3 Menopause Myths That Keep You Fat, Tired & Miserable

Описание: In this myth-busting episode of Menopause Mastery, Dr. Betty Murray tackles the three biggest lies about menopause that are sabotaging your health and happiness. If you've been told that weight gain is "inevitable," that you just have to "tough out" your symptoms, or that hormone therapy is "dangerous," this episode will set the record straight once and for all.

Dr. Betty reveals the shocking truth: that 5-10% metabolism decrease everyone talks about? It's NOT a life sentence. Those debilitating symptoms like brain fog, fatigue, and mood swings? They're NOT something you have to live with. And hormone replacement therapy? It's actually one of the most PROTECTIVE things you can do for your long-term health.

From the real science behind why you're gaining belly fat (hint: it's not just calories in, calories out) to the landmark 2023 studies showing why women over 40 need up to 50 grams of protein at breakfast, Dr. Betty breaks down exactly what your changing body needs to thrive—not just survive.

Plus, she tackles the outdated Women's Health Initiative study that has terrorized women for over 20 years and shares the latest research showing hormone therapy actually REDUCES your risk of heart attack, stroke, dementia, and osteoporosis when started during the menopause transition.

The 3 Myths Debunked:

-Weight gain during perimenopause is inevitable
-Menopausal symptoms are "normal" and you just have to live with them
-Hormone replacement therapy is dangerous and should be avoided

What You'll Learn:

-Why you need 30-50 grams of protein at your first meal (backed by 2023 research)
-The fiber trick that reduces belly fat in midlife women
-How box breathing (used by Navy SEALs) can lower cortisol and improve digestion
-Why 50% of women are undertreated when doctors only use symptoms to dose hormones
-The real truth about bioidentical hormone therapy and long-term health protection

If you're ready to stop believing the lies and start advocating for yourself, this episode gives you the science and strategies to feel amazing—not just "okay"—during your menopause journey.
