54. Q&A Peptides, Fasting, and What Your Labs Are Missing
About this episode
You sent in questions, and the same four kept coming up again and again. Which tells Tanya that for every woman who wrote in, there are many more quietly asking the same things, wondering about the medications flooding their feeds, the fasting approach that might be working against them, and the lab results that say normal when nothing about how they feel is normal.
In this episode, Tanya answers her community's most-asked questions, covering GLP-1 receptor agonists and the trade-offs most conversations leave out, the one supplement she recommends for women in perimenopause and menopause, why intermittent fasting without the right foundation can increase cortisol burden in women with shifting hormones, and what is missing from the standard lab panel when results say normal and the body says otherwise.
This is the first Q&A episode on the Nourish to Thrive podcast and a bridge into an in-depth July series on peptides. If these questions have been circling in your mind, this is a grounding place to start.
