Rebellious Wellness Lifestyle
Rebellious Wellness Lifestyle
Podcast Description
Rebellious Wellness Lifestyle is for women over 50 who won't settle for the status quo on aging which includes multiple meds and fewer adventures.
Each week Greg brings you expert interviews, rants, and recommendations to help you live fully so you can age better.
Fake news about aging? Not here. Doom and gloom about what happens at your age? Girlfriend, please! How about proven health information that lives outside the mainstream media and always science based?
Why tune it? Because you know all about getting your steps and eating kale. It's time to talk about genetics, wearables, hacks, and hormones to name a few. And my podcast wouldn’t be complete without including what’s possible beyond the 5 senses.
Greg believes it's an act of rebellion to stand up for your right to choose conventional or alternative medicine, age appropriate clothes or your own combination of creativity and what feels good, and finally, to live without regrets.

Neurosurgeon Dr. Ravi Kumar returns to break down what the science actually says about melatonin — including a new study linking long-term use to heart failure — plus why popular sleep meds like Ambien and Benadryl come with hidden costs, his real sleep protocol (temperature, timing, screens), and two blood tests you should ask for once in your life: Lp(a) and ApoE4.
In this episode:
- Why Dr. Kumar generally doesn’t recommend melatonin as a nightly sleep aid — and when it actually helps
- The correct melatonin dose (hint: it’s a fraction of what’s on most labels)
- Why up to 80% of melatonin supplements don’t contain what the bottle says — and what certification to look for
- What the new melatonin/heart failure study does and doesn’t prove
- The real risks of Z-drugs (Ambien, Lunesta) and antihistamine sleep aids (Benadryl, Tylenol PM)
- Dr. Kumar’s 5-step sleep protocol: screens, showers, socks, room temp, and CBT-I
- What Lp(a) is, why it’s genetic and untestable by diet, and why you only need to check it once
- ApoE4 and Alzheimer’s risk — and why genetics isn’t destiny
