This week Di and Nicola chat to the incredibly dynamic, Zora Benhamou. Zora is a gerontologist and biohacker, who’s an expert in longevity and how to optimise your health. More recently, Zora has specialised in menopause and she loves to educate, support and empower women to transform their physiology and menopause experience. Not only that, Zora is a mother to 2 amazing adult children and a true global citizen - travelling the world as a digital nomad with her husband Franck (who you’ll hear all about in this chat). She also happens to be a girlfriend of Di and Nicola who they were lucky enough to meet in Phuket. 

In this episode Zora shares some fascinating research about how we can improve our healthspan and live happier, healthier lives through focusing on our personal relationships. We chat about the impact of loneliness on our health and why connection is vital for longevity. 

Zora also talks about biohacking menopause and gives us the lowdown on the important role hormones play in so many aspects of our health and why we need to focus on getting them in balance. 

We ask Zora about a cheeky challenge she participated in, where she had sex every day for 30 days and what she learnt about herself (and her husband) in the process. This led to a hilarious discussion about the benefits of spermidine, and we could not stop giggling. 

Zora is such a bundle of energy and has a wealth of knowledge about so many topics. We had the best time chatting to her and we hope you enjoy our giggles and laugh along with us.
