Low libido... brain fog... and decreased muscle mass — many women face these issues without realizing they could be linked to hormone imbalances, particularly low testosterone levels.
As you navigate through perimenopause or menopause, the overlapping symptoms can be confusing and frustrating, making it difficult to pinpoint the root cause and find effective solutions.
In this episode, Dr. Amie Hornaman and I dive deep into the often-overlooked aspects of hormone management, with a special focus on testosterone's pivotal role in women's health. From understanding the complex interactions between testosterone and thyroid levels to exploring the best methods for hormone testing, you'll receive a comprehensive guide to optimizing your hormone balance.

| 0:38.0 | Let's talk about ketones. |
| 0:39.7 | If you're out of gas mid-workout, pre-workout, early on in the workout, fix your fuel in a double-blind placebo-controlled study on trained athletes. |
| 0:47.6 | This product, ketone IQ, drinkable ketones, gave a 19 plus percent increase in average power during repeated sprints, 13 plus percent increase in peak power versus a placebo, 10 percent less fatigue, and a five times increase in blood ketones. That's huge. You have to fast for days to get that. They got it within 20 minutes. The way ketones work is they improve mitochondrial efficiency. They give more energy, poor molecule of oxygen. |
| 1:12.5 | So you burn cleaner, you recover fast, you train harder. |
| 1:16.0 | It's also a natural EPO boost, meaning erythropoetin, which is something that can allow for better oxygen delivery, is something that's increased via ketone IQ because it activates something called HIF-1 Alpha Pathways. |
| 1:28.5 | That stimulates your body's own natural e-pro production, no illegal performance enhancing drugs required. |
