Listen Later

In this podcast episode, Louise and Amy discuss perimenopause myth-busting, health, and fitness nutrition for women aged 35 and over. They emphasize the misconception that perimenopause requires expensive lab work and elaborate healthcare teams, debunking the idea by promoting a simpler, lifestyle-based approach. The hosts stress the importance of understanding one's changing hormones and their impact on nutrition, stress management, lifestyle, and overall well-being. They advocate for addressing root causes through nutritionally sound, whole food-based strategies rather than relying solely on supplements and extensive lab work.
