284. Rethinking Menopause, Hormones and HRT with Kristin Johnson and Maria Claps of Wise and Well
Manage episode 441988490 series 1031090
I’ve shared on the show before that starting menopause radically changed my body. And we’ve talked about how hard it is to find smart, supportive, and true information about health, hormones, and HRT in midlife.
But now there is finally a book that shares everything I wish I knew five years ago! And I’m thrilled to talk about it with the authors today.
In this episode, I’m joined by Kristin Johnson and Maria Claps of Wise and Well, who wrote The Great Menopause Myth: The Truth on Mastering Midlife Hormonal Mayhem, Beating Uncomfortable Symptoms, and Aging to Thrive.
We discuss:
- How health declines during menopause
- The impacts of hormone loss as we age
- Deciding if HRT is right for you
- How to prepare yourself for HRT & manage your expectations
- Why you might need a new doctor in mid-life
- Weight loss during menopause
- The relationship between stress & weight gain
- Why “you have to pick your hormones or your alcohol”
- The importance of critical thinking & self-advocacy
- Why you probably don’t need to be on DIM
More about our guests: Maria, an FDN practitioner, and Kristin, an NTP Board Certified in Holistic Nutrition, are plainspoken friends and practitioners who share a passion for women's health, especially women's health at midlife. They are the authors of the widely acclaimed book "The Great Menopause Myth", a comprehensive, science based, yet easy to read guide for women who want their best chances at healthy longevity. As both are themselves menopausal, they've refined the art and science of thriving as a midlife woman based on both clinical and personal experience. They combine individualized nutrition and lifestyle changes tailored to midlife women's needs with mindset coaching, lab testing and hormone replacement therapy education to help women thrive so that they can stop or prevent their health from spinning out of control.
