Welcome to the latest summer version of the Midlife Minute.
In this episode, we’re focusing on the gut. Even though I’ve written a book about the gut microbiome changes that occur in perimenopause and menopause, I’m often asked whether the gut is truly central to midlife. So today, I provide direct answers to the many questions I received on this topic.
IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN:
How the gut microbiome and estrogen work together, and the importance of supporting both
How the estrobolome helps recycle estrogen, and why its function could decline during menopause
How poor sleep, blood sugar instability, histamine issues, and dysbiosis tend to be interconnected
The value of practitioner-guided microbiome testing when investigating histamine intolerance, dysbiosis, and weight loss resistance
Various factors that could contribute to weight loss resistance
How my approach to stool testing has evolved as newer microbiome testing technology has become available
Essential lifestyle habits for supporting gut health
