1013. Mastering Women’s Health: Hormones, Guts & Smarter Workouts with Wellness Expert Christina Gomes
Hello Heal Squad! If you haven’t started crushing your 2025 goals, this episode will fire you up to make this your healthiest year yet. Today, Maria’s trainer, Christina Gomes, joins the squad to share game-changing insights on balancing nutrition and training during perimenopause, menopause, and even when it’s that time of the month. She’s unveiling the ultimate health plan to lower cortisol, balance hormones, and manage weight without over doing it. You’ll learn how to ditch the high-intensity workouts that might be doing more harm than good, and which exercises are highly effective for the always fluctuating women’s body.
Plus, we’re diving deep into gut health essentials—like the must-have foods to fuel your body and improve nutrient absorption. If you’ve been craving a reset or feeling out of sync with your body, this episode is your sign to take charge and thrive in 2025. Enjoy!
HEALERS & HEAL LINERS:
Higher intensity exercises are doing you more harm than good. Yes, you can lose weight with HIIT, but it will cause more stress on your body, which impacts your overall metabolism.
Women specifically suffer more from elevated cortisol levels, especially as they age, because their ability to resist cortisol and deal with stress is going to decline as our estrogen and progesterone decline. If you do have lower estrogen levels, there are certain foods that you can eat that can actually help us continue to produce a little bit more estrogen.
Your ability to absorb nutrients is going to heavily rely on the healthiness of your gut and your gut lining. A diet rich in fiber will ensure that your gut stays strong and healthy to absorb essential vitamins and nutrients.
