Description

Angela presents a bitesized, compelling discussion with Dr. Gabrielle Lyon about the transformative journey through perimenopause and menopause. They explore the critical importance of muscle health and the role of protein in maintaining vitality as women age.

Dr. Lyon emphasises that decline is not inevitable and shares actionable insights on nutrition and exercise that can empower women to take control of their health

Key Takeaways

Muscle Health is Crucial: Building and maintaining skeletal muscle is essential for women, especially as they approach menopause

Nutrition Matters: A significant focus should be placed on dietary protein intake. The recommendation is to aim for about one gram of protein per pound of ideal body weight to support muscle health

Start Early or Start Now: It's important to begin focusing on muscle health and exercise early in life, but it's never too late to start. The best time to begin is today, regardless of past habits.

Addressing Menopausal Changes: Women going through perimenopause and menopause may experience changes in body composition, including increased visceral fat and loss of muscle mass
