324 - Menopause & Erectile Dysfunction: Hormones, Muscle Loss & Plant-Based Solutions | Dr. Brooke Bussard

  • Resumen

  • "Hot flashes are a canary in the coal mine for women. So, women who have more hot flashes, who have more frequent hot flashes, and more intense hot flashes, have a higher risk of cardiovascular disease. People who are on a whole food, plant-based diet usually have fewer hot flashes, and the men have less erectile dysfunction. We lose between 3 and 8% of our muscle mass per decade after the age of 30. And then, for women, it speeds up after menopause, because we sort of are here, and we go off a cliff. Women should not be thought of as this delicate person that can’t lift heavy, that can’t partake in exercise that’s vigorous—like, we need to make sure that we keep our bodies as strong and functional as possible. If it takes you a year to learn how to squat, to learn how to lift some weights—like, there’s no rush—but it’s good to be on a path to getting stronger." -Dr. Brooke Bussard What if menopause isn’t the end of something, but a powerful new beginning?
