How to master your hormones to stay slim and sexy after 40

In this episode, I chat to Dr Anna Cabeca, aka the Girlfriend Doctor, on how a woman's body changes after 40, particularly during perimenopause and menopause and what she can do to stay slim and sexy.

Dr Anna explains the importance of understanding how our hormones impact these changes and the simple, often easy steps you can take to keep that dreaded menopause belly at bay!

She explains how these changes affect weight management, brain function, and overall health.

The discussion covers the importance of nutrition, the role of intermittent fasting, and the impact of lifestyle choices, including alcohol consumption, on hormonal balance.

Dr Anna emphasizes the need for individualised approaches to health and wellness, particularly in managing menopausal symptoms and maintaining a healthy weight.

We discuss the critical role of hormones in women's health, particularly focusing on estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone. She emphasizes the impact of toxicity on hormonal balance and overall health, advocating for lifestyle changes, nutritional support, and the use of bioidentical hormones.

The discussion also covers the importance of exercise, particularly weight-bearing and flexibility exercises, as well as the significance of oxytocin in promoting well-being and longevity.

Dr Anna Cabeca, DO, OBGYN, FACOG, is the best selling author of The Hormone Fix and Keto-Green 16 and MenuPause. Dr Anna is triple-board certified and a fellow of gynecology and obstetrics, integrative medicine, and anti-ageing and regenerative medicine. She holds special certifications in functional medicine, sexual health, and bioidentical hormone replacement therapy.

She lectures frequently on those topics and shares the secret behind the ebb and flow of intimacy as she demystifies the fascinating hormonal changes over time. She will help you discover how the "love hormone", Oxytocin can breathe life into your relationship, and how Cortisol can take it away - and how the delicate balancing act of those hormones can reignite your libido and support a healthy relationship, most importantly the one you have with yourself.

She is sassy, blunt, speaks from the heart and has a wonderful sense of humor!

She has personally developed natural products to help women balance hormones and thrive through menopause including the highly acclaimed Julva® cream for the vulva and MightyMaca® Plus, a powerful superfood blend. She lives in Dallas with her daughters, horses and dogs.
