Show notes
In this episode of The Revital Health Podcast, Jodi Duval sits down with Dr Nayan Patel, clinical pharmacist, founder of Auro Wellness, and author of The Glutathione Revolution, for a deep conversation on hormone health, personalised medicine, glutathione and cellular resilience.Hormone health is one of the most talked-about topics in health right now, but also one of the most misunderstood. With so much information circulating around HRT, menopause, testosterone, progesterone, oestrogen, peptides and “optimal ranges”, it can be difficult to know what is genuinely useful and what is simply noise.Dr Patel brings a pharmacist’s precision to the conversation, explaining why hormone therapy should never be treated as a one-size-fits-all solution. Instead of chasing numbers alone, he encourages a more outcome-focused approach that considers symptoms, physiology, lifestyle, stress, insulin, thyroid function, hormone metabolism and long-term health goals.In this episode, we explore:Why hormone health is not just about replacing what is “low”The problem with chasing ideal numbers without considering outcomesWhy progesterone can be such an important balancing hormoneThe role of cortisol, insulin and thyroid in the hormone pictureWhy men and women need different hormone conversationsThe risks of using hormones or peptides without changing lifestyle foundationsWhy oxidative stress matters for hormones, ageing and repairWhat glutathione does in the bodyHow glutathione supports antioxidant defence and conjugation pathwaysWhy delivery of glutathione is so challengingDr Patel’s work with topical glutathione delivery technologyWhy “more” is not always better when it comes to antioxidant supportHow food, sleep, stress, water and environmental load influence cellular healthThis episode is a reminder that true health optimisation is not about outsourcing your health to a single product, prescription or test result. It is about understanding the body’s signals, reducing the noise, and supporting the foundations that allow the body to do what it is designed to do.Learn more about Revital Health:Revital HealthLearn more about Dr Nayan Patel and Auro Wellness:Auro WellnessDr Nayan Patel’s book:The Glutathione RevolutionDisclaimer: This podcast is for educational purposes only and does not replace personalised medical advice.
