Medical & Health

11/11/2025

Yesterday was a historical day in women’s health. The outdated ‘black box’ on hormone therapy is finally being removed.

At BioLounge, Jeff Grimm, NP-C, has been supporting women with HRT for more than a decade. Research has repeatedly shown that the benefits of HRT for women in perimenopause and menopause far outweigh the risks, and the impacts on longterm health in the second chapter of life are tremendous.

The clip we’ve shared is from that Jeff did almost a year ago.

We believe in the power of HRT as it has been shown to protect brain health, bone health, cardiovascular health; reduce the risk of certain cancers; and improve mood and sleep - even for those with a history of breast cancer.

We hope the recent news reassures those who had previous concerns about the safety of HRT.

At BioLounge, we offer patient assessments and blood work to determine if HRT is right for you. Give us a call to learn more: 970.770.1655.

🌱 Ingredients:

* 1 pound boneless, skinless organic chicken breasts

According to research, matcha tea extracts can kill breast cancer stem cells because matcha is PACKED with POLYPHENOLS. It’s also a good source of dietary fiber.

✅ Studies have shown that matcha tea - specifically its polyphenolic compounds like epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) can inhibit the propagation of breast cancer stem cells (CSCs), which are responsible for tumor recurrence and metastasis.

But the benefits of polyphenols go beyond breast cancer prevention. In addition, they feed beneficial gut bacteria, lower inflammation, and switch on your body’s own defense systems—supporting both gut health and whole-body resilience.

Research shows that polyphenols help:

➡️ Reduce oxidative stress

➡️ Protect brain and cardiovascular tissue

➡️ Support detoxification

➡️ Calm inflammation at the source

You’ll find them in:

🫐Berries (especially blueberries, blackberries, and cranberries)

🍫Cocoa and dark chocolate

🍵 Green tea, black tea, matcha

🍇 Grapes

🫒Extra virgin olive oil

🌿 Herbs and spices like turmeric, rosemary, and oregano

🥬 Vegetables like red onions, kale, and purple sweet potatoes

In short, polyphenols feed the right microbes, nudging your gut toward a healthier balance.

Check out our full blog (link in bio). And consider swapping that daily coffee for a matcha tea, and reap the benefits of polyphenols.

Beyond its role in libido and muscle mass, testosterone supports metabolism, mood, brain function, bone health, cardiovascular health, and overall vitality.

➡️ While age-related decline plays a role, many patients experience low testosterone due to lifestyle factors that are often PREVENTABLE and REVERSIBLE.

❓What drives low testosterone?

✅ Chronic Stress

✅ Sleep Loss

✅ Nutrient Deficiencies

✅ Environmental Toxins

✅ Metabolic Disfunction and Insulin Resistance

❓When is testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) appropriate?

➡️ When lifestyle interventions are not enough, TRT can be a valuable tool. It may improve:

✨ Energy, mood, and cognitive performance

✨ Muscle mass, bone density, and strength

✨ Insulin sensitivity and blood sugar control

✨ Libido and sexual function

TRT works best when paired with addressing root causes. Without optimizing sleep, nutrition, stress, toxin exposure, and metabolic health, TRT alone may not deliver full long-term benefit.

Comprehensive evaluation and ongoing monitoring are key for safe and effective therapy.

Schedule a visit at Biolounge for a comprehensive evaluation. When appropriate, our team can incorporate advanced testing, including hormone optimization, micronutrient analysis, toxin burden assessment, and metabolic testing - to build a personalized plan that supports your long-term hormonal health and overall viability.
