In this episode, I dive deep into the science of aging and reveal a game-changing secret I've been using for nearly two years to combat one of the biggest culprits of aging: senescent cells. These "zombie cells" accumulate as we get older, crowding out healthy cells and contributing to that sluggish, achy feeling we often associate with getting older. But here's the kicker – it doesn't have to be that way! I share my personal journey of discovery, from the moment I realized I was losing my grip strength (literally!) to finding a breakthrough solution that addresses aging at the cellular level. We explore the fascinating world of senolytics—compounds that help our bodies eliminate these pesky senescent cells – and how they can be a powerful addition to any woman's anti-aging toolkit. Get ready to rethink what's possible as you age and learn how to maintain your physical prime well into your 60s, 70s, and beyond!
What you'll learn:
• The surprising link between grip strength and overall mortality
• How muscle loss accelerates with age and what it means for your health
• The role of senescent cells in the aging process and why they're called "zombie cells"
• Key compounds that can help eliminate senescent cells and support healthy aging
• How to complement traditional anti-aging strategies with cutting-edge cellular support
• The importance of protein, strength training, and quality sleep in powerful aging
• Why it's never too late to start your journey towards aging powerfully

"Focusing on cholesterol is a waste of time in preventing heart disease. The real issue is insulin resistance." – Dr. Aseem Malhotra
In this eye-opening episode, I sit down with Dr. Aseem Malhotra, a cardiologist whose bold research is shaking up conventional wisdom on heart health. Dr. Malhotra reveals that much of what we’ve been told about preventing heart disease—especially the focus on lowering cholesterol—is not only outdated but dangerously misleading. For women in their 40s and beyond, this conversation is a game-changer. Dr. Malhotra’s research shows that insulin resistance, often driven by our modern lifestyle, is the true culprit behind heart disease, not cholesterol levels. His fresh, evidence-based perspective challenges everything from low-fat diets to the overprescription of statins.
What makes Dr. Malhotra’s story so compelling is his fearless approach to medicine. He’s faced criticism from the medical establishment for daring to question the status quo, but his commitment to the truth—and helping patients find real solutions—keeps him going. He shares actionable strategies that every woman can implement right now, from dietary changes like cutting out refined carbohydrates to incorporating stress-reducing practices such as meditation. His advice is simple yet powerful: focus on lifestyle changes that address insulin resistance, and you can not only prevent but potentially reverse heart disease.
Dr. Malhotra’s journey isn’t just about uncovering the science—it’s about empowering women to take control of their health. He emphasizes the importance of looking at heart health holistically, reminding us that the way we manage stress, what we eat, and how much we move can have profound impacts on our well-being. For women entering midlife, this approach is especially critical as hormonal changes and other age-related factors can increase heart disease risk.
If you’ve ever felt confused or misled about what really matters when it comes to your heart health, this episode is a must-listen. Dr. Malhotra’s insights will leave you questioning everything you thought you knew and give you the tools to make better choices for your body.
Don’t miss this transformative discussion. Tune in now to learn how you can protect your heart and live a healthier, fuller life beyond 40!

"The moment I realized food could be the answer to autoimmune diseases, obesity, and even mental health issues, I knew I had to shift my focus from surgery to nutrition." — Dr. Shawn Baker
In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Shawn Baker, an orthopedic surgeon turned advocate for the carnivore diet. Dr. Baker’s journey is a powerful example of how radically changing your approach to food can transform your health, especially for women in midlife. He’s spent years seeing patients improve conditions like autoimmune diseases, inflammation, and even mental health through what he calls “the ultimate elimination diet.” His no-nonsense approach to health challenges the traditional narratives we’ve been told about food, and he brings data and clinical experience to back it up.
Dr. Baker shares how the carnivore diet helped him help others avoid surgeries and regain control over chronic health issues. For women in their 40s and beyond, many of whom have been conditioned to think they need to "eat less and move more," this conversation is a wake-up call. He explains why bloating, discomfort, and cravings aren’t just "part of life"—they’re signals that something is off, often rooted in what we eat. Women, especially, are taught to fear fat, but Dr. Baker debunks those myths, showing how a high-protein, animal-based diet can actually help you feel fuller, reduce cravings, and tackle stubborn issues like joint pain and weight gain.
If you've ever felt frustrated with diet trends, this episode will make you rethink everything you thought you knew about nutrition. Dr. Baker offers practical advice on transitioning to a carnivore or low-carb diet and provides insight into how food interacts with our immune systems, gut health, and even our mental well-being.
Tune in for a candid and transformative conversation with Dr. Shawn Baker that might just change your relationship with food and health for good!
What you’ll learn in this episode:
Why the carnivore diet might be the ultimate elimination diet for healing
How meat consumption affects joint health and arthritis (you'll be surprised!)
The truth about fiber and gut health on a meat-based diet
Practical tips for transitioning to and maintaining a carnivore lifestyle

"Mitochondria are the powerhouses of our cells, and if we don’t keep them in check, we risk losing the energy, strength, and vitality that allow us to age powerfully." - Dr. Anurag Singh
In this energizing episode of the Well Beyond 40 podcast, I sit down with Dr. Anurag Singh, a pioneering expert in mitochondrial health, to dive deep into the science that can help us all age with power. As the Chief Medical Officer at Timeline, Dr. Singh has spearheaded over 50 clinical trials, focusing on groundbreaking ways to keep our cellular engines—the mitochondria—running optimally well beyond our 40s.
We explore the fascinating compound Urolithin A, which I call “exercise in a bottle.” Urolithin A is derived from foods like pomegranates and walnuts, and plays a critical role in maintaining muscle health, boosting energy levels, and even improving skin quality as we age. Dr. Singh sheds light on the alarming statistics of muscle loss starting in our 30s and how it accelerates into our 60s and 70s. He offers actionable strategies that go beyond just increasing protein intake and resistance training, emphasizing the importance of using every tool available, including Urolithin A, to combat the decline.
For those navigating the world of GLP-1 agonists for weight loss, Dr. Singh provides essential insights into how these medications impact muscle mass and mitochondria. His advice is clear: while these drugs can be effective, they must be coupled with proper nutrition, exercise, and mitochondrial support to prevent long-term muscle loss and metabolic issues.
Tune in to discover how you can harness the power of your mitochondria to not only live longer but to live stronger, with more energy and resilience, well into your later years. Don't miss this chance to learn how to integrate cutting-edge science into your daily routine for a healthier, more vibrant you!
