21 | Slow Metabolism, Blood Sugar Balance And The Sneaky Saboteur of Weight Loss in Perimenopause

Hey friend, For the last 6 weeks, I’ve been discussing the 7 most common hormonal imbalances that cause weight gain in perimenopause and beyond. Today, I want to share one last sneaky saboteur of weight loss–especially in women over 40–that has a little to do with hormones and a lot to do with metabolic function. Age-Related Insulin Resistance often occurs in menopause and post-menopause due to something called hormone dysregulation–a natural shift in hormone production that makes women over 40 more susceptible to blood sugar imbalance. If you’re gaining weight like crazy, no matter how little you eat or how much exercise you do, age-related insulin resistance may be to blame. In today’s episode, you will learn: What is age-related insulin resistance and are hormonal fluctuations in menopause the only cause? The connection between high blood sugar, glucose, and insulin resistance Surprising insulin resistance symptoms that go beyond cravings for sweets (Spoiler alert: Frequent yeast infections and tingling in fingers are a couple) Does age-related insulin resistance cause weight gain? (Or does weight gain cause insulin resistance?) And can you reverse insulin resistance? And if so, what does insulin resistance treatment look like? Plus, I’ll share 3 quick tips to balance your blood sugar levels, boost your metabolism, and prevent metabolic syndrome, naturally. So grab your notebook and a quick snack…preferably something high in protein (I’ll explain why later:)–as we stir the tea on all age-related things insulin resistance.   — Next Steps:   EP 20 | Belly Fat, Insulin Resistance, and Hormonal Weight Gain: Do You Have Polycystic Ovary Syndrome? https://pod.fo/e/248b3b   EP 18 | Belly Fat, Insulin Resistance, and Hormonal Weight Gain: Do You Have Polycystic Ovary Syndrome? https://pod.fo/e/246681   EP 17 | The Hidden Cause of Hormonal Weight Gain in Women Over 40: Adrenal Fatigue: https://pod.fo/e/243891   Take my FREE Hormone Quiz: https://bit.ly/HormoneSelfAssessment   Shop my Favorite Hormone Balancing Supplements And Save 5% or More on Every Order (Enter promo code EUQ1741): https://www.iherb.com/me/HormoneBalance   Become A Podcast Insider: https://areyoutheremidlife.com/   Book a FREE Hormone Clarity Call: https://bit.ly/HCprecall   Record a Question to be Answered on the Podcast: https://www.speakpipe.com/AreYouThereMidlife   Email Me: [email protected] *Disclaimer: Information provided in this podcast is for educational and entertainment purposes only.
