Weight Gain: Dirty Menopausal Trick


This blog post discusses the challenges of weight gain during and after menopause, a problem that affects up to 90% of women. It explains that the weight gain, which often accumulates around the abdomen, is due to a combination of lifestyle, genetics, and hormonal changes, particularly the reduction in estrogen. The post also outlines how sleep deprivation and stress can exacerbate weight gain. The author emphasizes the importance of a paradigm shift in weight management strategies, including changes in diet and exercise, to maintain a healthy lifestyle during this transition.
