Keep watching: https://youtu.be/8Le3epKylKI https://youtu.be/NZI8qJjN2Qw https://youtu.be/eJeTsPEiXRA If hot flashes and night sweats are just a typical part of menopause, why do some women experience them even before menopause begins? Even women taking estrogen can still experience hot flashes. Hot flashes are not directly correlated with high or low estrogen levels. Instead, they’re related to how quickly hormone levels drop. Genistein, an extract from soy, has shown benefits for hot flashes at doses of 54 mg twice daily. Taking 400 mg of magnesium glycinate daily may also help support brain health during menopause. Night sweats and hot flashes are not the same. Night sweats can last up to 60 minutes and often occur between 3 and 4 a.m. They may be more closely related to blood sugar, so supporting healthy blood sugar levels can help reduce night sweats. Muscle loss after menopause is another common concern. The amino acid leucine is important for muscle growth, but getting sufficient protein is just as essential for maintaining muscle mass.

Learn more about insulin resistance and metabolic health: https://youtu.be/lISByvsI1fE https://youtu.be/QZuutrT7Y4k https://youtu.be/zA3Np51HLjE If someone has more than 8 skin tags, their risk of developing metabolic syndrome may be 11 times greater than someone without skin tags! Skin tags are a metabolic problem, not a skin problem. They’re associated with high insulin and elevated insulin-like growth factor 1. Skin tags often appear on the neck, under the arms, and in skin folds due to a combination of insulin-like growth factor and friction in these areas. For topical skin tag removal, apply a drop of iodine and cover the skin tag with a bandage twice a day. To prevent skin tags from returning, it’s essential to address the underlying cause by lowering insulin. Reducing eating frequency and lowering your carbohydrate intake can help address one of the most common skin tag causes and keep them from coming back.

The $5 Vitamin That Beats Expensive NAD
Stop wasting money on expensive NAD+ supplements that only turn into $5 niacin in the body. Discover the truth about NAD supplements, why they became so popular, and a few inexpensive NAD boosters that don’t require an expensive NAD supplement. 👉 Download Dr. Berg’s Free Daily Health Routine: https://drbrg.co/4sqwoxP Just so you know, my full line of high-quality supplements is available on Amazon — search Dr. Berg Supplements. 0:00 NAD supplements 0:27 NAD vs. niacin 0:47 NAD explained 1:05 NAD anti-aging supplements 1:55 NAD supplement scam 2:09 NAD vs. NMN 4:21 What causes NAD levels to drop? 4:40 NAD boosters What causes that niacin flush?

Keep watching: https://youtu.be/MW_D2Sdlr3k https://youtu.be/KHTDAnsSO5k https://youtu.be/G8KYIV0vKus Microbes in your body can turn an expensive NAD supplement into inexpensive flush niacin. Research has shown that niacin can actually raise NAD levels in the blood 5 to 8 times their baseline levels. NAD helps pull energy from the food you eat and convert it into ATP for cellular energy. It’s also involved in DNA repair and longevity proteins. NAD supplements have become popular because NAD is believed to decline with age, but research suggests NAD levels remain stable in healthy people as they get older. You don’t need an expensive NAD supplement. Weight training is one of the best ways to increase NAD, while foods like beef liver, meat, and fish can also help boost your levels.

I Took Prednisone for Years. Nobody Warned Me.

Watch these next: https://youtu.be/s0jIXMc3PS0 https://youtu.be/dktvNq-vCvA https://youtu.be/TZ0Dm6ULLAw Your adrenal glands produce cortisol, which helps keep inflammation under control. Prednisone is a synthetic corticosteroid that’s about four times more potent than cortisol, so it can reduce inflammation very quickly. It can also suppress your body’s natural cortisol production, affecting adrenal function even after you stop taking it. Prednisone can also affect your body’s mineral balance. Sodium can rise while potassium decreases, potentially contributing to fluid retention and high blood pressure. Beyond reducing inflammation, prednisone can also suppress normal immune function. The longer you take prednisone, the greater the potential effect on your immune system. For autoimmune disease, prednisone doesn’t address the underlying cause. It temporarily suppresses the immune response and inflammation. Prednisone side effects can include bone loss, blood sugar problems, muscle loss, eye problems, mood changes, and many more.
