## Resource

Everywhere you look right now, there’s a new "biohack" promising to fix midlife metabolism, clear brain fog, and accelerate fat loss. But how much of it is actually backed by science, and how much is just clever marketing? In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on my own health experiments. Over the last few weeks, I’ve been testing two of the biggest trends in the health space: Ketone-IQ shots and Vively continuous blood trackers. I am breaking down exactly how my body responded, what the data showed, and my final verdict as a sports nutritionist on whether you should actually spend your hard-earned money on them. In this episode, we cover: The Ketone Craze: The science behind exogenous ketones and my honest review of Ketone-IQ. Tracking from the Inside Out: What I learned about my metabolic health by tracking my blood markers with Vively. Shiny Object Syndrome: How to navigate the overwhelming world of midlife health trends without wasting time or money. The Non-Negotiables: Why you absolutely shouldn't invest in advanced biohacks until you master the fundamentals—like hitting your 30g daily fiber goal, prioritizing high-protein meals, and lifting weights. If you are a woman over 40 wanting to cut through the noise and build a body that feels energetic, strong, and capable, this episode is for you.
