| 0:00.0 | We are going to move from a world where 5% of women are getting hormone replacement therapy |
| 0:04.6 | to a place where it's proactively given to 95% of women for prevention of osteoporosis, dementia, |
| 0:10.8 | cancer. |
| 0:11.8 | Dr. Robin Berzin, Columbia-educated Mount Sinai trained physician and founder of Parsley Health, |
| 0:18.0 | named one of Inc's 100 most innovative women in business. |
| 0:21.9 | From GLP-1s to psychedelic therapy, from CGMs to hormone replacement, today we ask, |
| 0:27.7 | is this treatment right for you? |
| 0:30.8 | There's a big study recently that looked at medical records of 120 million women that showed |
| 0:35.8 | that women who started hormone replacement therapy, |
| 0:38.7 | estrogen progesterone therapy within perimenopause, have up to 60% lower rates of breast |

| 1:34.0 | So CGMs and full body scans and GLP1s and HRT and testosterone replacement and, oh God, peptides and stem cells. And, I mean, |
| 1:49.3 | it basically just like goes on and on. And it's difficult to navigate through that fog |
| 1:57.7 | and balance between what's sort of trending and in the zeitgeist versus what is |
| 2:05.3 | bio-individual, what is right for me. And specifically with a female lens too, because as we get |
