Are "anti-aging" interventions misleadingly oversimplified, and what does the science actually say about their impact on real longevity? 

In this episode of the Vibrant Wellness podcast, host Dr. Emmie Brown is joined by Dr. Kyle Gillett, founder of Gillett Health and a leader in holistic, evidence-based longevity medicine. Dr. Gillett brings his expertise in hormone and peptide therapies, preventive medicine, sports medicine, and genomics to the table, offering a masterclass in designing individualized health plans for anti-aging, or more precisely, healthy longevity.

The conversation takes a deep dive into the nuances and common misconceptions around hormone therapy, particularly the debate over bioidentical versus synthetic hormones and the importance of context in interpreting society guidelines. Dr. Gillett is candid about the pitfalls of oversimplifying anti-aging interventions and highlights the sophistication needed to personalize care, especially when using hormone replacement or peptide protocols. For practitioners seeking to elevate their approach to longevity medicine, this episode is a treasure trove of actionable wisdom.

Key Takeaways from Today’s Episode:

📌 Use all hormone testing modalities together for a comprehensive clinical view.

📌 Customize lab panels and treatments based on each patient's specific health goals.

📌 Lifestyle interventions remain more impactful than peptides or medication for longevity.

📌 Safety and proper screening are critical before starting peptide therapies.

📌 Avoid cookie-cutter protocols—personalization is key for vibrant wellness.

Unlock the hidden drivers of unexplained infertility with fresh, actionable insights that bridge functional medicine, nutrition, and cutting-edge environmental health. This episode is essential for clinicians navigating women’s health and reproductive wellness.

Today, Dr. Emmie Brown, ND, engages in a deep-dive conversation with Macy Coleman, a board-certified registered dietitian and women's health, hormone, and fertility specialist. Drawing from both her professional expertise and personal health journey, Macy shares how dismissed and unresolved symptoms led her from conventional clinical roles into the realm of functional and integrative medicine.

Macy explores the root causes of unexplained infertility, highlighting factors often overlooked in standard practice. She emphasizes how gut health issues, immune problems, toxic environmental exposures, poor nutrition, and hormonal imbalances can significantly affect reproductive outcomes. She also shares clinical insights on recognizing subtle symptoms that may come before abnormal lab results and explains how high heavy metal or mycotoxin levels can be major contributors to subfertility—often leading to notable improvements when properly managed.

Key Takeaways from Today’s Episode:

📌 Gut health and immune balance are often at the root of unexplained infertility.

📌 Heavy metal and mycotoxin burden can be dramatic "needle movers" for fertility.

📌 Addressing the vaginal and uterine microbiome is vital for persistent infertility.

📌 Detox should always begin with opening drainage pathways, not just adding supplements.

📌 Probiotics work best when guided by testing; one-size-fits-all rarely applies.
