Lewis Howes: 本期节目探讨了医疗系统长期以来对女性健康问题的忽视,以及女性如何重新掌控自身健康。 Dr. Mary Claire Haver: 我在医学研究中发现,女性长期以来被排除在医学研究之外,导致女性疾病的治疗方案往往基于男性研究数据,这导致了对女性疾病的误诊和不当治疗。例如,他汀类药物虽然在降低男性胆固醇方面有效,但在降低女性患心脏病风险方面缺乏证据,但我们仍然广泛地将其用于女性。更年期方面,医学教育严重不足,大多数医生没有接受过更年期相关培训,无法为女性提供合适的治疗方案。只有4%-6%的更年期女性接受了激素替代疗法,而大多数女性却接受了抗抑郁药治疗,这忽略了激素替代疗法在降低心血管疾病风险方面的作用。我们需要改变这种现状,推动医学研究关注女性健康,并加强医生的培训。 Dr. Rhonda Patrick: 我的研究表明,衰老可能是一个可编程的过程,而不是累积损伤的结果。表观遗传学中的甲基化模式可能控制着衰老过程,通过重置表观基因组,可以逆转细胞衰老。目前的研究正在探索延缓更年期的可能性,这可能延长女性的寿命和健康寿命。 Dr. Caroline Leaf: 长期以来,人们将精神健康问题视为疾病,这是一种错误的观念。精神健康问题并非疾病,而是人们在应对生活压力和创伤时产生的正常反应。我们需要改变这种观念,并提供更有效的治疗方法,例如神经循环法,它可以帮助人们更好地管理焦虑和抑郁情绪。

The medical system has systematically failed women for decades, creating unique health challenges that impact everything from heart disease to mental wellness. In this eye-opening conversation, I bring together three brilliant female doctors who are revolutionizing women's health from different angles. Dr. Mary Claire Haver exposes how women were excluded from medical studies until 1993, sharing her personal menopause journey alongside scientific insights. Dr. Rhonda Patrick challenges conventional aging theories with her groundbreaking research suggesting aging might be a reprogrammable process controlled by our epigenetics. Meanwhile, Dr. Caroline Leaf transforms our understanding of mental health with her powerful neurocycle method that produced an 81% improvement in anxiety and depression symptoms. This episode delivers essential wisdom for anyone looking to understand women's unique health journeys and provides actionable strategies for optimizing physical and mental wellbeing at any age.

In this episode you will learn:

  • Why treatments for women are often based on studies of men, and how this leads to inappropriate care for conditions like high cholesterol and heart disease 
  • The surprising truth about hormone replacement therapy and why only 4-6% of menopausal women receive it despite its benefits 
  • How men can effectively support partners going through menopause by educating themselves and attending doctor appointments 
  • A revolutionary insight that aging may be a programmable process controlled by epigenetics rather than accumulated damage
  • The three supplements to prioritize if limited to only a few
  • The powerful five-step "neurocycle" process that can reduce anxiety and depression symptoms by up to 81%
  • Why labeling mental health challenges as "diseases" can be harmful and how to reframe your experience
  • How to break the cycle of fight-or-flight responses during acute stress using mindful awareness techniques
