Perimenopause/Menopause Metabolic Reset
Menopause is not just a hormone change. It is a metabolic transition.
Many women enter perimenopause or menopause and suddenly feel like their body no longer responds the way it used to. Weight gain, belly fat, fatigue, cravings, poor sleep, brain fog, muscle loss, insulin resistance, joint stiffness, and mood changes can all feel frustrating, confusing, and discouraging.
This course is designed to help you understand what is happening in your body and give you a clear, realistic plan to support your metabolism during this stage of life.
Menopause Metabolic Reset focuses on restoring metabolic health, improving insulin sensitivity, preserving muscle, supporting hormone balance, and creating sustainable habits that work with your physiology rather than against it.
You will learn why calories alone are not the whole answer, how insulin and visceral fat affect weight gain, why protein and fiber become more important in midlife, how stress and sleep influence belly fat and blood sugar, and why resistance training is one of the most powerful tools for women in perimenopause and menopause.
This program combines self-paced education with weekly Zoom health coaching through a physician-led shared medical visit format.
The goals of this course are to help you:
- Understand how menopause affects metabolism, hormones, muscle, insulin, cortisol, gut health, and body composition.
- Build simple daily habits that support fat loss, blood sugar balance, muscle preservation, energy, sleep, and long-term health.
