  Can You Expand Your Palate Over 50? My Assisted Mewing Experiment I’ve always believed that the body is more adaptable than we’re told. We accept so many limitations as “just aging.” Your jaw is set. Your bones are fixed. Your face is done developing. But what if that’s not entirely true? Lately, I’ve started a new experiment. I’m testing whether palate expansion is possible over 50 using an assisted mewing device. And I’m documenting the entire experience. Why I Even Care About Palate Expansion This isn’t about chasing perfection. It’s about function. The width of your palate affects your airway. A narrow palate often means a narrow nasal passage. That can contribute to mouth breathing, snoring, poor sleep, and even sleep apnea. It also influences tongue posture, jaw alignment, and the overall structure of the face. When the palate is wider: Nasal breathing can improve Tongue posture becomes more natural Snoring and mild sleep apnea may decrease Facial st...

In this episode, I sit down with Vanessa Baldwin for a fascinating conversation about homeopathy — and how it can help keep you and your family healthy, vibrant, and mentally strong. We talk about everything from simple acute remedies to deeper constitutional ones tailored to each individual. Vanessa explains how she works as a homeopath, how children can benefit, and why raising them in a completely sterile environment may not be the best approach. She shares how natural exposure — even to childhood illnesses — can strengthen the immune system and protect against more serious conditions later in life. We also dive into how homeopathy supports women during menopause, easing symptoms and helping with the emotional transition. Vanessa shares how this gentle but powerful modality can even help release ancestral patterns and promote healing that extends through generations. This is such an eye-opening and empowering conversation about natural health, emotional balance, and true vitality...

How Zora Benhamou Rebuilt Her Body After Osteoarthritis and Double Hip Replacement Osteoarthritis is often presented as an inevitable part of aging. A slow decline. A one-way road toward pain, stiffness, and eventually surgery. But in this inspiring episode of The Aging Games Podcast , I sit down with Zora Benhamou , founder of HackMyAge.com and host of the Hack My Age Podcast , to challenge that narrative in a very real and honest way. Zora’s story is not about avoiding surgery at all costs. It is about doing everything in your power to understand your body, support it intelligently, and make informed decisions without fear or shame. Diagnosed Young and Facing the Odds Zora was diagnosed with osteoarthritis in her early 40s. Far earlier than most people expect. On paper, she checked nearly every risk factor. Joint degeneration. Chronic pain. Loss of mobility. What followed was a two-year journey of experimentation, persistence, and deep self-education. Like many people in the bio...

Here’s a clean, strong YouTube description that feels authoritative, not clickbait, and fits your voice: Insulin resistance often develops quietly, long before blood sugar numbers cross into a “diagnosis.” Many people have it for years without realizing it, because the early signs are subtle, common, and frequently dismissed as stress, aging, or hormones. In this video, I break down why insulin resistance can be hiding in plain sight and walk you through the 6 most common symptoms that are often overlooked . These are signs your body is struggling to handle glucose properly, even if your labs still look “normal.” We’ll talk about what insulin resistance actually is, why it matters far beyond weight or diabetes, and how it affects energy, fat storage, brain function, and long term health. Most importantly, I explain why catching it early gives you the power to reverse it before it turns into something more serious. If you’ve been doing “all the right things” but still feel off, this...

The Real Key to Blood Sugar Balance Is Not Just Food In this fascinating episode of The Aging Games Podcast , I sit down with Danielle Hamilton , who I lovingly call the queen of blood sugar . Danielle has a rare ability to take something most people find confusing or intimidating and make it both practical and empowering. This conversation goes far beyond carbs, calories, or willpower. It is about understanding how your body actually works. We start by breaking down what blood sugar balance really means and why it matters so much for energy, focus, mood, hormone health, and long-term vitality. Danielle explains how to recognize the early signs of blood sugar imbalance, long before lab work flags a problem. Things like afternoon crashes, cravings, anxiety, poor sleep, and stubborn weight gain are often the body asking for support, not discipline. One of the most eye-opening parts of the conversation is the distinction between insulin and leptin , two hormones that are often lumped t...

Healing Through Frequency: A Conversation With Greg Glick In this week’s episode of The Aging Games Podcast, I sat down with someone whose story is both powerful and deeply inspiring. Greg Glick spent most of his career as a Physician Assistant in family medicine — fully immersed in the world of lab results, diagnostics, and conventional treatment protocols. But one life-changing moment shifted everything. Greg was hit by a car while cycling and thrown more than 100 feet. His recovery was long, painful, and full of questions that traditional medicine simply couldn’t answer. And that’s where his journey into energy, coherence, and frequency medicine began. What I love about Greg’s story is how real it is. He didn’t set out to become an energy healer or work with sound. He was forced to rethink everything he thought he knew about the body. And through that, he discovered the world of vibration, trauma release, and the intelligence of our own energetic system. In our conversation, we ...

Why Heart Disease Is Still the Number One Killer of Women Heart disease remains the leading cause of death in women, yet so many are suffering quietly, often without clear warning signs and without being taken seriously by the medical system. In this conversation with Dr. Wolfson, we unpack why this is happening and what women truly need to know to protect their hearts. One of the most striking points Dr. Wolfson makes is how conventional cardiology often misses the root causes of heart disease. Many women are told their tests look “normal,” only to experience worsening symptoms later. He explains why he no longer fully trusts many standard heart tests, and why relying on numbers alone can give a false sense of security. We also explore his controversial but well-researched views on cholesterol and statins, and why he believes they are frequently overprescribed without addressing the underlying metabolic, inflammatory, and environmental factors driving disease. We dive into what opt...
