There’s so much more to being healthy than just being “thin” and the closer we get to perimenopause and menopause, the more we realize that. Today Jill is chatting with Tina Haupert of Carrots N Cake about minerals, metabolism, mindset, and how important they are to maintaining our health. We always hear about macronutrients, but no one seems to care about micronutrients and the effect that a lack of minerals has on our energy levels and metabolism. Sometimes we can get so focused on being the smallest version of ourselves that we forget that our bodies need nourishment in order to function. We don’t know about you, but we care far more about feeling good lately, but when you feel good, looking good isn’t far behind.
