They are calling it a hormone revolution.  With almost half of Canadian women between the ages of 40 and 60, there are just a few of us (myself included) who are embarking on a hormonal transition that few know anything about.  In today’s episode, I clear up what is related to your hormones after 40 (and what isn’t) and what is happening to your body during each transition stage (yes there is more than one stage!).  In this episode we cover:  The “stages” of perimenopause What is happening hormonally in your body, and why you feel the way you feel.  What testing makes sense, and what you shouldn’t waste your money on.  Why feeling better in this stage of life is vital to your future health and the health of our communities.  Today’s podcast episode is sponsored by Smart Solutions. I’ve worked with Smart Solutions as an educator for two years and am encouraged by their continued dedication to providing evidence-based products and solutions to women to support their health needs.   Perimenopause and menopause can leave women feeling confused, overwhelmed, and stressed about their hormones. That’s why it’s important to have practical solutions to stop symptoms from getting in the way of their day. Smart Solutions offers products that contain ingredients, like chaste tree and sage to help ease the symptoms in perimenopause and hot flashes in menopause. Other ingredients, like ashwagandha and Rhodiola, are offered by Smart Solutions to help ease stress so women can focus on the important things in life.   Use my promo code JORDAN10 at checkout for your next order at smartsolutions.com to receive 10% off your order.
