Hormones, Hope, and Healing: A Patient’s Journey Back to Himself
What if you didn’t have to feel tired, in pain, or invisible anymore? In this powerful episode of Your Health University Podcast host Jamie Preston sits down with Nurse Practitioner Brooke Howard and patient of Your Health, Louie McKenzie to explore the life-changing impact of Biote Hormone Replacement Therapy. Louie, a former steel mill worker who thought he was dying at 48, shares how Biote helped him go from debilitating joint pain and insulin injections to pain-free living—and even muscle growth. Brooke, who runs the Biote program at Your Health and is a Biote patient herself, explains the science behind hormone optimization and why it’s transforming lives. This is more than medicine. It’s about helping people get their lives back.
