It's Not JUST Menopause: GLP-1, Metabolism, Weight Loss & Hormone Solutions for Women in Midlife – Détails, épisodes et analyse

Why does your body fight every perimenopause solution you try? In this episode, I'm breaking down the one missing step that makes everything else fail — and what to do about it.

If you're getting enough sleep but still waking up exhausted, with a clenched jaw and tight shoulders, your body is stuck in stress mode. Sleep can't be restorative when your nervous system never gets to rest.

I'll walk you through why your cortisol rhythm is thrown off, how hidden stress keeps your body on high alert even while you sleep, and the one morning routine shift that resets everything.

Link to my FREE Guide Reading Food Labels

Don't be fooled by "BPA-free" on packaging. There are still chemicals but with a different name.

According to NAHES data, people who consumed 1 canned food item in the past day had 24% higher concentrations of BPA in the urine compared with those that did not eat canned foods. Eatng 2 or more canned foods resulted in 54% higher concentrations.

(NAHES-National Health & Nutrition Examination Survey)

Canned foods, a staple in most pantries can be a significant source of exposure to the endocrine disrupting chemical BPA, as well as its replacements (replacements such as bisphenol-s or bisphenol-f, which are just as toxic).

A 2016 study found that eating canned soup resulted in 229% higher concentrations of metabolites of BPA in urine, compared to those who didn't eat canned foods.

Toxins in plastics can be very deceiving.

Phthalates are endocrine distrupting chemicals. They can exhibit both estrogenic and androgenic activity in humans, which means that female (estrogenic) and male (androgenic) characteristics that should be developing correctly are not. This also causes developmental issues in children and fertility problems in adults.

PET/PETE (Polyehtylene Terephthalate) - most common type of plastic and leaches phthalates.

PVC - (Polyvinyl Chloride) - most toxic of plastics. It's nickname is "the poison plastic". It is hard and rigid, so phthalates, lead cadmium & tin are added to add flexibility (shower curtains, garden hoses, food bottles, cling wraps).

HDPE & LDPE - two of the least toxic plastics. Used in milk jugs and plastic grocery bags.

Polystyrene (Styrofoam) - leaches styrene into foods that come in contact with it. Chemicals leached can be increased when heated or when fat is near (fatty food).

#7 is a catch-all category for all other types of plastics. Polycarbonate plastics contain BPA (bisphenol-a).

This is just a small overview of the chemicals that bombard us every single day.

Supplementation is really harming you Activation vs Supplementation In order for your body to absorb the nutrients from the cleanest of foods that you eat, you have to prepare your gut and your cells to be able to absorb those nutrients. Supplementation WON'T do that, ACTIVATION IS THE ONLY WAY!! The only benefit from supplementation is that the benefit is in the bottle. What you take is the benefit, it's not helping your body create its' own antioxidants. It's just overloading your body with things that could actually hurt you in high doses. Activation TURNS ON your DNA, and the benefit is created by your body. Your body can CREATE ITS OWN ANTIOXIDANTS. Supplementation DOES NOT DO THIS. Let me know if you are ready to ACTIVATE YOUR HEALTH!!
