The Truth About the Middle Aged Middle | Solo Episode


Listen Later

EP 163: In this special episode of The Dr. Tyna Show, I'm tackling the puzzling phenomenon of midlife weight gain—a challenge many of us women face. If you’ve noticed your midsection thickening and overall body changes as you hit middle age, you’re definitely not alone. I’ll break down a recent study on this topic, covering metabolic dysfunction, the role of estrogen, and the impact of physical activity. Join me as I explore the complexities of this stage of life and offer practical solutions, including the benefits of exercise and resistance training. Tune in to uncover the science and get actionable insights for managing your health during this transformative period and learn WHY I think microdosing GLP1 agonists can be such a potent tool in this struggle.
