Nourishing Your Body Through Perimenopause Insights with Nutritionist Hope Pedraza
Nourishing Your Body Through Perimenopause: Insights with Nutritionist Hope Pedraza
In this episode, host Megan Swan and certified holistic nutritionist Hope Pedraza unravel the complexities of nutrition and wellness for women experiencing perimenopause. Let's delve into the conversation that covers a range of insightful topics:
1. Protein Intake: The importance of adequate protein consumption is paramount in perimenopause, where maintaining muscle mass is crucial. Hope Pedraza recommends aiming for 25 to 35 grams of protein per meal, with a daily goal of at least 120 grams, whether from plant or animal sources.
2. Blood Sugar Regulation: Megan and Hope discuss the significant role of stable blood sugar in perimenopause. Dysregulated blood sugar impacts adrenals and estrogen production, magnifying perimenopausal symptoms.
3. Adrenal Care: The health of your adrenal glands takes center stage, with discussions on managing stress, the necessity of completing stress cycles, and the role of good minerals and hydration in supporting adrenal function.
4. Exercise for Aging: The dialogue touches on the importance of functional movement and the combination of strength training with flexibility activities like pilates and yoga to uphold an active, healthy lifestyle as we age.
5. Mindful Consumption: Strategies to replace ingrained habits with healthier choices emerge as both Megan and Hope stress the value of intentional choices. They recommend sustainable approaches to reducing caffeine and reevaluating one’s relationship with habits and consumption patterns.
In short, this episode is a powerhouse of insights on longevity through balanced nutrition and holistic health practices. Ideal for women charting the seas of perimenopause, it's a call to mindful eating, stress management, and a proactive stance on wellness that reverberates into all facets of life. Join us as we embrace self-care and empower ourselves through every transition.
