What if the key to unlocking better brain health wasn’t just diet and exercise, but balancing your hormones? In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Sharon Stills, an expert in hormone health, to dive into how bioidentical hormones can improve brain function, reverse brain fog, and lower the risk of Alzheimer’s.

Dr. Stills explains how hormone imbalances are a major contributor to cognitive decline, especially as we age. We explore bioidentical hormones vs. synthetic hormones, the role of estrogen and progesterone, and how hormone replacement therapy (HRT) can restore mental clarity and support long-term brain health. Dr. Stills also shares a controversial insight about cholesterol.

Discover how balancing your hormones can be the missing piece in protecting your brain and aging gracefully!

“Health truly is this multifactorial event, and it's really important that we do all the things to stay healthy. I truly believe that our bodies are meant to live to 120.”

~ Dr. Sharon Stills, NMD
