Manage episode 492692914 series 2437481
I am thrilled to connect with Zora Benhamou today. She is a gerontologist and biohacker, dedicated to challenging stigmatized views of menopause and ageist stereotypes. She is also the host of the Hack My Age podcast, which focuses on empowering women navigating the menopause transition through biohacking techniques.
In our discussion, we cover various factors that influence menopausal timing and question whether it is possible to reverse menopause. We dive into midlife biohacks, such as blood-flow restriction bands, that deliver real results, and explore health optimization, how people become super agers, and the benefits of peptides, exosomes, and HRT. We also examine the issue of loneliness and clarify why mindset is crucial for aging with resilience.
This conversation is full of insights and takeaways, so you will likely return to it more than once.
