    Should we all be microdosing GLP-1?

    •

    Robin

    Just when we thought the obsession had died down, GLP-1s are in the news again. 98 million Americans have prediabetes (and 80% don’t know it). No wonder everyone is talking about microdosing GLP-1 and a recent Wall Street Journal article is calling for putting GLP-1s in the water.  🤓 What to…

    Last week I co-hosted an event for New York’s YPO Women on female longevity at the Parsley Health center in NYC along with two brilliant speakers: nutrition expert JJ Virgin, and Melanie Goldey, CEO of Tally Health.  It was exactly the kind of event I live for: a room full…

    I have a new mantra: healthier than ever.  At age 43, I refuse to believe that my healthiest years are behind me, because I know they don’t have to be. My goal is to make my next 10 years even healthier and more vital than my last decade. Because as…

  • My personal supplement stack.

    Robin

    I get asked so often from people if the supplements they are taking are legit, I feel like I should set up a roadside stand with a sign that says: “Will evaluate your supplement stack for $10K.” Always good to have a backup plan, right? 😉  I also get asked…

  • Are plant-based meats just ultraprocessed food in disguise?

    •

    Robin

    Beware the health halo.  Often, friends and patients are shocked when they find out a food billed as healthy contains sneaky harmful additives, or isn’t actually all that nutritive. In this vein, I get a lot of questions about plant-based meats. Are they good for you or are they just…

  • My cervical cancer scare

    •

    Robin

    Does the cure for UTIs, HPV, and BV lie in the microbiome? In my 20s, a routine pap test diagnosed abnormal cells. That led to a biopsy of my cervix called a colposcopy, which revealed I had CIN3, or “severely abnormal” precancerous cells. I was lucky to catch it while…

  • Omega-3 deficiency is as harmful as smoking

    •

    Robin

    In all the conversations I have with friends, patients, and colleagues about longevity, one nutrient continually comes up: omega-3s.  Omega-3s are polyunsaturated fatty-acids (PUFAs) which are essential for human health. They are a vital part of every cell in your body, acting as a structural component in cell membranes and…

  • Is NAD+ the key to energy and longevity?

    •

    Robin

    People are talking about NAD+ like it’s the holy grail of longevity. Or at least a no-brainer lever we can pull to increase energy and vitality.  Lately I’m getting lots of DMs and texts from friends as well as questions from patients on which longevity treatments are legit and which…

  • MTHFR mutations can cause anxiety, fatigue and fertility issues. You likely have one.

    How much do genetics really matter? Is nature more important than nurture? Should I do genetic testing or will it just tell me what my bloodwork already shows?  I get these questions a lot. What we know about our genes is like a snowflake on the tip of an iceberg.…
