Men Vs Women: Hormones, Health, and Biological Longevity

Episode 64 Published 3 months ago
Description
In today's episode we're dissecting the biological disparities that give women a 5 to 10 year longevity advantage over men. We explore the buffering effects of estrogen, which is cardioprotective and neuroprotective, delaying heart disease and neurodegeneration.

We also discuss how male androgens might accelerate aging and increase the risk of cardiovascular disease. Learn why men are statistically more vulnerable to metabolic syndrome and why optimizing fitness and body fat percentage is essential for reaching maximum lifespan.
