How can you prevent weight gain during menopause?
One of the biggest challenges in life for women relates to menopause. Typically, women reach menopause, which marks the end of menstruation in a woman’s life, between the ages of 45 and 55, but it can happen much earlier or as late as 60. Most women put on about half a kilo of weight every year during this period of life. This is especially important because considering the average life expectancy of women in developed countries is 81 years, women will spend about 40 per cent of their life in post-menopause, and the weight gain you experience during this time will put you at increased risk of disease.
So, how do you prevent the weight gain that comes with menopause? Are hormones to blame? Join Dr Nick as he takes you on a deep dive into the science to find out.
