EP. 193: Thinking about hiring a functional medicine doctor? Before you book that first appointment, you need to be prepared. Functional medicine is a whole different game—it’s an investment of time, energy, and money. If you go in expecting a quick fix, you’re setting yourself up for disappointment. Functional medicine doctors don’t have a magic wand to undergo a terrible lifestyle. That work is on you. This episode is your functional medicine prep kit—everything you need to know and do before you commit to the process. Because any functional medicine doctor worth their salt does NOT take insurance, and the costs go way beyond the consult. Labs, supplements, and treatments like peptides can add up fast, so you need to know what you're signing up for and you need to come in as prepared as possible. More importantly, you need to take ownership of your health. No doctor—functional or otherwise—can do the work for you. If you’re not ready to lift weights, fix your metabolic health, and make real lifestyle changes, functional medicine won’t save you. Topics Covered: → Functional vs. allopathic medicine models   → The problem with the “pill for every ill” mindset, even if it’s natural   → Metabolic compromise, insulin resistance & mold exposure   → Why weightlifting is non-negotiable for health   → The impact of diet, nutrition, and lifestyle   → Sunshine, stress management, and recovery tools like red light therapy & sauna   Sponsored By: → Timeline | Timeline is offering 10% off your order of Mitopure ⁠Go to timeline.com/drtyna.⁠ → Qualia | Go to ⁠qualialife.com/DRTYNA⁠ and use code DRTYNA at checkout for up to 15% off your purchase. → Momentous | Go to ⁠livemomentous.com⁠ and use code DRTYNA to get 15% off all my favorite products → Birch | Go to ⁠Birchliving.com/drtyna⁠ for 27% Off Sitewide + 2 Free Eco-Rest Pillows with Mattress Purchase. → Purity Woods | Go to ⁠puritywoods.com/DRTYNA⁠ or enter DRTYNA at checkout for 27% off → LMNT | Get your free Sample Pack with any LMNT purchase at ⁠drinkLMNT.com/drtyna On This Episode We Cover:  → 00:00:00 - Introduction  → 00:00:47 - Functional vs allopathic medicine  → 00:07:06 - “A pill for every ill” → 00:08:30 - Metabolic compromise & insulin resistance  → 00:11:18 - Mold exposure & building resilience   → 00:12:34 - Price of functional doctors  → 00:16:02 - You NEED to weight lift  → 00:18:36 - Diet, nutrition, and lifestyle  → 00:27:10 - The importance of sunshine  → 00:29:11 - Dangers of high stress  → 00:32:59 - Red light therapy & sauna  Further Listening:  → 10 Reasons I Love My Sauna → Metabolic Health Playlist  → Strength Training Playlist  Courses:  → Dr Tyna’s Strength Corner Red Light Options: → LumeBox: Use code DRTYNA → Biolight Shine: Use code DRTYNA  Sauna Options:  → Sauna Blanket: Use code DRTYNA → Pop-Up Sauna: Use code DRTYNA  → SaunaSpace Tent: Use code DRTYNA → Sunlighten: Tell them Dr Tyna sent you Disclaimer: Information provided in this podcast is for informational purposes only.

EP. 192: On this episode, I’m sitting down with my friend Cynthia Thurlow—a nurse practitioner, intermittent fasting expert, and leading voice in perimenopause and menopause. We set out to talk about intermittent fasting—and we absolutely did—but our conversation went so much deeper. We covered bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT), perimenopause, menopause, and the key strategies women need to thrive in midlife. If you’re navigating hormonal shifts, metabolic changes, or just want to optimize your health as you age, this episode is packed with practical, no-nonsense insights. Cynthia and I are completely aligned in our mission to support women through these transitions—without the fluff, confusion, or outdated advice. In this episode, we cover: → How Cynthia transitioned from cardiology to intermittent fasting → The serious risks of a broken hip as we age (and how to prevent them) → Why giving your gut a break is crucial for longevity → The impact of chronic stress on your metabolism and hormones → Vaginal health and why vaginal estrogen is a game-changer → Chronic health issues in older women and the different types of HRT → How to find the right doctor for hormone therapy and longevity medicine → What it really means to age gracefully (hint: it’s not about “anti-aging”) → How fasting strategies should evolve in perimenopause and beyond → The importance of metabolic flexibility and adapting nutrition over time This is a must-listen for any woman who wants to take control of her health, feel strong, and make middle age look easy.
