Quick takeaways

The medical system has historically neglected women's health by excluding them from research, leading to inappropriate treatments for various conditions.

Menopause dramatically elevates cardiovascular risks in women, despite the protective role of estrogen and the benefits of hormone replacement therapy that many women do not receive.

Effective support from male partners during menopause can be fostered through communication and shared involvement in healthcare discussions, enhancing understanding and compassion.

The medical system has systematically failed women for decades, creating unique health challenges that impact everything from heart disease to mental wellness. In this eye-opening conversation, I bring together three brilliant female doctors who are revolutionizing women's health from different angles. Dr. Mary Claire Haver exposes how women were excluded from medical studies until 1993, sharing her personal menopause journey alongside scientific insights. Dr. Rhonda Patrick challenges conventional aging theories with her groundbreaking research suggesting aging might be a reprogrammable process controlled by our epigenetics. Meanwhile, Dr. Caroline Leaf transforms our understanding of mental health with her powerful neurocycle method that produced an 81% improvement in anxiety and depression symptoms. This episode delivers essential wisdom for anyone looking to understand women's unique health journeys and provides actionable strategies for optimizing physical and mental wellbeing at any age.

In this episode you will learn:

Why treatments for women are often based on studies of men, and how this leads to inappropriate care for conditions like high cholesterol and heart disease
The surprising truth about hormone replacement therapy and why only 4-6% of menopausal women receive it despite its benefits
How men can effectively support partners going through menopause by educating themselves and attending doctor appointments
A revolutionary insight that aging may be a programmable process controlled by epigenetics rather than accumulated damage
The three supplements to prioritize if limited to only a few
The powerful five-step "neurocycle" process that can reduce anxiety and depression symptoms by up to 81%
Why labeling mental health challenges as "diseases" can be harmful and how to reframe your experience
How to break the cycle of fight-or-flight responses during acute stress using mindful awareness techniques
