I highlight the importance of building a strong foundation in health before considering hormone replacement therapy, sharing personal experiences with gut health and the impact on women transitioning into perimenopause.

Topics Covered:

  • Vitamin D3 & K2: How this hormone-like nutrient supports insulin sensitivity, metabolism, and bone health, plus safe ways to boost levels through food and sun exposure.
  • Magnesium: The stress-relieving mineral critical for relaxation, sleep, and stress management, with tips on the best forms and sources.
  • Protein: Essential for muscle health, metabolism, and energy, with guidance on how much to consume and various food and supplement options.

Tune in for tips on adding these nutrients to your daily routine and see how foundational health practices can boost vitality and support lasting benefits from hormone replacement therapy.
