Join us for an eye-opening conversation about nutrition and metabolic science. Andrea Donsky, a renowned nutritionist, menopause educator, published researcher, and co-founder of wearemorphus.com, sits down with metabolic health expert Ben Azadi to discuss one of the most pressing health challenges facing women today. 

Ben Azadi brings his expertise as a health educator, bestselling author, and podcast host to share groundbreaking strategies that can revolutionize how you approach your metabolic health during perimenopause and menopause. This isn't just another wellness discussion; it's a science-backed roadmap to reclaiming your energy, optimizing your metabolism, and thriving through this next chapter of your life.

Topics Covered:

• Ben Azadi went from being overweight with early diabetes and high blood pressure to becoming metabolically healthy by staying curious about what really affects our health, mindset, and the choices we make every day.
• Instead of just trying to lose weight, Ben teaches us to see extra weight as our body's way of telling us something is wrong and how to figure out what's really causing the weight gain in the first place.
• The foundational pieces of metabolic flexibility/freedom are eating whole/single-ingredient foods, engaging in regular movement, and adopting a responsible, rather than a victim, mindset.
• The key is tweaking one or two things a week to improve your health without being overwhelmed.
• Understanding what metabolic freedom really means and why it becomes even more important as women go through perimenopause and menopause, when our bodies naturally become more resistant to insulin.
• The importance of asking your doctor for a fasting insulin test.
• Hacks for carbohydrates and blunting insulin responses.
• Key lifestyle changes to improve sleep and master stress resilience, 
• Tips for improving heart rate variability (HRV).
• How our thoughts and overall well-being directly impact our physical health, including scientific proof that practicing gratitude can actually make us healthier and help us live longer.
