Can AI Predict Your Ovarian Age? With Timeless Biotech CEO Kiran Kumar

Bone Health: Why You Should Care Before Menopause

Most women don't think about their bone health until something breaks, but by then, the foundation has often been quietly eroding for decades. From restrictive eating in our youth to digestive issues, chronic stress, thyroid imbalances, and the dramatic drop in estrogen during menopause, the factors influencing our bone density are wide-reaching and often overlooked in conventional care. In this episode, Dr. Miranda Naylor sits down with Cindy Dupuis, a functional medicine nutritionist with over 20 years of experience specializing in women through perimenopause and menopause. After going into menopause herself at 43, Cindy has made it her mission to help women become their own advocates and understand the full picture of what's happening in their bodies during this transition. Together, they explore why bone health is one of the most under-discussed pieces of women's longevity, how to advocate for an early DEXA scan, the blood markers most doctors aren't checking, and what you can do at every stage to protect your bones for life. We'll explore: ✔️ Why bone health matters for long-term independence, mobility, and quality of life  ✔️ The surprising risk factors that put women at greater risk of osteoporosis  ✔️ Why getting a DEXA scan in perimenopause (not at 65) could change everything  ✔️ The blood markers (CTX and P1NP) that reveal what's really happening in your bones  ✔️ How estrogen, digestion, thyroid, and nutrition all play a role in bone density  ✔️ Practical lifestyle, nutrition, and movement strategies to support strong bones at any age If you've ever wondered whether you're doing enough to protect your bones, or if you've been told "everything looks fine" while feeling unsure, this episode will empower you with the questions to ask, the labs to request, and the lifestyle shifts that can make a real difference for your future self. * Why bone health matters more than most women realize  * Cindy's journey into specializing in menopause  * Why doctors aren't trained in perimenopause and menopause  * The problem with waiting until 65 for a DEXA scan  * Risk factors that put women at higher risk of osteoporosis 1 * Why a broken hip is more serious than most people realize  * When bone density peaks and when it starts to decline  * What impacts bone density beyond estrogen  * Blood markers to monitor: CTX and P1NP  * How thyroid issues affect bone breakdown  * The role of digestion, stomach acid, and bile in bone health  * What to do if your DEXA shows significant bone loss  * Cindy's personal experience with a doctor's misguided recommendation  * The truth about weighted vests and bone health  * Where to find Cindy Dupuis 🎧 Hit Subscribe or Follow so you never miss an episode.

What New Moms Aren't Told About Postpartum Recovery

The postpartum period is one of the most significant transitions in a woman's life, yet it remains one of the most underserved areas in modern healthcare.

In this episode, Dr. Miranda Naylor sits down with Dr. Kate Hom and Coach Savannah Miller, co-founders of Mone Wellness, to explore an integrative and functional approach to postpartum care.

Your Body Isn't Broken, It's In Survival Mode with Dr. Kavin Mistry

Many people move through life believing stress only comes from emotional overwhelm or major life events, while overlooking how modern living itself may be pushing the body into survival mode. From poor sleep and constant multitasking to technology use, posture, circadian disruption, and metabolic stress, these daily patterns can quietly impact hormones, fertility, energy, and long-term health in ways most people never realize. In this episode, Dr. Miranda Naylor sits down with Dr. Kaveen Mistry to explore how our modern environment influences the brain-body connection and why so many people may be stuck in chronic survival mode. Dr. Mistry shares insights from over 20 years as a neuroradiologist reviewing more than 300,000 scans, where he observed how some people biologically age far faster than their chronological age while others maintain remarkably youthful brains and bodies. Together, they discuss the HPA axis, cortisol, fertility, circadian rhythms, posture, mitochondrial health, multitasking, and the importance of aligning with our “primal design” to support long-term wellbeing. We’ll explore: ✔️ How survival mode impacts hormones, fertility, and overall health ✔️ Why sleep, posture, movement, and circadian rhythm matter more than most people realize ✔️ The connection between cortisol, mitochondrial health, and energy production ✔️ How modern habits like multitasking and constant technology use stress the brain and body ✔️ Why women may be especially sensitive to environmental and emotional stressors ✔️ Practical ways to create more safety signals for the body in everyday life If you’ve been feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, disconnected from your body, or stuck in chronic stress, this episode offers a powerful perspective on how modern life may be affecting your health and what you can do to reconnect with the way your body was designed to function. * Aging * Dr Kavin’s background * 7 key paradigms that influence aging * Women being more sensitive to environmental and emotional stress * Survival mode vs safety mode * Circadian rhythm and modern stress * Sleep * Cortisol and mitochondrial dysfunction * Factors that cause more strain to your system * Aligning your body * Multitasking * Primal alignment and healthy aging * Fear of mortality and living intentionally * Where to find Dr Kavin Grab your copy of Primal Health Design here: https://kavinmistrymd.com/primal-health-design/  Website: https://kavinmistrymd.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kavinmistry.md Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@kavinmistrym.d Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/kavinmistrymd/ 🎧 Hit Subscribe or Follow so you never miss an episode.

Why Your Antioxidant Defenses Decline — and How to Fight Back with Francois Vix

Most people have never heard of superoxide dismutase, even though it plays a critical role in how the body handles stress at a cellular level. That gap in understanding leaves a lot of people focused on surface-level health while missing what is actually driving aging, inflammation, and recovery behind the scenes. In this episode, I sit down with François Vix, President and CEO of GliSODin, who brings over 20 years of experience in the beauty and health industry, including work with brands like L’Oréal, Lancôme, and Neutrogena. We break down what oxidative stress really is and why it matters more than most people realize. We talk through how the body produces energy and the damage that can come with it, why recovery slows down over time, and how this connects to things like skin health, inflammation, and long-term disease risk. We also get into the role of superoxide dismutase, how it supports cellular balance, and why supporting your body internally can change how you feel and function day to day. We’ll explore: ✔️ What oxidative stress is and how it impacts your cells ✔️ Why the body needs superoxide dismutase to stay alive ✔️ How free radicals contribute to aging and inflammation ✔️ Why recovery becomes more difficult as you get older ✔️ The connection between internal health, skin, and overall function If you want to better understand what is happening inside your body and how to support it long term, this episode gives you a clearer picture. You’ll walk away with a deeper understanding of how your body handles stress and what actually influences how you feel over time. * What is SOD and why it matters * François Voix background * Origin of SOD * Medical use of SOD * Why François got interested * Building the company and product development * What oxidative stress actually is * How oxidative stress impacts aging and disease * SOD production, lifestyle, and recovery with age * Hormones * Effects on energy, sleep, and overall function * Skin disease * Lifestyle changes * Final takeaway * François research website 🎧 Hit Subscribe or Follow so you never miss an episode.
