They also touch on the real-life practices of health gurus, emphasizing the importance of authenticity in wellness advice and how to avoid being mislead when looking to address root causes of perimenopause symptoms. Their conversation covers everything from managing stress, poor sleep and blood sugar to understanding the value of whole food sources of probiotics. Get ready to learn a wealth of strategies for well-being age 35 and beyond, without relying solely on pills that were never designed to address root causes in the first place.


They highlight the importance of fermented foods for gut health, emphasizing that these foods can provide more diverse probiotics than typical supplements.
