#157  - Is It Really Just “Normal Aging”? The Hidden Hormonal Imbalances Wrecking Your Energy, Weight, & Youthfulness with Dr Prudence Hall   Ever been told that your weight gain, brain fog, and exhaustion are just “part of getting older”? Yeah, no. In this episode, I sit down with renowned hormone expert Dr. Prudence Hall to talk about why so many women are struggling through perimenopause and menopause—and why it doesn't have to be that way.   Dr. Hall, a gynecological surgeon turned regenerative and functional medicine expert, shares the biggest myths about midlife and menopause, the truth about bioidentical hormones, and why so many women in perimenopause and menopause are failed by conventional medicine. We dive into hormonal imbalances, how they affect weight, sleep, mood, beauty, and energy, and—most importantly—how to rebalance your body so you can look and feel amazing again.   If you're tired of being told “it's just aging,” this episode will change everything.

With the right nutrition and lifestyle changes, you can fight back.In this episode, we'll dive into the causes of Inflammaging and how you can flip the script on aging. Want to take on free radicals?
