Reclaim Your Health After 50: Andrea Nakayama’s Functional Formula

Aging with Purpose and Passion

Your body isn’t broken—it’s trying to talk to you.
But are you listening?

When Andrea Nakayama’s husband was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer while she was seven weeks pregnant, her world shattered. What happened next would spark a global movement in functional nutrition—and a new approach to midlife health and healing.

In this powerful episode of Aging With Purpose and Passion, Andrea shares how deep grief led her to reimagine wellness, build resilience, and teach thousands to trust their body’s wisdom.

You’ll learn:

🔹 Why one-size-fits-all health plans fail (and what works instead)
🔹 Andrea’s “3 roots, many branches” framework for lasting change
🔹 How to decode symptoms as messages—not flaws
🔹 What women over 50 can do right now to restore energy, balance, and clarity

Andrea’s story proves healing isn’t about perfection—it’s about partnership, personalization, and paying attention.
