In this episode, I’m joined by Cynthia Thurlow to talk about the connection between gut health and hormones, and how that relationship changes during perimenopause and menopause. We cover the estrobolome, estrogen metabolism, protein, fiber, and intermittent fasting. We also talk about GLP-1s, peptides, HRT, body composition, and using tools like Mira and Oura to better understand your hormones and cycle. → Leave Us A Voice Message!
