Ah! One on my favorites ways is bitter veggies! There are multiple ways to induce our naturally produced GLP-1 and specific foods are certainly a fantastic way to do so. Fiber is high on the list as well as quality fats and exercise even supports GLP-1 production. Intermittent fasting is another way ti support GLP-1 production, but I do not recommend intermittent fasting to everyone. Age, gender, adrenal function, blood sugar regulation and other factors play a role in who is best supported by intermittent fasting.

Great question! In short – Strength training during perimenopause is essential because it helps counter muscle loss, boosts metabolism, supports bone density, and improves insulin sensitivity—all of which are critical for maintaining strength, preventing weight gain, and reducing the risk of osteoporosis and chronic disease as hormones fluctuate.
