Nadia Brito Pateguana: The Menopause Plan, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Navigate perimenopause, menopause, and postmenopause with clarity, confidence, and a plan tailored to your needs. The Menopause Plan offers a compassionate, science-backed roadmap to preventing metabolic disease and feeling like yourself again.
>Many women are never told that menopause is metabolic. Hormonal changes during this transition can affect the way the body works. Women begin to store fat differently, regulate blood sugar less efficiently, and have higher levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL, or bad) cholesterol. These effects increase the risk of developing metabolic syndrome, which is associated with a constellation of health issues, including heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and certain cancers. In other words, all women entering perimenopause are at higher risk of serious long-term health concerns.

In The Menopause Plan, the authors share their perspectives as a gynecologist (Melissa) and a naturopath (Nadia) who have worked with thousands of women through this transition, and as women experiencing perimenopause and menopause themselves. Their approach isn't about choosing camps. It isn't "you must take hormones" and it isn't "you must avoid them." It isn't "try harder to lose weight" and it isn't "don't lose weight at all." It is a calm, middle-ground, balanced approach rooted in:

• Hormone education, in simple, easy-to-understand terms
• Insight into new therapies including GLP-1s and supplements
• Metabolic support through food and fasting options
• Strength training to protect muscle, bone, and brain
• Pelvic and sexual health, addressed openly and without shame
• Sleep, stress, and emotional support
• Evidence-based hormone therapy guidance
• Practical tools, not extremes

Women deserve information to make the best choices for their health--not pressure, not fear tactics, and certainly not dismissal. You are not broken, and you are not imagining this. There is physiology. There are tools. The Menopause Plan gives you the map--and the confidence--to navigate this transition on your own terms.
