The Thyroid Fixer

429. Causes of Weight Gain and Fatigue in Midlife


Listen Later

Let's take a deep dive into what's causing weight gain and fatigue, especially as we transition into our forties, fifties, and beyond. If you're finding that what worked in your twenties and thirties just isn't cutting it anymore, you're not alone. I recently attended the Health Optimization Summit in London, where top experts like Mindy Peltz and Dr. Stephanie Estima shed light on the significant changes our bodies undergo in midlife. We're talking about hormonal shifts, thyroid downregulation, increased stressors, and even environmental toxins. Each of these plays a critical role in our ever-elusive weight loss journeys.

In this episode of The Thyroid Fixer Podcast, I break down the essential first steps to tackling stubborn fat. Optimizing your thyroid is crucial because it's the master metabolic switch that affects everything from insulin regulation to detoxification. I dive into the specifics—like keeping your fasting insulin below six and understanding how substances like Berberine can help control your blood sugar levels. We’ll also explore how sleep, hydration, and even your thoughts play into the complex puzzle of fat loss. Let’s get into the nitty-gritty of it all and set you up for success in the second half of life. Ready to tap into your best, leaner, stronger self? This episode is your guide to making it happen.
