Doro and Tricia welcome Dr. Mariza Snyder, an expert on perimenopause and menopause. Dr. Snyder gives an overview of women's wellness research, highlighting the misconceptions surrounding the Women's Health Initiative and the need for a more holistic approach to women's health, particularly regarding hormone replacement therapy. Dr. Snyder talks about the roles of estrogen and progesterone, the significance of metabolic health, the impact of hormonal changes during menopause, muscle health, and the impact of stress and trauma on overall well-being. She outlines the significance of nutrition, lifestyle choices, and health-technology in managing these changes and promoting hormonal health, guiding listeners towards a healthier path as they enter the stages of perimenopause and menopause.

Feeling stuck in a cycle of fatigue, brain fog, and hormone chaos? Wondering why no matter how “healthy” you eat, your energy stays low or your weight won't budge? You're not alone—and it may not be your fault. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Aly Cohen, a board-certified rheumatologist and environmental health expert, to talk about something that affects every single one of us but rarely gets discussed: the toxic chemical overload hiding in our everyday lives. We unpack how environmental chemicals are silently disrupting your hormone balance, gut health, and immune system—especially during perimenopause and menopause, when your body is already more sensitive to stress, inflammation, and hormonal shifts. You'll hear how toxins are linked to weight loss resistance, IBS, exhaustion, thyroid dysfunction, and even autoimmune flares. Dr. Cohen shares her signature “4 A's” method to detox your life—without obsessing or aiming for perfection. From common kitchen swaps to what's lurking in your self-care routine (yep, even your garbage bags), we get into the everyday habits that silently sabotage your metabolism and energy—and how to reclaim your vitality, one simple change at a time. Key Points (Listen for the 'how' in the full episode): • The everyday products disrupting your hormone balance and gut health—especially during perimenopause • How immune-disrupting chemicals could be triggering inflammation, fatigue, and autoimmune flares • A subtle hormone shift that might explain your energy crashes—and how to fix it without relying on coffee • The surprising link between toxins and brain fog, and the four simple steps Dr. Cohen recommends to detox smarter (not harder) If you're doing “all the right things” for your health but still dealing with bloating, mood swings, constipation, or low energy, it's time to look deeper. Toxins are the hidden variable no one talks about—but they're quietly impacting your metabolism, hormone balance, and gut health. This episode helps you understand the “why” behind your symptoms and gives you a practical place to start. Ready to clear the confusion and reclaim your health? Tune in and learn how to assess, avoid, and gently detox without the overwhelm. Because true hormone balance, digestion, and energy start with removing what's blocking your body from healing.  How to Connect with Dr. Meg:   Free Guide: 6 Essential Steps for an Effective Detox  MegaVitality Supplement Store: www.megavitalityshop.com.

“Everything looks normal”… but you still feel exhausted, anxious, inflamed, and out of sync with your body. Sound familiar? The truth is, most women in their 30s, 40s, and 50s aren't getting real answers when they start experiencing the hormonal shifts of perimenopause and menopause. Instead, they're told their symptoms are “just stress” or handed a prescription that masks the issue—without addressing the root cause. In this episode of Rooted in Wellness, I'm joined by women's hormone expert Dr. Mariza Snyder for a science-backed conversation about what's really going on beneath the surface. We break down the connection between hormone decline, nervous system dysregulation, brain health, metabolic shifts, and chronic inflammation—plus why so many of the conventional protocols (like extreme fasting, overtraining, or testosterone pellets) can make things worse, not better. Dr. Mariza Snyder is a functional practitioner, women's hormone expert, and bestselling author of The Essential Oils Hormone Solution and The Menopause Relief Protocol.

Ever feel crushing fatigue, stubborn belly weight, or energy crashes no matter how “clean” you eat? Let's sort out the confusion around weight-loss resistance, hormone balance, gut health, and a metabolism that suddenly won't cooperate—especially in perimenopause when brain fog, IBS-style bloating, and low energy can gang-up on you.  Today I walk you through the hidden hormone signals that turn calories into cling-on fat (yes, even if you're fasting, counting macros, or exercising harder) —so you can finally drop the frustration along with the extra pounds. ​ What we cover in this episode The cortisol trap that stores fat around your organs—and the simple nightly shift that starts reversing it. A subtle estrogen-progesterone imbalance that can tank metabolism in perimenopause and why blood tests often miss it. Why “eat less, move more” backfires when thyroid conversion stalls (hint: it's not just about calories). A protein-fiber combo that smooths blood-sugar spikes and steadies energy without crash diets. You'll walk away knowing what hormone patterns sabotage weight-loss, why stress and sleep set the stage for belly fat, and which lab clues flag hidden insulin resistance—so you can tune into the full episode for the “how” and put each fix into action. Expect to reclaim energy, clear brain fog, and see the scale move in the right direction while supporting gut and digestive health along the way.  Struggling with bloating, IBS, constipation, fatigue, brain fog, or hormone imbalance?

“Is Stress the Real Reason You Can't Lose Weight or Heal Your Gut?” Are you constantly battling fatigue, weight loss resistance, hormone imbalance, or relentless brain fog—and wondering why nothing is working, even though you're doing all the “right” things? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Tricia Pingel to unpack one of the most overlooked but powerful drivers of chronic symptoms: cortisol. We explore how the stress response hijacks your metabolism, messes with your hormones, disrupts your digestion, and can even trigger histamine intolerance and immune system reactivity. If you're in perimenopause, struggling with IBS, feel stuck despite healthy eating and workouts, or just can't figure out why your energy has tanked, this conversation is for you. You'll walk away with fresh insight into how your body is not broken—it's protecting you. And there's a way out. Key Points:  The stress-hormone connection that's wrecking your metabolism and gut health—without you even realizing it. A subtle hormone shift that might explain your energy crashes, and how to fix it without coffee. Why your IBS, histamine issues, or food reactions aren't always about the food—and what to focus on instead. The surprising link between perimenopause and your adrenal response (plus why fasting could be backfiring). What You'll Learn Inside the Episode:  We talk about how adrenal fatigue often sneaks up on the most driven, type-A women—the ones powering through life, checking every box, and still feeling awful. Dr. Pingel explains why your body stores fat in a stressed state (especially around the midsection), how perceived stress—not just actual events—triggers hormonal chaos, and what's really happening in your immune system when you react to the same food one day but not the next. She also walks us through her four-pillar approach to adrenal healing: Functional nutrition that supports cortisol regulation Movement that calms the nervous system rather than overwhelms it Strategic supplementation, including specific vitamins and adaptogens Mind-body rewiring to shift your stress response for good We get into the mindset blocks that keep you stuck in burnout, the dangerous myth of pushing harder to get results, and how joy, boundaries, and nervous system regulation can transform your gut, hormones, and energy levels more than any diet or detox ever will. Fatigue, hormone imbalance, and gut symptoms don't always mean something's “broken”—they often mean your body's under-protected and overstimulated. You can shift your biology by shifting your stress response. This episode offers a roadmap for how to do exactly that, starting with how you think, move, eat, and prioritize yourself.   If you've tried everything and still don't feel better, this might just be the missing piece.

The Hidden Key to Hormone Balance—Why Iodine Matters More Than You Think Are you struggling with fatigue, weight loss resistance, brain fog, or stubborn digestive issues? Have you ever considered that an iodine deficiency might be behind it? Iodine plays a crucial role in hormone balance, metabolism, and thyroid function, yet it's often overlooked. Many people don't realize that low iodine levels can contribute to symptoms like IBS, perimenopause struggles, and even estrogen dominance—leading to heavy periods, mood swings, and low energy. In this episode, we dive into the little-known ways iodine impacts your health—from supporting thyroid hormones to protecting your brain and metabolism. If you're feeling stuck with frustrating symptoms and haven't found answers, it's time to consider this missing mineral. What You'll Learn in This Episode: The shocking connection between iodine and hormone balance—and why most people aren't getting enough. How iodine deficiency could be behind your fatigue, weight struggles, and brain fog—plus simple ways to check your levels.

Struggling with fatigue, brain fog, weight loss resistance, or unpredictable digestion? It might not just be stress—it could be your hormones working against you. If you've ever wondered why perimenopause seems to zap your energy or why your metabolism feels sluggish despite your best efforts, this episode is for you. In today's episode of A Little Bit Healthier, we're kicking off the Hormone Series by breaking down the HPA-TG Axis—your body's command center for hormone balance. This system influences everything from stress regulation to metabolism, thyroid function, and reproductive health. Yet, most of us were never taught how it all works or what we can do to support it. I'll walk you through the missing links between your hormones, gut health, and energy levels—and why chronic stress might be sabotaging your thyroid and metabolism without you realizing it. What You'll Learn in This Episode: What the HPA-TG Axis is and why it holds the key to hormone balance, metabolism, and digestion The surprising way stress impacts your thyroid, leading to fatigue, sluggish metabolism, and weight gain How high insulin levels can trigger hormone imbalances, making perimenopause symptoms worse The simple lifestyle shifts that can help regulate cortisol, balance blood sugar, and support digestion for better energy When your hormones are in sync, your body thrives. When they're out of balance, you feel exhausted, struggle to lose weight, deal with bloating, and experience mood swings that seem impossible to control. We'll cover why cortisol is stealing your progesterone, how insulin resistance contributes to weight gain and PCOS, and what you can do to start regaining control over your energy, metabolism, and gut health.

Na véspera do Dia da Mulher, O Assunto publica um episódio sobre um tema que ainda é tabu: a menopausa. Natuza Nery conversa com Fernanda Lima, jornalista e apresentadora do podcast Zen Vergonha, cuja primeira temporada foi integralmente dedicada à menopausa. Depois, Natuza fala com a também jornalista Mariza Tavares, colunista do g1 e autora do livro ‘Menopausa: o momento de fazer as escolhas certas para o resto da sua vida'. Fernanda Lima relata como foi, aos 45 anos, lidar com os sintomas conhecidos – e outros nem tanto – do período de transição conhecido como ‘perimenopausa'. Agora, aos 47, ela fala sobre os reflexos dessa fase nas relações familiares, no corpo e na mente. Fernanda compara o processo com uma “rasteira” que atinge mulheres. E reflete sobre o processo de envelhecimento: “a gente vai ter que parar com a ideia de juventude eterna, que é até um pouco ridícula”, diz. Mariza Tavares explica o que a literatura médica descobriu sobre a menopausa e quais são seus sintomas pouco conhecidos, como a chamada “névoa mental”. Autora do blog ‘Longevidade: modo de usar', Mariza fala da importância de acompanhar de perto esta fase da vida, principalmente em um país onde o percentual de mulheres na faixa etária de entrada da menopausa quase dobrou em 25 anos. Em 2000, 8,5% da população brasileira era formada por mulheres acima de 50 anos. Hoje, a projeção é de que 15% das mulheres tenham mais de 50, o que equivale a mais de 33 milhões de brasileiras, segundo os dados do IBGE.

"É incrível pisar a Ópera de Sidney e sentir uma receção tão carinhosa. Não eram só portugueses na sala, era um público misto, mas a comunidade portuguesa fez-se sentir. Com muito carinho, com muito respeito."

Feeling stuck in perimenopause?  Navigating perimenopause can feel overwhelming, especially when women's health is so often treated like men's.  But it's time to change that!  We're so used to these deep-seated societal beliefs about women in midlife– putting us at a disadvantage when it comes to whole body health and disease prevention, especially as we age.

Have you ever felt like stress is running your life? That no matter what you do, you're constantly exhausted, irritable, or dealing with hormonal symptoms like PMS, heavy periods, or brain fog? You're not alone! Chronic stress plays a huge role in hormonal imbalances—especially estrogen dominance. When your body is in survival mode, it prioritizes stress hormones like cortisol over reproductive hormones, leading to a cascade of issues that disrupt your menstrual cycle, energy levels, and overall well-being. In this episode, I'm diving deep into how chronic stress impacts estrogen dominance, the sneaky stressors you may not even realize are affecting you, and ten simple hacks to restore balance and feel like yourself again. Let's break the cycle of stress and reclaim your health! In this Episode The surprising connection between stress and estrogen dominance How chronic stress disrupts your thyroid, adrenals, and reproductive hormones The sneaky stressors that may be messing with your cycle Why progesterone levels plummet in perimenopause—and what to do about it The role of xenoestrogens and environmental toxins in hormone imbalance 10 simple hacks to rebalance your hormones and support your body How to send safety signals to your body and manage stress effectively Quotes "Your body is always doing its best to reach homeostasis, but chronic stress makes that nearly impossible. If we don't address stress, we can't fully heal our hormones." "Most of us are leaning towards estrogen dominance by default—especially after 35. The key is to support progesterone and reduce stressors that tip the balance." "Managing stress isn't just about reducing overwhelm—it's about telling your body it's safe so that it can prioritize healing, digestion, and hormone balance."

Angela presents a bitesize in the company of Dr Mariza Snyder, in which they explore the world of essential oils, highlighting their potential for providing quick and effective remedies for energy, focus, and relaxation. They also discuss the benefits of combining peppermint with citrus oils, such as grapefruit or lemon, to create an instant energy boost without the negative side effects associated with sugar and caffeine. KEY TAKEAWAYS Essential oils can provide immediate benefits similar to the quick energy boost from sugar or caffeine, but without the negative side effects like blood sugar spikes and crashes. A combination of peppermint and citrus oils (such as grapefruit or lemon) is recommended for an instant energy and brain boost, enhancing focus and alertness. Floral essential oils like lavender, geranium, and ylang-ylang are effective for relaxation and mood enhancement, making it possible to create a spa-like atmosphere at home. For better sleep, combining lavender with cedarwood or vetiver can help quiet mental chatter and promote relaxation, making it easier to fall asleep. TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS "We all deserve quick wins. We all deserve moments of awe... a remedy that works as fast as a half a chocolate bar." "An essential oil to me is the equivalent of that experience without the blood sugar rise and crash." "Peppermint increases oxygen to the brain by seven to ten percent by simply breathing it in."

When our hormones begin to shift, it can still feel like no one prepared you for what's coming.  I'll never forget the moment I realized I was officially in perimenopause:  At 44, I felt an overwhelming sense of dread, bouts of rage I couldn't explain, and the exhaustion of crawling through mud just to get through the day.  As someone who has supported thousands of women through midlife transitions, I knew exactly what was happening—and yet, I wasn't prepared for how destabilizing it would feel.

The truth is, your hormones don't stop affecting you; they just change how they interact with your body.” “For so long, women have been told to ‘just deal with it.' But that's a huge myth. There are real options out there to make this stage of life vibrant and powerful.” “Estrogen and progesterone are not just ‘reproductive hormones.' They affect every cell in the body, and losing them affects everything from mood to metabolism to cardiovascular health.” “We can't ignore the connection between mood swings, energy crashes, and hormonal shifts. When you lose progesterone, it affects your brain, your mood, and even your sleep. These changes aren't all in your head—they're real.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Pre-Order Dr. Nicky Keay's NEW Book: Use code MARIZA for an exclusive discount on Dr. Nicky's book—The Myths of Menopause.
