How To Optimize Hormones to Live Longer and Stronger w/ Dr. Elizabeth Yurth (S1 EP06)

Hormones play a critical role in longevity, yet many people only begin addressing them when it’s already too late. In this episode, Juliet Hahn sits down with Dr. Elizabeth Yurth, the dynamic co-founder and Chief Medical Officer of Boulder Longevity Institute. With more than 30 years of clinical experience and dual board certifications in Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation and Regenerative Medicine, Dr. Yurth shares her remarkable journey: from growing up in a family that rarely visited doctors, to working with elite athletes, and ultimately pioneering a new approach to cellular and longevity medicine.

Juliet Hahn and Dr. Elizabeth Yurth delve into the shortcomings of conventional medicine, the promise of alternative approaches, and Dr. Yurth’s bold leap into founding a holistic clinic that is reshaping orthopedic and longevity care. Their conversation covers the nuances of women’s health, hormone replacement therapy, and how nontraditional modalities can optimize wellbeing at every stage of life for both women and men.

Beyond science, Dr. Yurth offers practical advice: the importance of social connection, cultivating a sense of purpose, and the foundational supplements she recommends for lasting vitality. She also shares her excitement for the future of medicine, including the role of AI in Medicine.
