About this listen

 What does “health span” really mean — beyond the buzzword? In this episode, we dive into autoimmunity, chronic inflammation and the everyday habits that can support long-term health in the real world. . We explore how inflammation shows up in ways many of us don’t recognise — from joint pain and fatigue to stress responses, sleep disruption and visceral fat. There’s a deep dive into the difference between acute and chronic stress, how stress can impact blood sugar (even without food), and why so many women may need to rethink how they approach fasting. . We also discuss: The lifestyle shifts that can support autoimmune conditions Fasting for women — and when it may not be appropriate Why muscle is critical for longevity, metabolic health and resilience Overtraining vs recovery Supplements — and why testing matters before adding anything new HRT, hormones and ageing Foods that may support long-term health (including some underrated staples) Plus, we look at emerging longevity tools, how biological age testing works, and why progress — not perfection — is a more sustainable approach to wellbeing. .
