109: Hot Flashes, Cold Facts: Menopause Myths That Won't Die
In this episode of the Movement Logic podcast, Sarah and Laurel take on the most persistent—and profitable—myths about menopause and women's health. From metabolism myths to cortisol panic, creatine hype, and new exercise "rules", they separate marketing spin from actual science.
They also unpack the nuanced role of menopausal hormone therapy (MHT)—who it helps, when it's useful, and why menopause isn't a medical emergency needing endless "fixes."
