Any symptoms you are experiencing may be perimenopausal or menopausal or triggered by insulin or thyroid issues. It is important when you feel any new symptoms occurring in your body that you contact your doctor for a check up!
Weight gain is a common occurrence after 40 but it does not have to be! Move your body, eat real whole foods made with love, rest and recover to reach optimal health. You can alter the way your metabolism works so be sure you are doing so in a positive way.
Stress plays a huge role in visceral fat and unbalanced hormone levels. It is key to find balance to help reduce the possibility of adrenal fatigue as well as lower your cortisol levels to help with weight management.
