Nutrition

The diet that worked in your 30s will fail you now. In menopause, your body becomes less tolerant of carbohydrates and more desperate for amino acids. We don’t eat less; we eat differently.

The New Rules

We stop counting calories and start manipulating hormones through food.

  • Protein Anchor: You need 30g of protein at every meal. This triggers muscle protein synthesis, which is harder to activate as we age.
  • Blood Sugar Management: Spiking insulin causes hot flashes and belly fat. We prioritize fiber and healthy fats to keep the curve flat.
  • Strategic Carbs: We earn our carbohydrates. We eat them around our workouts when our muscles can actually use them as fuel.

This isn’t about restriction. It’s about giving your body the building blocks it needs to repair itself without the estrogen safety net.
