In this episode of Revolution Health Radio, Chris examines research confirming that menopause-related brain fog is real, measurable, and reversible. He explains how gray and white matter changes, blood-flow disruption, inflammation, and declining estrogen impact cognitive function during perimenopause and menopause. He also highlights the critical role of the gut microbiome in regulating estrogen metabolism and influencing brain health, and provides listeners with a comprehensive, root-cause approach to improving memory, focus, and clarity through diet, exercise, stress management, sleep, targeted nutrients, and gut-supportive strategies.

In this episode we discuss:

• New research revealing reductions in gray matter, white matter hyperintensities, and altered blood flow during menopause
• Core drivers of brain fog – reduced cerebral blood flow, chronic inflammation, and estrogen decline
• The gut-brain-hormone connection and how the estrobolome influences circulating estrogen
• Strategies for supporting brain health, including a nutrient-dense diet, physical activity, stress management, and sleep.
• Which nutrients, foods, and botanicals may help support brain health during menopause

Seed oils have become one of the most controversial topics in nutrition, especially after a 2024 University of South Florida study linked high omega-6 levels with inflammation in colon tumors. In this episode of Revolution Health Radio, Chris takes a deep, evidence-based look at what the study actually means — and what it doesn't. You'll learn the crucial difference between naturally occurring omega-6 fats in whole foods like nuts, chicken, and avocados and oxidized omega-6 fats found in ultra-processed foods and industrial seed oils. He explains why awareness of the omega-6 to omega-3 ratio and the issues of the modern Western diet are far more important than demonizing individual oils and offers practical advice on which cooking oils to use, which to limit, how to improve omega-3 intake, and how to adopt a balanced approach to dietary fats without fear or obsession.

In this episode we discuss:

• What researchers actually found in the University of Florida study
• Why oxidation and processing are the real problems
• Whole food sources vs industrial seed oils
• What really matters when it comes to the omega-6 to omega-3 ratio
• The importance of avoiding obsession and social isolation
• Recommendations on which oils to use and those to avoid
• How you can improve your Omega-3 intake
