The Truth About Heart Disease, Hormone Loss & Bone Health with Dr. Myra Reed

Did you know the #1 killer of women after menopause isn’t cancer — it’s heart disease? And the #1 disease of menopause? Osteoporosis.

In this powerful conversation, I’m joined by Dr. Myra Reed, a functional internal medicine physician who has helped thousands of women reverse chronic illness, balance hormones, and reclaim their vitality. Together, we dive deep into the overlooked connection between hormone loss, heart disease, bone decline, and the broken healthcare system that’s still handing out statins and short visits as if that’s the answer.

If you’ve been told your cholesterol is too high, or if you’re wondering whether hormones are safe post-menopause—this episode is for you.

• Why estrogen is essential for heart, brain, and bone health
