214. Gut Health, Hormones & Menopause — The Missing Link in Weight & Appetite Changes

6d ago 7:22

MP3•Episode home

In this episode, we’re breaking down a topic that so many women in their late 30s, 40s, and 50s are struggling with — but almost no one explains well: how your gut microbiome influences your hormones, especially during perimenopause and menopause.
If your appetite, cravings, mood, or weight feel completely different than they used to, it’s not “just aging” — it’s a real shift happening inside your gut that affects inflammation, estrogen metabolism, and the hormones that regulate hunger and fullness.

You’ll learn why gut health and estrogen balance are deeply connected — and how changes in the microbiome during menopause can influence weight, cravings, and inflammation.

We’ll break down how gut-driven changes to hunger hormones, mood regulation, and blood sugar can make eating feel unpredictable — and why this is biology, not willpower.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode

1. How your gut microbiome actually affects your hormones

2. The real reason your appetite and cravings feel different now

3. Simple, realistic steps to support your gut and feel better
