Alcohol, Midlife, and The Female Metabolism (Ep. 118)

Today's conversation is a continuation of the recent episodes we've been exploring around perimenopause, midlife physiology, and metabolic health.

Over the past few weeks, we've been unpacking what changes in the female body during this season of life from a physiological perspective, what's actually happening inside the body?

And today I want to dedicate an entire episode to one lifestyle input that starts landing very differently for many women in midlife alcohol.

Now, before we go any further, let me throw out my disclaimers. This episode is not about judgment or superiority. It's not about telling anyone what they should or shouldn't be doing.

My role here is education and support for those who need it. What you do with the information is completely up to you.

But what I hear every single week from hundreds of women through coaching calls, check ins, conversations, the gym and messages is that many women want to feel better. They want more energy.

They want fewer joint aches. They want less inflammation, better moods, improved quality sleep. And they definitely want less body fat.

And what I also hear very consistently is this sentence. I can't tolerate alcohol like I used to.

We'll discuss why this is the case, how the body metabolizes alcohol, and how to pivot alcohol's role in your life in midlife if you are open to a new path.
