Anastasis Tzanis Reversing the Toll of Autoimmune and Heart Stress Without the Cycle of Endless Meds (for women 40+).

From Greece to New York to London, I served in the Greek Special Forces as a paratrooper for 1-year, traded currency derivatives in New York and then London for 7 years and picked up a couple of other dopamine-driven hobbies along the way! During my time working in banking, I noticed how detrimental stress can be on our bodies – leading to stiffness, early ageing, and injury, which led me to begin studying yoga & nutritional therapy in 2009.

Even the minimum consumption of artificial sweeteners is linked with liver cancer.

This study: a. creates “fear based” headlines b. delivers a clear message to those arguing artificial sweeteners are innocent.

Hundreds of other factors though affect liver cancer. Those that try to stay disease-free exclusively through their diet - yes : should be very cautious.

Those with a strong metabolism however are playing a different game & thus may be less affected.

Your liver can turn estrogen into something that directly damages DNA. Here’s how to know if that’s happening.

It has nothing to do with the 2:16 ratio test from the last episode. Some estrogen breaks down into reactive molecules called quinones, which can bond directly with DNA. That bond is unstable, so the affected DNA base eventually falls out, leaving a gap that’s prone to being repaired incorrectly. That’s the kind of mutation that can initiate cancer. In one study, women at high risk for breast cancer, and women already diagnosed, had measurably higher levels of these byproducts relative to their protective estrogen metabolites than healthy women. (PMID: 21556245)

This is a separate detox pathway worth supporting, whatever your ratio test says.

There’s a popular hormone test that claims to tell you your breast cancer risk. Here’s what it actually measures, and what it doesn’t.

Your liver breaks estrogen down two different ways. One route produces a weaker byproduct (2-hydroxyestrone). The other produces a stronger one that stays active longer (16α-hydroxyestrone). The “2:16 ratio” test measures the balance between the two, on the idea that more of the weaker one is safer. But when researchers reviewed nine studies testing whether this ratio actually predicts who gets breast cancer, it didn’t hold up as a reliable predictor. (PMID: 21339936)

That doesn’t mean supporting the healthier pathway is pointless. It means the test isn’t a diagnosis. It’s one data point, not an answer. Next episode covers a different pathway the review itself pointed to.

Why the exact same sleeping pill can knock one woman out and barely touch another. The answer isn’t in her head — it’s in her liver.

Women and men break down drugs differently for several real reasons: women digest more slowly, clear the kidneys more slowly, and carry more body fat relative to muscle, which changes how long a drug stays active. A liver enzyme called CYP3A4, responsible for metabolizing over half of all prescription drugs, is actually more active in women. That sounds like it should mean faster clearance. But with the sleep medication zolpidem, women had about 30% higher drug exposure and slower recovery afterward, and researchers haven’t pinned down exactly why. (PMID: 34580385)

The point isn’t that one s*x processes drugs “better.” It’s that s*x-based dosing is a real, measurable variable, not something to guess at.

If a medication has ever hit you harder than expected, that’s worth flagging to your provider, not brushing off as “just your body.”

Prebiotics - Fibre - Salad - … these are what most nutritionist suggest you focus on.

Anxiety, low mood, poor focus and brain fog are usually treated as problems of willpower or circumstance. But part of the story is written in your genes.

🧬 ᴡʜᴀᴛ ᴛʜɪꜱ ᴍᴀᴘ ꜱʜᴏᴡꜱ?
23 genes, - once you sequence your DNA you can find out what predisposition you have for mental challenges:
⚡ Some genes control how quickly you clear stress chemicals like dopamine and adrenaline
🌊 Some shape how well you calm a busy mind
💭 Some affect how well you form and hold on to memories

Carrying a variant doesn’t mean you’ll develop a condition. It means your brain has a particular tendency, and knowing it shows where nutrition, lifestyle and support will make the biggest difference.

Until now, these reports have only been available to my clients. That’s about to change, and ᴛʜᴇ ꜰɪʀꜱᴛ ʙᴀᴛᴄʜ ɪꜱ ʟɪᴍɪᴛᴇᴅ.

I did my 1st half at Battersea Park today. This area of London caries a lot of memories for me as it was where my son lived when he moved to London when he was 4. ♥️

Today he was the first to know I finished!

I found the race challenging to manage mentally but I am very happy I participated.

ps: Battersea power station is really impressive. The architecture is stunning & river views 🤩.

Today while introducing a client to some basic concepts of breathwork, he told me there are two schools of thought:
- the ones that encourage breathing faster and try to get in as much oxygen as possible
- the other ones that promote slower softer breathing

He mentioned James Nestor. He also said that there is this Irish guy that suggests that.

My response was that, while there is such a split, they BOTH have an equally myopic understanding of breathing.

The reason is that they breathe for the sake of breathing and thus there is little carryover to other activities. 

If performing breathing exercises in an armchair, whether you are breathing:
a. As if you are having an or**sm, or 
b. Trying to impersonate Buddha, 

will have little to no effect on your metabolism, let alone in activities that involve physical exertion.

What do you think is a good breathing exercise to improve your metabolism?
