Hack My Age : Menopause Upgrade

Are you a mom who has put her own health on the back burner because someone else needs you more? Or maybe you're caring for a child with autism or an aging parent and have no idea where to even begin when it comes to your own wellbeing? 
We cover:
What 21 years of caring for a child with autism actually taught one mom about the human body

Why caregivers are silently aging faster and what to do about it before it's too late

The biological layers underneath an autism diagnosis that most doctors never address

The specific blood labs that need to be optimized that could be the first domino for both you and your child

What really happens when you stop sacrificing your health and start treating yourself like a patient too

 
Nadia Elkhatib hosts Biohacking Autism, a weekly podcast bringing biohacking, peptides, and functional medicine to autism families. Nadia spent years working in Silicon Valley tech before her son Jimmy's autism diagnosis pulled her into a different kind of research entirely. For 19 years she has worked on the integrative side of autism: biomedical protocols and most recently hormone and thyroid optimization. After her own labs surfaced significant metabolic and hormonal dysfunction, she expanded her work into caregiver longevity, the recognition that her own healthspan is her son's safety net. Real solutions for people with autism and the ones who love them.

Are you taking your supplements, eating well, maybe even on HRT, but you're still exhausted, still not sleeping, still dealing with brain fog and hair loss? Did you know that if you are taking calcium supplements for your bones, this could actually backfire and deplete your bones of minerals? 
We cover:
Why taking more calcium can actually lower how much your body absorbs

The surprising link between sugar cravings and what your cells are really asking for

What "empty water" is doing to your mineral levels every single day

Why your go-to magnesium habit might be working against your bone density

The difference between supplementing and replenishing, and why it changes how everything else works, including HRT

Did you start taking progesterone and now confused if you are supposed to take it every day or only for two weeks?
Or maybe you don't have a uterus anymore, and you keep going back and forth on whether you should take it anyway or just leave it? You heard there are both risks and benefits and not sure what to do?
We cover:
How to take progesterone if you're cycling

What to do when progesterone gives you two great weeks of sleep, but told to stop for two weeks.

Continuous versus cyclic, and how to tell which one your body would prefer

The latest information about progesterone and cancer, heart, and dementia risk

What I would personally do about progesterone if I didn't have a uterus

Are you overwhelmed by all the things you need to do to make your bones stronger? Doing the right kind of exercise, eating more protein, getting your vitamins and minerals, hormones, sleep…how are you supposed to fit it all in? Would you like to know how…in just 3 minutes a day? 
We cover:
Why the exercises you think are building bone probably aren't

The one type of movement that can grow bone density in just minutes a day

What your DEXA scan is telling you and, more importantly, what it's missing

Why osteopenia doesn't have to be a diagnosis you fear

The free app built directly from clinical trial research that makes this stupidly easy to start
