I've always appreciated that most of the Kennedy and Shriver family have spent their lives advocating and creating programs for those of us who don't have money or access for better living. Thanks to all ❤
Um, let’s actually look at what’s happening ing here: this is an informercial monetizing Hyman’s commercial projects. Many of those are not based on solid science. Shriver learned well from Arnold how to very effectively appear to be being helpful while deemphasizing her financial ties and motivations. If you think all of that is admirable you’re on your own.
@@victoriaboster1177 Agreed, Shriver is a member of one of the richest families on the planet. This is all a smoke screen to push an agenda that I'm sure she gets monetary benefit from. When were any of these families for the little people, NEVER!
As a 61 year old woman, I feel I’m only just now learning about how I made myself sick all my life. I’ve only just stopped eating sugar the last few years. I’ve still so much to learn. Thank you
Algebra professor “the flu grows in your stomach on white sugar” , nobody else knew that (or said it) , i haven’t had a stomach flu since i was 19 . There’s a sugar season(starts with Halloween, ends with Easter), not a flu season, flu is aviary, it would be worse in the summer
Maria is not a female. I am so sick of the DECEPTION esp. of the Kennedys. Look up Jackie in a bathing suit or RFKJr, "sisters; & ex-wives. SEE it yet? Look at Marilyn Monroe singing at Happy Birthday, They give us a good look at Marilyn's back. Its a dude. I know its shocking but you see the world "speaks" in symbolism.
20:20 Yes, so many challenges. A big one is health insurance. People often only seek support from health care providers that are in their health insurance network. Functional medicine needs to start being covered by health insurance.
This is a highly beneficial program to see. It's great to hear about the Protein Bar. It would be great to have such a product with 24 grams of protein and 6 grams or less of sugar.
She is still just as sharp & well spoken as ever. Awesome! Thank you for picking up the issue of WOMENS HEALTH. It’s sorely needed. 🙏 Rich or poor, health affects everyone.
The world needs more Maria’s, more people advocating for better health for all. It might not be perfect but at least the conversations have started by people who have some clout
I started in my 40's to take a preemptive approach to my health. Now in my 60's I'm so glad I did. I did exactly what Maria is advocating: control the narrative in your checkups. Make a list of talking points and come away with the answers you seek. Too often it's the clinic and doctor controlling it. You may not get all the answers but you definitely walk away feeling a sense of empowerment. This check up was one of the most pleasant experiences I've had. I believe she appreciated it too. Be your own advocate.
It's unfortunate that only upper-class folks can really afford to see functional medicine practitioners on a regular basis. The government, insurance companies, and Big Medicine are in bed together. Average Americans are largely at the mercy of all three.
Well at least they talk about it in Canada, the closest thing we have to that is a nutritionist, and pharma! Most people don't realize that board of directors of big pharma are all catholic-owned. I think people forgot who they are down through history.
Humans are at the Mercy OF OUR OWN MINDS. We are 95 percent enslaved by the powers that be - religion, politics - keeping us in this perpetual hell. Wake up World. Feed Yourself to stay out of doctors and dentists. ❤
All everyone needs to do is eat healthy(no packaged and processed foods), low sugar, no alcohol, no smoking, etc. AND, walk every day. No one needs to be rich to do these things. Walking is free. This is actually the FIRST thing any functional medicine doctor will tell a patient.
Some insurance companies do. Find the doctor and ask them what insurance they accept and shop those companies. I just had my insurance pay for the bloodwork but the dr is out of pocket until I switch and I will. Like they say, be your own advocate. Hard to do when you feel crappy, exhausted, and dismissed. But have hope, it’s out there, just hard to find, but if you look you will find and be well again!!! Best to all of you.
Hmmm, not once did either one of them say 1)eat whole unprocessed foods, 2) walk everyday, its FREE. Also, cut out all the sugar, alcohol, smoking, junk foods. This is actually what a functional medicine doctor will tell you to do first, THEN incorporate supplements as needed. Do we need more research dollars??? No. They already know the answers (eat healthy, exercise).
You are so correct, i also follow Dr. Mindy Pelz and her book Fast like a girl goes over the healing of fasting and non gmo and organic foods is so important.
They both said this in so many educational and interview videos . That wasn't the topic of today's video. I'm grateful for their in depth considerations here, beyond those basics of metabolic health
I’ve heard Mark Hymen say that tons of times. In fact sugar is his #1 soapbox. I started following his protocol on March 1st after listening to tons of his videos. I cannot tell you how good it has been for me. Life changing really. Didn’t buy his books or anything.
Incredibly Inspirational … I’m totally onboard with This approach. As a 73 year old female, having Hashimoto’s for over 40 years, no answers , but started to make Wellness as my goal, with a Pegan Diet, Intermittent Fasting, swimming two hours a day and cycling. Just trying to prevent any further deterioration. I had two knee replacements and a hip replacement in the last 1.2 years. Will pursue the Functional Medicine approach. I want to learn more about my status. It’s a lot of work but it’s the most important thing I can do for myself. It’s Unfortunate that I didn’t start earlier, but my joint replacements gave me the impetus. Thank you for this motivational podcast
Suzy, Google Dr brownstein and he will tell you all about iodine and how we're lacking in iodine and how women especially are impacted by this deficiency. Also another book besides his books that is really easy to understand and it's available at your library is called THE IODIDE CRISIS with an introduction by Dr brownstein. Good luck ☘️
Very precious interview! Thank you Maria and Dr. Hyman for sharing all this amazing information! Communication is the key, to keep the society strong and healthy! Huge appreciation and much love!
Thanks so much Maria & Mark! I had no idea how much of a powerhouse you are Maria! And I know you're going to smash your below 60 goal. I absolutely loved this podcast and am already a big fan of Dr. Hyman's work. Just last year, I signed up for Function Health as I was interested in finding out my biological age. What a pleasant surprise when I found out that I am 15 years younger than my chronological age. This just reinforces all of the work I've done to educate and advocate for my health. Lucily, my dad has always been a great role model for exercise, so I had that figured out in my late 20's. Sometimes you need a bit of affirmation because it takes work, presence and knowledge to prioritize health. I'm so grateful for both of you!!!!❤
Dr. Human. Thank you very much for your podcasts. They are very interactive, funny, and filled with valuable information and timely. I recently completed my Functional Medicine Fellowship and understand that it is only intuitive to make an 180-degree turn to third field. 😊
I am a Canadian that was suffering from arthritic joints and issues digesting food which o suffered from life long. I took the Viome full body test and very complete questionnaire to analyze what’s going on in my body. I ordered their specialized prebiotics and vitamin mix for me. Within 2 weeks of taking these supplements/prebiotics and following the food diet my pain was almost eliminated and I was able to sleep better. I have always eaten healthy food and only took anti-inflammatory counter medication. My mother also suffered her whole life with many things he which is so very painful for her and us the family to watch the suffering. She had many operations removing her intestines, thyroid and Dr.’s over prescient medication. Gut health is huge…
Thank you so much for this. I've been trying to decide which video to share with my new Resident at our rural hospital. He asked me to send him something more about Functional Medicine after he saw my bloodwork (which is a minimal gross analysis) improve to better than it had been in 20 years💜 after following many of these nutritional lifestyle changes I learned from Mark Hyman, Jason Fung, and Mindy Pelz. As Maria and Mark discuss, so empowering to learn we may change and prevent the negative health trajectories we were on! So very grateful!
I love her humanitarian heart. Maria is a passionate 😊advocate for mothers and children. I am a wife, mother and grandmother also, who wants to participate in this journey. Perhaps Mark might offer these services at cost for a population of folks. Financial considerations prevent many of us from access.
Maria ti seguo da tanti e per me sei un grande esempio di eccellenza e sono felice e onorata di poterti sentire.Tanti auguri di ogni bene ad un'altra grande Kennedy ❤
So glad to hear that this is going on . I have been on this mission myself and am now close to 89 yrs. old and invery good shape and take no meds. I play tennis, tap dance, do yoga and go to the gym. I would be willing to get these blood tests that Maria has had . Does anyone know how to get this done.
I am so happy to see that there is now a conversation around preventing disease and not just taking medications for symptoms. Unfortunately,, until we really get our metabolic health in order we will continue to see a rise in all diseases. Dr. Matt Phillips of NZ has been running clinical trials for Alzheimer's and Parkinsons using the keto diet and has been able to reduce symptoms by allowing the mitochondria to heal and restore metabolic health. He believes all diseases are a result of dysregulation of energy in the mitochondria and is at the root cause of all diseases.
@@jilljames178 Yes, but until Metabolic Therapy becomes standard of care and people become more informed about the mitochondria we will never get to the root of the problem. You might want to check out Lauren Kennedy's channel Living Well With Schizophrenia she is doing a Metabolic Keto diet and has put her mental illness Schizoaffective Disorder into remission after decades of suffering debilitating symptoms in only two weeks and off of most of her medications.
I must say that joining the Function Health was one of the best decisions I made recently. I love the dashboard and the explanation on each marker is a great way for us out of the medical field to understand the results and how we can keep them optimal. My biological age is -18 and on the way to improve that marker so I don't end up in bed for years as my grandmother, slowly fading away due to Alzheimer's.
I LOVE MY FUNCTION HEALTH! I can’t say enough about all the bio markers I’ve been able to improve on and how much better I feel. Plus, I can reorder any time I want for less money.
Hi, Dr. Hyman! i am absolutely curtain that you are healthier now, in compare to last year and years before. You just look so much better and healthier!
Thank you Maria for your wonderful work! ❤️ I love your family too. Whenever I think of Cape Cod and the national seashore I think of JFK. And whenever I walk through magnificent Grand Central Station, I think of Jackie. God bless!
I am so thankful for podcasts and videos like this and for books like The Mind Diet and other posts on The Sunday Paper that share valuable, proven data to try to help us have a fighting chance against this dreadful disease.
Paulamoore, so true. When he said we only change $500.00 a year to see your markers, I thought to myself "I'm out". I have to pay car insurance instead. Yeah, it's a good idea, just not affordable for most of us.
Maria - I think about how to age gracefully as I am currently taking care of my mom who just broke her hip three weeks ago! I tried your MOSH bars and woke up the next morning feeling amazing the next day! Thank you! I am totally hooked now! Mark thank you for all you do too! I have been following you for a long time and I am proud at how healthy and great I am at 60, so thank you for all you do!!!❤
Let's not hate on Bryan Johnson. What's wrong with wanting to be super healthy and live as long as possible? He's sharing all his findings. Granted, a lot of what he's doing is not affordable for most of us but the same can be said for functional medicine.
If your focus becomes solely on living longer, I find it hard to live for today. That's all we are promised anyways. My MIL is 95, lives on her own and mind is sharp. However, I would not say this woman who was always happy go lucky feels that way anymore. She has lost all her children but my husband. Everyone who would have been her age are deceased, so Loneliness is the # 1 killer of the elderly. No matter how much we give our time it is never enough. I can't right now at 67 say I want my life to look like that just for the sake of a number.
So true my mother at 94 has out lived her husband all hers friends and their husbands and now is outliving her children, two of her children a grandson with stomach cancer, a great grand son w/ 7 months SIDS 💔 She’s amazing women very healthy and supper active takes two naps a day if she finds the time. No meds her medicine is sleep fresh food and love from children. Her days are not so happy go lucky she would love to go to sleep and never wake up and she would have lived a beautiful purposeful life . 🙏
Wonderful interview. Thank you. Maria has always been genuine in all her efforts. This will help all of us who care about our health and those of our families.❤️
My doctor, a woman, has admitted to me that she can't help me with my menopause symptoms because they didn't learn very much about that in med school. She doesn't know that hormone replacement therapy can stave off dementia, and bone loss, and heart disease and a variety of other illnesses.
@@anniea3261 That is really sad, that a female Dr, just because she 'didn't learn it in med school', wouldn't even be worried about her own health status to learn it on her own, or to even better help her patients. I hope you found a better Dr...
Yupppp...I've tried to see several doctors about my,pcos symptoms and th3y all same the same thing..lose weight n get on birth control..no shit if I could just lose weight I wouldn't be here rn
It's not just women. I get little to no preventive or causal advice from my PCP. Out of 9 issues he addressed three. sort of. Clock is ticking, hurry up, get out.
So informative, interesting, inspiring, and entertaining! Thank you both so much for everything you do to make this world a happier and healthier place!🙏💕🙏
I took vitamin D for past 14 years and optimized D to 75 range due to chronic illness. I walked every day for past 30 years. In addition, yoga for past 14 years and I was diagnosed with osteoporosis at age 62. I've been dairy, gluten, soy, sugar free for 14+ years. High nutrient dense my whole life. I now wonder if it was giving up dairy and not enough calcium. None of the functional med docs and NDs mentioned supplementing calcium.
I recently read somewhere supplementing calcium is a very bad idea as it feeds arteriosclerosis, heart valve calcium buildup, kidney stones, calcium buildup in the joints & eyes. Eating dairy is better and go with European brown cow products and better yet goat & sheep cheeses( they are 30% MCT oil), yogurt, kefir and take D3 (5k in summer, 10k winter) WITH K2 (100 dose). These ( the k2)vitamins direct the calcium into the bones and not the rest of the places I listed above.
Vit d plus k2 is impt. Can you add resistance training because building muscles build bones too. Get enough protein to feed your muscles for preservation and building of muscle. Apparently we need more of protein as we age. Look into Doctor Ken Berry for background on these items .
My hope is that Maria will work with Congress to pass a bill making insurers and all Medicare plans pay for in-person and telephone consultations with Functional doctors.
Anyone else notice blood tests always show normal, despite my real health issues. Nothing shows outside the normal range, yet with serious research/supplementation get better, much to my GP's surprise.
I have such mixed emotions about this interview, they’ve both used it as a selling platform. I’m okay with the Dr doing that because he’s dedicated so much useful information to us over the years. I genuinely love him. But when she mentions preventative care, oral health, hearing etc. I’m 60 years old and have health insurance for the first time in my entire life. The best we can do as poor people is our homework and follow through. Interesting ideas but sadly mainly for rich folks. Just keep doing your best. And thank you Dr. Hyman❤ I should also add that her parents accomplishments to our country are impressive. Names and money go a long way.
I’m 67 and just had my bloodwork done through conventional testing but my iron is also low and there was a flag regarding my kidney function. Would be wonderful if you would share the protocols you will be suggesting for Maria.
Getting enough sleep, fresh air, plenty of water, daily exercise, no stress and worry, no processed food and you are good to go. Also stay away from Toxins like chlorine in swimming pools and burning candles
So easy for those who have money to retire and just focus on health. Things did not go as I planned . I work til I drop. Try to be healthy. Easier with food than stress
Dr.Hyman, how can we access those optimal levels..... is there a reference or a book you’d recommend so we can compare our labs to the optimal level & not just the standard level that are already low. Many thanks!, I love your podcasts & learning a great deal! Maria Shriver you & Lisa Musconi are my new super heroes. Thank you for caring about women & being so open & genuine❤❤
What a great interview! Maria , thank you!! Dr. Hyman, Thank you too! Especially dealing with health issues for women! We ARE SO BEHIND re: Women's health, and even health issues w/the color of our skin! There are things that afflict some and not others, due to their race (as far as we know w/the technology and limited research done) This is great
you should interview dr ede and eating for your brain. for me animals fats have been amazing for my hormones and anxiety. also need to get sally fallon and eating as traditional diets
Dr Hyman Am always not feeling well and the doctors in Australia are not able find the medical issue with me so I get treated. Are you able to post the blood tests to be done. Am so disappointed with doctors in Australia 😔
They are not any better here in the us. If people are well there’s no money to be made. I went through this myself thirty five years ago. I was 37 and very sick went to 9 different medical drs. And then found a Chinese dr. Who was trained as a surgeon In Shanghai China and used his gift of tuina acupressure to give me a new life. I started working with him as I started getting stronger. Long story. Western drs. Do not understand chronic disease that’s why dr. Hyman reached into functional medicine to help himself. I have heard his personal story and that was mine too. Im stronger today at 76 than I was in my forties. Hope you find the help you need to live a long life.
Positive thoughts. Eat fruits and vegetables. No alcohol, weed or drugs that cross the blood brain barrier, walk surround yourself with positive people and create a healthy environment to live in no pollution. It's simple to do.
Current medical care is more reactive instead of pro active. Bio markers show significant signals of certain diseases months or years before developing the disease. Your average patient that is dependent on Medicare or health insurance coverage will not get the tests required to find out specific bio markers because it is not covered. It costs money to test and maintain this type of health numbers and not many can afford it.
I am 57 with Hashimotos, periodontal disease, and 6 years ago developed mal de debarquement syndrome after a plane ride so now I am dizzy 24/7 out of nowhere. I am not obese and go to the periodontist every 6 months since I was a teenager diagnosed with periodontal disease that is in my family. No one can tell me how to reverse all of this, but the doctors do give me the meds. Any insight would be appreciated. Yes, high cholesterol too. Again, most of my family has that, so I missed out on some of the good genetics I guess especially since my husband and I are plant based eaters.
WE DO DESERVE ANSWERS. I stopped telling my Drs. what was real for me 20 years ago because ALL they wanted to do was write a perscription! I know I have "markers" but that truth is not in my Senior budget.
Interesting listening to you Dr. question?? Why she need to eat meat for iron, I know many people who eat meat are Low on iron. I’m vegetarian and my iron level is perfect since I’m balance my diet,whole grains every day, veggies and two kind of proteins. What I had learned, iron doesn’t get absorb if there is no vitamin C. I hope dr Hyman can talk more about it.
Bottom line…. US healthcare is designed to treat you after you’re already sick. And that’s only if you have a somewhat easy to diagnose condition. If we truly wanted a healthier society we’d concentrate on PREVENTION! Unfortunately, that concept isn’t compatible with our capitalist system. Maria, I think both your parents would be incredibly proud of all the hard work you’ve done to better peoples’ lives! And caregiver to both of them, is an amazing feat! THANK YOU‼️
@@judeblake2534I did not think intelligence is actually essential for ensuring that you have good health but I would say that she's a pro Biden person if she follows in her family's footsteps-- with the exception of course of JFK Junior who is not a pro Biden person-- so that would be the defining Factor, not intelligence.
Omg… you are reading my mind… very worried about my brain… of late I don’t feel like myself physically and worried about it… I'm counting on you to have answers…
@@annemccarron2281 So true and that is what kept their husbands and families in positions of power in business and in politics (which is also a business).
I watched Dr Hyman on PBS and he talked about these issues before> But most people don't understand that US health care system is to make doctors/bigpharma rich. If you want to get better go to Chinese/Korean doctors who care!!
We have a great resource! Anthony William and as a health coach, I have been talking about this very topic for years! Our vax mandates have caused a lot of problems with our health. We are the CEO and our health is truly our wealth and responsibility ❤❤thank you ! Hope this bar is organic? Will check it out ❤
I live in rural America and I haven’t heard anything I haven’t heard before. Actually they repeat the same things over and over. Just read and listen to various doctors like Dr. Berg and others. It isn’t that difficult but family doctors aren’t educated in nutrition etc. Be your own advocate. Bioidentical hormones changed my life and I’m 70.
Mark, you're truly one of my heroes. I'm 57 and have never had a hero till now. With that said, this particular interview really disappointed me. I feel you were being cautious with Maria. She came on to talk about the billions being allotted for women's health care? Well, we all know how that'll turn out. Feeding an already ridiculous paridum. You know the answers without spending another buck. Let's get these women to start with that. We don't need any more talk or reactive health care. I realize it's a slippery slope when talking about the carnivore diet, but it's time we get real with these folks. Let me talk this moment to say, "Thank you, Mark!!!
Thank you Maria for allowing your blood work to be analyzed and discussed here. Women help women this way.
I've always appreciated that most of the Kennedy and Shriver family have spent their lives advocating and creating programs for those of us who don't have money or access for better living. Thanks to all ❤

Unfortunately too that there are some that are not really functional but still

I love her humanitarian heart. Maria is a passionate 😊advocate for mothers and children. I am a wife, mother and grandmother also, who wants to participate in this journey. Perhaps Mark might offer these services at cost for a population of folks. Financial considerations prevent many of us from access.
thank you for Dr Hyman!!!
Maria ti seguo da tanti e per me sei un grande esempio di eccellenza e sono felice e onorata di poterti sentire.Tanti auguri di ogni bene ad un'altra grande Kennedy ❤
So glad to hear that this is going on . I have been on this mission myself and am now close to 89 yrs. old and invery good shape and take no meds. I play tennis, tap dance, do yoga and go to the gym. I would be willing to get these blood tests that Maria has had . Does anyone know how to get this done.
I am so happy to see that there is now a conversation around preventing disease and not just taking medications for symptoms. Unfortunately,, until we really get our
metabolic health in order we will continue to see a rise in all diseases. Dr. Matt Phillips of NZ has been running clinical trials for Alzheimer's and Parkinsons using
the keto diet and has been able to reduce symptoms by allowing the mitochondria to heal and restore metabolic health. He believes all diseases are a result of
dysregulation of energy in the mitochondria and is at the root cause of all diseases.
Dr Hyman talks about the importance of healthy mitochondria all the time too. It is a primary theme in his most recent book.
@@jilljames178 Yes, but until Metabolic Therapy becomes standard of care and people become more informed about the mitochondria
we will never get to the root of the problem. You might want to check out Lauren Kennedy's channel Living Well With Schizophrenia
she is doing a Metabolic Keto diet and has put her mental illness Schizoaffective Disorder into remission after decades of suffering
debilitating symptoms in only two weeks and off of most of her medications.
I must say that joining the Function Health was one of the best decisions I made recently. I love the dashboard and the explanation on each marker is a great way for us out of the medical field to understand the results and how we can keep them optimal.
My biological age is -18 and on the way to improve that marker so I don't end up in bed for years as my grandmother, slowly fading away due to Alzheimer's.
Love it too! Found out so many important things. I've signed up for another year. Here's to good health!🎉❤
what did you learn and what changes did you make?
I LOVE MY FUNCTION HEALTH! I can’t say enough about all the bio markers I’ve been able to improve on and how much better I feel. Plus, I can reorder any time I want for less money.
@@e.a.miller6503 can you share what you discovered and what you did to improve?
Maria is so disarmingly honest, it blows me away. Thank you Maria and Dr. Hyman for your relentless efforts to help others💙💖
Hi, Dr. Hyman! i am absolutely curtain that you are healthier now, in compare to last year and years before. You just look so much better and healthier!
Extraordinary... awesome woman and person...few women are in that stellar level...
We should be learning about her and educating ourselves...
Thank you Maria for your wonderful work! ❤️ I love your family too. Whenever I think of Cape Cod and the national seashore I think of JFK. And whenever I walk through magnificent Grand Central Station, I think of Jackie. God bless!
I am so thankful for podcasts and videos like this and for books like The Mind Diet and other posts on The Sunday Paper that share valuable, proven data to try to help us have a fighting chance against this dreadful disease.
Paulamoore, so true. When he said we only change $500.00 a year to see your markers, I thought to myself "I'm out". I have to pay car insurance instead. Yeah, it's a good idea, just not affordable for most of us.
The best health interview with two brilliant minds, ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Maria - I think about how to age gracefully as I am currently taking care of my mom who just broke her hip three weeks ago! I tried your MOSH bars and woke up the next morning feeling amazing the next day! Thank you! I am totally hooked now! Mark thank you for all you do too! I have been following you for a long time and I am proud at how healthy and great I am at 60, so thank you for all you do!!!❤
Let's not hate on Bryan Johnson. What's wrong with wanting to be super healthy and live as long as possible? He's sharing all his findings. Granted, a lot of what he's doing is not affordable for most of us but the same can be said for functional medicine.
No one “hates” him. Strong word.
If your focus becomes solely on living longer, I find it hard to live for today. That's all we are promised anyways. My MIL is 95, lives on her own and mind is sharp. However, I would not say this woman who was always happy go lucky feels that way anymore. She has lost all her children but my husband. Everyone who would have been her age are deceased, so Loneliness is the # 1 killer of the elderly. No matter how much we give our time it is never enough. I can't right now at 67 say I want my life to look like that just for the sake of a number.
So true my mother at 94 has out lived her husband all hers friends and their husbands and now is outliving her children, two of her children a grandson with stomach cancer, a great grand son w/ 7 months SIDS 💔
She’s amazing women very healthy and supper active takes two naps a day if she finds the time. No meds her medicine is sleep
fresh food and love from children. Her days are not so happy go lucky she would love to go to sleep and never wake up and she would have lived a beautiful purposeful life . 🙏
I have so much respect for the very special Maria Shriver 🙏
God bless you Maria for your wonderful work!
Thank you, Dr. Hyman. I am learning alot from this podcast.
TWO EMPOWERING AND INNOVATIVE ADVOCATES OF HEALTH AND WELLNESS. TY!
Wonderful interview. Thank you. Maria has always been genuine in all her efforts. This will help all of us who care about our health and those of our families.❤️
Love Maria and she had Mark on her IG page. I didn’t know about his work, until Maria interviewed him. Both are a wealth of information!!!❤🙏
The medicine industry is STILL DISMISSIVE of women's health issues even in 2024
How ?
My doctor, a woman, has admitted to me that she can't help me with my menopause symptoms because they didn't learn very much about that in med school. She doesn't know that hormone replacement therapy can stave off dementia, and bone loss, and heart disease and a variety of other illnesses.
@@anniea3261 That is really sad, that a female Dr, just because she 'didn't learn it in med school', wouldn't even be worried about her own health status to learn it on her own, or to even better help her patients. I hope you found a better Dr...
Yupppp...I've tried to see several doctors about my,pcos symptoms and th3y all same the same thing..lose weight n get on birth control..no shit if I could just lose weight I wouldn't be here rn
It's not just women. I get little to no preventive or causal advice from my PCP. Out of 9 issues he addressed three. sort of. Clock is ticking, hurry up, get out.
She’s so well versed and has learned so much
We need health care for all Americans !!!! Today!
So informative, interesting, inspiring, and entertaining! Thank you both so much for everything you do to make this world a happier and healthier place!🙏💕🙏
Can you be specific on what we need to be done?
That’s exactly what happened to me..I watched my mother be put on tons of meds after 63. Not me, I run the other way which is working so far.
🌸🌸🌸What an inspirational and classy woman .🌸🌸🌸🌸
I took vitamin D for past 14 years and optimized D to 75 range due to chronic illness. I walked every day for past 30 years. In addition, yoga for past 14 years and I was diagnosed with osteoporosis at age 62. I've been dairy, gluten, soy, sugar free for 14+ years. High nutrient dense my whole life. I now wonder if it was giving up dairy and not enough calcium. None of the functional med docs and NDs mentioned supplementing calcium.
Soy gives you calcium. Soy is a staple for Asians, especially Japanese who do not consume a lot of dairy, but they do walk a lot.
I recently read somewhere supplementing calcium is a very bad idea as it feeds arteriosclerosis, heart valve calcium buildup, kidney stones, calcium buildup in the joints & eyes. Eating dairy is better and go with European brown cow products and better yet goat & sheep cheeses( they are 30% MCT oil), yogurt, kefir and take D3 (5k in summer, 10k winter) WITH K2 (100 dose). These ( the k2)vitamins direct the calcium into the bones and not the rest of the places I listed above.
Vit d plus k2 is impt.
Can you add resistance training because building muscles build bones too. Get enough protein to feed your muscles for preservation and building of muscle. Apparently we need more of protein as we age.
Look into Doctor Ken Berry for background on these items .
Now take D3 K2 and magnesium taute and krill oil …no calcium
I heard nobody should …take calcium..for women over 45 yrs
Loved listening to Maria Shriver!
Same!
My hope is that Maria will work with Congress to pass a bill making insurers and all Medicare plans pay for in-person and telephone consultations with Functional doctors.
They nvr will bc big Pharma runs big Gov. it’s a vicious cycle. Too much money in drug industry.
Thank you for sharing and all the honest information
💭💭 MARIA has the best hair 🤍
Anyone else notice blood tests always show normal, despite my real health issues. Nothing shows outside the normal range, yet with serious research/supplementation get better, much to my GP's surprise.
Most of us can not afford all this testing but doing a ketogenic/carnivore diet allows the body to heal itself.
I have such mixed emotions about this interview, they’ve both used it as a selling platform. I’m okay with the Dr doing that because he’s dedicated so much useful information to us over the years. I genuinely love him.
But when she mentions preventative care, oral health, hearing etc. I’m 60 years old and have health insurance for the first time in my entire life.
The best we can do as poor people is our homework and follow through.
Interesting ideas but sadly mainly for rich folks.
Just keep doing your best.
And thank you Dr. Hyman❤
I should also add that her parents accomplishments to our country are impressive. Names and money go a long way.
I’m 67 and just had my bloodwork done through conventional testing but my iron is also low and there was a flag regarding my kidney function. Would be wonderful if you would share the protocols you will be suggesting for Maria.
Thank you Maria for doing this
Getting enough sleep, fresh air, plenty of water, daily exercise, no stress and worry, no processed food and you are good to go.
Also stay away from
Toxins like chlorine in swimming pools and burning candles
😵💫How does the female body supply itself with major disease-protective estrogen once our bodies stop making it?
@@VivSeesCheck out Dr Brownstein regarding dietary iodine which is needed to produce all hormones, and which is deficient in so many people.
@@VivSees Best to use holistic method. Google for the natural herbs you may even be able to grow. Trust in the Lord for your every need.
I am on HRT AND HOPE I NEVER HAVE TO GO OFF OF IT. I AM 67 AND HRT has so many health benefits.
So easy for those who have money to retire and just focus on health. Things did not go as I planned . I work til I drop. Try to be healthy. Easier with food than stress
Dr.Hyman, how can we access those optimal levels..... is there a reference or a book you’d recommend so we can compare our labs to the optimal level & not just the standard level that are already low. Many thanks!, I love your podcasts & learning a great deal! Maria Shriver you & Lisa Musconi are my new super heroes. Thank you for caring about women & being so open & genuine❤❤
What a great interview! Maria , thank you!! Dr. Hyman, Thank you too! Especially dealing with health issues for women! We ARE SO BEHIND re: Women's health, and even health issues w/the color of our skin! There are things that afflict some and not others, due to their race (as far as we know w/the technology and limited research done) This is great
In Ireland gluten is a big problem. Stores carry many wheat free products.
Great discussion Maria
Wish he had let her speak more, and interrupted less.
you should interview dr ede and eating for your brain. for me animals fats have been amazing for my hormones and anxiety. also need to get sally fallon and eating as traditional diets
Who else is excited to see the change in her bloodwork results? The changes could be inspiring for many.
Dr Hyman
Am always not feeling well and the doctors in Australia are not able find the medical issue with me so I get treated. Are you able to post the blood tests to be done.
Am so disappointed with doctors in Australia 😔
They are not any better here in the us. If people are well there’s no money to be made. I went through this myself thirty five years ago. I was 37 and very sick went to 9 different medical drs. And then found a Chinese dr. Who was trained as a surgeon In Shanghai
China and used his gift of tuina acupressure to give me a new life. I started working with him as I started getting stronger. Long story. Western drs. Do not understand chronic disease that’s why dr. Hyman reached into functional medicine to help himself. I have heard his personal story and that was mine too. Im stronger today at 76 than I was in my forties. Hope you find the help you need
to live a long life.
Thank you Maria❤️❤️❤️❤️
So good. Just so good .
Thank you so much ! Really goog and important informations for women.
I really enjoyed this interview!❤
How to make insurance pay for these tests and alternative medicine drs
Excellent episode. Two great people. Thank you for sharing ur knowledge for the future generation
What is the most important thing to do to keep your Brain healthy? I have inflammation and Autoimmune desease.
Check out Dr Steven Gundry and Dr Bredesen, both experts in autoimmune and brain health.
Positive thoughts. Eat fruits and vegetables. No alcohol, weed or drugs that cross the blood brain barrier, walk surround yourself with positive people and create a healthy environment to live in no pollution. It's simple to do.
@@eileenwatt8283 Try an elimination diet and lots of patience. Some do not tolerate the sugar in fruit or certain vegetables. Good luck!
@@cathyowens1264Worst Dr ever
Carnivore diet.
Dr Berry.
Maria is so right, it is time issue, those of us with jobs cannot see multiple doctors even if insurance would cover it.
Where can I go to get the blood test you talk about I live in reading pa
Great info! Go Maria Yes we do not want to be a "normal" old person. Im 74 and I'm not normal! 😊
Exactly! We want to be OPTIMAL! Not normal...
Me too. 75 and definitely not normal 😂.
Amazing interview. What an important prospective.
Current medical care is more reactive instead of pro active. Bio markers show significant signals of certain diseases months or years before developing the disease. Your average patient that is dependent on Medicare or health insurance coverage will not get the tests required to find out specific bio markers because it is not covered. It costs money to test and maintain this type of health numbers and not many can afford it.
I am 57 with Hashimotos, periodontal disease, and 6 years ago developed mal de debarquement syndrome after a plane ride so now I am dizzy 24/7 out of nowhere. I am not obese and go to the periodontist every 6 months since I was a teenager diagnosed with periodontal disease that is in my family. No one can tell me how to reverse all of this, but the doctors do give me the meds. Any insight would be appreciated. Yes, high cholesterol too. Again, most of my family has that, so I missed out on some of the good genetics I guess especially since my husband and I are plant based eaters.
She is so nice and smart
WE DO DESERVE ANSWERS.
I stopped telling my Drs. what was real for me 20 years ago because ALL they wanted to do was write a perscription!
I know I have "markers" but that truth is not in my Senior budget.
Great interview
❤❤❤ with respect to Maria 👍
Interesting listening to you Dr. question?? Why she need to eat meat for iron, I know many people who eat meat are
Low on iron. I’m vegetarian and my iron level is perfect since I’m balance my diet,whole grains every day, veggies and two kind of proteins. What I had learned, iron doesn’t get absorb if there is no vitamin C. I hope dr Hyman can talk more about it.
Bottom line…. US healthcare is designed to treat you after you’re already sick. And that’s only if you have a somewhat easy to diagnose condition. If we truly wanted a healthier society we’d concentrate on PREVENTION! Unfortunately, that concept isn’t compatible with our capitalist system.
Maria, I think both your parents would be incredibly proud of all the hard work you’ve done to better peoples’ lives! And caregiver to both of them, is an amazing feat! THANK YOU‼️
How do we k ow who in our area does these blood test ? I need them
Did she get the covid vaccine or any other untested mRNA vaccines?
🙄
Good question.
She probably did because she’s an intelligent woman who wouldn’t fall for conspiracy theories.
@judeblake2534
🙄
@@judeblake2534I did not think intelligence is actually essential for ensuring that you have good health but I would say that she's a pro Biden person if she follows in her family's footsteps-- with the exception of course of JFK Junior who is not a pro Biden person-- so that would be the defining Factor, not intelligence.
Omg… you are reading my mind… very worried about my brain… of late I don’t feel like myself physically and worried about it… I'm counting on you to have answers…
I am a member of Function Health. My biological age is 18 years younger than my chronological age. I’m in my early 60’s.
Homocysteine very important..I took homocysteine resist from life extension my reading went from 10 to 6
People can say what they want but this family has done much so much to the country selflessly.
That's what rich people did back in the 50s. Women usually didn't work they kept themselves entertained by engaging in social causes.
yeah like pushing socialism and racial division.
@@annemccarron2281 So true and that is what kept their husbands and families in positions of power in business and in politics (which is also a business).
I watched Dr Hyman on PBS and he talked about these issues before> But most people don't understand that US health care system is to make doctors/bigpharma rich. If you want to get better go to Chinese/Korean doctors who care!!
We have a great resource! Anthony William and as a health coach, I have been talking about this very topic for years! Our vax mandates have caused a lot of problems with our health. We are the CEO and our health is truly our wealth and responsibility ❤❤thank you ! Hope this bar is organic? Will check it out ❤
I am wondering which lab are you using to detect mercury levels?
Great podcast!
I live in rural America and I haven’t heard anything I haven’t heard before. Actually they repeat the same things over and over. Just read and listen to various doctors like Dr. Berg and others. It isn’t that difficult but family doctors aren’t educated in nutrition etc. Be your own advocate. Bioidentical hormones changed my life and I’m 70.
How old were you when you started on bioidentical HRT, please?
💯!!! I've been on bio estrogen, progesterone, testosterone 15 years since a hysterectomy. Wouldn't have it any other way 💪
Mark, you're truly one of my heroes. I'm 57 and have never had a hero till now. With that said, this particular interview really disappointed me. I feel you were being cautious with Maria. She came on to talk about the billions being allotted for women's health care? Well, we all know how that'll turn out. Feeding an already ridiculous paridum. You know the answers without spending another buck. Let's get these women to start with that. We don't need any more talk or reactive health care. I realize it's a slippery slope when talking about the carnivore diet, but it's time we get real with these folks. Let me talk this moment to say, "Thank you, Mark!!!
Are you in favour of the Carnivore diet?
The cut off in most labs for CRP is less than 3, its not sensitive at this level yet, it used to be less than 10 , very non specific
