Could your daily habits be secretly speeding up aging, draining your energy, and clouding your mind without you even realizing it? In this episode, we’re exposing oxidative stress, the hidden force quietly damaging your cells and fast-tracking everything from dull skin and fatigue to chronic disease. 

In today’s episode, I’m joined by Dr. Nayan Patel, one of the leading voices on cellular health, to break down the science, reveal the most common triggers, and show you exactly how these “invisible” stressors fly under your radar until it’s too late.

You’ll learn the early warning signs that most people ignore, why even healthy habits can backfire, and what every woman should know about staying ahead of the aging curve—long before health issues set in. We’re simplifying the science so you can spot trouble early, protect your health, and make choices that really move the needle.

You’ll walk away feeling empowered instead of overwhelmed, with a clear action plan for younger, stronger cells (and glowing skin to match). Ready to find out what’s really behind your fatigue and how to fix it before it costs you? Hit play and let’s dive in.

If this resonates and you’d like to dive deeper into glutathione (the master antioxidant) and how it can help slow aging and fight disease, grab a copy of Dr. Patel’s book The Glutathione Revolution here.
