Outsmarting Menopause

Conversations about Metabolism, Muscles, Mood and More

De: Brooke Bussard MD

Narrado por: Anna Klein

You’ve been doing everything right—eating healthy, staying active—but suddenly, your body isn’t responding the way it used to. The weight creeps up, your energy crashes, and sleep becomes a nightly battle. New aches and pains appear, you have trouble concentrating, and mood swings become the norm.

No one prepared you for this.

This book is for you if you’re tired of the generic advice that doesn’t work for women in midlife. Menopause has not been given space in medical school curricula and many providers feel ill-prepared to manage this transition. The truth is, many health and fitness recommendations are based on research done on men, not on women going through menopause. Your hormones are changing, and that means your approach to health has to change too.

You don’t have to fear this phase of life. With the right strategies, you can take back control of your metabolism, build muscle, protect your bones, and boost your mood—all while feeling strong, clear-headed, and energized.

Inside, you’ll discover how to:

Stop the cycle of stress, cortisol, and weight gain that sabotages your efforts

Adapt your workouts so they build muscle and burn fat instead of leaving you exhausted

Improve your sleep, balance your mood, and support brain health with simple daily shifts

This isn’t about just getting through menopause—it’s about thriving in the years ahead. If you're ready to feel like yourself again, this book will show you how.
