EP 72 Pt. 1 of 2: Are you a menopausal woman thinking "what the f*!k is going on?" Have you started seeing changes in your weight and body composition? Do you find yourself endlessly exploring diets that aren't focused on midlife women and menopausal support? And, if they are midlife focused they don't even work. Have you been using your golden sh*t shovel to dig through the rabbit hole of Google results on hot flash remedies? Are you resorting to IG comments and Facebook groups for advice on hormone health? Although menopause is natural, the symptoms can be treated. Finding the right resources is the first step in midlife health. When it comes to menopause & perimenopause information backed by science can reassure you that you are on the right track.

Join me, Dr. Sarah Milken, in an open and honest conversation called, "Taming Weight Gain, Menopause and Inflammation with Dr. Mary Claire Harver, The Galveston Diet". My guest, Mary Claire, is a board-certified OB/GYN, "menopause normalizer, and problem solver". She changed the focus of her whole gynecology practice to specialize in menopause care and became a social media superstar on Instagram and TikTok with 2 million followers. We discuss her specialized medical practice, her new best-selling and sold-out book… The Galveston Diet, menopausal health, and the importance of exercise, nutrition, supplements, fiber, and hormones in midlife.

Some Highlights:

• How should we be treating menopause? It's a natural process that has solutions. We don't need to suffer

• Menopausal weight gain isn't all about willpower, our hormones are actually going ballistic, and there are ways to approach them

• Vitamin D, Vitamin K, magnesium, fiber, collagen, turmeric, and fish oils are key supplements in midlife. Mary Claire gives us the details we are looking for on exactly where to find them and how they can improve our health in midlife

• Fruits, vegetables, legumes, nuts, seeds, and lean meats are anti-inflammatory foods, so add these to your grocery list ASAP

• How to figure out what supplements you should be taking
