    Meet Your 80-Year-Old Self: It Motivates Better Health Choices - Zora Benhamou

    26/10/2026 | 34 mins.
    Can you picture yourself at 80? Like, really picture her? Most of us can't. And the research says that's exactly why we don't take great care of her.
    We cover:
    My ChatGPT experiment and why it hit me so hard

    The "mother's age milestone" and what losing a parent young can you feel

    The research on how connecting with your future self changes your choices

    The window of opportunity that only happens in menopause 

    What AI can't do for you, and what matters most for your future self

    What a 78-Year-Old Doctor Takes for Hormones, Energy and Longevity - Dr. Lindsey Berkson

    23/10/2026 | 1h 15 mins.
    Are you taking supplements for menopause, your gut, sleep or whatever is bothering you at the moment and not sure if they're doing anything? Or are you interested in adding some supplements to your other health practices, but not sure how to go about it, who to trust and what to even look for?
    We cover:
    Why the supplements you're taking might be going to waste, and the one thing that has to be working first

    The everyday exposures inside your own home that are draining your nutrients

    How to tell if a supplement brand is actually trustworthy, and the exact questions to ask before you buy

    The detox step that changed how her patients respond to hormones

    What Lindsey personally takes at almost 78, and why she still skips days on purpose

     
    Dr. Lindsey Berkson is a pioneer in hormone and nutritional health with over four decades of clinical and research experience. She's triple board-certified in nutrition, a hormone scholar at Tulane University's estrogen think tank, and one of the first practitioners to bridge endocrinology, nutrition, and gut health into an integrated approach to healing. She's also the author of more than 20 books, including Hormone Deception and Healthy Digestion the Natural Way, and has developed physician-formulated nutraceutical lines and patented bioidentical hormone applications.

    Increase Bone Density 8% In 1 Year? Or Is DEXA Flawed? - Sandra Iuliano

    19/10/2026 | 1h 4 mins.
    Have you ever been told you have osteoporosis, and told to just take calcium, and sent on your way with zero other questions asked? Would you like to hear what a bone researcher who specialises in nutrition and exercise has to say about this?
     We cover:
    Why "I eat tons of dairy and still have osteoporosis" isn't the gotcha people think it is

    What your bone density score can't see, and what matters even more

    How much of your bone strength is genetic, and how to max out the range you were given

    How I rebuilt 8% bone density in under a year, and what Sandra says really drove it

    Calcium, vitamin D, and K2: which forms your body can actually use, and when supplements just become expensive urine

     
    Dr. Sandra Iuliano is a nutritionist and internationally renowned researcher from the Department of Medicine at the University of Melbourne, Australia. Her research focuses on nutrition and exercise across the lifespan; specifically, to improve musculoskeletal health including studying the effects of exercise and calcium in bone growth in children, vitamin D supplementation to prevent bone loss in adults and food-based approaches to prevent falls, fractures and malnutrition in older adults in aged-care. Former World Age Group Triathlon Champion. Over 50 years of competitive sport participation.

    Why Meditation Fails For Some And What Works Better - Jim Poole

    16/10/2026 | 55 mins.
    Do you lie awake at 2am with your mind racing, even though you're completely exhausted? Have you been told to "just meditate" and "just breathe," but your brain flat out refuses to slow down?
    We cover:
    What actually happens in the brain and nervous system when hormones decline, and why calm gets so much harder

    The one calming brain chemical most of us are running low on, and why food and supplements barely move the needle

    Your brain's five "zones," including the exact frequency for deep healing and the one for laser focus

    Why relaxing music may not be good enough, and what's better to drop our brain into a monk-like state in about 4 minutes

    How I got through hip surgery and crushing 2am anxiety without a single anti-anxiety pill

    12/10/2026 | 56 mins.
    Is it time you started to get some kind of a skincare routine, but you're really not sure where to start? Or maybe you look at those 12-step routines online and think, who has the time, the money, or the counter space for all that?

    The single most important thing for youthful skin, and it's not a product

    The dead-simple routine that makes the biggest difference if you do nothing else
