In this episode of One Thirty Biohacks, we’re back with Prof. Christian Breymann — this time to talk about metabolic health as one of the most important foundations for long-term longevity, and why it becomes even more relevant across the hormonal shifts a woman goes through.
We explore how metabolic health intersects with perimenopause and menopause, and why symptoms are often misunderstood when we don’t look at the full picture: blood sugar regulation, inflammation, body composition, energy production, and the way hormones and metabolism constantly influence each other.
We also touch on PCOS (and the evolving terminology and understanding of the condition), and why it’s often a metabolic story as much as it is a reproductive one.
Finally, we dive into a topic that deserves far more attention: iron deficiency — what it can look like in real life, why it’s so common, and how countries like Switzerland use high-dose iron infusions as standard practice (while it’s still far less common in Denmark). A conversation with real takeaways and a few perspectives worth learning from.
