3 Ways You Can Outsmart Perimenopause With a Genetic Test


Listen Later

Feeling like you’ve tried everything to feel better in perimenopause — but your body isn’t getting the memo? You’re not alone. Mood swings, stubborn weight, brain fog, and hormonal chaos are common symptoms… but they don’t always respond to standard protocols. That’s where genetic testing can completely shift the game.

In this episode, I’m sharing how your genes hold the blueprint for feeling better — and why knowing your unique genetic tendencies helps you stop guessing and finally start healing. We’ll break down 3 key pathways that a functional genetic test reveals, and how they impact everything from energy to hormone balance to aging well.

🔍 You’ll Learn:
  • Why your clean eating, workouts, and supplements might not be working (yet)
  • The 3 foundational genetic pathways to investigate if you’re in perimenopause
  • How detoxmethylation, and inflammation shape your symptoms — and what to do when they’re not optimized
  • The real reason your lab work looks "normal" but you still feel off
  • How to use your genetic data to personalize your nutrition, supplements, and lifestyle once and for all
🧬 What We Cover:
