Did you know that postmenopausal women are at a significantly higher risk of conditions like osteoporosis, heart disease, and dementia? On top of that, we often deal with brain fog, chronic inflammation, bloating, and other frustrating symptoms.
The good news is you don’t have to sit back and accept it.
You can start protecting yourself against these risks right now. Based on years of research, I created a supplement regimen that makes me feel better now than I did in my 20s. In this episode, I’m sharing my top five supplements for post-menopausal women, so you can feel your best, too. I'm betting that most of these will be new to you, so have a listen (and be sure to talk to your doctor about anything you incorporate into your routine).

Well Beyond 40

Can changing your diet calm your mind? New science is saying it can. In this episode, I’m talking to Dr. Uma Naidoo about anxiety in women over 40 and why changing what’s on your plate could change your mood. Dr. Naidoo founded the first hospital-based nutrition psychiatry practice in the country, meaning she is on the cutting edge of understanding the gut-brain connection and its impact on hormones and mental health.
From the overlooked nutrients you should be monitoring to crucial dietary shifts and beneficial spices to try, Dr. Naidoo has helpful strategies you can begin using today to support your mind and body.
If you’ve been anxious, struggling with sleep, or generally feeling out of sorts, make sure you don’t miss a moment of this episode!

The Hidden Link Between Stress, Gut Health, and Your Nervous System with Dr. Will Cole
Well Beyond 40
03/12/25 • 59 min
Uncovering the Real Cost of Processed Foods on Your Health
"How we're doing food wrong today is criminal. We need to follow other countries that have banned artificial dyes and make our food supply safer for our families." - Dr. Will Cole
Dr. Will Cole, a pioneering functional medicine expert, pulls back the curtain on the shocking realities of America's food industry and its impact on our health. Fresh from confronting Kellogg's over harmful artificial food dyes at their headquarters, Will shares why thousands of food additives banned in other countries are still allowed in the US, and how this disproportionately affects our most vulnerable communities. We dive deep into the powerful connection between stress, emotional wellbeing, and gut health, exploring why setting boundaries might be your best medicine. Will also breaks down the truth about metabolic health, protein consumption for healthy aging, and why finding balance in our wellness approach matters more than following extreme protocols.
What you’ll learn:
- Why the US allows thousands more food additives than other countries and how this impacts public health
- The concerning connection between processed foods and behavioral issues in children
- How stress and emotional health directly impact your gut microbiome and overall wellness
- The critical markers for optimal metabolic health that your doctor might not be tracking
- Why "JOMO" (Joy of Missing Out) could be the medicine your nervous system needs
- The truth about protein consumption and aging - finding balance between extremes
- How to recognize signs of nervous system dysregulation and what to do about it

"It's a victim mindset to identify yourself with something that's holding you back." -Ben Azadi
I had an incredible in-person conversation with Ben Azadi that's going to revolutionize how you think about your metabolism. Ben's journey from obesity and depression to becoming a leading voice in metabolic health proves what I've always said - mindset shifts must come before lasting physical transformation. We dug deep into the science of metabolic flexibility and why it's absolutely critical for women over 40. No more confusion about carbs or lengthy fasts - Ben breaks down exactly how to train your body to efficiently use both fat and sugar for fuel, plus the game-changing connection between your thoughts and cellular health that most doctors never discuss.
What you'll learn:
- The proven mindset strategy that must precede physical transformation (skip this and you'll keep hitting the same wall)
- Why being stuck in sugar-burning mode is aging you faster - and how to fix it
- The truth about ketosis - it's a tool, not a lifestyle (and how to use it correctly)
- A revolutionary approach to exercise that builds metabolic resilience without burnout
- The hidden danger in restaurant foods that's sabotaging your health (and how to avoid it)
- Why your thoughts literally program your DNA and impact inflammation
- How to use hormetic stress strategically for better aging

5 Foods I Eat To Lose Weight + Build Muscle Over 50
Well Beyond 40
03/16/25 • 21 min
If you're over 50 and think losing fat and building muscle is impossible, I have great news! After years of testing, I've identified five essential foods that can transform your body composition. These protein-rich powerhouses - grass-fed beef, wild salmon, Greek yogurt, pasture-raised eggs, and collagen - are the foundation of a diet that supports muscle growth while fighting inflammation. The secret isn't just about eating protein; it's about consuming the right kinds with their unique amino acid profiles, bioavailable nutrients, and metabolic benefits. When you prioritize these foods, you'll experience increased energy, reduced cravings, and improved recovery within days. This isn't another diet fad - it's a sustainable approach to nourishing your body for strength and vitality in your prime years.
What you'll learn:
- Why grass-fed, grass-finished beef provides unique nutrients like creatine, CLA, and omega-3s that support muscle growth
- How wild salmon's astaxanthin and omega-3 content makes it superior to farmed varieties for inflammation reduction
- The surprising benefits of Greek yogurt's slow-digesting casein protein (if you've healed your gut)
- Why the bright orange yolks in pasture-raised eggs signal higher nutritional value
- How collagen supports connective tissue strength - critical for injury prevention when strength training
- The importance of protein's thermic effect and its role in reducing cravings
- Simple ways to incorporate these foods into your daily routine for maximum benefit

Well Beyond 40
06/14/23 • 38 min
No matter which stage of menopause you’re in, you are not going to want to miss this episode...in fact you might want to listen to it more than once.
My guest on this episode, Dr. Mary Claire Haver, might be my new soul sister. She’s the author of The Galveston Diet and a board certified OB-GYN who has devoted her adult life to women's health. When she began to experience the changes of menopause and midlife weight gain, she created her online program, The Galveston Diet—the first and only nutrition program in the world created by a female OB-GYN, designed for women in menopause. As part of her ongoing research, she became certified in Culinary Medicine in 2019, specializing in medical nutrition, and opened Mary Claire Wellness in 2021.
If you’ve struggled with menopausal weight gain, tried all the diet plans and exercise routines, and become frustrated with the lack of support around women’s health, then listen up! We’re unpacking what’s really going on in menopause, the types of fat we carry and how they affect our health, the foods that can reduce belly fat, the pros and cons of hormone-replacement therapy, and more!
Stay tuned until the end to hear a stunning success story, learn how you can get a copy of Dr. Haver’s new book, and score your free bonuses.
