    Are you wondering about how your hormones change during menopause?

    In this episode, we learn how hormonal changes, particularly declines in estrogen and progesterone, affect muscle mass, abdominal fat, and mood, and discover practical steps you can take to counter these effects.

    From increasing protein intake to engaging in resistance exercises, we share evidence-based strategies to help you maintain a healthier, more balanced lifestyle during this transformative phase.

    This episode goes beyond the basics of weight management to explore the intricate relationship between nutrition, hormones, and menopause. Discover how simple lifestyle changes—like regular walking, stress reduction techniques, and mindful eating—can effectively manage insulin levels and combat insulin resistance.

    We offer practical dietary advice, including the benefits of intermittent fasting and the importance of avoiding hidden sugars, to help you maintain balanced blood sugar levels and support overall well-being.

    Finally, we delve into the critical roles of cortisol, leptin, thyroid hormone, and testosterone in regulating body function and weight. We discuss how chronic stress and refined sugars can disrupt these hormones, and gain valuable tips on stress management, from meditation to professional help.
