Menopause and Longevity
As a woman approaching her 50s rapidly, I am always interested in the latest information on health and longevity as it applies to me personally as well as my clients. I was aware of bio-identical hormone replacement therapy, specifically from Suzanne Somers books, but hadn’t spent a lot of time studying the specific challenges of menopause specifically until it loomed large in my own life. Now it is front and center. I was turned on to The Wiley Protocol when I listened to the Bulletproof Podcast with TS Wiley, the creator of The Wiley Protocol(How To Have The Hormones of a 20-Year-Old: T.S. Wiley #508). I was particularly intrigued by the overall anti-aging effects TS Wiley spoke of, as well as the general well being that it promotes.
I immersed myself in learning more and immediately purchased TS Wiley’s book on Menopause “Sex, Lies and Menopause.” It was very informative as well as thought provoking. There are many reasons to consider bio-identical hormone replacement therapy, and especially to take charge of your own wellbeing and learn as much as you can. Many women suffer severe symptoms from fluctuating or low hormones. Even if you are not someone who is in Menopause, it is a good idea to learn about the body’s hormones and what they do to keep us healthy.
Aging – as in putting numbers on our birthday cake, doesn’t have to cause us to be debilitated with each year that passes. It is important to know there are so many resources to help keep us feeling good well into our later years. While BHRT isn’t for everyone, it is definitely worth considering and learning about. Check out the podcast and TS Wiley’s books. As for me, I will let you know how it goes!
