E52 | Weight Loss: Why You Can’t Separate Hormones from the Nervous System

Listen Later

In this episode, I respond to requests to speak about weight loss in midlife — especially the relationship between hormones and the nervous system.

I share my personal experience and the information I’ve collected over the years from listening to hundreds of hours of podcasts and reading extensively on metabolic health, thyroid function, insulin, menopause, and nervous system regulation.

Topics include:

  • Estrogen, serotonin, and midlife metabolic shifts

  • Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) and common myths

  • Thyroid–insulin connection

  • Low-carb, ketogenic, and carnivore approaches

  • Ketones and fat adaptation

  • Sleep, cortisol, and circadian rhythm

  • Why nourishing the body may be foundational for nervous system balance

    Sources and voices mentioned in this episode:

    • Dr. Peter Attia

    • Dr. Andrew Huberman (Huberman Lab)

    • Dr. Sara Gottfried (The Hormone Cure)

    • Dr. Lisa Mosconi

    • Dr. Elizabeth Bright

    • Dr. Anthony Chaffee
