In this video, we’re going to talk about the best way to lose weight if you’re postmenopausal.
I’ve done many other videos on this topic where I cover five things:
1. Lower your carbs to less than 10 grams
2. Fast (one meal a day)
3. Add exercise (and long walks)
4. Get plenty of quality sleep
5. Avoid alcohol
What if you’re already doing all of these things, and you still can’t seem to lose enough weight?
First, let’s talk about the pituitary. The pituitary gland produces many different hormones. One hormone is called FSH—its purpose is to tell the ovaries to make estrogen.
However, after menopause, your ovaries no longer create estrogen. This means that FSH levels stay high because the ovaries do not send feedback to lower FSH.
FSH also happens to make fat. This is a big problem because it can make weight loss very difficult.
After menopause, your cortisol levels increase. This may also contribute to difficulty losing weight.
There are a couple of things you can do to prevent these issues:
1. Take Myo-inositol
2. Take royal jelly
