Today, the dream team of Laken and Lindsey are back in action discussing the hoopla around perimenopause. Ladies, weight gain after 40 isn't about laziness; it's a physiological response to hormone changes as we enter this season of life. It's common to see women gain approximately three pounds per year in perimenopause.
Here's a sneak peek at what you'll learn in today's show:
• Perimenopause is a 5-10 year transition starting in late 30s/early 40s
• Perimenopause is the time before menopause (which is just one day when you've gone 12 months without a period)
• Estrogen affects more than reproduction; it impacts blood sugar, muscle, energy, gut health, and brain function
• Muscle loss in perimenopause significantly reduces metabolism
The ladies discuss the 7 root causes of weight gain after 40 and what you can do to prevent those unwanted love handles and low energy, and make these years your absolute best.
