    70. Mila Magnani: PCOS Journey and Balancing Your Hormones With Supplements

    In this episode, Sam sits down with Mila Magnani, founder of Milamend and PCOS advocate, to learn about the struggle women with hormone imbalances face—largely unsupported by traditional medicine. After years of knowing something was wrong (read: puberty at age 11, hair growth along jawline, hair shedding on scalp, severe cramps, unexplained 30 lb. weight gain, and more), Mila was sick of being told by her doctors that everything was normal. Over and over, they told her to try birth control, Spironolactone, IUDs...one (woman!) doctor even told her to "eat less, move more." So she took matters into her own hands, discovering and refining a supplement stack that healed her symptoms and gave her her life back, and later turning it into a blend that women facing the same challenges could buy in one shot, instead of struggling and searching for years like she did. Listen to this episode if you have PCOS or any other kind of hormonal imbalance. Key moments: 00:05:35 Mila’s PCOS story 00:06:42 Hitting puberty at age 11 and birth control at 13 00:09:09 Realizing her cycle was never “normal” 00:10:47 Going to the doctor for the first time 00:13:17 The invisible pressure of sharing your symptoms with male doctors 00:17:26 Starting Spironolactone 00:18:12 Being labeled “the sick kid” at school 00:18:52 Getting a POTS diagnosis 00:20:52 Spironolactone and POTS 00:23:19 Having cravings and getting extremely hungry, even right after eating 00:25:00 Getting an IUD to purposely eliminate her cycle 00:27:46 Complications from the IUD 00:29:53 The day that everything changed 00:31:46 The problem with the “money doesn’t buy happiness” mentality 00:33:29 The dangers of “pushing through” when things are bad 00:34:48 Developing thyroid problems (hypothyroidism) due to physical, mental, and emotional stress 00:35:05 Gaining 30 pounds in 2 months 00:36:13 Going back to traditional medicine…and getting prescribed antidepressants 00:37:46 Why the difference between “normal” and “optimal” bloodwork results is actually VERY important 00:39:33 Different types of PCOS 00:39:56 Running out of money for American healthcare 00:40:13 Turning to functional medicine, chiropractors, health influencers, etc. 00:41:19 A huge red flag for chiropractors and functional medicine 00:42:37 Taking her health into her own hands 00:43:43 Nutraceuticals 00:45:52 FINALLY getting a PCOS diagnosis 00:52:42 Standing up for yourself in the doctor’s office (or bringing an advocate!) 00:54:33 Why hormone testing is so complicated and difficult 00:56:47 Feeling defeated by PCOS treatment options 00:59:21 The supplement stack she used to treat her PCOS 01:00:42 What is inositol? 01:08:02 Healing fully in 6 months by using the right supplements 01:09:33 Why she doesn’t regret using birth control, spironolactone, etc. 01:10:15 How to know which supplement brands can be trusted 1:15:17 Non-negotiable lifestyle changes that help with PCOS Try Milamend: https://www.milamend.com/products/hormone-balance Join ⁠⁠WHOOP⁠⁠.

    63. Does Autophagy Actually Prevent Cancer and Slow Aging?

    In this episode, Sam is inspired by her family's interest in fasting for autophagic response to do some research.

Are there limitations or variables? And how does it affect your pace of aging? All questions this episode will address.
