It’s more common than you think–thanks to hormone shifts in midlife that can change how our bodies process certain proteins, sugars, and plants—turning our go-to favorites into hormone disruptors. Today, we’re pulling back the curtain on the diet-hormone connection in perimenopause—and why even “healthy” foods can backfire when your hormones are out of balance. In this episode, we‘ll address your most commonly asked questions, including: ✅ Can “healthy” foods cause hormone imbalance in perimenopause? ✅ Why do foods I used to eat just fine now bloat me? ✅ What’s the connection between food sensitivities and thyroid symptoms like fatigue and weight gain? ✅ How do I know if diet is the root cause of my midlife symptoms, like fatigue or weight gain? ✅ How do hormone changes like estrogen decline make me more sensitive to foods? ✅ How does eating plant-based foods backfire for hormone health? ✅ What practical steps can I take to uncover which foods are making my symptoms worse? If bloating, brain fog, or stubborn weight gain won’t budge despite ‘clean eating,” this episode’s for you. — Next Steps: Do You Have A Hormone Imbalance?
