Your Body Isn't Broken: Weight Loss, Hormones, and Cortisol with Dr Shami

  • Summary

  • Dr. Shamistra Barathan breaks down the science of midlife weight gain and reveals the three missing pieces of the puzzle for women struggling despite diet and exercise changes. Some key points:

    • Weight loss struggles are often tied to hidden hormonal imbalances
    • Calories-in/calories-out model outdated – it's about hormones telling your body to store or burn fat
    • Insulin resistance can exist for years despite normal blood sugar readings
    • Chronic stress creates cortisol patterns that tell your body to store fat
    • Muscle loss accelerates after 40, reducing your ability to burn calories
    • Simple habit changes like morning protein, standing breaks, and basic resistance exercises can create significant results
    • Perimenopause accelerates these challenges as estrogen declines

    Take back control of your health with these practical, science-backed strategies to address the root causes of midlife weight gain!
