View descriptionShare

Angela welcomes Dr Kyle Gillett to discuss the ways you can effectively optimise your hormones and positively impact the menopause transition

Dr Gillett explains how hormones are affected as women approach menopause and the major role lifestyle pillars such as sleep, levels of stress, exercise and diet play in achieving optimal health.

He discusses why food is medicine and how the most powerful intervention for almost all females is the right  balanced diet and nutrition to support hormone health

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • The way you enter menopause is key, those who are metabolically fit are likely to  have a better experience
  • If you go through andropause and menopause at the same time you more likely to have more severe symptoms
  • The better you are able to optimise your androgens and oestrogens without the ovary the better your transition to menopause
  • Food is medicine and the most powerful intervention for almost all females is the right balanced diet and nutrition
  • For optimal health, it’s not just  what’s going into your body and its efficiency, it’s all aspects that contribute to the complete health picture
  • Your lifestyle plays a major role, sleep, levels of stress and exercise along with hormone health are all major contributing factors
  • Almost everyone can get into zone two with a brisk power walk and should aim to do this for at least 2 hours per week
  • Your brain and other lean body mass are closely related
  • Individuals who remain at the same weight over time are at less risk from dementia
  • Good healthy body mass helps retain healthy brain mass
