This episode is brought to you by InsideTracker and Athletic Greens.\nHormones are like a symphony, with each one acting as a specialized instrument to keep our bodies in tune. But as we age, those instruments start to get a little rusty. Small changes over time create a variety of imbalances, until one day we wake up realizing we\u2019re flat and out of tune. This leads to things like menopausal symptoms in women, hair loss and belly fat in men, thyroid dysfunction, bone loss, and so much more.\xa0\nThat\u2019s why it\u2019s never too early, or too late, to start optimizing hormonal balance. Today we\u2019re featuring an episode of the Longevity Roadmap docu-series that takes a deep dive into hormones and how they play a critical role in how well, or poorly, we age. I was joined by two of my colleagues from The UltraWellness Center, Dr. Elizabeth Boham and Dr. Todd LePine.\xa0\nTo get all of my longevity tips, sign up for my weekly Longevity newsletter at drhyman.com/longevity.\nThis episode is brought to you by InsideTracker and Athletic Greens.\nInsideTracker is a personalized health and wellness platform like no other.
