In perimenopause, the 5-10 year period before our cycle stops entirely (menopause) it might feel like all the things that used to work for you don't work anymore, and your body just isn't responding like it used to. As our estrogen and progesterone levels begin to get off balance and decline, it has a big impact on our recovery, our body temperature, sleep, body fat, muscle and so much more. Today I'm exploring the strategies you can use to mitigate some of these symptoms, build more strength and lose body fat, support a healthy gut microbiome and so much more!
In this episode I'm exploring...
⭐️ What happens to our hormones in perimenopause
⭐️ Exploring hormone balancing strategies like supplements and creams
⭐️ The impact of the stress response, and why it hits us harder in perimenopause
⭐️ The interplay between insulin and estrogen, and why sugar has a bigger impact than ever
⭐️ The importance of supporting a healthy gut microbiome and the estrobolome
⭐️ The most important things to include in your diet in perimenopause
