In this podcast, Dr. Rodney and Karen talk about common sayings about aging that can begin to feel true. We are surrounded by a culture that worships youth and denounces getting older. Have you found yourself saying any of these?

Here are a few of the sayings that we hear all too often about getting older:

1. In answer to the question of, “How are you feeling?” they answer… “Not bad for ____ (fill in age)!
2. If I knew I was going to live this long I would have taken better care of myself.
3. I am Over the Hill!
4. You’ve gotta die of something so I might as well eat, drink and be merry.
5. I exercise so I can eat anything that I want.

We know this is common but is it NORMAL?

We want you to challenge your thoughts about growing older so that you can go the distance.

In this episode, Dr. Rodney and Karen tackle a difficult topic about the impact of alcohol your body and particularly your brain.

New research shows that alcohol disrupts your gut health because it kills beneficial bacteria, potentially causing leaky gut syndrome and triggering inflammatory responses that affect your liver and brain

This is of particular concern to women because regular alcohol consumption can alter hormonal balance, increase estrogen levels and potentially raise cancer risk, especially for breast cancer

Unfortunately, even low levels of alcohol consumption can have a negative impact on brain structure by reducing overall brain volume and can affect the integrity of gray and white matter

You may be saying to yourself that people drink alcohol and seem to still live to a ripe old age. Keep in mind that in the Blue Zones those referenced grow their own grapes, make their own wine and make a small glass of wine part of their social tapestry. All of these are factors as you give yourself a gut check.
