    This channel is focused on Bones, Hormones, and Healthspan to help midlife women and beyond aim for optimal, not average, and reignite their spark!
    The videos on this channel will be focused around helping women navigate healthspan and longevity through the lens of osteoporosis, perimenopause, and menopause. When it comes to osteoporosis and menopause providers and educators often get tunnel vision and your symptoms might get better, but if you don't keep longevity in mind, symptom improvement may come at the expense of heart and brain health.

    After listening to this, Dr. Avrum Bluming of 'Estrogen Matters' and some of your other videos, I am beginning to get a clearer picture of the pros/cons of using HRT 10+ years past menopause. If only all doctors, paraphrasing Dr. Twyman, 'saw the patient in front of them'. I guess the only thing I was left wondering after watching is, what are your benchmarks for starting a women on HRT 10+years who is experiencing the bone, heart, brain problems of reduced estrogen; must they have perfect CAC, Carotid, CCTA scores? Were does the risk out way the benefit for this population? Thanks, terrific video!

      Focus on what you can control. Keep nitric oxide optimal. Support the glycocalyx. Keep oxidative stress and inflammation low. Lower Apo B particles if above 70 using combo of lifestyle, supplements, and medications. This is the starting point. Advanced labs can tell you what other items to focus on

    This was one of the best explanations ever of the sclerosis of artery and the prevention. Thank you so much. My doctor wanted me to take cholesterol lowering medication 20 years ago...When you are young it is very hard to sell the idea that is for prevention. Unfortunately, doctors either don't have time to explain it or don't know how to sell it to the patients. I have been on PSK9 for 5 years now. Nothing else worked for me.

    Thank you for this great interview with Dr. Twyman.

Maybe that can be a topic to discuss with him in another interview.

      @@Dr_DougLucas Great! I had to recently start seeing a cardiologist. He told me to take absolutely no calcium supplements of any kind even though I told him I had osteoporosis. I told him I take K2 also to assist with calcium transport to the bones. He said he only endorses taking vitamin D; he does not feel that any other supplements help and that calcium supplemenation is linked to a high risk of heart attacks and strokes.
