Longevity.Everybody wants to know how to live to 100. What should I eat? What supplement should I take? Should I fast? Should I take NAD?

Today we're going to explore how fasting interacts with women's hormones and why the best approach often changes throughout different stages of life.One of the biggest mistakes in the nutrition world is assuming that if something works for one person, it should work for everyone.Human biology doesn't work that way.Women have a much more dynamic hormonal environment than men. iNSULIN RESISTANCE...

If I could wave a magic wand and help every listener understand one thing about their health, it might be this:Insulin resistance.It isn't glamorous.
