This rings true! Feels like hormones are running the show more than we realize sometimes. Appreciate the straightforward take. What’s one everyday adjustment you recommend most for keeping things steadier?

Dr Hameed is an amazing doctor, helping so many people control their weight and their hormones. I am excited to read her new book ‘Signals.’ 👏💖

Back pain treatments usually focus on easing the ache. A new injectable gel is aiming to fix the problem at its source 🦴💉

The discs between the bones in your spine act like shock absorbers, but injuries and aging can wear them down over time, often leading to chronic back pain.

Scientists are developing a hydrogel that can be injected into damaged discs to help repair the tissue and bring back some of their original structure. In a 2024 study, researchers tested it on damaged human spinal discs outside the body and saw encouraging gains in disc height and how well the discs handled pressure.

It’s still early. The gel needs more research and clinical trials before doctors can use it regularly, but if it pans out, it could someday help people heal their discs instead of living with the pain.
