The WHI in 2002 created chaos for women. Millions were taken off HRT (hormone replacement therapy) because it caused ‘increased heart attacks, strokes, breast cancer and blood clots’
It made headlines across the world.
When the findings were clarified to be that SYNTHETIC hormones in one part of the study caused this, no one bat an eyelid.
No big headlines. No news flash. No re-education of doctors.

Women have suffered ever since.
Even worse, doctors (most!) have made no progress in learning how to prescribe HRT, safely. Most still think it is dangerous.

Hormones are not just for s*xual function and drive. Not just to prevent bladder infections. And not just to protect bone.
Hormones include estrogen, progesterone and testosterone.
Other hormones needing to be looked at in tandem are cortisol, thyroid and insulin, growth hormone, DHEA.
GLP 1 is a hormone too!

✅Sleep
✅Brain health and dementia risk reduction
✅Mood regulation (helps depression)
✅Calm mood (helps anxiety)
✅Collagen protection
✅Bone health
✅Heart protection
✅Memory
✅Body fat distribution
✅Cholesterol regulation
✅Brain chemistry balance

The list is much longer - Women and men need safe hormone replacement therapy.

We specialize in cutting edge hormone replacement programs that have your healthy aging, and vitality as the goal.

Look Younger, Feel Stronger: How Science + Self-Care Meet

At Live Younger, we believe in combining advanced aesthetic treatments with foundational internal wellness. Extend and prolong the results of every treatment we offer. Here's a peek into one of our favourite treatments + daily supplement pillars that support your skin and your health.

✨ Thermage — Non-Surgical Skin Tightening
Thermage uses radiofrequency energy to gently heat the deeper layers of your skin, which triggers collagen contraction and stimulates the production of new collagen. Over time, this helps tighten and contour, giving your skin a lifted, more youthful look – without surgery or long downtime.

Results are seen immediately, improve further over 2–6 months. A single session can last 1–2 years, however at Live Younger, our clinets are seeing results lasting 3+ years when we address inner factors that accelerate aging.

But aesthetic treatments are only one piece of the puzzle. To support skin health from the inside out, we focus on key nutrients and hormone balance which help boost your skin and make you feel younger too!

💊 Foundational Supplements

Live Younger Ubiquinol: Repairs damaged skin cells, boosts collagen, protects against oxidative stress: the leading cause of aging, bothinside and out.

Super Pro 3: Your gut is your “second brain” - healthy gut flora helps with immune balance, inflammation control, and skin health (think: the gut-skin axis).

Live Younger Omega (EPA / DHA): These anti-inflammatory fats support heart, brain, and skin health. They’re especially powerful for longevity. No one eats enough fish, and low Omega 3 levels cause dry, scaly or rough skin. The Live Younger formula is specially formulated to be 100% absorbed for your skin to get radiant.

Live Younger D3: More than just bone health. It helps your skin by protecting against UV damage and helps cell growth. Vitamin D helps regulate immune function, mood, and cell health; deficiency is common, especially in climates with limited sun exposure like ours.

By combining Thermage treatments with smart supplementation and hormone therapy, you're not just treating visible signs of aging - you're supporting your body’s foundation for long-term results that last longer.
With the loss of estrogen in the perimenopause and menopause you can lose up to 30% of your collagen rapidly.

Depression in men looks different than in women.
It might look like withdrawal and isolation.
It might look like increased self medication so thy alcohol or other drugs, watching screens or playing games for long periods of time instead of participating in life.

With a focus on gut healing and increase whole, high nutritional density foods, the next step is to replete brain chemistry.
Amino acids are the building blocks of brain and body chemistry. It comes from digesting protein.
The average person doesn’t eat enough protein to meet all their daily needs.
✅Protein shakes with whey, egg, beef or casein protein hep increase the protein intake.
✅Taking 5HTP at bedtime helps your body make more serotonin.
✅spending 10-20min in direct sunlight after waking up helps the circadian rhythm and mood, improves sleep which is important to help mood.
✅Omega 3 and Vit D has been shown to treat moderate depression when combined with exercise, as effectively as antidepressants.
✅Melatonin before bed if you have trouble falling asleep.
✅2 critical supplements to take for depression, stress and general well being are super B and Super Mag. They are vital in many important cellular pathways, from energy metabolism, to creating healthy brain chemistry.
✅Low testosterone can have low mood and depression as a symptom.

DEPRESSION IN MEN.

Boys are raised with a certain standard that defines masculinity.
‘Real Men don’t cry’…
Men don’t easily admit to not coping, feeing sad or overwhelmed or seeking help out of fear that they may be viewed as weak.

There’s a lot to unpack around this, however let’s talk about depression more.

- Brain chemistry imbalance underlies depression.
In the traditional medical model, you need a drug to increase certain brain chemicals to resolve this.
In a Functiona Medicine model we look at the gut-brain axis.

- Gut-Brain axis:

*Brain chemistry and your gut:
Serotonin (your feel happy hormone) is largely produced in the gut. GABA (your feel calm hormone) is modulated by your gut microbiome.

*Gut inflammation leads to brain inflammation.
Food sensitivities increase gut inflammation. An inflamed brain cannot balance brain chemistry, clean out debris, or sleep.

- Sleep:
This is a chicken or egg situation. Poor sleep leads to deranged brain chemistry and increases the incidence of depression.
Poor brain chemistry leads to depression and poor sleep.

To make optimal brain chemistry, look after your gut health to be able to absorb nutrients needed to create balanced brain chemistry.

✅Avoid ultra-processed food (UPC). Numerous studies confirm that UPC leads to depression and other brain health disorders.
✅Eliminate gluten and dairy. These are the top 2 inducers of gut inflammation.
✅Heal a leaky gut.
✅Try a modified elimination diet: Remove gluten, dairy, eggs, sugar, alcohol, corn, soy, peanuts and citrus for a month.
✅Eat adequate protein and supplement with complete amino acid containing protein shakes.
✅Ensure you have adequate levels of Omega 3 and Vitamin D.
✅Exercise daily.
Studies show that moderate intensity Exercise, like brisk walking outdoors for 20-30 min a day with Vit D and Omega 3 can treat moderate depression as effectively as medication.
Not all supplements are created equal. Be aware of low quality vitamins that contain fillers, additives an variable active ingredients.

Lifestyle is your starting point to treat all of your health.
It always boils down to diet, exercise and supplements as essential components to protect or restore health.

To Live Younger, focus on gut health.

Nutrients need to get to your cells for you to feel and function your best.
When any part of your gut is unhealthy, you will have symptoms that are not necessarily limited to your gut.

‘Leaky gut’ and ‘the microbiome’ and the ‘gut-brain axis’ are catch phrases in the quest for better health.

However, let’s focus on the basics:

*Sitting down to enjoy a meal without distraction activates the parasympathetic nervous system, which plays an important role in stress reduction.

* Chewing your food well allows the process of digestion to start. There are important digestive enzymes in your saliva
It helps reduce overall caloric intake and helps with weight management by increasing fullness and reducing levels of ghrelin, the hunger hormone.

* The Enteric Nervous System (second brain) is a separate nervous system that connects your gut to your brain, bypassing the spinal cord and all its nerves.

It is affected by stress, leading to altered digestive enzyme production, inflammation, altered gut motility.
IBS and emotional health are connected.

* A healthy gut has 3 proper formed bowel movements a day, typically after meals.
There is no gas or bloating, no indigestion or feeling full for too long. There is no constipation or diarrhea or abdominal pain.

* More than half of your 💩contains dead bacteria from your microbiome. Focusing on the balance of the trillions of microorganisms in your gut promotes digestive health, immune system health and also impacts brain chemistry like serotonin and GABA.

* Your gut ages first and faster than most other organs.
One of the first things that happens, either from ageing or stress, is decreased production of digestive enzymes and hydrochloride acid support.

Without chewing well, a healthy microbiome and good bowel movements, and optimal digestive enzymes; the rest of your health cannot reach optimal levels.

Health span is how well you live, Lifespan is how long you live.

Know your numbers!!

Simply measuring your waist circumference can give you a clue about your heart disease risk.
Heart disease is still the number one killer of both men and women. IT IS PREVENTABLE.

How to measure your waist:

Find the top of your hip bone and the bottom of your ribs.
Breathe out normally.
Place the tape measure midway between these points, in line with your belly button, and wrap it around your waist loose enough to fit one finger inside the tape.
Check your measurement.

Your health is at risk if your waist size is:

Men: 37 inches (Over 94cm)
Women: 31.5 inches (Over 80cm)
