Ep #133: Defy Aging with Nutrition & Supplements in Perimenopause & Menopause with Dr. Greg Kelly 43:31

för 11 weeks sedan43:31

43:31

In this sponsored interview, Andrea Donsky, nutritionist, menopause educator, published menopause researcher, and co-founder of Morphus, discusses senolytics with Dr. Gregory Kelly - Director of Product Development at Qualia Life Sciences, naturopathic physician, and author of "Shape Shift." Women in perimenopause and menopause should explore the benefits of senolytics for cellular aging because of the impact on their menopausal symptoms and overall health. During menopause, there's an accelerated accumulation of senescent cells (zombie cells) in the body, which can trigger inflammation, joint pain, and other age-related issues that make menopausal symptoms more challenging to manage. Understanding these changes helps women take steps to help them feel better and improve their long-term health. Senolytics are used only a couple of days a month, but the benefits can be felt, especially as shown by the studies done on joint pain. Key Points: Explore how cellular aging affects women during perimenopause and menopause. When cells have trouble producing energy and the body's repair cells decline, menopausal symptoms can become more severe. Discover what senescent cells ("zombie cells") are and why they accumulate more after menopause. Learn how senolytic compounds can help remove accumulated senescent cells contributing to joint pain and other issues. Understand why an intermittent approach to senolytics (2 days per month) is more effective than daily supplementation. Get practical tips for using senolytics safely and effectively during your menopause journey.

Types of Research Conducted Various types of research include clinical trials, surveys, and intervention studies focusing on different health conditions. Specific areas of focus include brain health during menopause and the impact of menopausal symptoms on chronic disease risks like diabetes and heart disease. Lifestyle and Nutrition Insights Dr. Burns emphasizes the importance of lifestyle factors such as diet and exercise in managing menopausal symptoms. The Mediterranean diet is highlighted for its benefits on brain health, heart health, and diabetes prevention. Resistance training is crucial for maintaining muscle mass and bone health during menopause. Research Gaps and Future Directions There is a need for longitudinal studies to understand the long-term health trajectory of women entering menopause. More research is needed on conditions like PCOS and their impact during menopause.

Ep #120: The Hidden Dangers Of Air Pollution In Our Homes 52:52

för 26 weeks sedan52:52

52:52

In this conversation, Andrea Donsky, nutritionist and soon-to-be Published Menopause Researcher, speaks with Mike Feldstein, founder of Jaspr and an air quality expert. They discuss the significant issue of indoor air pollution, which can be 2 to 5 times more polluted than outdoor air , according to the U.S. EPA. People spend 90% of their time indoors, so understanding and improving indoor air quality is crucial. Key Points Indoor Air Pollution Sources: Common pollutants include cleaning products, smoke, off-gassing from new furniture and electronics, mold, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Cooking is identified as the largest source of indoor pollution. Air Composition: Air consists mainly of nitrogen (78%) and oxygen (20%), with trace gases. The importance of clean air is likened to how fish rely on clean water for survival. Impact of Renovations: Andrew shares his experience renovating his home with eco-friendly materials to avoid off-gassing pollutants. He emphasizes the lingering effects of indoor pollutants after renovations. Ventilation Importance: Effective ventilation is essential to reduce indoor pollutants. Many homes have poorly functioning vents that do not vent air outside, which can exacerbate air quality issues. Practical Solutions: Regular vent maintenance and proper cooking techniques can help improve indoor air quality. Mike suggests annual deep cleaning as a good practice for maintaining a healthy environment. Sleep quality. Poor air quality can lead to respiratory issues, allergies, and discomfort, disrupting sleep. A study by Jaspr, showed that improving air quality led to individuals sleeping on average 25 more minutes per night, experiencing 18% more deep sleep, and falling asleep 5% faster. Overall, the episode highlights the need for greater awareness and proactive measures regarding indoor air quality to enhance health and well-being.

Ep #116: Strength Matters: Lift Heavy Sh*t with Melissa Hyde 56:23

för 30 weeks sedan56:23

56:23

In episode #116 of "Menopause Reimagined," Andrea Donsky chats with Melissa Hyde, a fitness expert, about the power of weightlifting for women in perimenopause and menopause. With over 35 years of experience, Melissa shares her insights on how strength training can enhance overall health and help with weight gain, longevity/healthspan, and quality of life for midlife women. This episode highlights the critical importance of incorporating strength training into midlife women's fitness routines. By dispelling common myths and emphasizing the health benefits associated with weightlifting, Andrea and Melissa aim to inspire listeners to embrace a more active lifestyle for better health outcomes during menopause. Key Takeaways The Need for Strength Training: Women lose muscle mass and bone density as early as 30, losing 3-5% per decade. By age 80, this could lose up to 30% of muscle mass if not addressed through strength training. Myth-Busting Weightlifting: Many women fear becoming "bulky" from lifting weights. Melissa emphasizes that building significant muscle mass requires dedicated training and is not a concern for most women. Health Benefits of Muscle Mass: Increased muscle mass is linked to improved longevity, cognitive health, and reduced risk of falls and fractures. Strength training helps maintain independence as women age. Recommended Training Frequency: Melissa suggests that midlife women use strength training 2-4 times per week, focusing on proper form and gradually increasing intensity. Connection Between Muscle and Bone Health: Lifting weights applies force on bones, promoting bone density and reducing the risk of osteoporosis.

Understanding Cholesterol: Dr. Manson explains the complexities of cholesterol levels, discussing the significance of LDL and HDL cholesterol.

Key Takeaways from the Podcast - Andrea Donsky and Dr. Michelle May discuss their shared experiences of growing up in an era focused on weight loss, calorie counting, and dieting. - Mindful eating is defined as eating with intention and attention, focusing on internal cues of hunger, satiety, enjoyment, and satisfaction rather than external rules or restrictions. - Mindful eating is similar to intuitive eating, with both approaches emphasizing an "inside-out" process of reconnecting with the body's natural signals1. - Emotional and mindless eating are common challenges, often triggered by stress, boredom, or other unmet needs. Pausing to check in with physical, mental, and emotional states can help identify the root cause. - Strategies for mindful eating include: - Pausing to check in on physical hunger cues, thoughts, and emotions before eating - Redirecting attention to other activities when not physically hungry - Exploring the underlying reasons for wanting to eat, such as boredom or stress, and finding alternative ways to address those needs - Using deep breathing to calm the nervous system before eating - Avoid using exercise as punishment or to "earn" the right to eat, as this can create an unhealthy relationship with food and movement.
