Longevity for modern women isn't about doing more—it's about choosing what matters.

Today with Dr. Vincent Pedre — an integrative physician, gut-health expert, and author of The GutSMART Protocol.

We connect meditation, mitochondria, and gut integrity into one aligned approach. You'll learn why "leaky gut" is nuanced (not clickbait), how microplastics quietly erode your defenses, when biohacking tips into cellular overdrive, and why breastfeeding + active detox don't belong in the same season. Expect calm clarity and practical shifts that respect female biology, nervous-system health, and real life.

WE TALK ABOUT:

08:16 - How meditation changed a Type-A med student into "the Zen guy" and why calm doctors save lives

16:50 - Antibiotics, IBS, and the personal gut-health journey that shaped a career

19:35 - Food shifts that actually help: Organic eating, fermented foods, and L-glutamine to "seal and heal"

22:10 - "Leaky gut" clarified: Imperfect tests, useful clues, and what to measure

25:30 - Microplastics from hot coffee cups and takeout: how they damage the gut's mucus layer

28:15 - Wellness without rigidity: The 80/20 that reduces stress

33:55 - Mitochondrial testing insights: When high-performers are actually over-driving their cells

40:10 - Building a truly low-toxin coffee and why micro-habits drive macro health

45:00 - Coffee enemas for migraines and detox: what the clinician actually sees

51:14 - Sauna for longevity and detox: Dose, frequency, and why infrared helps

58:00 - Breastfeeding + detox: Why mobilizing toxins is a no for now

1:03:55 - Why medicine should be gut-centric before anything "muscle-centric"
