Wellness is everywhere — but not everything labeled “healthy” is actually helping. In this episode, we’re reviewing the biggest wellness myths that show up on social media, in group chats, and maybe even in your own supplement cabinet. Some we have personally tried!

We’ll break down popular claims around aluminum deodorant, plastic containers, weighted vests, red light therapy, collagen, magnesium and more!

This episode keeps it real, fun, and practical as we separate evidence from hype, explain why quick fixes are so tempting, and share what actually supports long-term health.

Come for the myth-busting, stay for the “wait… I bought that too” moments.

Cholesterol talk just got an update, and we’re breaking it down without making your brain need a statin. In this episode, we dig into the new lipid management guidelines and what they mean for real people trying to protect their heart health.

We’ll cover why the conversation is shifting beyond just “good cholesterol” and “bad cholesterol,” with more focus on overall cardiovascular risk, LDL goals, triglycerides, ApoB, and Lipoprotein(a), also known as Lp(a).

This episode also talks about earlier screening, more personalized risk assessment, and why some people may need lower LDL targets depending on their heart risk.

From lifestyle changes to statins, newer medications, and what labs you may want to ask about, we make the guidelines feel less intimidating and more practical. Because managing cholesterol is not about shame, fear, or giving up everything you love — it’s about knowing your numbers, understanding your risk, and making smart moves for your future heart.

Same cholesterol. New rules. Better prevention. Your arteries deserve the upgrade.

PCOS has officially entered a new era with a new name: Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome, or PMOS. In this episode, we break down why the name changed, what it means, and why words matter when it comes to diagnosis, treatment, and feeling understood.

For years, “polycystic ovary syndrome” caused confusion because not everyone with the condition has ovarian cysts, and the name made it sound like a problem limited to the ovaries. PMOS tells a fuller story: this condition can involve multiple hormones, insulin resistance, irregular periods, acne, excess hair growth, fertility concerns, weight changes, and long-term metabolic health.

We’ll talk about why experts and patient advocates pushed for the change, how the new name may improve awareness and care, and what patients should know moving forward. Same condition, better name, bigger conversation.

This episode is for anyone who has PCOS, PMOS, loves someone who does, or has ever thought, “Wait… why is it called that?”
