The Surprising Role of Testosterone in Perimenopause
About this episode
Are you ready to unlock the secrets to improved health during perimenopause and menopause? This week join me as I explore the often underestimated role of testosterone in women's well-being. Discover how this crucial hormone influences everything from libido and brain function to muscle mass, bone strength, heart health, energy levels, and sleep quality. Learn how personalised nutrition, stress management, and a diet rich in antioxidants, protein, and healthy fats can holistically support hormone balance.
In addition, I delve into optimising your hormones for better health by examining the essential role of vitamin D, particularly during the Australian winter months, while also discussing the dangers of over-supplementation. Susie shares insights on the importance of key nutrients like vitamin B5 from cruciferous vegetables and pulses, and how zinc is vital for maintaining testosterone levels. We also cover effective stress management techniques such as deep breathing, yoga, and meditation to keep cortisol in check. Learn strategies for improving sleep quality, from managing light exposure to establishing a consistent sleep routine, and discover how resistance training can boost muscle mass and testosterone. Tune in to equip yourself with the knowledge to enhance your health and well-being during this transformative phase of life.
