Did you know ovarian health is more than just about fertility? Jess Berman, Chief Marketing Officer at BodyBio—a company founded by her family to support health through high-quality supplements—shared her personal health journey, especially with PCOS, and how committing to ovarian health and mitochondrial support transformed her life. Turns out, keeping those ovaries happy is key to preventing issues like heart disease and dementia later on. Jess makes it all feel so doable—small shifts in our daily habits can have a lasting impact.
We also got into the inner workings of mitochondria, those little powerhouses in our cells, and why they’re so crucial in the ovaries for energy levels and overall vitality. Jess breaks down the effects of toxins on these cells and shares practical tips on detoxing from heavy metals and endocrine disruptors—things that often slip under our radar but can be a big part of feeling our best. She lets us in on essential nutrients like phosphatidylcholine and healthy fats that make a real difference at the cellular level.
And for anyone ready to take these tips to the next level, Jess has shared a discount code “DrAnna” for BodyBio products to help you get started. If you’re also looking for a natural boost, try my Mighty Maca Plus blend—it’s packed with over 30 ingredients designed to support hormones and energy levels.

Memorable Quotes:
"I'll let you in on a little industry knowledge behind the scenes. Most supplement manufacturers are contract manufacturers. It's some big conglomerate and people walk up and they can just say, this is what I want. They don't know what testing they need." [00:19:27] – Jess Berman
"Lifestyle is a huge part of it. Get out in the sun, be grounding, be eating seasonal kind of foods, not stuff that you shouldn't be eating. really taking a look at what you're putting in the body. From a supplement perspective, for fertility in particular, it's still that flooding the body with fats." [00:33:23] – Jess Berman
