441. Should You Limit Carbs in Perimenopause & Menopause?
You know that in midlife you’re supposed to increase your protein consumption, focus on produce, drink more water and watch your sugar. But what about carbs? Are they really the villain that mainstream fitness and nutrition media has made them out to be?
Listener Lynell asks: “I always thought whole grains like oatmeal, whole grain bread and brown rice were complex carbs and had nutrition, but I’ve heard advice to limit all carbs if you’re menopausal. What’s the truth and then how many servings of carbs a day do you recommended?”
In this quick episode I’m joined again by Dr. Federica Amati, Head Nutritionist for the personalized health company, Zoe, and author of Recipes for a Better Menopause and Every Body Should Know This. When it comes to knowing exactly how to eat best during midlife, she’s the expert! Take a listen as we dive into some ever-confusing carb questions!
