
  know,
• 41:01
  maybe
• 41:01
  your
• 41:02
  estrogen
• 41:02
  is
• 41:02
  a
• 41:02
  little
• 41:02
  crazy
• 41:03
  and
• 41:03
  you're
• 41:03
  not
• 41:03
  wanting
• 41:04
  to
• 41:04
  add
• 41:04
  it
• 41:05
  in
• 41:06
  and
• 41:07
  you're
• 41:07
  not
• 41:07
  sure
• 41:08
  which
• 41:08
  month
• 41:09
  you're
• 41:09
  ovulating,
• 41:09
  which
• 41:09
  month
• 41:10
  you
• 41:10
  aren't.
• 41:10
  It's
• 41:11
  great
• 41:11
  to
• 41:11
  add
• 41:12
  in
• 41:12
  some
• 41:13
  herbs
• 41:13
  during
• 41:13
  that
• 41:14
  time.
• 41:14
  At
• 41:15
  some
• 41:15
  point,
• 41:15
  of
• 41:15
  course,
• 41:16
  we
• 41:16
  are
• 41:16
  going
• 41:16
  to
• 41:17
  stop
• 41:18
  ovulating
• 41:18
  and
• 41:19
  having
• 41:19
  menstrual
• 41:19
  cycles.
• 41:20
  And
• 41:20
  think
• 41:21
  of
• 41:21
  those
• 41:22
  herbs
• 41:22
  aren't
• 41:22
  really,
• 41:23
  you
• 41:23
  know,
• 41:23
  going
• 41:24
  to
• 41:24
  cut
• 41:24
  it.
• 41:24
  And
• 41:24
  it's
• 41:24
  an
• 41:24
  individual
• 41:25
  decision,
• 41:25
  you
• 41:26
  could
• 41:26
  say
• 41:26
  on
• 41:26
  them
• 41:27
  and
• 41:27
  choose
• 41:27
  not
• 41:27
  to
• 41:27
  do
• 41:28
  hrt,
• 41:30
  but
• 41:30
  they
• 41:30
  can
• 41:30
  be
• 41:31
  quite
• 41:32
  helpful.
• 41:32
  So
• 41:33
  I,
• 41:33
  you
• 41:33
  know,
• 41:33
  a
• 41:33
  lot
• 41:33
  of
• 41:34
  women
• 41:34
  just
• 41:34
  assume
• 41:34
  because
• 41:35
  they
• 41:35
  are
• 41:36
  having
• 41:37
  a
• 41:37
  period,
• 41:38
  a
• 41:38
  menstrual
• 41:38
  cycle
• 41:39
  every,
• 41:39
  well,
• 41:39
  I
• 41:40
  should
• 41:40
  say
• 41:40
  a
• 41:40
  period
• 41:41
  every
• 41:41
  month
• 41:42
  doesn't
• 41:42
  mean
• 41:42
  they're
• 41:43
  necessarily
• 41:43
  having
• 41:43
  a
• 41:43
  menstrual
• 41:44
  cycle
• 41:44
  if
• 41:44
  you're
• 41:44
  not
• 41:44
  ovulating
• 41:46
  and
• 41:47
  unless
• 41:47
  you're
• 41:48
  testing
• 41:48
  for
• 41:48
  ovulation,
• 41:50
  you
• 41:50
  won't
• 41:50
  really
• 41:50
  know.
• 41:52
  So
• 41:52
  that
• 41:52
  lack
• 41:53
  of
• 41:53
  all
• 41:53
  of
• 41:54
  those
• 41:54
  months
• 41:54
  that
• 41:54
  you
• 41:55
  don't
• 41:55
  ovulate,
• 41:55
  you
• 41:55
  obviously
• 41:56
  don't
• 41:56
  have
• 41:56
  any
• 41:57
  progesterone.
• 41:57
  And
• 41:58
  so
• 41:58
  that's
• 41:58
  going
• 41:58
  to
• 41:58
  really
• 41:59
  affect
• 41:59
  your
• 41:59
  mental
• 41:59
  health
• 42:01
  and
• 42:01
  your
• 42:01
  resiliency.
• 42:02
  So
• 42:03
  anything
• 42:03
  you
• 42:03
  can
• 42:04
  do
• 42:04
  to
• 42:04
  smooth
• 42:04
  out
• 42:05
  that
• 42:05
  hpa,
• 42:06
  HPO
• 42:06
  access
• 42:07
  is
• 42:07
  very
• 42:08
  helpful
• 42:08
  in
• 42:08
  those
• 42:08
  years.
• 42:09
  And
• 42:09
  it's
• 42:09
  really,
• 42:09
  it's
• 42:10
  a
• 42:10
  pain
• 42:10
  in
• 42:10
  the
• 42:10
  butt.
• 42:10
  I
• 42:10
  mean,
• 42:11
  just
• 42:11
  is,
• 42:11
  you
• 42:11
  know,
• 42:12
  to
• 42:12
  kind
• 42:12
  of
• 42:12
  keep
• 42:12
  track
• 42:14
  if
• 42:15
  you
• 42:15
  wanted
• 42:15
  to
• 42:16
  at
• 42:16
  that
• 42:16
  time,
• 42:16
  add
• 42:17
  in
• 42:17
  progesterone.
• 42:18
  There
• 42:18
  are
• 42:18
  tools,
• 42:18
  there
• 42:19
  are
• 42:19
  ovulation,
• 42:20
  you
• 42:20
  know,
• 42:20
  strips
• 42:21
  that
• 42:21
  you
• 42:21
  can
• 42:21
  pee
• 42:22
  on.
• 42:22
  I
• 42:22
  like
• 42:23
  OOVA
• 42:23
  a
• 42:23
  lot.
• 42:24
  And
• 42:24
  if
• 42:25
  you
• 42:25
  ovulated
• 42:26
  that
• 42:26
  month,
• 42:27
  you
• 42:27
  might
• 42:27
  not
• 42:27
  need
• 42:27
  progesterone.
• 42:29
  If
• 42:29
  you
• 42:29
  skipped
• 42:29
  it,
• 42:30
  you
• 42:30
  could
• 42:30
  add
• 42:31
  in
• 42:31
  some.
• 42:31
  But
• 42:31
  there's
• 42:32
  no
• 42:33
  exact
• 42:34
  science
• 42:34
  to
• 42:35
  this.
• 42:36
  Our
• 42:37
  cycles
• 42:37
  ebb
• 42:37
  and
• 42:38
  flow
• 42:38
  and
• 42:38
  things
• 42:39
  are,
• 42:39
  you
• 42:40
  know,
• 42:40
  not
• 42:41
  consistent
• 42:41
  those
• 42:42
  last
• 42:42
  couple
• 42:42
  years.
• 42:43
  So
• 42:44
  if
• 42:44
  you're,
• 42:44
  if
• 42:45
  you're
• 42:45
  up
• 42:45
  for
• 42:45
  the
• 42:45
  challenge
• 42:46
  of
• 42:46
  kind
• 42:46
  of
• 42:47
  monitoring
• 42:47
  and
• 42:49
  you
• 42:49
  can
• 42:50
  smooth
• 42:50
  it
• 42:50
  out
• 42:50
  quite
• 42:50
  a.
• 42:51
  Bit,
• 42:51
  that's
• 42:51
  actually
• 42:52
  great
• 42:53
  advice
• 42:53
  because
• 42:53
  I've
• 42:53
  had
• 42:54
  several
• 42:55
  women
• 42:56
  write
• 42:56
  into
• 42:56
  the
• 42:56
  show
• 42:57
  reach
• 42:58
  out
• 42:58
  via
• 42:58
  DMs
• 42:59
  asking
• 42:59
  about
• 43:00
  natural
• 43:01
  kind
• 43:01
  of
• 43:01
  therapies
• 43:02
  to
• 43:02
  try
• 43:03
  to
• 43:03
  balance
• 43:03
  their
• 43:03
  hormones
• 43:04
  at
• 43:04
  this
• 43:05
  time
• 43:05
  of
• 43:05
  life.
• 43:06
  Some
• 43:06
  women
• 43:06
  have
• 43:06
  had
• 43:07
  cancer
• 43:07
  and
• 43:07
  they're
• 43:08
  not
• 43:08
  really
• 43:08
  able
• 43:09
  to
• 43:09
  take
• 43:09
  HRTs.
• 43:10
  I
• 43:10
  have
• 43:10
  actually
• 43:10
  a
• 43:10
  friend
• 43:11
  who
• 43:11
  has
• 43:11
  something
• 43:11
  called
• 43:12
  lynch
• 43:12
  syndrome
• 43:13
  or
• 43:13
  which
• 43:13
  makes
• 43:13
  her
• 43:14
  prone
• 43:14
  to
• 43:14
  a
• 43:15
  number
• 43:15
  of
• 43:15
  cancers
• 43:16
  and
• 43:16
  she
• 43:17
  was
• 43:17
  actually
• 43:17
  recommended
• 43:18
  not
• 43:18
  to
• 43:18
  take
• 43:18
  hrts
• 43:19
  too.
• 43:20
  So
• 43:20
  for
• 43:20
  somebody
• 43:21
  like
• 43:21
  that
• 43:21
  who's
• 43:22
  just
• 43:22
  going
• 43:22
  to
• 43:22
  try
• 43:22
  to
• 43:22
  wing
• 43:23
  it
• 43:23
  like,
• 43:24
  you
• 43:24
  know,
• 43:25
  the
• 43:25
  natural
• 43:25
  way,
• 43:25
  I
• 43:26
  guess,
• 43:26
  although,
• 43:26
  you
• 43:27
  know,
• 43:27
  bioidentical
• 43:28
  hormones
• 43:29
  could
• 43:29
  be
• 43:29
  considered
• 43:30
  natural
• 43:30
  also,
• 43:31
  if
• 43:31
  they
• 43:31
  weren't
• 43:32
  going
• 43:32
  to
• 43:32
  go
• 43:32
  that
• 43:32
  route,
• 43:33
  what
• 43:33
  would
• 43:33
  you
• 43:34
  say,
• 43:34
  would
• 43:34
  you
• 43:34
  say
• 43:34
  to
• 43:34
  kind
• 43:35
  of
• 43:35
  continue
• 43:35
  with
• 43:35
  those,
• 43:36
  those
• 43:36
  things
• 43:36
  that
• 43:36
  you
• 43:37
  mentioned
• 43:37
  or
• 43:37
  would
• 43:38
  you
• 43:39
  put
• 43:39
  some
• 43:39
  more
• 43:39
  items
• 43:40
  on
• 43:40
  the
• 43:40
  list?
• 43:41
  I'd
• 43:41
  probably
• 43:42
  add
• 43:42
  in
• 43:43
  some
• 43:43
  organic
• 43:44
  non
• 43:44
  GMO
• 43:45
  fermented
• 43:46
  soy,
• 43:48
  just,
• 43:48
  you
• 43:49
  know,
• 43:49
  phyto
• 43:50
  estrogen.
• 43:51
  Flax
• 43:51
  seeds
• 43:52
  can
• 43:53
  be
• 43:53
  helpful.
• 43:54
  And
• 43:54
  also,
• 43:55
  even
• 43:55
  if
• 43:56
  you
• 43:56
  have
• 43:56
  a
• 43:56
  history
• 43:57
  of
• 43:57
  cancer
• 43:58
  or
• 43:58
  at
• 43:58
  significant
• 43:59
  risk,
• 43:59
  you
• 44:00
  can
• 44:00
  still
• 44:01
  protect
• 44:01
  your
• 44:01
  vaginal
• 44:02
  health
• 44:02
  by
• 44:03
  doing
• 44:03
  a
• 44:03
  low
• 44:03
  dose
• 44:04
  vaginal
• 44:05
  estrogen
• 44:06
  because
• 44:07
  that
• 44:07
  is
• 44:07
  one
• 44:08
  of
• 44:08
  the
• 44:08
  number
• 44:08
  one
• 44:08
  causes
• 44:09
  of
• 44:09
  death
• 44:09
  later
• 44:09
  in
• 44:10
  life.
• 44:10
  Life
• 44:10
  is
• 44:11
  urosepsis.
• 44:12
  Oh,
• 44:12
  what?
• 44:14
  Wait,
• 44:14
  tell
• 44:14
  us
• 44:15
  more.
• 44:15
  Like
• 44:15
  what?
• 44:16
  Tell
• 44:16
  me
• 44:16
  the
• 44:16
  whole
• 44:16
  thing.
• 44:17
  Like
• 44:17
  what,
• 44:17
  what,
• 44:17
  what?
• 44:19
  It
• 44:19
  often
• 44:19
  happens
• 44:20
  to
• 44:20
  women
• 44:20
  in
• 44:21
  nursing
• 44:21
  homes
• 44:22
  and
• 44:22
  they
• 44:22
  just,
• 44:22
  it's
• 44:23
  just
• 44:23
  the
• 44:23
  saddest
• 44:24
  things.
• 44:25
  So
• 44:25
  you,
• 44:25
  or
• 44:25
  you
• 44:25
  might
• 44:26
  notice
• 44:26
  it
• 44:26
  with,
• 44:27
  you
• 44:27
  know,
• 44:27
  grandma
• 44:28
  or
• 44:29
  elderly
• 44:29
  people
• 44:30
  in
• 44:30
  your
• 44:30
  life
• 44:30
  that
• 44:30
  they
• 44:30
  get
• 44:31
  a
• 44:31
  lot
• 44:31
  of
• 44:31
  UTIs.
• 44:33
  And
• 44:33
  so
• 44:34
  when
• 44:34
  we
• 44:34
  lose
• 44:35
  estrogen,
• 44:36
  we
• 44:36
  lose
• 44:36
  our
• 44:37
  microbiome
• 44:37
  diversity
• 44:38
  and
• 44:38
  the
• 44:38
  ph
• 44:39
  changes.
• 44:40
  So
• 44:41
  not
• 44:41
  only
• 44:42
  do
• 44:42
  you
• 44:42
  have
• 44:43
  risk
• 44:43
  for
• 44:43
  prolapse
• 44:44
  and
• 44:44
  atrophy
• 44:46
  and
• 44:46
  Dryness
• 44:47
  that
• 44:47
  can
• 44:47
  be
• 44:47
  so
• 44:47
  sore
• 44:48
  it's
• 44:48
  hard
• 44:48
  to
• 44:48
  sit
• 44:48
  for
• 44:49
  women.
• 44:50
  But
• 44:50
  that
• 44:50
  can
• 44:51
  also
• 44:51
  lead
• 44:52
  to
• 44:52
  a
• 44:52
  deathly
• 44:53
  sepsis
• 44:54
  infection.
• 44:55
  And
• 44:55
  so
• 44:55
  these
• 44:56
  women
• 44:56
  will
• 44:56
  often
• 44:57
  be
• 44:57
  given
• 44:57
  antibiotic
• 44:59
  after
• 44:59
  antibiotic
• 45:00
  and
• 45:00
  it's
• 45:01
  not
• 45:01
  successful
• 45:02
  really.
• 45:02
  The
• 45:02
  most
• 45:02
  successful
• 45:03
  is
• 45:03
  to
• 45:04
  apply
• 45:04
  a
• 45:04
  low
• 45:04
  dose
• 45:05
  vaginal
• 45:05
  cream
• 45:05
  locally
• 45:06
  into
• 45:06
  the
• 45:06
  vagina.
• 45:07
  It's
• 45:07
  very
• 45:08
  successful
• 45:08
  at
• 45:08
  getting
• 45:08
  rid
• 45:08
  of
• 45:09
  UTIs
• 45:10
  and
• 45:10
  preventing
• 45:11
  urosepsis
• 45:12
  and
• 45:12
  preventing
• 45:13
  a
• 45:13
  whole
• 45:13
  lot
• 45:14
  of
• 45:14
  discomfort.
• 45:14
  And
• 45:15
  it's
• 45:15
  not
• 45:15
  systemic.
• 45:16
  So
• 45:17
  even
• 45:17
  if
• 45:17
  you
• 45:18
  had
• 45:18
  breast
• 45:18
  cancer,
• 45:20
  it's
• 45:20
  not
• 45:20
  systemic.
• 45:21
  And
• 45:22
  I
• 45:22
  should
• 45:23
  make
• 45:23
  a
• 45:24
  differentiating
• 45:24
  point
• 45:25
  point.
• 45:25
  So
• 45:25
  it's
• 45:26
  not
• 45:26
  just
• 45:26
  that
• 45:26
  it's
• 45:27
  in
• 45:27
  the
• 45:27
  vagina,
• 45:28
  the,
• 45:28
  the
• 45:28
  difference
• 45:29
  is
• 45:29
  the
• 45:29
  dose.
• 45:30
  So
• 45:30
  if
• 45:30
  you
• 45:31
  had
• 45:31
  a
• 45:32
  higher
• 45:32
  concentration
• 45:33
  of
• 45:33
  a
• 45:33
  topical
• 45:34
  estrogen,
• 45:34
  but
• 45:34
  you
• 45:35
  applied
• 45:35
  it
• 45:35
  vaginally,
• 45:36
  that
• 45:37
  would
• 45:37
  still
• 45:37
  systemic.
• 45:38
  So
• 45:39
  it's
• 45:39
  a
• 45:39
  low
• 45:39
  concentration
• 45:41
  and
• 45:41
  you
• 45:41
  apply
• 45:41
  it
• 45:41
  directly
• 45:42
  to
• 45:42
  the
• 45:42
  vagina
• 45:43
  to
• 45:43
  protect
• 45:44
  your
• 45:44
  vaginal
• 45:44
  health.
• 45:45
  And
• 45:45
  I
• 45:46
  recommend
• 45:46
  this
• 45:46
  for
• 45:47
  any
• 45:47
  woman
• 45:48
  really
• 45:48
  40
• 45:49
  and
• 45:49
  above.
• 45:50
  I
• 45:50
  think
• 45:50
  a
• 45:51
  couple
• 45:51
  times
• 45:51
  a
• 45:51
  week
• 45:51
  it's
• 45:52
  time
• 45:52
  to
• 45:52
  start
• 45:52
  taking
• 45:52
  care
• 45:53
  of
• 45:53
  your
• 45:53
  vagina.
• 45:54
  Because
• 45:54
  if
• 45:54
  you
• 45:55
  notice
• 45:56
  the
• 45:56
  skin
• 45:56
  on
• 45:56
  our
• 45:57
  faces
• 45:58
  starts
• 45:59
  sagging
• 46:00
  significantly,
• 46:01
  40
• 46:02
  onward.
• 46:03
  And
• 46:04
  it's
• 46:04
  the
• 46:04
  same
• 46:04
  thing
• 46:04
  with
• 46:05
  our
• 46:05
  vaginas,
• 46:06
  right.
• 46:06
  We
• 46:06
  lose
• 46:07
  our
• 46:07
  elasticity,
• 46:07
  our
• 46:08
  collagen.
• 46:09
  So
• 46:09
  I
• 46:10
  think
• 46:10
  of
• 46:10
  taking
• 46:11
  care
• 46:11
  of
• 46:11
  your
• 46:12
  vagina
• 46:12
  the
• 46:12
  same
• 46:13
  way
• 46:13
  you
• 46:13
  think
• 46:13
  of
• 46:13
  taking
• 46:13
  care
• 46:14
  of
• 46:14
  your
• 46:14
  face.
• 46:14
  You
• 46:14
  want
• 46:15
  to
• 46:15
  put
• 46:15
  on
• 46:15
  face
• 46:15
  cream,
• 46:16
  do
• 46:17
  the
• 46:17
  things.
• 46:18
  But,
• 46:19
  but
• 46:19
  your
• 46:19
  best
• 46:20
  vagina
• 46:20
  face
• 46:20
  forward.
• 46:21
  That's
• 46:22
  right.
• 46:24
  Maybe
• 46:25
  somebody's
• 46:25
  looking
• 46:25
  at
• 46:25
  it.
• 46:28
  And
• 46:28
  here's.
• 46:29
  And
• 46:29
  even
• 46:29
  if
• 46:29
  you
• 46:30
  don't
• 46:30
  have
• 46:30
  a
• 46:30
  partner
• 46:31
  and
• 46:31
  you
• 46:31
  don't
• 46:32
  care
• 46:32
  about
• 46:33
  that
• 46:33
  sort,
• 46:34
  it's,
• 46:34
  it's
• 46:34
  really
• 46:35
  to
• 46:35
  protect
• 46:36
  you
• 46:37
  against
• 46:37
  UTIs,
• 46:38
  €
• 46:39
  sepsis
• 46:39
  and
• 46:39
  discomfort.
• 46:40
  So
• 46:40
  it
• 46:41
  doesn't
• 46:41
  matter
• 46:41
  if
• 46:42
  you
• 46:42
  know
• 46:42
  you
• 46:42
  have
• 46:43
  a
• 46:43
  partner
• 46:43
  or
• 46:43
  not.
• 46:43
  It's
• 46:44
  really
• 46:44
  about
• 46:45
  your
• 46:45
  health.
• 46:46
  Absolutely.
• 46:47
  And
• 46:47
  women
• 46:47
  need
• 46:47
  it
• 46:47
  younger
• 46:48
  than
• 46:48
  they
• 46:48
  think
• 46:48
  they
• 46:49
  do.
• 46:49
  Do
• 46:49
  you
• 46:50
  think
• 46:50
  it
• 46:50
  makes
• 46:50
  sex
• 46:50
  more
• 46:51
  enjoyable?
• 46:53
  So
• 46:53
  it
• 46:53
  does.
• 46:54
  It
• 46:54
  is
• 46:55
  lubricating.
• 46:56
  You
• 46:56
  can
• 46:56
  do
• 46:58
  estriol
• 46:59
  or
• 46:59
  you
• 46:59
  can
• 46:59
  do
• 47:00
  estradiol.
• 47:01
  Estriol
• 47:02
  tends
• 47:02
  to
• 47:02
  be
• 47:02
  more
• 47:03
  lubricating,
• 47:03
  but
• 47:03
  then
• 47:03
  you
• 47:04
  have
• 47:04
  to
• 47:04
  worry
• 47:04
  about
• 47:04
  transference.
• 47:06
  But
• 47:06
  it
• 47:06
  has
• 47:07
  sort
• 47:07
  of
• 47:08
  a
• 47:08
  compounding
• 47:08
  effect.
• 47:09
  So
• 47:10
  you
• 47:10
  wouldn't
• 47:11
  want
• 47:11
  to
• 47:11
  take
• 47:11
  it
• 47:11
  every
• 47:11
  day.
• 47:12
  But
• 47:12
  let's
• 47:12
  say
• 47:12
  if
• 47:12
  you
• 47:12
  take
• 47:13
  it
• 47:13
  on
• 47:13
  a
• 47:13
  Monday,
• 47:14
  it
• 47:14
  would
• 47:14
  help
• 47:15
  with
• 47:15
  Tuesday's
• 47:16
  sex.
• 47:16
  You
• 47:16
  just
• 47:16
  wouldn't
• 47:16
  want
• 47:17
  to
• 47:17
  take
• 47:17
  it
• 47:17
  right
• 47:17
  before
• 47:17
  as
• 47:18
  a
• 47:18
  lubricant.
• 47:20
  DHEA
• 47:22
  applies.
• 47:22
  The
• 47:23
  vagina
• 47:23
  helps
• 47:25
  also
• 47:25
  with
• 47:26
  elastin
• 47:27
  and
• 47:28
  muscle
• 47:29
  and
• 47:29
  all
• 47:29
  of
• 47:29
  that.
• 47:29
  And
• 47:30
  so.
• 47:30
  And
• 47:30
  men
• 47:30
  can
• 47:30
  take
• 47:31
  DHEA
• 47:31
  the
• 47:31
  same
• 47:32
  way
• 47:32
  women
• 47:32
  can.
• 47:32
  So
• 47:32
  that
• 47:32
  one
• 47:33
  I
• 47:33
  Wouldn't
• 47:33
  worry
• 47:33
  about
• 47:33
  if
• 47:34
  you
• 47:34
  wanted
• 47:34
  to
• 47:34
  apply
• 47:34
  some
• 47:35
  dhea.
• 47:36
  Oh,
• 47:36
  okay.
• 47:36
  And
• 47:37
  men
• 47:37
  can
• 47:37
  also
• 47:37
  take
• 47:38
  it.
• 47:38
  Yeah.
• 47:38
  So
• 47:38
  transference
• 47:39
  wouldn't
• 47:39
  be
• 47:39
  a
• 47:39
  big
• 47:39
  issue.
• 47:40
  Okay.
• 47:41
  So
• 47:41
  that's
• 47:41
  not
• 47:41
  a
• 47:41
  big
• 47:41
  deal.
• 47:42
  I
• 47:42
  know
• 47:43
  that's.
• 47:43
  I
• 47:43
  mean,
• 47:43
  all
• 47:43
  the
• 47:44
  things.
• 47:44
  There's
• 47:44
  so
• 47:44
  many
• 47:45
  body
• 47:45
  changes
• 47:45
  right
• 47:46
  now.
• 47:46
  It's
• 47:46
  like
• 47:47
  trying
• 47:47
  to
• 47:47
  keep
• 47:47
  up
• 47:47
  with
• 47:48
  everything
• 47:48
  is
• 47:49
  crazy.
• 47:50
  It's
• 47:51
  very
• 47:51
  overwhelming
• 47:52
  and
• 47:53
  there
• 47:53
  are
• 47:53
  a
• 47:53
  lot
• 47:54
  of
• 47:54
  options.
• 47:55
  And
• 47:55
  so
• 47:55
  it
• 47:56
  makes
• 47:56
  it
• 47:56
  challenging
• 47:57
  to
• 47:57
  figure
• 47:57
  out
• 47:57
  what
• 47:58
  options.
• 47:58
  Right.
• 47:58
  For
• 47:59
  you.
• 47:59
  And
• 48:00
  it's
• 48:00
  also,
• 48:01
  things
• 48:01
  can
• 48:01
  change
• 48:02
  quickly
• 48:03
  from,
• 48:03
  you
• 48:04
  know,
• 48:04
  every
• 48:04
  couple
• 48:04
  months.
• 48:05
  And
• 48:05
  so
• 48:05
  even
• 48:06
  if
• 48:06
  you
• 48:06
  are,
• 48:06
  you've
• 48:07
  got
• 48:07
  a
• 48:07
  great
• 48:08
  practitioner
• 48:08
  and
• 48:09
  you're
• 48:09
  on
• 48:09
  HRT
• 48:10
  and
• 48:10
  everything's
• 48:11
  going
• 48:11
  along
• 48:12
  great,
• 48:12
  and
• 48:12
  then
• 48:13
  one
• 48:13
  day,
• 48:13
  all
• 48:13
  of
• 48:13
  a
• 48:13
  sudden,
• 48:13
  you
• 48:14
  start
• 48:14
  gaining
• 48:14
  weight
• 48:15
  and
• 48:16
  you're
• 48:16
  not
• 48:16
  feeling
• 48:16
  as
• 48:17
  well.
• 48:17
  Well,
• 48:17
  it's
• 48:17
  time.
• 48:18
  Then
• 48:18
  you
• 48:18
  got
• 48:18
  to
• 48:18
  go
• 48:19
  back
• 48:19
  and
• 48:19
  change
• 48:19
  your
• 48:19
  dose
• 48:20
  and
• 48:21
  dose
• 48:21
  of
• 48:21
  what?
• 48:22
  Estrogen.
• 48:23
  Progesterone.
• 48:23
  Which
• 48:23
  one
• 48:24
  is
• 48:24
  it?
• 48:25
  So
• 48:25
  it's
• 48:26
  no
• 48:27
  fun,
• 48:27
  really.
• 48:27
  I
• 48:28
  mean,
• 48:28
  at
• 48:28
  some
• 48:29
  point
• 48:29
  you
• 48:29
  do
• 48:29
  get
• 48:29
  to
• 48:29
  a
• 48:30
  point
• 48:30
  where
• 48:30
  you're
• 48:30
  further
• 48:31
  out
• 48:31
  and
• 48:32
  you've
• 48:32
  been
• 48:32
  an
• 48:32
  HRT
• 48:33
  for
• 48:33
  a
• 48:33
  while,
• 48:33
  you
• 48:33
  found
• 48:33
  your
• 48:34
  dose
• 48:34
  and
• 48:34
  things
• 48:35
  are
• 48:35
  good,
• 48:35
  but
• 48:36
  for
• 48:36
  the
• 48:36
  transition
• 48:37
  and
• 48:38
  the
• 48:38
  few
• 48:38
  years
• 48:38
  after,
• 48:39
  it's.
• 48:39
  You
• 48:40
  really
• 48:40
  have
• 48:40
  to
• 48:40
  keep
• 48:40
  after.
• 48:41
  And
• 48:41
  there's
• 48:41
  nothing
• 48:42
  terribly
• 48:43
  fun
• 48:43
  about
• 48:43
  that.
• 48:45
  Exactly.
• 48:46
  How
• 48:46
  was
• 48:47
  when
• 48:47
  you
• 48:47
  got
• 48:47
  on
• 48:48
  hrts?
• 48:49
  Was
• 48:49
  it
• 48:49
  a
• 48:49
  journey
• 48:50
  to
• 48:50
  find
• 48:50
  the
• 48:50
  right
• 48:51
  dose?
• 48:51
  How
• 48:51
  was
• 48:52
  that
• 48:52
  for
• 48:52
  you?
• 48:53
  At
• 48:54
  first?
• 48:54
  It
• 48:54
  was
• 48:54
  great.
• 48:55
  At
• 48:56
  first
• 48:56
  it
• 48:56
  was
• 48:56
  pretty
• 48:56
  easy.
• 48:58
  I
• 48:58
  was
• 48:58
  still
• 48:59
  cycling,
• 48:59
  but
• 48:59
  I
• 48:59
  wasn't
• 49:00
  ovulating
• 49:00
  every
• 49:01
  month
• 49:02
  and
• 49:02
  I
• 49:02
  was
• 49:02
  taking
• 49:04
  a
• 49:04
  pretty
• 49:05
  low
• 49:05
  dose
• 49:05
  topical
• 49:06
  estrogen
• 49:07
  and
• 49:07
  I
• 49:07
  was
• 49:07
  taking
• 49:08
  progesterone
• 49:09
  half
• 49:09
  the
• 49:09
  month.
• 49:10
  Everything
• 49:10
  was
• 49:11
  going
• 49:11
  fine.
• 49:11
  And
• 49:12
  then
• 49:13
  maybe
• 49:13
  10
• 49:14
  months
• 49:14
  into
• 49:14
  it,
• 49:15
  I
• 49:15
  got
• 49:16
  deeper
• 49:16
  into
• 49:17
  late
• 49:18
  perimenopause.
• 49:19
  So
• 49:19
  I'm.
• 49:19
  I'm
• 49:20
  still
• 49:20
  cycling,
• 49:21
  but
• 49:22
  it's
• 49:22
  erratic.
• 49:23
  Still
• 49:23
  ovulate,
• 49:24
  but
• 49:24
  erratic.
• 49:25
  So
• 49:25
  I'm
• 49:25
  definitely
• 49:26
  late
• 49:26
  perimenopause,
• 49:27
  but
• 49:28
  I
• 49:28
  needed
• 49:29
  more
• 49:29
  estrogen
• 49:30
  because
• 49:30
  all
• 49:30
  of
• 49:31
  the
• 49:31
  sudden
• 49:31
  I
• 49:32
  gained
• 49:32
  10
• 49:32
  pounds
• 49:33
  just
• 49:33
  out
• 49:34
  of
• 49:34
  nowhere.
• 49:35
  And
• 49:37
  I
• 49:37
  mean,
• 49:37
  it
• 49:37
  was
• 49:38
  out
• 49:38
  of
• 49:38
  nowhere
• 49:39
  and
• 49:39
  I
• 49:39
  was
• 49:39
  eating
• 49:39
  the
• 49:39
  protein
• 49:40
  and
• 49:40
  lifting
• 49:40
  the
• 49:40
  weights
• 49:41
  and
• 49:41
  doing
• 49:41
  all
• 49:41
  the
• 49:41
  thing,
• 49:41
  and
• 49:41
  I'd
• 49:41
  wake
• 49:42
  up
• 49:42
  the
• 49:42
  next
• 49:42
  day
• 49:42
  and
• 49:42
  another
• 49:43
  pound.
• 49:43
  Another
• 49:43
  pound.
• 49:46
  Yeah,
• 49:46
  I
• 49:46
  know.
• 49:48
  And
• 49:48
  then
• 49:49
  I.
• 49:50
  So
• 49:50
  I
• 49:51
  upped.
• 49:51
  I
• 49:52
  talked
• 49:52
  to
• 49:52
  my
• 49:52
  doctor
• 49:53
  and
• 49:53
  said,
• 49:53
  listen,
• 49:53
  I
• 49:54
  think
• 49:54
  what
• 49:54
  is
• 49:54
  going
• 49:55
  on
• 49:55
  is
• 49:55
  that
• 49:55
  I
• 49:56
  just
• 49:56
  lost
• 49:56
  more
• 49:57
  estrogen
• 49:57
  than
• 49:57
  I
• 49:58
  had
• 49:58
  last
• 49:58
  year
• 49:58
  and
• 49:58
  we
• 49:59
  need
• 49:59
  to
• 49:59
  up
• 49:59
  it.
• 49:59
  And
• 50:00
  she
• 50:00
  said,
• 50:00
  I.
• 50:00
  I
• 50:01
  think
• 50:01
  you're
• 50:01
  right.
• 50:01
  I
• 50:01
  think
• 50:01
  that
• 50:01
  sounds
• 50:02
  good.
• 50:02
  So
• 50:03
  we
• 50:03
  changed
• 50:03
  the
• 50:03
  concentration
• 50:04
  and
• 50:04
  within
• 50:05
  like
• 50:05
  two
• 50:06
  weeks,
• 50:06
  I
• 50:07
  mean,
• 50:07
  it
• 50:07
  was
• 50:07
  like
• 50:08
  Boom.
• 50:09
  I,
• 50:09
  my
• 50:10
  body
• 50:10
  comp
• 50:10
  was
• 50:10
  back.
• 50:12
  It
• 50:12
  was,
• 50:12
  it
• 50:12
  was
• 50:13
  pretty
• 50:13
  great.
• 50:15
  So
• 50:15
  other
• 50:15
  than
• 50:16
  that,
• 50:16
  I
• 50:16
  would
• 50:16
  say
• 50:17
  the
• 50:17
  transition
• 50:18
  went
• 50:18
  pretty
• 50:19
  well.
• 50:19
  I
• 50:19
  waited
• 50:20
  a
• 50:20
  year
• 50:20
  to
• 50:21
  add
• 50:21
  in
• 50:22
  testosterone.
• 50:23
  My
• 50:23
  testosterone
• 50:23
  has
• 50:24
  always
• 50:24
  been
• 50:24
  very
• 50:25
  low.
• 50:26
  Even
• 50:27
  in
• 50:27
  my
• 50:28
  early
• 50:28
  40s
• 50:28
  it
• 50:29
  was
• 50:29
  very
• 50:29
  low.
• 50:30
  But
• 50:31
  I
• 50:31
  never
• 50:31
  wanted
• 50:32
  to
• 50:32
  supplement
• 50:32
  it
• 50:33
  with
• 50:33
  it.
• 50:33
  And
• 50:33
  also
• 50:34
  timing
• 50:34
  wise,
• 50:34
  it
• 50:35
  competes
• 50:35
  for
• 50:36
  the
• 50:36
  estrogen
• 50:37
  receptor.
• 50:37
  So
• 50:39
  if
• 50:39
  you
• 50:39
  block
• 50:40
  your
• 50:40
  estrogen
• 50:40
  with
• 50:40
  testosterone
• 50:41
  too
• 50:41
  early,
• 50:42
  it
• 50:42
  can
• 50:42
  lead
• 50:42
  to
• 50:42
  weight
• 50:43
  gain.
• 50:44
  So
• 50:45
  that
• 50:45
  is
• 50:46
  important.
• 50:46
  But
• 50:47
  I
• 50:47
  finally,
• 50:48
  when
• 50:48
  I
• 50:48
  felt
• 50:48
  like
• 50:49
  everything
• 50:49
  else
• 50:49
  was
• 50:50
  the
• 50:50
  way
• 50:50
  it
• 50:50
  should
• 50:51
  be,
• 50:51
  my
• 50:51
  estrogen
• 50:51
  levels,
• 50:52
  progesterone,
• 50:52
  everything
• 50:53
  was
• 50:53
  good.
• 50:53
  I
• 50:53
  did
• 50:53
  add
• 50:54
  in
• 50:54
  a
• 50:55
  little
• 50:55
  bit
• 50:55
  of
• 50:55
  testosterone
• 50:57
  and
• 50:57
  I
• 50:58
  felt
• 50:58
  great.
• 50:59
  And
• 50:59
  I
• 50:59
  noticed
• 51:01
  right
• 51:01
  away
• 51:01
  and
• 51:01
  testosterone
• 51:02
  is
• 51:03
  one
• 51:03
  that
• 51:03
  often
• 51:04
  women
• 51:04
  with
• 51:04
  a
• 51:05
  history
• 51:05
  of
• 51:06
  cancer,
• 51:07
  they
• 51:07
  can
• 51:07
  still
• 51:07
  take
• 51:08
  testosterone.
• 51:08
  It's
• 51:09
  a
• 51:09
  very
• 51:09
  breast
• 51:09
  protective
• 51:10
  which
• 51:11
  most
• 51:11
  people
• 51:12
  don't
• 51:12
  realize.
• 51:14
  So
• 51:14
  for,
• 51:15
  for
• 51:15
  women
• 51:16
  who
• 51:16
  can't
• 51:16
  take
• 51:17
  estrogen
• 51:17
  for
• 51:17
  whatever
• 51:18
  reason,
• 51:18
  they
• 51:19
  can
• 51:19
  still
• 51:19
  consider
• 51:19
  the
• 51:20
  low
• 51:20
  dose
• 51:21
  vaginal
• 51:21
  estrogen
• 51:22
  and
• 51:22
  testosterone
• 51:24
  and
• 51:24
  often
• 51:24
  progesterone.
• 51:26
  There's
• 51:27
  a
• 51:27
  lot
• 51:27
  of
• 51:27
  different
• 51:28
  ways
• 51:28
  you
• 51:29
  can
• 51:29
  play
• 51:29
  around
• 51:29
  with
• 51:29
  it.
• 51:30
  I
• 51:30
  just,
• 51:30
  for
• 51:30
  the
• 51:30
  moment
• 51:31
  I'm
• 51:31
  in
• 51:31
  a
• 51:31
  good
• 51:31
  place.
• 51:32
  But
• 51:32
  I
• 51:32
  know
• 51:32
  that
• 51:32
  it
• 51:33
  can
• 51:33
  change
• 51:33
  at
• 51:34
  any
• 51:34
  time.
• 51:34
  That's
• 51:35
  the
• 51:35
  thing.
• 51:35
  I
• 51:35
  feel
• 51:35
  like
• 51:35
  it's
• 51:36
  so
• 51:36
  trial
• 51:36
  and
• 51:36
  error
• 51:37
  and
• 51:37
  it
• 51:37
  ebbs
• 51:38
  and
• 51:38
  flows
• 51:38
  like
• 51:38
  you're
• 51:39
  saying,
• 51:39
  you
• 51:39
  know,
• 51:39
  it
• 51:39
  can
• 51:39
  be
• 51:40
  one
• 51:40
  way
• 51:41
  one
• 51:41
  day
• 51:41
  and
• 51:41
  totally
• 51:42
  different
• 51:42
  in
• 51:42
  like
• 51:43
  a
• 51:43
  month.
• 51:43
  So
• 51:44
  for
• 51:44
  a
• 51:44
  woman
• 51:44
  who's
• 51:45
  never
• 51:45
  done
• 51:45
  HRTs
• 51:46
  but
• 51:46
  wants
• 51:47
  to
• 51:47
  start,
• 51:47
  she,
• 51:48
  and
• 51:48
  she
• 51:48
  goes
• 51:48
  into
• 51:49
  her
• 51:49
  doctor,
• 51:49
  you
• 51:49
  know,
• 51:50
  she
• 51:50
  probably
• 51:50
  gets
• 51:51
  her,
• 51:51
  you
• 51:51
  know,
• 51:51
  hormonal
• 51:52
  testing
• 51:53
  done
• 51:53
  via
• 51:54
  blood
• 51:54
  tests
• 51:54
  and
• 51:55
  things
• 51:55
  like
• 51:55
  that.
• 51:56
  Is
• 51:56
  there
• 51:56
  anything
• 51:56
  else
• 51:56
  she
• 51:57
  should
• 51:57
  be
• 51:57
  asking
• 51:58
  or
• 51:58
  telling
• 51:58
  her
• 51:59
  doctor
• 51:59
  at
• 51:59
  that
• 51:59
  time?
• 52:01
  It's
• 52:01
  really
• 52:02
  important
• 52:02
  to
• 52:04
  look
• 52:04
  at
• 52:05
  your
• 52:05
  insulin.
• 52:08
  Insulin
• 52:09
  is
• 52:09
  a
• 52:09
  hormone.
• 52:11
  So
• 52:11
  I
• 52:12
  think
• 52:12
  a
• 52:12
  lot
• 52:12
  of
• 52:12
  women
• 52:12
  just
• 52:13
  think
• 52:13
  of
• 52:13
  it
• 52:13
  as
• 52:14
  sugar
• 52:14
  or
• 52:15
  something.
• 52:16
  When
• 52:16
  they're
• 52:16
  thinking
• 52:16
  of
• 52:17
  their
• 52:17
  hormones,
• 52:17
  they're
• 52:18
  just
• 52:18
  thinking
• 52:19
  of
• 52:19
  estrogen,
• 52:19
  progesterone,
• 52:20
  testosterone.
• 52:21
  But
• 52:22
  insulin's
• 52:22
  a
• 52:22
  really
• 52:23
  important
• 52:24
  hormone
• 52:25
  and
• 52:25
  if
• 52:25
  that's
• 52:26
  not
• 52:27
  in
• 52:27
  check,
• 52:28
  it's
• 52:28
  going
• 52:28
  to
• 52:28
  make
• 52:28
  everything
• 52:29
  very
• 52:29
  difficult
• 52:30
  and
• 52:31
  that
• 52:31
  can
• 52:32
  be
• 52:32
  a
• 52:32
  tough
• 52:32
  one
• 52:32
  to
• 52:33
  get
• 52:33
  in
• 52:33
  check.
• 52:34
  And,
• 52:35
  and
• 52:35
  sometimes
• 52:35
  you
• 52:35
  do
• 52:36
  need
• 52:36
  to
• 52:36
  do
• 52:36
  estrogen
• 52:37
  in
• 52:37
  order
• 52:38
  to
• 52:38
  help
• 52:38
  you.
• 52:38
  But
• 52:39
  if
• 52:39
  your
• 52:40
  insulin
• 52:40
  is
• 52:40
  elevated,
• 52:41
  you've
• 52:41
  got
• 52:41
  to
• 52:41
  really
• 52:42
  lean
• 52:42
  heavy
• 52:42
  into
• 52:43
  the
• 52:43
  protein
• 52:44
  fiber
• 52:45
  building
• 52:45
  your
• 52:46
  muscle.
• 52:47
  Because
• 52:48
  it's
• 52:49
  high.
• 52:49
  Insulin
• 52:50
  is
• 52:50
  just
• 52:50
  going
• 52:50
  to
• 52:50
  make
• 52:51
  hot
• 52:51
  flashes
• 52:52
  a
• 52:52
  mess.
• 52:53
  It's
• 52:54
  really
• 52:54
  hard
• 52:55
  to
• 52:55
  regulate
• 52:55
  your
• 52:55
  vasomotor
• 52:56
  symptoms
• 52:57
  without
• 52:59
  getting
• 52:59
  your
• 52:59
  insulin
• 53:00
  checked
• 53:00
  out.
• 53:00
  And
• 53:00
  so
• 53:01
  a
• 53:01
  lot
• 53:02
  of
• 53:02
  times
• 53:02
  doctors
• 53:03
  will
• 53:03
  just
• 53:03
  look
• 53:03
  at
• 53:04
  fasting
• 53:04
  glucose,
• 53:05
  but
• 53:05
  insulin
• 53:06
  is
• 53:06
  going
• 53:06
  to
• 53:07
  Elevate
• 53:07
  before
• 53:07
  you're
• 53:08
  going
• 53:08
  to
• 53:08
  see
• 53:08
  it
• 53:08
  in
• 53:09
  your
• 53:09
  glucose.
• 53:10
  So
• 53:10
  I
• 53:10
  would
• 53:10
  definitely
• 53:11
  ask
• 53:12
  for
• 53:12
  that
• 53:12
  right
• 53:12
  away.
• 53:13
  And.
• 53:15
  And
• 53:15
  a
• 53:16
  lot
• 53:16
  of
• 53:16
  doctors,
• 53:16
  I
• 53:17
  hear
• 53:17
  all
• 53:17
  the
• 53:18
  time,
• 53:19
  they
• 53:19
  don't
• 53:19
  want
• 53:19
  to
• 53:19
  check
• 53:19
  because
• 53:20
  you're
• 53:20
  in
• 53:20
  perimenopause
• 53:21
  and
• 53:22
  things
• 53:22
  can
• 53:22
  change
• 53:22
  day
• 53:23
  to
• 53:23
  day.
• 53:23
  And
• 53:23
  yes,
• 53:23
  of
• 53:24
  course
• 53:24
  that's
• 53:24
  true.
• 53:24
  You
• 53:25
  could
• 53:25
  take
• 53:25
  your
• 53:25
  hormone
• 53:26
  levels
• 53:26
  at
• 53:27
  six
• 53:27
  in
• 53:27
  the
• 53:27
  morning
• 53:27
  and
• 53:27
  they're
• 53:28
  going
• 53:28
  to
• 53:28
  be
• 53:28
  different
• 53:28
  than
• 53:28
  12
• 53:29
  in
• 53:29
  the
• 53:29
  afternoon,
• 53:29
  and
• 53:29
  they're
• 53:30
  going
• 53:30
  to
• 53:30
  be
• 53:30
  different
• 53:30
  at
• 53:31
  six
• 53:31
  in
• 53:31
  the
• 53:31
  morning
• 53:31
  the
• 53:31
  next
• 53:32
  day.
• 53:32
  And
• 53:33
  by
• 53:33
  the
• 53:33
  way,
• 53:33
  that's
• 53:33
  not
• 53:33
  just
• 53:34
  perimenopause.
• 53:34
  That's
• 53:35
  our
• 53:35
  whole
• 53:35
  life.
• 53:35
  Our
• 53:36
  hormones
• 53:36
  change
• 53:37
  very
• 53:37
  quickly.
• 53:38
  So.
• 53:38
  But
• 53:39
  it's
• 53:39
  about
• 53:39
  patterns.
• 53:40
  So
• 53:41
  get
• 53:42
  your
• 53:42
  blood
• 53:43
  work
• 53:43
  done
• 53:43
  and
• 53:44
  look
• 53:44
  at
• 53:44
  those
• 53:44
  levels,
• 53:45
  and
• 53:46
  most
• 53:46
  importantly,
• 53:47
  look
• 53:47
  at
• 53:47
  the
• 53:47
  patterns
• 53:48
  and
• 53:49
  see
• 53:49
  how
• 53:49
  they're
• 53:50
  shifting.
• 53:51
  Yeah,
• 53:51
  I
• 53:51
  mean,
• 53:51
  there's
• 53:52
  just.
• 53:52
  There's
• 53:52
  so
• 53:52
  much.
• 53:53
  It's
• 53:53
  like
• 53:54
  constantly
• 53:55
  checking
• 53:55
  things
• 53:55
  and
• 53:56
  then
• 53:56
  also
• 53:56
  waking
• 53:56
  up
• 53:57
  with
• 53:57
  like,
• 53:57
  the
• 53:57
  10
• 53:57
  extra
• 53:58
  pounds.
• 53:58
  I'm
• 53:59
  like,
• 53:59
  oh,
• 53:59
  my
• 53:59
  God,
• 54:00
  like,
• 54:00
  what
• 54:00
  else
• 54:00
  can
• 54:01
  we
• 54:01
  do
• 54:01
  to
• 54:01
  get
• 54:01
  rid
• 54:01
  of
• 54:01
  those
• 54:02
  ten
• 54:02
  pounds?
• 54:03
  I
• 54:03
  can
• 54:03
  tell
• 54:04
  you
• 54:04
  because
• 54:04
  that
• 54:04
  in
• 54:05
  that
• 54:05
  moment,
• 54:05
  and
• 54:05
  it
• 54:06
  lasted
• 54:06
  a
• 54:06
  while
• 54:06
  for
• 54:07
  me,
• 54:07
  because
• 54:07
  it
• 54:07
  takes
• 54:07
  a
• 54:08
  while
• 54:08
  to
• 54:08
  sort
• 54:08
  of
• 54:08
  figure
• 54:09
  it
• 54:09
  out,
• 54:10
  have
• 54:10
  the
• 54:10
  conversation,
• 54:12
  get
• 54:12
  the
• 54:12
  prescription,
• 54:13
  get
• 54:13
  it
• 54:13
  filled,
• 54:13
  get
• 54:13
  it
• 54:14
  shipped.
• 54:14
  It's
• 54:14
  a
• 54:15
  process.
• 54:15
  So
• 54:16
  by
• 54:16
  the
• 54:16
  time
• 54:17
  I
• 54:17
  got
• 54:18
  everything
• 54:18
  I
• 54:18
  needed,
• 54:18
  you
• 54:19
  know,
• 54:19
  it
• 54:19
  had
• 54:19
  been
• 54:19
  a
• 54:19
  couple
• 54:20
  months
• 54:20
  of
• 54:20
  living
• 54:20
  like
• 54:20
  that.
• 54:20
  And
• 54:21
  I
• 54:21
  thought,
• 54:21
  wow,
• 54:21
  I
• 54:21
  can
• 54:22
  really
• 54:22
  see
• 54:22
  why
• 54:24
  the,
• 54:24
  you
• 54:24
  know,
• 54:25
  Ozempic
• 54:25
  and
• 54:25
  Mounjaro,
• 54:26
  like,
• 54:26
  that's
• 54:27
  tempting.
• 54:29
  I
• 54:29
  get
• 54:29
  it.
• 54:30
  And
• 54:31
  for
• 54:31
  some
• 54:31
  people,
• 54:32
  if
• 54:32
  they
• 54:32
  want
• 54:32
  to
• 54:33
  microdose
• 54:34
  that
• 54:34
  for
• 54:34
  a
• 54:34
  period
• 54:35
  of
• 54:35
  time
• 54:36
  while
• 54:36
  they
• 54:36
  can
• 54:37
  get
• 54:37
  the
• 54:37
  rest
• 54:37
  of
• 54:37
  it
• 54:38
  together,
• 54:39
  I
• 54:39
  totally
• 54:40
  understand
• 54:40
  it.
• 54:40
  That
• 54:40
  can
• 54:40
  be
• 54:41
  helpful.
• 54:43
  But
• 54:44
  I
• 54:44
  think
• 54:44
  that
• 54:46
  as
• 54:46
  much
• 54:46
  as
• 54:47
  I
• 54:47
  understand
• 54:47
  why
• 54:48
  we
• 54:48
  want
• 54:48
  it
• 54:48
  to
• 54:48
  change
• 54:49
  overnight,
• 54:50
  it's
• 54:51
  just
• 54:51
  a
• 54:52
  process
• 54:52
  that
• 54:52
  we
• 54:52
  have
• 54:52
  to
• 54:53
  be
• 54:53
  patient
• 54:53
  with,
• 54:53
  and
• 54:54
  we
• 54:54
  have
• 54:54
  to
• 54:55
  really
• 54:56
  trust
• 54:57
  that
• 54:58
  when
• 54:58
  you're
• 54:58
  eating
• 54:59
  three
• 54:59
  meals
• 55:00
  a
• 55:00
  day
• 55:00
  with
• 55:01
  enough
• 55:01
  protein
• 55:02
  and
• 55:02
  fiber,
• 55:03
  and
• 55:03
  if
• 55:03
  you're
• 55:04
  lifting
• 55:04
  weights,
• 55:05
  just
• 55:05
  trust
• 55:05
  the
• 55:06
  process.
• 55:07
  You
• 55:07
  know
• 55:07
  your
• 55:07
  body
• 55:08
  is
• 55:08
  going
• 55:09
  to
• 55:10
  respond
• 55:11
  with
• 55:11
  proper
• 55:12
  hormone
• 55:12
  amounts
• 55:13
  at
• 55:13
  some
• 55:13
  point,
• 55:16
  because
• 55:16
  if
• 55:16
  you
• 55:16
  just
• 55:17
  keep
• 55:17
  lowering
• 55:17
  your
• 55:18
  calories,
• 55:18
  you're
• 55:19
  just
• 55:19
  going
• 55:19
  to
• 55:19
  lower
• 55:19
  your
• 55:20
  metabolic
• 55:20
  rate
• 55:21
  and
• 55:21
  your
• 55:21
  body
• 55:21
  is
• 55:22
  just
• 55:22
  going
• 55:22
  to
• 55:22
  be
• 55:22
  able
• 55:22
  to
• 55:22
  handle
• 55:23
  less
• 55:23
  and
• 55:24
  less
• 55:24
  calories.
• 55:25
  And
• 55:25
  before
• 55:25
  you
• 55:25
  know
• 55:25
  it,
• 55:25
  you're
• 55:26
  eating
• 55:27
  nothing
• 55:27
  and
• 55:28
  just
• 55:28
  still
• 55:28
  gaining
• 55:29
  weight.
• 55:30
  So
• 55:30
  avoid
• 55:31
  that
• 55:31
  pattern
• 55:32
  for
• 55:34
  as
• 55:34
  much
• 55:34
  as
• 55:35
  possible,
• 55:35
  because
• 55:36
  then
• 55:36
  you
• 55:36
  really
• 55:36
  get
• 55:36
  yourself
• 55:37
  stuck
• 55:37
  in
• 55:37
  a
• 55:37
  hole
• 55:38
  that's
• 55:38
  not
• 55:38
  enjoyable.
• 55:39
  No
• 55:39
  one
• 55:39
  wants
• 55:40
  to
• 55:40
  live
• 55:40
  their
• 55:40
  life
• 55:40
  that
• 55:40
  way.
• 55:40
  It's
• 55:41
  miserable.
• 55:42
  Miserable
• 55:42
  to
• 55:42
  live
• 55:43
  in
• 55:43
  calorie
• 55:43
  Restriction
• 55:44
  all
• 55:44
  the
• 55:44
  time.
• 55:46
  Yeah.
• 55:46
  And
• 55:46
  the
• 55:46
  thing
• 55:47
  is,
• 55:47
  so
• 55:48
  many
• 55:48
  people
• 55:48
  are
• 55:48
  doing
• 55:48
  the
• 55:49
  microdose
• 55:49
  of
• 55:50
  the
• 55:50
  GLP1s.
• 55:52
  What
• 55:52
  is
• 55:52
  your
• 55:52
  take
• 55:52
  on
• 55:53
  that?
• 55:53
  Do
• 55:53
  you
• 55:53
  think
• 55:53
  it's
• 55:53
  okay
• 55:53
  for
• 55:54
  a
• 55:54
  small
• 55:54
  amount
• 55:55
  of
• 55:55
  time
• 55:55
  or
• 55:57
  do
• 55:57
  you
• 55:57
  see
• 55:57
  it,
• 55:58
  like,
• 55:58
  being
• 55:58
  a
• 55:58
  problem?
• 56:00
  I
• 56:00
  think
• 56:01
  it
• 56:01
  very
• 56:01
  much
• 56:02
  depends
• 56:02
  on
• 56:02
  the
• 56:02
  personality
• 56:03
  type.
• 56:04
  So
• 56:04
  a
• 56:04
  lot
• 56:04
  of
• 56:05
  women
• 56:05
  are
• 56:05
  using
• 56:05
  tirzepatide,
• 56:06
  which
• 56:06
  tends
• 56:07
  to
• 56:07
  have
• 56:08
  less
• 56:08
  side
• 56:09
  effects,
• 56:09
  and
• 56:09
  semaglutide,
• 56:10
  and
• 56:11
  they
• 56:11
  microdose
• 56:12
  it
• 56:12
  enough
• 56:12
  just
• 56:13
  to
• 56:13
  sort
• 56:13
  of
• 56:13
  take
• 56:13
  the
• 56:14
  edge
• 56:14
  off,
• 56:15
  take
• 56:15
  the
• 56:15
  hunger
• 56:16
  noises
• 56:16
  away.
• 56:18
  But
• 56:18
  even
• 56:19
  for
• 56:19
  women
• 56:19
  that
• 56:19
  don't
• 56:20
  have
• 56:20
  a
• 56:20
  lot
• 56:20
  of
• 56:20
  noise
• 56:21
  around
• 56:21
  hunger,
• 56:21
  it
• 56:22
  just
• 56:22
  does
• 56:22
  seem
• 56:23
  to
• 56:24
  reset
• 56:25
  their
• 56:25
  body.
• 56:25
  It
• 56:26
  obviously
• 56:26
  helps
• 56:26
  with
• 56:27
  insulin
• 56:27
  levels.
• 56:28
  So
• 56:28
  it
• 56:29
  can
• 56:29
  also
• 56:29
  calm
• 56:30
  them
• 56:30
  down
• 56:30
  sort
• 56:31
  of
• 56:31
  mentally
• 56:31
  because
• 56:31
  it
• 56:32
  will
• 56:32
  help
• 56:32
  with
• 56:33
  cortisol
• 56:34
  and
• 56:34
  everything
• 56:34
  else.
• 56:35
  So
• 56:35
  it
• 56:35
  can
• 56:36
  be
• 56:36
  nice
• 56:36
  for
• 56:36
  someone
• 56:37
  who's
• 56:37
  spiraling
• 56:38
  and
• 56:38
  they're
• 56:38
  really
• 56:38
  stuck
• 56:39
  and.
• 56:40
  But
• 56:40
  I
• 56:40
  would
• 56:40
  say
• 56:41
  give
• 56:41
  yourself
• 56:42
  a
• 56:43
  time
• 56:43
  limit.
• 56:44
  Say,
• 56:44
  I'm
• 56:44
  going
• 56:44
  to
• 56:44
  do
• 56:44
  this
• 56:45
  for
• 56:45
  eight
• 56:46
  months
• 56:46
  and
• 56:47
  I'm
• 56:47
  going
• 56:47
  to.
• 56:48
  And
• 56:48
  write
• 56:48
  down,
• 56:49
  like,
• 56:49
  eat
• 56:49
  protein,
• 56:50
  like
• 56:50
  it's
• 56:50
  your
• 56:50
  job.
• 56:50
  I'm
• 56:51
  going
• 56:51
  to
• 56:51
  eat
• 56:51
  this
• 56:51
  much
• 56:51
  protein.
• 56:52
  I'm
• 56:53
  going
• 56:53
  to
• 56:53
  do
• 56:53
  it
• 56:53
  this
• 56:53
  time.
• 56:54
  I'm
• 56:54
  going
• 56:54
  to
• 56:54
  go
• 56:54
  to
• 56:54
  the
• 56:54
  gym.
• 56:55
  On
• 56:55
  these
• 56:55
  days,
• 56:56
  you
• 56:56
  have
• 56:56
  to
• 56:56
  be
• 56:57
  really
• 56:57
  diligent
• 56:57
  to
• 56:58
  protect
• 56:58
  your
• 56:58
  bone
• 56:58
  health
• 56:59
  because
• 56:59
  you
• 57:00
  can
• 57:00
  lose
• 57:00
  a
• 57:00
  lot
• 57:01
  quickly.
• 57:01
  I've
• 57:01
  seen
• 57:02
  women
• 57:02
  who
• 57:02
  are
• 57:03
  on
• 57:03
  it
• 57:03
  for
• 57:03
  a
• 57:03
  short
• 57:03
  period
• 57:03
  of
• 57:04
  time
• 57:04
  who
• 57:04
  stuff
• 57:04
  their
• 57:04
  toe
• 57:05
  and
• 57:05
  break
• 57:05
  it,
• 57:05
  who
• 57:05
  fall
• 57:06
  and
• 57:06
  break
• 57:06
  the
• 57:06
  wrist.
• 57:07
  Your
• 57:07
  bones
• 57:08
  can
• 57:08
  lose
• 57:08
  a
• 57:09
  lot
• 57:09
  of
• 57:09
  density
• 57:10
  very
• 57:11
  quickly,
• 57:11
  especially
• 57:12
  when
• 57:13
  we're,
• 57:13
  you
• 57:13
  know,
• 57:13
  already
• 57:14
  have
• 57:14
  hormonal
• 57:15
  depletion.
• 57:16
  So.
• 57:18
  But
• 57:18
  what
• 57:18
  I
• 57:18
  see
• 57:19
  happen
• 57:19
  with
• 57:19
  a
• 57:19
  lot
• 57:19
  of
• 57:19
  women
• 57:19
  is
• 57:20
  they
• 57:20
  get
• 57:20
  this
• 57:20
  body
• 57:21
  dysmorphia
• 57:22
  that
• 57:22
  when
• 57:22
  they
• 57:23
  start
• 57:23
  losing
• 57:23
  the
• 57:23
  weight
• 57:24
  and
• 57:24
  they
• 57:24
  get
• 57:24
  really
• 57:24
  addicted
• 57:25
  to
• 57:25
  it
• 57:26
  and
• 57:26
  they
• 57:26
  start
• 57:26
  looking
• 57:27
  a
• 57:27
  lot
• 57:27
  older,
• 57:28
  you
• 57:28
  know,
• 57:28
  the
• 57:29
  skin
• 57:29
  size,
• 57:29
  they're
• 57:30
  losing
• 57:30
  muscle
• 57:31
  tone,
• 57:32
  but
• 57:32
  all
• 57:32
  they
• 57:32
  know
• 57:33
  is
• 57:33
  that
• 57:33
  they're
• 57:33
  fitting
• 57:33
  into
• 57:34
  a
• 57:34
  pair
• 57:34
  of
• 57:34
  jeans
• 57:34
  that
• 57:35
  they
• 57:35
  haven't
• 57:35
  been
• 57:35
  able
• 57:35
  to
• 57:36
  fit
• 57:36
  into
• 57:36
  since
• 57:37
  10
• 57:37
  years
• 57:37
  ago.
• 57:38
  And
• 57:38
  so
• 57:38
  that's
• 57:39
  their
• 57:39
  goalpost.
• 57:40
  That's
• 57:40
  all
• 57:40
  they
• 57:41
  care
• 57:41
  about.
• 57:41
  And
• 57:41
  they're
• 57:41
  not
• 57:41
  objectively
• 57:42
  seeing
• 57:43
  how
• 57:43
  they
• 57:44
  look
• 57:44
  in
• 57:44
  the
• 57:44
  mirror.
• 57:45
  They
• 57:45
  don't
• 57:45
  realize
• 57:46
  that
• 57:46
  that
• 57:46
  little
• 57:46
  butt
• 57:46
  is
• 57:47
  actually
• 57:47
  youthful
• 57:48
  and
• 57:48
  a
• 57:49
  little
• 57:49
  bit
• 57:49
  fuller
• 57:49
  cheeks
• 57:50
  is
• 57:50
  youthful.
• 57:52
  They
• 57:52
  don't
• 57:52
  care.
• 57:52
  They're
• 57:52
  just
• 57:53
  looking
• 57:53
  at
• 57:53
  the
• 57:53
  scale
• 57:54
  and
• 57:54
  they're
• 57:54
  looking
• 57:55
  at,
• 57:55
  you
• 57:55
  know,
• 57:55
  how
• 57:56
  they
• 57:56
  fit
• 57:56
  in
• 57:56
  those
• 57:56
  jeans.
• 57:57
  So
• 57:57
  you
• 57:58
  can
• 57:58
  lose
• 57:58
  sight
• 57:58
  of
• 57:58
  it.
• 57:58
  So
• 57:59
  I
• 57:59
  would
• 57:59
  say,
• 57:59
  buddy
• 58:00
  up.
• 58:00
  You
• 58:00
  know,
• 58:00
  if
• 58:00
  you're
• 58:00
  going
• 58:00
  to
• 58:01
  do
• 58:01
  that,
• 58:01
  say
• 58:02
  to
• 58:02
  your
• 58:02
  best
• 58:02
  friend,
• 58:03
  you
• 58:03
  have
• 58:03
  to
• 58:03
  be
• 58:03
  honest
• 58:04
  with
• 58:04
  me.
• 58:05
  Let
• 58:05
  me
• 58:05
  know
• 58:05
  when
• 58:06
  I've
• 58:06
  taken
• 58:06
  this
• 58:06
  too
• 58:07
  far.
• 58:07
  I'm
• 58:07
  spiraling.
• 58:08
  You
• 58:08
  know,
• 58:08
  let's
• 58:08
  make
• 58:09
  sure
• 58:09
  that
• 58:09
  we're
• 58:09
  or
• 58:10
  you
• 58:10
  know,
• 58:10
  eating
• 58:11
  enough.
• 58:11
  I
• 58:11
  think
• 58:11
  it's
• 58:11
  nice
• 58:12
  to
• 58:12
  have
• 58:12
  a
• 58:12
  buddy
• 58:13
  in
• 58:13
  it
• 58:13
  with
• 58:13
  you
• 58:13
  who's
• 58:14
  gonna
• 58:14
  keep
• 58:15
  it
• 58:15
  real.
• 58:15
  Yeah.
• 58:16
  Somebody
• 58:16
  who
• 58:16
  will
• 58:16
  tell
• 58:17
  you
• 58:17
  the
• 58:17
  truth
• 58:18
  like
• 58:18
  no
• 58:19
  matter
• 58:19
  what.
• 58:19
  Yeah.
• 58:20
  If
• 58:20
  just
• 58:20
  I
• 58:20
  would
• 58:20
  say
• 58:21
  know
• 58:21
  your
• 58:21
  personality.
• 58:22
  If
• 58:22
  you
• 58:22
  think
• 58:22
  that
• 58:22
  you're
• 58:23
  inclined
• 58:23
  to
• 58:24
  take
• 58:24
  it
• 58:24
  too
• 58:24
  far,
• 58:26
  you
• 58:26
  may
• 58:26
  not
• 58:26
  want
• 58:26
  to
• 58:27
  start
• 58:27
  it
• 58:27
  to
• 58:27
  begin
• 58:28
  with.
• 58:28
  That's
• 58:29
  a
• 58:29
  good
• 58:29
  point.
• 58:30
  What
• 58:30
  is
• 58:30
  the
• 58:31
  breakdown
• 58:31
  for
• 58:31
  how
• 58:31
  much,
• 58:32
  you
• 58:32
  know,
• 58:32
  protein,
• 58:33
  fiber,
• 58:34
  fats,
• 58:34
  carbohydrates
• 58:35
  that
• 58:35
  we
• 58:35
  should
• 58:35
  be
• 58:36
  eating?
• 58:36
  Is
• 58:36
  there
• 58:36
  like
• 58:36
  a
• 58:37
  certain
• 58:37
  amount
• 58:38
  or
• 58:38
  an
• 58:38
  equation
• 58:39
  to
• 58:39
  figure
• 58:39
  out
• 58:40
  what
• 58:40
  the
• 58:40
  amount
• 58:41
  perfect
• 58:41
  amount
• 58:41
  is
• 58:41
  for
• 58:41
  each
• 58:42
  person.
• 58:43
  Proteins,
• 58:43
  generally
• 58:44
  a
• 58:45
  gram
• 58:45
  per
• 58:46
  pound
• 58:46
  of
• 58:47
  desired
• 58:47
  body
• 58:48
  weight.
• 58:48
  So
• 58:49
  if
• 58:50
  you,
• 58:50
  regardless
• 58:50
  of
• 58:50
  how
• 58:51
  much
• 58:51
  you
• 58:51
  weigh,
• 58:51
  let's
• 58:51
  say
• 58:52
  you
• 58:52
  just
• 58:52
  want
• 58:52
  to
• 58:52
  weigh
• 58:52
  130,
• 58:53
  then
• 58:54
  eat
• 58:54
  130
• 58:55
  grams.
• 58:56
  And
• 58:57
  snacking
• 58:58
  is
• 58:58
  really
• 58:58
  our
• 58:58
  enemy
• 58:59
  at
• 58:59
  this
• 58:59
  time
• 58:59
  because
• 59:00
  we
• 59:00
  already
• 59:00
  are
• 59:01
  having
• 59:01
  a
• 59:01
  hard
• 59:01
  time
• 59:02
  balancing
• 59:03
  cortisol,
• 59:03
  insulin,
• 59:04
  glucose.
• 59:05
  So
• 59:05
  you
• 59:05
  want
• 59:05
  to
• 59:05
  just
• 59:05
  do
• 59:06
  good
• 59:06
  old
• 59:06
  fashioned
• 59:07
  three
• 59:07
  meals,
• 59:08
  no
• 59:08
  snacks,
• 59:09
  you
• 59:09
  know,
• 59:09
  so
• 59:10
  30
• 59:10
  to
• 59:10
  40
• 59:11
  grams
• 59:11
  per
• 59:11
  meal
• 59:12
  and
• 59:13
  ideally
• 59:14
  fiber
• 59:14
  is
• 59:15
  about
• 59:15
  40
• 59:16
  grams,
• 59:17
  so
• 59:17
  maybe
• 59:17
  10
• 59:18
  to
• 59:18
  15
• 59:18
  per
• 59:18
  meal.
• 59:19
  For
• 59:19
  some
• 59:19
  women
• 59:20
  who
• 59:20
  aren't
• 59:20
  used
• 59:20
  to
• 59:20
  eating
• 59:21
  fiber,
• 59:22
  take
• 59:22
  it
• 59:22
  slow,
• 59:22
  you
• 59:23
  know,
• 59:23
  maybe
• 59:23
  add
• 59:24
  5
• 59:25
  grams
• 59:25
  of
• 59:25
  fiber
• 59:26
  per
• 59:26
  week.
• 59:27
  Take
• 59:27
  some
• 59:27
  digestive
• 59:28
  enzymes
• 59:29
  when
• 59:29
  you
• 59:29
  do
• 59:29
  it,
• 59:30
  if
• 59:30
  you
• 59:30
  haven't
• 59:31
  eaten
• 59:31
  fiber,
• 59:31
  don't
• 59:31
  try
• 59:31
  to
• 59:31
  eat
• 59:32
  45
• 59:32
  grams
• 59:32
  of
• 59:33
  in
• 59:33
  a
• 59:33
  day
• 59:33
  where
• 59:34
  you're,
• 59:35
  you'll
• 59:35
  never
• 59:35
  leave
• 59:36
  the
• 59:36
  bathroom.
• 59:39
  And
• 59:39
  the
• 59:39
  same
• 59:39
  thing
• 59:40
  for
• 59:40
  protein,
• 59:41
  you
• 59:41
  know,
• 59:41
  that
• 59:41
  can
• 59:41
  really
• 59:42
  mess
• 59:42
  up
• 59:42
  your
• 59:42
  gut
• 59:42
  if
• 59:42
  you're
• 59:43
  not
• 59:43
  used
• 59:43
  to
• 59:43
  eating
• 59:43
  it.
• 59:44
  So
• 59:45
  take
• 59:45
  baby
• 59:45
  steps,
• 59:46
  give
• 59:46
  yourself
• 59:46
  a
• 59:47
  few
• 59:47
  weeks,
• 59:47
  a
• 59:47
  month,
• 59:48
  six
• 59:48
  weeks
• 59:48
  to
• 59:48
  sort
• 59:49
  of
• 59:49
  get,
• 59:49
  get
• 59:50
  up
• 59:50
  to
• 59:50
  that
• 59:50
  point
• 59:51
  and
• 59:51
  definitely,
• 59:52
  you
• 59:52
  know,
• 59:52
  as
• 59:52
  we're
• 59:53
  losing,
• 59:53
  as
• 59:53
  I
• 59:53
  said
• 59:54
  before,
• 59:54
  our
• 59:54
  HCl
• 59:54
  and
• 59:55
  digestive
• 59:55
  enzymes,
• 59:56
  if
• 59:56
  you're
• 59:56
  not
• 59:56
  used
• 59:57
  to
• 59:57
  eating
• 59:57
  that
• 59:57
  way,
• 59:58
  it's
• 59:58
  a
• 59:58
  really
• 59:58
  good
• 59:58
  idea
• 59:59
  to
• 1:00:00
  supplement
• 1:00:00
  with
• 1:00:00
  those.
• 1:00:01
  And
• 1:00:01
  then
• 1:00:02
  as
• 1:00:02
  far
• 1:00:02
  as
• 1:00:02
  fat
• 1:00:03
  and
• 1:00:03
  carbs
• 1:00:03
  go,
• 1:00:04
  it's
• 1:00:04
  really
• 1:00:05
  depends
• 1:00:05
  on
• 1:00:05
  the
• 1:00:06
  person.
• 1:00:07
  Again,
• 1:00:07
  a
• 1:00:07
  lot
• 1:00:08
  of
• 1:00:08
  that
• 1:00:08
  has
• 1:00:08
  to
• 1:00:08
  do
• 1:00:08
  with
• 1:00:09
  genetics.
• 1:00:10
  I
• 1:00:11
  love
• 1:00:12
  fat,
• 1:00:12
  but
• 1:00:12
  again
• 1:00:13
  I
• 1:00:13
  can't
• 1:00:14
  eat
• 1:00:14
  a
• 1:00:14
  lot
• 1:00:14
  of
• 1:00:14
  it
• 1:00:15
  because
• 1:00:15
  it
• 1:00:15
  oxidizes.
• 1:00:16
  So
• 1:00:17
  for
• 1:00:18
  me,
• 1:00:18
  you
• 1:00:18
  know,
• 1:00:18
  keto
• 1:00:19
  is
• 1:00:19
  not
• 1:00:20
  something
• 1:00:20
  I
• 1:00:20
  could
• 1:00:20
  do.
• 1:00:21
  For
• 1:00:21
  someone
• 1:00:21
  else
• 1:00:22
  who
• 1:00:23
  transport
• 1:00:24
  transports
• 1:00:24
  cholesterol,
• 1:00:25
  amazingly
• 1:00:25
  they,
• 1:00:26
  they
• 1:00:26
  could
• 1:00:26
  eat
• 1:00:27
  more
• 1:00:27
  fat
• 1:00:27
  than
• 1:00:27
  me.
• 1:00:29
  Carbohydrates,
• 1:00:30
  I
• 1:00:30
  think,
• 1:00:30
  you
• 1:00:31
  know,
• 1:00:31
  you
• 1:00:31
  kind
• 1:00:31
  of
• 1:00:31
  have
• 1:00:31
  to
• 1:00:31
  earn
• 1:00:32
  your
• 1:00:32
  carbs
• 1:00:33
  when
• 1:00:33
  as
• 1:00:33
  we
• 1:00:34
  get
• 1:00:34
  older.
• 1:00:34
  So
• 1:00:35
  if
• 1:00:35
  it's
• 1:00:35
  a
• 1:00:36
  day
• 1:00:36
  where
• 1:00:36
  I'm
• 1:00:37
  really
• 1:00:37
  lifting
• 1:00:39
  either
• 1:00:39
  Right
• 1:00:40
  before
• 1:00:40
  or
• 1:00:40
  right
• 1:00:40
  after,
• 1:00:41
  I
• 1:00:41
  can
• 1:00:41
  eat
• 1:00:41
  however
• 1:00:42
  many
• 1:00:42
  carbs
• 1:00:42
  I
• 1:00:42
  want.
• 1:00:42
  Doesn't
• 1:00:43
  matter
• 1:00:43
  if.
• 1:00:43
  If
• 1:00:44
  I
• 1:00:44
  have
• 1:00:44
  a
• 1:00:44
  day
• 1:00:44
  where
• 1:00:44
  I
• 1:00:44
  have
• 1:00:45
  more
• 1:00:45
  office
• 1:00:45
  work
• 1:00:45
  to
• 1:00:45
  do
• 1:00:45
  and
• 1:00:46
  I'm
• 1:00:46
  a
• 1:00:46
  little
• 1:00:46
  bit
• 1:00:46
  more
• 1:00:47
  sedentary,
• 1:00:48
  then
• 1:00:48
  I'm
• 1:00:49
  not
• 1:00:49
  going
• 1:00:49
  to
• 1:00:49
  be
• 1:00:49
  eating
• 1:00:49
  as
• 1:00:49
  much.
• 1:00:50
  And
• 1:00:51
  again,
• 1:00:51
  it's.
• 1:00:51
  It's
• 1:00:52
  individual.
• 1:00:53
  But
• 1:00:53
  I
• 1:00:53
  feel
• 1:00:53
  like
• 1:00:54
  for
• 1:00:54
  most
• 1:00:55
  women
• 1:00:55
  that
• 1:00:55
  I
• 1:00:55
  work
• 1:00:56
  with
• 1:00:56
  at
• 1:00:56
  this
• 1:00:57
  stage
• 1:00:57
  in
• 1:00:57
  life,
• 1:00:58
  they
• 1:00:58
  do
• 1:00:58
  sort
• 1:00:58
  of
• 1:00:59
  have
• 1:00:59
  to
• 1:00:59
  judge
• 1:01:00
  their
• 1:01:00
  carbs
• 1:01:00
  on
• 1:01:00
  their
• 1:01:01
  activity
• 1:01:01
  level.
• 1:01:02
  That's
• 1:01:03
  a
• 1:01:03
  good
• 1:01:03
  point.
• 1:01:04
  So
• 1:01:04
  if
• 1:01:04
  a
• 1:01:04
  woman
• 1:01:04
  is
• 1:01:05
  feeling
• 1:01:05
  really
• 1:01:06
  out
• 1:01:06
  of
• 1:01:06
  balance,
• 1:01:07
  you
• 1:01:07
  know,
• 1:01:07
  anxious
• 1:01:08
  and
• 1:01:08
  tired
• 1:01:08
  right
• 1:01:08
  now,
• 1:01:09
  but,
• 1:01:09
  you
• 1:01:09
  know,
• 1:01:10
  the
• 1:01:10
  doctor
• 1:01:10
  keeps
• 1:01:10
  saying,
• 1:01:10
  oh,
• 1:01:10
  your
• 1:01:11
  labs
• 1:01:11
  are
• 1:01:11
  fine,
• 1:01:12
  you
• 1:01:12
  know,
• 1:01:12
  you're
• 1:01:12
  in
• 1:01:12
  great
• 1:01:13
  health,
• 1:01:13
  and,
• 1:01:14
  you
• 1:01:14
  know,
• 1:01:14
  not
• 1:01:14
  really.
• 1:01:15
  She's
• 1:01:15
  not
• 1:01:15
  really
• 1:01:15
  getting
• 1:01:15
  answers.
• 1:01:17
  What
• 1:01:17
  is
• 1:01:17
  the
• 1:01:18
  first
• 1:01:18
  step
• 1:01:18
  she
• 1:01:19
  can
• 1:01:19
  take
• 1:01:19
  to
• 1:01:19
  advocate
• 1:01:20
  for
• 1:01:20
  herself
• 1:01:21
  and
• 1:01:21
  find
• 1:01:22
  answers
• 1:01:22
  if
• 1:01:22
  she's
• 1:01:23
  not
• 1:01:23
  getting
• 1:01:23
  it
• 1:01:23
  from
• 1:01:23
  her
• 1:01:24
  doctor?
• 1:01:24
  Well,
• 1:01:25
  for
• 1:01:25
  one
• 1:01:25
  thing,
• 1:01:26
  we're
• 1:01:26
  not
• 1:01:26
  married
• 1:01:27
  to
• 1:01:27
  our
• 1:01:27
  doctors.
• 1:01:27
  And
• 1:01:28
  even
• 1:01:28
  if
• 1:01:28
  we
• 1:01:28
  were,
• 1:01:29
  you
• 1:01:29
  can
• 1:01:30
  any
• 1:01:31
  relationship
• 1:01:31
  you
• 1:01:32
  don't
• 1:01:32
  want,
• 1:01:32
  right?
• 1:01:33
  A
• 1:01:34
  doctor,
• 1:01:34
  divorced
• 1:01:37
  or,
• 1:01:38
  you
• 1:01:38
  know,
• 1:01:38
  you
• 1:01:39
  may
• 1:01:39
  love
• 1:01:39
  that
• 1:01:39
  doctor
• 1:01:40
  for
• 1:01:40
  other
• 1:01:40
  reasons,
• 1:01:41
  but
• 1:01:41
  maybe
• 1:01:42
  you
• 1:01:42
  need
• 1:01:42
  to
• 1:01:42
  add
• 1:01:42
  on
• 1:01:43
  to
• 1:01:43
  your
• 1:01:43
  team.
• 1:01:44
  So
• 1:01:44
  maybe
• 1:01:45
  this
• 1:01:45
  is
• 1:01:45
  your
• 1:01:45
  gynecologist
• 1:01:46
  who
• 1:01:47
  delivered
• 1:01:47
  your
• 1:01:47
  kids,
• 1:01:48
  but
• 1:01:48
  they
• 1:01:49
  probably
• 1:01:50
  have
• 1:01:50
  not
• 1:01:50
  been
• 1:01:50
  trained
• 1:01:51
  in
• 1:01:51
  hrt,
• 1:01:52
  so
• 1:01:53
  still
• 1:01:53
  keep
• 1:01:53
  them
• 1:01:54
  for
• 1:01:54
  your
• 1:01:54
  pelvic
• 1:01:55
  exams
• 1:01:55
  and
• 1:01:55
  keep
• 1:01:56
  them.
• 1:01:56
  You
• 1:01:56
  have
• 1:01:57
  that
• 1:01:57
  relationship.
• 1:01:58
  But
• 1:01:58
  you
• 1:01:58
  may
• 1:01:59
  want
• 1:01:59
  to
• 1:01:59
  go
• 1:01:59
  out
• 1:01:59
  and
• 1:01:59
  look
• 1:02:00
  for
• 1:02:00
  someone
• 1:02:01
  who
• 1:02:01
  is
• 1:02:01
  more
• 1:02:01
  educated
• 1:02:02
  in
• 1:02:02
  the
• 1:02:02
  areas
• 1:02:03
  that
• 1:02:03
  you're
• 1:02:03
  looking
• 1:02:04
  for
• 1:02:04
  help
• 1:02:04
  in.
• 1:02:04
  So
• 1:02:05
  you
• 1:02:05
  don't
• 1:02:05
  necessarily
• 1:02:06
  have
• 1:02:06
  to
• 1:02:06
  fire
• 1:02:06
  them.
• 1:02:06
  You
• 1:02:07
  may
• 1:02:07
  just
• 1:02:07
  need
• 1:02:07
  to
• 1:02:07
  hire
• 1:02:08
  more
• 1:02:08
  people,
• 1:02:09
  add
• 1:02:10
  different
• 1:02:10
  people
• 1:02:10
  to
• 1:02:10
  your
• 1:02:10
  team.
• 1:02:11
  It
• 1:02:11
  doesn't
• 1:02:11
  have
• 1:02:11
  to
• 1:02:11
  be
• 1:02:11
  cash
• 1:02:12
  pay.
• 1:02:12
  You
• 1:02:12
  can
• 1:02:12
  add
• 1:02:13
  other
• 1:02:13
  people
• 1:02:13
  who
• 1:02:14
  have
• 1:02:15
  everything
• 1:02:15
  covered
• 1:02:15
  under
• 1:02:16
  insurance.
• 1:02:16
  Just
• 1:02:17
  because
• 1:02:17
  it's
• 1:02:17
  functional
• 1:02:18
  doesn't
• 1:02:19
  mean
• 1:02:19
  it
• 1:02:19
  doesn't
• 1:02:19
  have
• 1:02:20
  to
• 1:02:20
  be
• 1:02:20
  covered
• 1:02:20
  under
• 1:02:20
  insurance.
• 1:02:21
  I
• 1:02:21
  think
• 1:02:21
  a
• 1:02:21
  lot
• 1:02:21
  of
• 1:02:21
  people
• 1:02:22
  do
• 1:02:22
  think
• 1:02:22
  that.
• 1:02:22
  But
• 1:02:22
  you
• 1:02:22
  can
• 1:02:23
  search
• 1:02:23
  up
• 1:02:24
  physicians
• 1:02:25
  who
• 1:02:25
  have
• 1:02:25
  been
• 1:02:25
  functionally
• 1:02:26
  trained,
• 1:02:27
  you
• 1:02:27
  know,
• 1:02:28
  through
• 1:02:28
  the
• 1:02:28
  Institute
• 1:02:28
  of
• 1:02:28
  functional
• 1:02:29
  medicine
• 1:02:30
  or
• 1:02:30
  A4M,
• 1:02:32
  and
• 1:02:32
  you
• 1:02:32
  can
• 1:02:32
  get
• 1:02:33
  a
• 1:02:33
  sense
• 1:02:33
  of,
• 1:02:33
  okay,
• 1:02:34
  you
• 1:02:34
  know,
• 1:02:34
  they
• 1:02:34
  have
• 1:02:34
  a
• 1:02:34
  more
• 1:02:35
  holistic
• 1:02:35
  overall
• 1:02:36
  view.
• 1:02:37
  They've
• 1:02:37
  been
• 1:02:37
  trained
• 1:02:38
  specifically
• 1:02:38
  in
• 1:02:39
  hormone
• 1:02:39
  replacements.
• 1:02:42
  So
• 1:02:42
  I
• 1:02:43
  wouldn't
• 1:02:43
  get
• 1:02:43
  too
• 1:02:43
  caught
• 1:02:44
  up
• 1:02:44
  on
• 1:02:44
  disagreeing
• 1:02:45
  with
• 1:02:45
  your
• 1:02:46
  physician
• 1:02:46
  because
• 1:02:47
  we
• 1:02:48
  have
• 1:02:48
  to
• 1:02:48
  meet
• 1:02:48
  people
• 1:02:48
  where
• 1:02:49
  they're
• 1:02:49
  at.
• 1:02:50
  And
• 1:02:51
  rather
• 1:02:51
  than
• 1:02:51
  getting
• 1:02:52
  frustrated,
• 1:02:53
  I
• 1:02:53
  think
• 1:02:53
  it's
• 1:02:53
  fair
• 1:02:54
  to
• 1:02:54
  either
• 1:02:54
  keep
• 1:02:55
  them
• 1:02:55
  or
• 1:02:55
  fire
• 1:02:55
  them.
• 1:02:55
  But
• 1:02:56
  you
• 1:02:56
  may
• 1:02:57
  need
• 1:02:57
  to
• 1:02:57
  have
• 1:02:57
  someone
• 1:02:57
  else
• 1:02:58
  on
• 1:02:58
  your
• 1:02:58
  team.
• 1:02:59
  Good
• 1:03:00
  point.
• 1:03:00
  But
• 1:03:00
  it's
• 1:03:00
  the
• 1:03:00
  struggle.
• 1:03:01
  The
• 1:03:01
  struggle
• 1:03:01
  can
• 1:03:02
  be
• 1:03:02
  quite
• 1:03:02
  stressful
• 1:03:03
  for
• 1:03:03
  women,
• 1:03:03
  and
• 1:03:03
  it
• 1:03:04
  can
• 1:03:04
  also
• 1:03:04
  waste
• 1:03:04
  a
• 1:03:04
  lot
• 1:03:05
  of
• 1:03:05
  precious
• 1:03:05
  time.
• 1:03:06
  True,
• 1:03:07
  true.
• 1:03:07
  That's
• 1:03:08
  the
• 1:03:08
  thing
• 1:03:08
  when
• 1:03:08
  you
• 1:03:08
  feel
• 1:03:08
  like
• 1:03:08
  you're
• 1:03:09
  not
• 1:03:09
  getting
• 1:03:09
  an
• 1:03:09
  answer
• 1:03:10
  here
• 1:03:10
  and
• 1:03:10
  you're
• 1:03:10
  still
• 1:03:10
  looking
• 1:03:11
  and
• 1:03:11
  it,
• 1:03:11
  it
• 1:03:12
  just
• 1:03:12
  gets
• 1:03:12
  so
• 1:03:12
  confusing,
• 1:03:13
  you
• 1:03:13
  know,
• 1:03:13
  and
• 1:03:13
  you
• 1:03:14
  don't
• 1:03:14
  know
• 1:03:14
  really
• 1:03:14
  know
• 1:03:14
  sometimes
• 1:03:15
  where
• 1:03:15
  to
• 1:03:15
  look.
• 1:03:16
  So
• 1:03:16
  that's
• 1:03:17
  a
• 1:03:17
  good
• 1:03:17
  point
• 1:03:17
  to
• 1:03:17
  kind
• 1:03:18
  of,
• 1:03:18
  you
• 1:03:18
  know,
• 1:03:18
  shake
• 1:03:18
  down
• 1:03:19
  the
• 1:03:19
  tree
• 1:03:19
  a
• 1:03:19
  little
• 1:03:19
  bit
• 1:03:19
  and
• 1:03:20
  investigate,
• 1:03:21
  you
• 1:03:21
  know,
• 1:03:21
  maybe
• 1:03:22
  reach
• 1:03:22
  out
• 1:03:22
  to
• 1:03:22
  some
• 1:03:22
  other
• 1:03:22
  people.
• 1:03:23
  Yes.
• 1:03:24
  Ask
• 1:03:24
  your
• 1:03:24
  friends
• 1:03:25
  who
• 1:03:25
  are
• 1:03:25
  taking
• 1:03:26
  hrt,
• 1:03:26
  who,
• 1:03:27
  you
• 1:03:27
  know,
• 1:03:27
  if
• 1:03:27
  they're
• 1:03:28
  happy
• 1:03:28
  and
• 1:03:29
  a
• 1:03:29
  lot
• 1:03:29
  of
• 1:03:29
  women
• 1:03:29
  are
• 1:03:29
  doing
• 1:03:30
  it
• 1:03:30
  now.
• 1:03:30
  I
• 1:03:30
  mean,
• 1:03:30
  the
• 1:03:30
  numbers
• 1:03:31
  used
• 1:03:31
  to
• 1:03:31
  be
• 1:03:31
  much
• 1:03:31
  smaller,
• 1:03:32
  they're
• 1:03:32
  still
• 1:03:32
  pretty
• 1:03:32
  small,
• 1:03:33
  but
• 1:03:33
  it's
• 1:03:33
  becoming
• 1:03:33
  more
• 1:03:34
  and
• 1:03:34
  more
• 1:03:34
  common.
• 1:03:34
  So
• 1:03:34
  if
• 1:03:34
  you
• 1:03:35
  have
• 1:03:35
  friends
• 1:03:35
  who
• 1:03:36
  are
• 1:03:36
  taking
• 1:03:36
  it
• 1:03:36
  and
• 1:03:37
  they're
• 1:03:37
  happy,
• 1:03:37
  that's
• 1:03:37
  a
• 1:03:38
  great
• 1:03:38
  way
• 1:03:38
  to
• 1:03:38
  find
• 1:03:38
  a
• 1:03:38
  practitioner.
• 1:03:40
  Absolutely.
• 1:03:41
  So
• 1:03:41
  rolling
• 1:03:42
  back
• 1:03:42
  the
• 1:03:42
  clock
• 1:03:43
  a
• 1:03:43
  little
• 1:03:43
  bit,
• 1:03:44
  what
• 1:03:44
  advice
• 1:03:45
  would
• 1:03:45
  you
• 1:03:45
  give
• 1:03:45
  your
• 1:03:45
  25
• 1:03:46
  year
• 1:03:46
  old
• 1:03:46
  self?
• 1:03:48
  Oh,
• 1:03:48
  easy.
• 1:03:49
  I
• 1:03:49
  would
• 1:03:49
  say
• 1:03:50
  eat
• 1:03:51
  more,
• 1:03:52
  lift
• 1:03:52
  weights.
• 1:03:54
  Think
• 1:03:55
  I
• 1:03:55
  was
• 1:03:55
  already
• 1:03:56
  off
• 1:03:56
  the
• 1:03:57
  pill
• 1:03:57
  by
• 1:03:57
  then,
• 1:04:00
  but
• 1:04:00
  lift
• 1:04:01
  more
• 1:04:02
  and
• 1:04:03
  I
• 1:04:03
  mean
• 1:04:03
  eat
• 1:04:04
  more
• 1:04:04
  and
• 1:04:04
  lift
• 1:04:05
  weights
• 1:04:05
  for
• 1:04:06
  sure.
• 1:04:06
  I
• 1:04:06
  was
• 1:04:06
  an
• 1:04:06
  undereater
• 1:04:07
  and
• 1:04:07
  I
• 1:04:07
  was
• 1:04:08
  an
• 1:04:08
  over
• 1:04:08
  cardioer.
• 1:04:10
  Gosh,
• 1:04:11
  I
• 1:04:11
  mean,
• 1:04:11
  weren't
• 1:04:11
  we
• 1:04:11
  all?
• 1:04:12
  That
• 1:04:12
  was
• 1:04:12
  like
• 1:04:12
  the
• 1:04:13
  thing,
• 1:04:13
  it
• 1:04:13
  was
• 1:04:13
  like
• 1:04:14
  cardio,
• 1:04:14
  cardio,
• 1:04:15
  cardio,
• 1:04:15
  nonstop.
• 1:04:16
  It
• 1:04:16
  was
• 1:04:17
  every
• 1:04:17
  aerobics
• 1:04:17
  class,
• 1:04:18
  like
• 1:04:18
  you're
• 1:04:18
  saying.
• 1:04:19
  Yeah,
• 1:04:19
  and
• 1:04:19
  my
• 1:04:20
  nervous
• 1:04:20
  system,
• 1:04:21
  you
• 1:04:21
  know,
• 1:04:21
  as
• 1:04:21
  a
• 1:04:22
  result,
• 1:04:22
  if
• 1:04:22
  you're
• 1:04:22
  not
• 1:04:23
  having
• 1:04:23
  enough
• 1:04:23
  nutrients
• 1:04:24
  and
• 1:04:24
  if
• 1:04:24
  you're
• 1:04:25
  doing
• 1:04:25
  so
• 1:04:25
  much
• 1:04:25
  cardio,
• 1:04:26
  My
• 1:04:26
  nervous
• 1:04:27
  system
• 1:04:27
  was
• 1:04:27
  a
• 1:04:27
  mess.
• 1:04:29
  It's
• 1:04:29
  sad
• 1:04:29
  to
• 1:04:30
  look
• 1:04:30
  back
• 1:04:30
  and
• 1:04:30
  think
• 1:04:30
  of
• 1:04:31
  sort
• 1:04:32
  of
• 1:04:32
  how
• 1:04:32
  I
• 1:04:32
  dealt
• 1:04:32
  with
• 1:04:32
  situations
• 1:04:33
  and
• 1:04:34
  things
• 1:04:34
  that
• 1:04:34
  I
• 1:04:34
  just
• 1:04:35
  could
• 1:04:35
  have
• 1:04:35
  completely
• 1:04:36
  ignored
• 1:04:37
  and
• 1:04:37
  not
• 1:04:38
  paid
• 1:04:38
  attention
• 1:04:38
  to.
• 1:04:39
  I
• 1:04:39
  could
• 1:04:39
  have
• 1:04:39
  been
• 1:04:40
  much
• 1:04:40
  happier
• 1:04:43
  if
• 1:04:43
  I
• 1:04:43
  had
• 1:04:43
  fueled
• 1:04:44
  my
• 1:04:45
  body
• 1:04:45
  more.
• 1:04:46
  And
• 1:04:46
  how
• 1:04:46
  are
• 1:04:47
  you
• 1:04:47
  living
• 1:04:47
  iconically
• 1:04:48
  right
• 1:04:48
  now?
• 1:04:50
  I
• 1:04:50
  would
• 1:04:50
  say
• 1:04:51
  at
• 1:04:51
  this
• 1:04:51
  point
• 1:04:51
  things
• 1:04:52
  have
• 1:04:52
  become
• 1:04:53
  very
• 1:04:54
  habitual
• 1:04:54
  for
• 1:04:54
  me.
• 1:04:55
  So
• 1:04:55
  even
• 1:04:55
  though
• 1:04:56
  it
• 1:04:56
  seems
• 1:04:57
  like
• 1:04:57
  a
• 1:04:57
  lot
• 1:04:57
  for
• 1:04:57
  women,
• 1:04:57
  I
• 1:04:58
  just,
• 1:04:58
  I
• 1:04:58
  guess
• 1:04:58
  I
• 1:04:59
  would
• 1:04:59
  like
• 1:04:59
  them
• 1:04:59
  to
• 1:04:59
  know
• 1:05:00
  for
• 1:05:00
  me,
• 1:05:00
  yeah,
• 1:05:01
  okay,
• 1:05:01
  I've
• 1:05:01
  got
• 1:05:01
  a
• 1:05:01
  good
• 1:05:02
  pattern,
• 1:05:02
  but
• 1:05:02
  it
• 1:05:02
  didn't
• 1:05:02
  happen
• 1:05:03
  overnight.
• 1:05:03
  I
• 1:05:03
  just
• 1:05:04
  sort
• 1:05:04
  of
• 1:05:04
  gradually.
• 1:05:05
  Okay.
• 1:05:06
  I
• 1:05:06
  started
• 1:05:07
  eating
• 1:05:07
  breakfast
• 1:05:08
  and
• 1:05:08
  doing
• 1:05:08
  my
• 1:05:08
  coffee
• 1:05:09
  after
• 1:05:09
  I
• 1:05:10
  started.
• 1:05:10
  You
• 1:05:10
  know,
• 1:05:10
  I
• 1:05:11
  would
• 1:05:11
  do
• 1:05:11
  saunas
• 1:05:12
  at
• 1:05:12
  night
• 1:05:12
  to
• 1:05:13
  relax.
• 1:05:13
  I
• 1:05:14
  would
• 1:05:14
  make
• 1:05:14
  sure
• 1:05:14
  I
• 1:05:14
  got
• 1:05:15
  enough
• 1:05:15
  protein
• 1:05:16
  at
• 1:05:16
  lunch
• 1:05:16
  because
• 1:05:17
  if
• 1:05:17
  I
• 1:05:17
  didn't,
• 1:05:17
  I
• 1:05:17
  was
• 1:05:17
  snacking
• 1:05:18
  at
• 1:05:18
  3
• 1:05:18
  o'
• 1:05:18
  clock
• 1:05:19
  and
• 1:05:19
  eating
• 1:05:19
  a
• 1:05:19
  bunch
• 1:05:19
  of
• 1:05:19
  carbs
• 1:05:20
  and
• 1:05:20
  stuff
• 1:05:20
  I
• 1:05:20
  didn't
• 1:05:20
  want
• 1:05:20
  to
• 1:05:21
  eat.
• 1:05:21
  All
• 1:05:22
  of
• 1:05:22
  these
• 1:05:22
  little
• 1:05:23
  habits
• 1:05:23
  added
• 1:05:24
  up
• 1:05:24
  to
• 1:05:25
  now
• 1:05:25
  I
• 1:05:25
  feel
• 1:05:25
  like
• 1:05:25
  I've
• 1:05:26
  got
• 1:05:26
  a
• 1:05:26
  pretty
• 1:05:26
  tight
• 1:05:27
  schedule.
• 1:05:27
  You
• 1:05:28
  know,
• 1:05:28
  I,
• 1:05:28
  I
• 1:05:28
  make
• 1:05:28
  my
• 1:05:29
  juices
• 1:05:29
  ahead
• 1:05:30
  of
• 1:05:30
  time,
• 1:05:30
  I
• 1:05:30
  make
• 1:05:30
  my
• 1:05:30
  chicken
• 1:05:31
  salad
• 1:05:31
  ahead
• 1:05:31
  of
• 1:05:32
  time.
• 1:05:32
  I've
• 1:05:33
  got
• 1:05:33
  enough
• 1:05:33
  stuff
• 1:05:34
  already
• 1:05:34
  prepared
• 1:05:35
  and
• 1:05:35
  ready
• 1:05:35
  to
• 1:05:36
  go
• 1:05:36
  and
• 1:05:36
  I
• 1:05:36
  have
• 1:05:36
  my
• 1:05:36
  little
• 1:05:37
  routine.
• 1:05:38
  So
• 1:05:39
  although
• 1:05:39
  I'm
• 1:05:40
  doing
• 1:05:40
  all
• 1:05:40
  the
• 1:05:40
  Things
• 1:05:40
  that
• 1:05:41
  might
• 1:05:41
  seem
• 1:05:41
  overwhelming,
• 1:05:42
  it's
• 1:05:42
  just
• 1:05:42
  habitual
• 1:05:43
  at
• 1:05:43
  this
• 1:05:43
  point.
• 1:05:44
  And
• 1:05:45
  I'm
• 1:05:45
  very
• 1:05:45
  happy.
• 1:05:46
  I
• 1:05:47
  don't
• 1:05:47
  have
• 1:05:47
  a
• 1:05:48
  lot
• 1:05:48
  of
• 1:05:48
  noise.
• 1:05:48
  I
• 1:05:48
  don't
• 1:05:49
  have
• 1:05:49
  a
• 1:05:49
  lot
• 1:05:49
  of
• 1:05:49
  decisions
• 1:05:50
  to
• 1:05:50
  make
• 1:05:50
  around
• 1:05:50
  it.
• 1:05:51
  I
• 1:05:51
  just
• 1:05:52
  know
• 1:05:53
  my
• 1:05:53
  program
• 1:05:54
  and
• 1:05:54
  I
• 1:05:54
  do
• 1:05:55
  it,
• 1:05:55
  and
• 1:05:55
  it
• 1:05:55
  makes
• 1:05:55
  me
• 1:05:55
  happy.
• 1:05:56
  That's
• 1:05:57
  great.
• 1:05:57
  And
• 1:05:57
  time
• 1:05:57
  management
• 1:05:58
  is
• 1:05:58
  so
• 1:05:58
  important
• 1:05:59
  because
• 1:06:00
  that
• 1:06:00
  is
• 1:06:01
  key
• 1:06:01
  when
• 1:06:01
  you
• 1:06:01
  want
• 1:06:01
  to
• 1:06:02
  get
• 1:06:02
  kind
• 1:06:02
  of
• 1:06:02
  your
• 1:06:02
  life
• 1:06:03
  back
• 1:06:03
  on
• 1:06:03
  track
• 1:06:03
  a
• 1:06:03
  bit
• 1:06:04
  as
• 1:06:04
  it
• 1:06:04
  relates
• 1:06:05
  to
• 1:06:05
  health
• 1:06:05
  and
• 1:06:05
  wellness.
• 1:06:06
  Yeah.
• 1:06:07
  And
• 1:06:07
  sort
• 1:06:07
  of
• 1:06:07
  planning
• 1:06:08
  ahead.
• 1:06:08
  Like
• 1:06:08
  in
• 1:06:08
  my
• 1:06:08
  purse.
• 1:06:09
  I
• 1:06:09
  mean,
• 1:06:09
  I
• 1:06:09
  always
• 1:06:09
  joke
• 1:06:10
  that
• 1:06:10
  if
• 1:06:10
  I
• 1:06:11
  were
• 1:06:11
  to
• 1:06:11
  get
• 1:06:11
  lost
• 1:06:11
  in
• 1:06:12
  the
• 1:06:12
  woods,
• 1:06:12
  I
• 1:06:12
  mean,
• 1:06:12
  I
• 1:06:12
  probably
• 1:06:12
  have
• 1:06:13
  enough
• 1:06:13
  in
• 1:06:13
  my
• 1:06:13
  purse
• 1:06:13
  to
• 1:06:14
  last,
• 1:06:14
  like,
• 1:06:14
  a
• 1:06:14
  week.
• 1:06:17
  I
• 1:06:17
  know
• 1:06:17
  for
• 1:06:18
  me,
• 1:06:18
  if
• 1:06:18
  I
• 1:06:18
  go
• 1:06:19
  too
• 1:06:19
  many
• 1:06:19
  hours
• 1:06:20
  without
• 1:06:20
  eating,
• 1:06:21
  like,
• 1:06:21
  four
• 1:06:21
  hours
• 1:06:22
  is
• 1:06:22
  my
• 1:06:23
  cutoff.
• 1:06:23
  So
• 1:06:24
  I
• 1:06:24
  have,
• 1:06:24
  even
• 1:06:25
  though
• 1:06:26
  I
• 1:06:26
  shouldn't
• 1:06:26
  be
• 1:06:26
  eating
• 1:06:26
  a
• 1:06:27
  lot
• 1:06:27
  of
• 1:06:27
  red
• 1:06:27
  meat.
• 1:06:27
  In
• 1:06:27
  my
• 1:06:28
  bag,
• 1:06:28
  I've
• 1:06:28
  got
• 1:06:28
  beef
• 1:06:29
  sticks
• 1:06:29
  because
• 1:06:29
  they're
• 1:06:30
  easy
• 1:06:30
  to
• 1:06:30
  transport.
• 1:06:31
  So
• 1:06:31
  I
• 1:06:32
  have
• 1:06:32
  beef
• 1:06:32
  sticks
• 1:06:32
  with
• 1:06:32
  10
• 1:06:33
  grams
• 1:06:33
  each.
• 1:06:33
  Venison
• 1:06:34
  sticks.
• 1:06:35
  So
• 1:06:35
  just
• 1:06:35
  three
• 1:06:35
  of
• 1:06:36
  those
• 1:06:36
  is
• 1:06:36
  30
• 1:06:36
  grams
• 1:06:37
  right
• 1:06:37
  there.
• 1:06:37
  Oh,
• 1:06:38
  that's
• 1:06:38
  good.
• 1:06:39
  It's
• 1:06:39
  easy.
• 1:06:40
  And
• 1:06:40
  I've
• 1:06:40
  got
• 1:06:40
  mixed
• 1:06:41
  nuts.
• 1:06:41
  I
• 1:06:41
  usually
• 1:06:42
  have
• 1:06:42
  an
• 1:06:42
  apple
• 1:06:42
  or
• 1:06:43
  something,
• 1:06:43
  so.
• 1:06:44
  And
• 1:06:44
  I'll
• 1:06:44
  save
• 1:06:44
  the
• 1:06:44
  apple
• 1:06:45
  for
• 1:06:45
  after
• 1:06:46
  the
• 1:06:46
  fat
• 1:06:46
  and
• 1:06:46
  protein,
• 1:06:47
  say,
• 1:06:47
  because
• 1:06:47
  of
• 1:06:47
  the
• 1:06:48
  glucose.
• 1:06:48
  But
• 1:06:49
  if
• 1:06:49
  I
• 1:06:49
  am
• 1:06:50
  stuck
• 1:06:50
  in
• 1:06:50
  between
• 1:06:50
  meetings
• 1:06:51
  or
• 1:06:51
  in
• 1:06:51
  traffic
• 1:06:52
  and
• 1:06:52
  this
• 1:06:52
  is
• 1:06:53
  my
• 1:06:53
  time
• 1:06:53
  to
• 1:06:53
  eat,
• 1:06:54
  I
• 1:06:54
  have
• 1:06:54
  a
• 1:06:54
  full
• 1:06:55
  meal
• 1:06:55
  that's
• 1:06:55
  really
• 1:06:56
  comprised
• 1:06:56
  of
• 1:06:57
  snacks,
• 1:06:57
  but
• 1:06:57
  it
• 1:06:57
  is
• 1:06:58
  not
• 1:06:58
  a
• 1:06:58
  snack
• 1:06:58
  because
• 1:06:59
  it's
• 1:06:59
  enough
• 1:06:59
  macros
• 1:07:00
  to
• 1:07:00
  keep
• 1:07:00
  me
• 1:07:01
  satiated
• 1:07:01
  to
• 1:07:02
  protect
• 1:07:02
  my
• 1:07:02
  bones
• 1:07:02
  and
• 1:07:02
  muscle
• 1:07:03
  until
• 1:07:04
  the
• 1:07:04
  next
• 1:07:05
  meal.
• 1:07:05
  And
• 1:07:05
  it
• 1:07:06
  also
• 1:07:06
  prevents
• 1:07:06
  me
• 1:07:06
  from
• 1:07:07
  rushing
• 1:07:08
  into
• 1:07:08
  the
• 1:07:08
  house
• 1:07:08
  and
• 1:07:09
  what
• 1:07:09
  am
• 1:07:09
  I
• 1:07:09
  doing?
• 1:07:09
  I'm,
• 1:07:09
  like,
• 1:07:10
  getting
• 1:07:10
  out
• 1:07:10
  chips
• 1:07:10
  and
• 1:07:10
  salsa
• 1:07:11
  or
• 1:07:11
  something
• 1:07:11
  because
• 1:07:12
  I'm
• 1:07:12
  just
• 1:07:12
  starving.
• 1:07:12
  So
• 1:07:13
  it
• 1:07:13
  really
• 1:07:13
  prevents
• 1:07:13
  that.
• 1:07:14
  And
• 1:07:14
  that's
• 1:07:14
  a
• 1:07:14
  good
• 1:07:14
  point.
• 1:07:15
  Don't
• 1:07:15
  starve
• 1:07:15
  yourself.
• 1:07:16
  Like,
• 1:07:16
  that's
• 1:07:17
  probably
• 1:07:17
  the
• 1:07:17
  worst
• 1:07:18
  thing
• 1:07:18
  somebody
• 1:07:18
  can
• 1:07:18
  do.
• 1:07:19
  Stay
• 1:07:19
  ahead
• 1:07:19
  of
• 1:07:20
  it.
• 1:07:20
  Stay
• 1:07:21
  out
• 1:07:21
  of
• 1:07:21
  it.
• 1:07:21
  You
• 1:07:21
  know,
• 1:07:22
  that's
• 1:07:22
  the
• 1:07:22
  thing
• 1:07:22
  with
• 1:07:22
  the
• 1:07:22
  morning
• 1:07:23
  eating.
• 1:07:23
  It's
• 1:07:23
  like,
• 1:07:24
  even
• 1:07:24
  I
• 1:07:24
  understand
• 1:07:24
  that
• 1:07:25
  your
• 1:07:25
  cortisol
• 1:07:25
  is
• 1:07:25
  high.
• 1:07:26
  You
• 1:07:26
  don't
• 1:07:26
  feel
• 1:07:26
  like
• 1:07:26
  eating,
• 1:07:28
  but
• 1:07:28
  you
• 1:07:28
  really
• 1:07:29
  within
• 1:07:29
  that
• 1:07:29
  first
• 1:07:29
  hour
• 1:07:30
  to
• 1:07:31
  set
• 1:07:31
  yourself
• 1:07:31
  up
• 1:07:31
  for
• 1:07:31
  success
• 1:07:32
  the
• 1:07:32
  rest
• 1:07:32
  of
• 1:07:32
  the
• 1:07:32
  day,
• 1:07:33
  whether
• 1:07:33
  it's
• 1:07:33
  drinking,
• 1:07:34
  drinking
• 1:07:35
  a
• 1:07:35
  smoothie,
• 1:07:35
  even
• 1:07:35
  if
• 1:07:36
  it
• 1:07:36
  has
• 1:07:36
  to
• 1:07:36
  be
• 1:07:36
  liquid,
• 1:07:38
  just
• 1:07:38
  set.
• 1:07:39
  Set
• 1:07:39
  the
• 1:07:39
  precedent
• 1:07:40
  early
• 1:07:40
  on
• 1:07:40
  in
• 1:07:41
  your
• 1:07:41
  day
• 1:07:41
  because
• 1:07:41
  you're
• 1:07:41
  going
• 1:07:42
  to
• 1:07:42
  set
• 1:07:42
  yourself
• 1:07:42
  up
• 1:07:42
  for
• 1:07:43
  success.
• 1:07:44
  That's
• 1:07:44
  great.
• 1:07:45
  Oh,
• 1:07:45

  to

  post

  My

  website
• 1:08:19
  is
• 1:08:19
  Strong
• 1:08:19
  Choices,
• 1:08:20
  and
• 1:08:21
  I
• 1:08:21
  have
• 1:08:22
  just
• 1:08:22
  finished
• 1:08:22
  my
• 1:08:23
  book
• 1:08:23
  on
• 1:08:23
  bone
• 1:08:24
  health,
• 1:08:24
  and
• 1:08:25
  so
• 1:08:25
  I
• 1:08:25
  don't
• 1:08:25
  have
• 1:08:26
  a
• 1:08:26
  release
• 1:08:26
  date,
• 1:08:26
  but
• 1:08:26
  it's
• 1:08:27
  finished.
• 1:08:27
  And
• 1:08:27
  I'm
• 1:08:28
  excited
• 1:08:28
  because
• 1:08:29
  that's
• 1:08:29
  been
• 1:08:30
  a
• 1:08:30
  labor
• 1:08:30
  of
• 1:08:31
  love.
• 1:08:31
  So
• 1:08:32
  at
• 1:08:32
  some
• 1:08:32
  point
• 1:08:32
  that
• 1:08:32
  will
• 1:08:32
  be
• 1:08:32
  out.
• 1:08:33
  I
• 1:08:33
  heard
• 1:08:33
  that
• 1:08:34
  it
• 1:08:34
  was.
• 1:08:34
  Is
• 1:08:34
  the
• 1:08:34
  name
• 1:08:34
  Sexy
• 1:08:35
  Bones?
• 1:08:36
  Sexy
• 1:08:36
  Bones.
• 1:08:37
  Oh,
• 1:08:38
  I
• 1:08:38
  love
• 1:08:38
  that
• 1:08:38
  name.
• 1:08:39
  Well,
• 1:08:40
  the
• 1:08:40
  concept
• 1:08:40
  is
• 1:08:41
  if
• 1:08:41
  your
• 1:08:41
  bones
• 1:08:41
  are
• 1:08:41
  in
• 1:08:42
  good
• 1:08:42
  shape,
• 1:08:42
  there's
• 1:08:43
  a
• 1:08:43
  pretty
• 1:08:43
  good
• 1:08:43
  chance
• 1:08:43
  your
• 1:08:44
  hair
• 1:08:44
  looks
• 1:08:44
  good,
• 1:08:44
  your
• 1:08:44
  nails
• 1:08:45
  look
• 1:08:45
  good,
• 1:08:45
  your
• 1:08:45
  skin
• 1:08:46
  looks
• 1:08:46
  good,
• 1:08:46
  you're
• 1:08:46
  living
• 1:08:47
  a
• 1:08:47
  vibrant
• 1:08:47
  life.
• 1:08:47
  It's
• 1:08:48
  all
• 1:08:48
  very
• 1:08:48
  much
• 1:08:49
  connected.
• 1:08:49
  And
• 1:08:49
  I
• 1:08:50
  want
• 1:08:50
  younger
• 1:08:51
  women
• 1:08:51
  in
• 1:08:51
  their
• 1:08:51
  20s
• 1:08:52
  to
• 1:08:53
  make
• 1:08:53
  that
• 1:08:53
  connection
• 1:08:54
  to.

  Absolutely.
• 1:08:55
  It's

  a
• 1:08:56

• 1:08:56
  tool.
• 1:08:56
  I'm
• 1:08:57
  sure
• 1:08:57
  it'll
• 1:08:57
  be
• 1:08:57
  amazing
• 1:08:57
  when
• 1:08:58
  it
• 1:08:58
