Episode Details

What GLP-1 drugs don't tell you, why muscle is your longevity organ, and the surprising gut-estrogen connection.

In Part 2 of my conversation with integrative oncology expert Dr. Nasha Winters, we dive into one of today's hottest topics: GLP-1 medications like Ozempic and Mounjaro. We unpack why losing weight doesn't always mean becoming healthier, why muscle is truly your longevity organ, and how body composition—not just the number on the scale—can dramatically impact your future health.

We also finally answer the question we left hanging in Part 1: what is the estrobolome, and why does your gut bacteria have this much control over your estrogen? Dr. Nasha breaks down how to build your body's own natural GLP-1 production, what your continuous glucose monitor can teach you that has nothing to do with food, and one seriously blunt truth about hormones and your love life that might change how you think about your next doctor's visit.

This conversation is science-backed, practical, and empowering, reminding us that there are no quick fixes when it comes to longevity—just small, consistent choices that build a healthier future…plus we give the steps to get there.
