In early 2023, her podcast with Kurt Aeschbacher went online on Blick.ch in Switzerland: "Zwäg hoch Zwei – the short podcast for a long life," addressing topics related to healthy aging from a popular science perspective.

In 2021, she published her work: "„Verjüngung ist möglich. Wissenschaftlich erforscht – was wirklich hilft." 2022 saw the release of "Das Verjüngungskochbuch. 60 Rezepte für gesunde Langlebigkeit – auf dem neuesten Stand der Forschung." In 2023, she published "Der Verjüngungsplan: Mit 70 Rezepten aus den 25 besten Anti-Aging-Superfoods" (all titles by Graefe+Unzer). All four books quickly made it to the SPIEGEL bestseller list.
