540: Stop Taking Fish Oil: What Your Cells Actually Need Instead with Jessica Kane Berman

If we are doing all the things in midlife and we still feel off. The brain fog. The bloating. The dull skin. The hormones that feel louder, not quieter. The recovery that takes three days from one glass of wine. This episode is for us.

Because everyone keeps telling us the next step is hormones. HRT. Bioidenticals. Patches. Pellets. And those can absolutely help. But there are three quiet things slowing down in our bodies at the same time, and nobody is teaching us about them in plain English.

The walls of our cells. Where hormones are supposed to knock and get a response.

The body's trash truck. The thing that carries used hormones out of the body so they do not pile back up.

The wallpaper lining our gut. The thing that keeps inflammation from running the whole show.

All three slow down in midlife. That is why more hormones alone has not been the full answer for so many of us. My guest is Jessica Kane Berman, co-owner of BodyBio, a third-generation cellular health company her grandfather founded almost 30 years ago. Jessica walked through PCOS, fertility issues, mold, and Lyme, and she healed using the science her own family pioneered. We go through all three slowdowns in plain English, and we end with one thing we can do this week.

This is the foundation underneath everything we are already doing.

WE GO DEEP ON:

• Why more hormones alone has not been the full answer in midlife

• The three quiet things slowing down in our bodies at the same time

• The walls of our cells, and why brain fog and dull skin are clues

• The body's trash truck (bile), and why estrogen feels louder when it slows

• The wallpaper lining our gut, and why food sensitivities and belly inflammation show up after 40

• Where HRT fits in (and why these three make HRT actually work)

• What PC, TUDCA, and butyrate really do, in plain English

• One simple thing to do this week if we are overwhelmed by where to start
