73. Menopause & Heart Health: The Hidden Risk No One Talks About with Dr. Sanjay Bhojraj

73. Menopause & Heart Health: The Hidden Risk No One Talks About with Dr. Sanjay Bhojraj

This episode is for you if you’re a menopausal woman and want to know what is important when it comes to heart and cardiovascular health to AGE STRONG! Menopausal women are at a higher risk of developing heart disease compared to men. This is primarily due to the decline in estrogen levels that occurs during menopause.

Dr. Sanjay Bhojraj is an Interventional Cardiologist and Certified Practitioner of the Institute for Functional Medicine. We were lucky enough to interview him at the 2025 Annual International Conference in San Diego, California.

Dr. Bhojraj also known as “the curious cardiologist” has a passion for integrating cutting-edge research with holistic health approaches. He helps patients achieve optimal well-being by addressing the root cause of disease! He is founder of Well12, a transformative 12-week wellness program that empowers individuals to reclaim their health through lifestyle changes.

We learn:

  • Why women often experience poor cardiovascular health as they age and how menopause plays a role
  • Why you may need an advanced cholesterol panel to determine whether you’re at risk for heart attack and stroke

  • How to know if you’re a candidate for statins

  • How cardiovascular disease has evolved over the years to be more metabolically driven

  • How toxic chemicals in our environment weaken cardiometabolic health

  • How direct-to-consumer lab testing like Function Health can help you determine your risks
