What if eating more protein is actually one of the things keeping you stuck?

In this episode of the Metabolism and Menopause Podcast, Stephanie pulls back the curtain on gluconeogenesis — the process by which your body converts protein into sugar — and explains exactly why this pathway goes into overdrive in perimenopause and menopause. If you have been hitting your protein numbers and watching the scale go up instead of down, this is the episode that will finally tell you why.

You will learn:

• What gluconeogenesis is

• How estrogen decline removes the brake on liver glucose production

• Why cortisol is the master switch on this pathway — and what to do about it

• How chronic inflammation reroutes your protein into fat storage

• The five things to fix first — in order — before touching your protein number

If you are tired of doing everything right and watching your body do everything wrong, this episode is your map back. If this episode landed for you, share it with one woman in your life who needs to hear it — and leave a review wherever you listen. It helps more women find their way back to their bodies.
