The Metabolism Shift | Episode 2 I It's Not You. It's Your Estrogen.

Summary This episode explores the hormonal and metabolic changes women experience during perimenopause, explaining why traditional diet and exercise strategies often fail and what new approaches can support health and weight management. Key Topics Hormonal timeline and its impact on metabolism The domino effect of hormonal decline: progesterone, estrogen, insulin, fat, cortisol Why traditional weight loss strategies fail after 40 The role of estrogen in fat storage and insulin sensitivity Impact of alcohol, cardio, and restriction on hormonal health Takeaways Perimenopause begins years before menopause and affects metabolism. Hormonal shifts, especially in progesterone and estrogen, drive changes in sleep, appetite, fat storage, and stress response. Traditional diets and exercise routines often fail because they don't account for hormonal changes. Understanding the hormonal cascade helps tailor effective strategies for women over 40.
