Most midlife women think carbs are the enemy… but the real problem isn’t the carbs—it’s protein (or a lack of it.)
Because once we hit our 40s, those same bagels and banana bread we inhaled in our 20s suddenly hit our metabolism a lot harder once our hormones start to shift.
In today’s episode, I’m breaking down the three simple protein-timing rules that stabilize blood sugar, support your hormones, and get your metabolism working for you again—even in a carb-heavy season.
In this episode, I‘ll address your most commonly Googled questions, including:
✅ Why does my metabolism seem slower in my 40s?
✅ Do carbs slow metabolism?
✅ Why does the scale jump whenever I eat carbs?
✅ Why do I crave carbs so much in perimenopause?
✅ How do I stabilize my blood sugar in perimenopause without giving up carbs?
✅ Why do I crash every afternoon in perimenopause — even when I eat breakfast?
✅ How much protein do midlife women actually need to lose weight?
If every holiday carb you consume seems to go straight to your stomach, this episode’s for you.
