Do you really need cold plunges, expensive supplements and the latest wearable to live a longer, healthier life? Dr Ginni Mansberg says probably not.

In this episode, Amelia sits down with GP, author and women’s health expert Dr Ginni Mansberg to cut through the increasingly noisy world of longevity and uncover what actually moves the needle.

Drawing on her new book, The Women’s Longevity Handbook, Ginni explains why she believes “biohacking is a bust” and why the less glamorous fundamentals may ultimately matter far more.

They unpack the things women can start doing in their 40s, 50s and beyond to protect their future health, from maintaining muscle and bone to reducing cardiovascular risk, protecting brain health and navigating menopause.

They also explore where menopausal hormone therapy fits into the longevity conversation, how much control we really have over our risk of dementia, and why looking after yourself in midlife isn’t selfish — it’s an investment in the people who rely on you, too.

And if the whole longevity conversation leaves you feeling like there are another 25 things you need to add to your to-do list, Ginni brings it right back to basics: what are the few things you could start doing now that your 80-year-old self will genuinely thank you for?

In this episode:
The fundamentals that have the biggest impact on living longer and healthier
Why muscle and bone become so important in midlife, and how to exercise when you hate it
What women need to know about heart disease and cardiovascular risk
How much of our future dementia risk may be modifiable
Menopause, hormones and where MHT fits into healthy ageing
Why self-care in midlife is anything but selfish
The three things Ginni wants women to prioritise for their future selves
