    "After my car accident, I discovered that trauma wasn't the only cause of leaky brain - chronic stress, poor sleep, and inflammation can all compromise our brain's protective barrier. The good news? Just like leaky gut, leaky brain can be healed." - Dr. Titus Chiu In this eye-opening episode, I sit down with functional neurologist Dr. Titus Chiu to explore the fascinating concept of "leaky brain" and its profound impact on cognitive health, especially for women in midlife.  Dr. Chiu's personal journey from a devastating accident to becoming a leading expert in brain health offers hope and practical solutions for anyone experiencing brain fog, memory issues, or cognitive decline.

What you'll learn: The surprising connection between leaky gut and leaky brain, and why women in perimenopause may be particularly vulnerable How to recognize the warning signs of a compromised blood-brain barrier, from brain fog to unexplained cognitive fluctuations The 5 essential pillars of brain health, including specific foods that nourish your neurons Why social connections and regular movement (especially dancing!) are crucial for preventing cognitive decline Game-changing supplements that support brain health, including the unexpected benefits of creatine!

    2-min "Exercise Snacks" to Improve Blood Glucose, Metabolism & Longevity with JJ Virgin

    Today we’ll dive into the game-changing concept of exercise snacks - short bursts of movement that can transform your health even when you're super busy. I'm busting the "I don't have time" excuse wide open by showing you how just 1-2 minutes of movement, three times a day, can dramatically improve your insulin sensitivity, fat burning, heart health, and mood. You'll discover why these micro-workouts are actually more effective for busy women than traditional long gym sessions, and I'll share simple, equipment-free exercises you can do right at your desk or in your kitchen. Plus, I'm revealing the science behind why these quick movement breaks could be your secret weapon against age-related health issues.

    Beyond Hot Flashes: The Hidden Impact of Menopause with Karen Martel

    "I really thought I was going to sail through menopause... until I didn't have it all figured out. I started going into early menopause at 42, and that's when everything changed." - Karen Martel Today, I sit down with hormone expert Karen Martel, to dive deep into the truth about perimenopause, menopause, weight gain, and hormone replacement therapy.  As a nutritionist who experienced early menopause herself, Karen shares invaluable insights about why the conventional "calories in, calories out" approach fails so many women in midlife. Together, we explore why even health-conscious women who "do everything right" can still struggle with unexplained weight gain, mood changes, and other perimenopausal symptoms. Karen reveals game-changing information about estrogen's crucial role in metabolic health and why starting hormone replacement at the right time can make all the difference in your journey through menopause. If you're tired of being told it's "all in your head" or that you need to “eat less and exercise more”, this episode will validate you and arm you with the knowledge you need to take control of your hormonal health. What you'll learn: Why conventional advice about menopause and metabolism is often wrong, especially for women over 40 The surprising connection between estrogen levels and insulin resistance in midlife  How to recognize early signs of perimenopause that most doctors miss Why the timing of starting hormone replacement therapy matters more than most realize The truth about progesterone dosing and why "more" isn't always better How modern environmental factors trigger earlier onset of perimenopausal symptoms The role of new medications, like GLP-1s, to support metabolic health in menopause Game-changing insights about topical estrogen for skin health and aging   FULL show notes: https://www.jjvirgin.com/hormonecream  Learn more about Karen Martel: https://karenmartel.com/   Karen’s over the counter line of bioidentical hormone creams.

    The WORST Diet Mistakes Beginners Always Make (Avoid This!) with JJ Virgin

    In this eye-opening episode, I dive deep into the most common diet mistakes that derail progress, including the shocking truth about calorie tracking (even nutritionists get this wrong!), why protein timing is crucial for maintaining muscle mass during weight loss, and the real reason cardio might be working against your goals.  I also share specific strategies for tracking, essential tools for accurate measurement, and explain why focusing on body composition rather than just the number on the scale is key for lasting results. What you'll learn: Why tracking your food intake incorrectly (or not at all) could be sabotaging your progress The optimal protein intake for maintaining muscle mass while losing fat How excessive calorie restriction impacts your metabolism and muscle retention Why resistance training trumps cardio for sustainable body transformation The truth about bio-impedance scales and tracking meaningful progress Essential tools and apps for successful weight management FULL show notes: https://www.jjvirgin.com/worstmistakes Free Cronometer tracking app: jjvirgin.com/cronometer 7-Day Eat Protein First Challenge: http://jjvirgin.com/proteinfirst Use my Eat Protein First Calculator: http://jjvirgin.com/proteinfirst Food Scale: https://amzn.to/3IBttvS Download my free Resistance Training Cheat Sheet: https://jjvirgin.com/resistance Oxiline bioimpedance scale: https://oxiline.shop/product/scale-x-pro/?ref=mza2ntv   Episode Sponsors:  Try Timeline: https://www.timelinenutrition.com/shop?rfsn=7082975.4b75243 Use code JJ10 for 10% off all products Go to qualialife.com/VIRGINWELLNESS to try Qualia risk free for up to 100 days and code VIRGINWELLNESS for an additional 15% off

    "The minute I put a little pressure on you in your life, you freak out. So what I want to do is figure out how to get this pressure and try to get calmer." - Gabby Reece In this powerful episode, I sat down with volleyball legend and wellness pioneer Gabby Reece to unpack her evolution from professional athlete to wellness entrepreneur.
