Midlife Metabolism with Dr. Gillian Goddard [Ep. 160]
Description
Midlife can be the worst when it comes to weight gain. If you are wondering what the ehck is going on with your metabolism and how your hormones might play a role, this episode is for you!
I’m joined by Dr. Gillian Goddard, an endocrinologist and an adjunct assistant professor of medicine at the NYU Grossman School of Medicine. She has more than 15 years of clinical experience and a particular expertise in endocrine diseases affecting women during the reproductive years, pregnancy and through perimenopause.
She helps us understand the nuances of hormone interaction during the menopause transition (which includes all those lovely years before as well known as perimenopause!). We discuss why weight gain happens and what we can do specifically in this time to combat it.
