Role of Menopause & Mitochondria in Women's Aging

In this episode of the Hormone Heroines Podcast, Dr. Heidi Codino and Dr. Sundeep Dugar explore how estrogen drives energy production, mitochondrial health, and overall cellular function. The discussion covers why postmenopausal estrogen loss leads to fatigue, brain fog, muscle loss, and bone density decline. They also highlight Mito Catalyst E, a natural molecule that mimics exercise-induced hormonal effects to promote mitochondrial biogenesis, support metabolism, and enhance muscle and cognitive function. The episode connects hormonal biochemistry, mitochondrial function, exercise, microbiome health, and practical interventions to help women maintain vitality during perimenopause, menopause, and beyond.- - - - -About the Guest:Dr. Sundeep Dugar is a co-inventor of Zetia and Bitorin, with 38 years of experience in drug discovery and over 100 patents. Awarded ACS Inventor of the Year, he specializes in mitochondrial health, hormone biology, and novel therapeutic interventions to support metabolic and muscular function. His work focuses on translating decades of research into clinically validated approaches for women's health and bioenergetics.Explore the science behind Mito Catalyst EWebsite: https://www.blueoaknx.com/science/- - - - -Hormone HeroinesInstagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@hormone_heroines⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@hormone_heroines⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Youtube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@HormoneHeroines⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.blossominglongevity.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠- - - - -PODCASTThank you for listening.Please subscribe and share.This podcast is produced by DrTalks.comhttps://drtalks.com/podcast-service/
