Most people think heart disease is just about cholesterol. But what if the real issue is in your genes, your environment, and even your daily stress?

In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Christopher Davis, a triple board-certified interventional cardiologist who’s redefining what it means to take care of your heart. After years of performing stent procedures, he realized the conventional system was only treating symptoms, not causes. So he made a bold shift from reactive cardiology to a root-cause approach that blends advanced testing, functional medicine, detoxification, and even ancient healing wisdom. We discuss how genetics determine whether saturated fats help or harm you, why cholesterol itself isn’t the enemy, and how inflammation and oxidative stress are the real threats to your arteries. 

If you’ve ever wondered why someone with perfect cholesterol can still have a heart attack, or why your stress levels matter just as much as your diet, this conversation will change how you think about cardiovascular health forever.

Dr. Brad Schoenfeld, PhD is one of the world’s leading researchers on muscle hypertrophy (muscle growth). He is a Professor of Exercise Science at Lehman College in New York, where he directs the Human Performance Laboratory. Over his career, he has published more than 300 peer-reviewed articles, book chapters, and textbooks on resistance training, body composition, and nutrition.

He is the author of Science and Development of Muscle Hypertrophy and The Max Muscle Plan, and has received prestigious honors such as the NSCA Young Investigator of the Year and the Dwight D. Eisenhower Fitness Award. Beyond academia, he has been a personal trainer and natural bodybuilding competitor, which allows him to uniquely bridge cutting-edge science with practical application.

Here's what he knows: the fitness industry has been selling you the wrong story. Not maliciously, but confidently. And most people are paying the price without even realizing it.

In this episode, Brad reveals why so many people are working harder than they need to while missing the basics that matter most. We discuss the beliefs keeping women from reaching their potential, the risks that sneak up when you avoid certain types of training, and what actually determines whether you stay strong and independent decades from now. He also tackles the myths around supplements, workout structure, and whether you're doing enough or too much.

If you're ready to stop spinning your wheels and start training smarter, this conversation will show you exactly where to begin.

Today I’m joined by Dr. Lara Briden, a naturopathic doctor, best-selling author, and internationally recognized expert in women’s hormones for a wide-ranging conversation on cycle health and why ovulation is a vital sign of wellbeing.

We talked about how monthly ovulation creates hormones that support bones, metabolism, and brain function, and what happens when that rhythm is disrupted by stress, restrictive eating, or birth control. Dr. Briden explains why natural estradiol and progesterone are so protective, how they differ from synthetic hormones, and what that means for both younger women and women approaching perimenopause.

She also shares her perspective on missing periods, hypothalamic amenorrhea, and the four functional types of PCOS, along with the growing role of insulin resistance in hormone imbalance. We talk about how to track ovulation, what lab markers to look for, and why restoring cycles is one of the most powerful steps for long-term health.

What if aging wasn’t just something that happens to us, but something science could actually slow down? That’s the question at the heart of today’s conversation with Dr. Matt Kaeberlein, who’s a leading scientist and longevity researcher at the University of Washington.

Dr. Kaeberlein has spent decades decoding the biology of aging, from cellular mechanisms to practical strategies that could extend not just how long we live, but how well we live.

In this conversation, I sit down with Nick to unpack the deeper science behind GLP-1s and metabolic health. We explore how compounds like Tirzepatide and GLP-1 agonists go beyond weight loss, influencing everything from cardiovascular elasticity and neuroinflammation to mood, cognition, and gut-brain signaling. We also discuss lesser-known drivers of real change, like adiponectin, MPO, and the surprising effects of statins on inflammation.But the conversation doesn’t stop with human health. We dive into the behavioral power of the microbiome, how dogs might reduce childhood allergies, and whether AI can actually translate what your pet is thinking. If you’re curious about fat loss, brain health, and the future of metabolic science, this episode offers a perspective you won’t find anywhere else.*Chapters:*0:00 – Meet Dr. Nick: From Patient to Pioneer06:50 – The Problem with "Evidence-Based Medicine"10:15 – Why Nick Left the Medical System13:10 – Can YouTube Have a Bigger Impact Than Hospitals?16:30 – What Is Metabolic Health & Why Does It Matter?19:00 – Mental Health, Depression & Metabolism24:15 – Brain Hacks That Actually Work40:00 – Improving Metabolic Flexibility Naturally46:00 – Gut-Brain Connection & Fiber Myths*Nick's Socials + Website*IG: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nicknorwitz/Youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLTZUJSEulehPtF_ytFiU_AWebsite: https://www.nicknorwitz.com*Kayla's Socials + Website*Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kaylabarnes/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@femalelongevityTwitter: https://x.com/femalelongevityWebsite: https://www.kaylabarnes.comFollow Her Female Protocol: https://www.protocol.kaylabarnes.comBecome a Member of Kayla's Female Longevity Membership: https://kayla-barnes-lentz.circle.so/checkout/become-a-member

This episode is brought to you by OneSkin, the longevity scientists behind the first topical peptide scientifically proven to reverse skin aging—now bringing their expertise to your scalp.

If you care about aging well, you can’t ignore your hair. The health of your scalp directly impacts the strength, thickness, and lifespan of every strand.

That’s why OneSkin created their new OS-01 HAIR, the first scalp serum powered by a longevity peptide designed to optimize follicle health, balance the scalp, and extend the healthspan of your hair follicles.

In their clinical study, OS-01 HAIR showed significant improvements in hair density, thickness, and overall scalp health—all by targeting follicle aging at the root.

I’ve been using it myself and I’m genuinely impressed. It’s lightweight, fragrance-free, and backed by science—not fluff.

If you're serious about keeping your hair vibrant and resilient as you age, I highly recommend giving OneSkin's OS-01 HAIR a try.
