Compression Training, Muscle, and Menopause: Redefining Strength After 40 - Alex Birks

Starting around age 30, we lose about 1% of our muscle mass each year. But during perimenopause, that number can jump to a staggering 10%.

In this episode, I sit down with Alex Birks, founder of Suji, a tech-forward company that's making smart, safe compression training more accessible.

How TCT boosts growth hormone, improves vascularity, and supports brain health Why it's ideal for midlife women dealing with hormonal shifts, injuries, or joint issues What the research says about compression training and menopause Who shouldn't use this technology (contraindications you should know) How Suji is making training safer, smarter, and more affordable as we age Alex Birks is a robotics engineer, athlete, and founder of Suji, a breakthrough company bringing smart, safe targeted compression training to everyone from pro athletes to everyday movers.

Delay Menopause? 12 Factors That Affect Menopause Timing - Zora Benhamou

Can you delay menopause? Yes, in some ways we can. Let's cover what the science says about the Age at Natural Menopause, or ANM. This matters—a lot—because early menopause has been linked to higher risks of cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis, and even increased all-cause mortality. Delayed menopause is associated with a longer reproductive span and lower risk of diseases of aging. So, what determines when you hit menopause? We cover: Modifiable factors of menopause age What can we control and what we can't Research on the Age of Natural Menopause How alcohol intake suprisingly affects your menopause birthdate What is more potent?

Mammogram Debate: Addressing Fears From A Radiologist & True Breast Cancer Risks - Dr. Robyn Roth

Are you about to get a mammogram and now worried about the conflicting information? Then tune into this episode with radiologist Dr. Robyn Roth who gives us her side of the story on mammograms and alternatives to breast screening. You'll either love this episode or hate it, but I like to present both sides of the story. Over the last year I have had numerous guests who warned us of the dangers of mammograms. I had several of you reach out to me wanting me to share the other perspectives out there. So I gathered all the arguments that our guests have talked about in other episodes and presented them at Dr. Robyn to hear her rebuttal. We covered: The fears around mammograms Do mammograms really save lives? Are we over diagnosing and overtreating women? What is the damage that is done on a woman given a false diagnosis? What percentage of DCIS goes on to become an aggressive cancer from her experience? If mammograms don't pick up calcifications on dense breasts, why are we even doing them? What the man who invented mammograms says is the gold standard of breast screening Alternatives to mammograms and how reliable are they? If mammography is not recommended to pregnant women because of the risk of radiation on the fetus, then why are we all getting mammograms? Is a woman really a survivor if she dies at 6 years past her diagnosis instead of the time bias of 5? Dr. Robyn Roth is an Ivy-league trained board-certified radiologist specializing in Breast and Abdominal Imaging, with over 15 years of clinical experience. She is better known as @TheBoobieDocs, her popular social media platform where she discusses breast cancer and breast health in an educational and fun way. She is a breast cancer specialist who educates, advocates and empowers about the importance of early breast cancer detection and understanding your risk factors. Dr. Roth hosts a podcast, "The Girlfriend's Guide to Breast Cancer, Breast Health, & Beyond" to help those navigating a breast cancer diagnosis.
