The Truth is HRT is SAFE to use for Menopause Relief and the benefits outweigh the risks. HRT can help rebuild bone, reduce the risk of Alzheimer's, heart disease, and colon cancer, and alleviate menopause symptoms like hot flushes. Nothing works like giving back what the body is missing. In this episode of Moving Through Menopause, Phillipa is joined by Dr. Malaika Woods, a Certified OBGYN and Functional Medicine Practitioner. FREE GIFT Download your Moving Through Menopause Guide https://precizion.co.uk/menopause-for-beginners/ We discuss the benefits of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) for menopause management and debunk misconceptions about its risks: 📍The benefit of estrogen really outweighs any potential minimal risk 📍More women will experience Heart disease than breast cancer, although that's what we're afraid of 📍 HRT helps to reduce the risk of Alzheimer's - 30 to 50%. 📍HRT helps to reduce the risk of heart attack and stroke - 30 to 50% 📍Oestrogen is the one thing that actually can rebuild bone. All the other fancy treatments that reduce bone loss also have a lot of significant side effects. 📍HRT let's get your levels right 📍Phytoestrogens VS HRT 📍Holistic approaches to health Dr Woods emphasises the importance of Progesterone, Oestrogen and Testosterone in alleviating menopause symptoms and improving overall health. That said, no amount of HRT will combat detrimental lifestyle choices and we both agree that the best recipe for Menopause Management harnesses natural approaches including movement, nutrition, sleep, and managing stress alongside hormone support. There is not a ONE-SIZE FITS-ALL fix for Menopause and Dr Woods encourages personalised approaches that can help women thrive through menopause and beyond. 00:00 Introduction to Oestrogen Benefits 00:46 Meet Dr. Malaika Woods 01:41 Understanding Female Hormones 03:30 Getting the Hormone Levels Right in Peri and Postmenopause 09:36 Problems with the Women's Health Initiative Study 14:33 How does Functional Medicine approach Menopause Support 17:32 The Role of Testosterone for Women 18:42 Natural Approaches to Menopause 24:18 Personalised Medicine and Hormone Therapy 33:42 Conclusion and Resources Sincere thanks to Dr Malaika Woods https://drwoodswellness.com/ Disclaimer: Please note that any information we provide in this podcast does not constitute medical guidance.

In this episode, I am joined by Leslie Kenny. (Founder of Oxford Healthspan and the Oxford Longevity Project.) Leslie took biohacking to new levels when she reversed her diagnosis of Rheumatoid arthritis and 'lupus'.
Lesley was determined to heal herself and now she shares her account of the self-experimentation that eventually led to her recovery.
Autoimmune conditions like Rheumatoid Arthritis and thyroid disturbances commonly 'rear their heads' during the perimenopausal period. Western Medicine doesn't always have the answers and Leslie's story is a testament to the role of lifestyle medicine to transform our health and wellness.
Now she shares her experiences to help us navigate the menopause transition with our health intact.

Biohacking Your Way Through Midlife and Menopause
Menopause is a significant life transition that can bring about a myriad of changes and challenges for women. In a world where traditional medical approaches may fall short, exploring alternative methods such as biohacking can offer new perspectives on managing menopausal symptoms and optimising health.
Biohacking is a term people use to describe 'do-it-yourself health'. Biohacking involves making incremental changes to achieve a specific goal related to well-being. By optimising health through tailored dietary choices, supplementation, and lifestyle modifications, individuals can harness the power of biohacking to support their well-being through the tumultuous journey of menopause.
If you are struggling with any or all of the symptoms associated with Menopause I strongly encourage you to tune in to your body's changing needs and make the changes necessary to take charge of your health.
The Secret of Spermidine; A Life-giving Molecule
Leslie introduced me to spermidine, a natural polyamine necessary for cell rejuvenation. Spermidine has been shown to promote cellular rejuvenation or autophagy.
The process of autophagy has implications for the development of disease and ageing. On the other hand, optimising cellular 'waste management' and rejuvenation is an important consideration if we want to remain fit and healthy into older age. Try incorporating spermidine-rich foods to enhance cellular renewal and combat age-related decline.
Spermidine Rich foods include:
Embracing Lifestyle Medicine and Holistic Wellness
By embracing biohacking principles, exploring the benefits of spermidine, and integrating lifestyle medicine practices, we can pave a path towards vitality, resilience, and holistic well-being.

In this podcast episode, I learn more about anxiety management during menopause with anxiety warrior Heather Lillico.

Understanding Anxiety as a Menopause Symptom:
Menopause is a significant period of transition for women and can sometimes cause a surge in anxiety levels. This is due to the changing hormonal levels that influence the emotional centres in the brain including the Hippocampus. Anxiety can lead to panic attacks, they present as rapid heartbeats, sweaty palms, a sense of impending doom, and an inability to think logically. Despite its uncomfortable nature, anxiety isn't dangerous to the body. and we can learn to recognise these physical symptoms and deal with them.
Creating Healthy Habits to Beat Anxiety:
Do not underestimate the importance of cultivating healthy habits for anxiety regulation. Making practices such as yoga, mindful eating, and meditation can boost our feelings of self-worth and self-determination, which can significantly impact anxiety levels.
Consistency is key; tiny, everyday changes like spending a few minutes in meditation, moving the body in a supportive way, or incorporating mood-boosting foods can lead to significant transformations in your life.
Try it out for yourself
Anxiety and menopause might seem like an insurmountable challenge, but it is entirely possible to navigate this path and come out stronger with an improved quality of life.
The combined effect of engaging the mind and body using yoga, adjusting food habits, and practising meditation can work wonders in managing anxiety. As Heather rightly points out, consistency and regularity in these actions can lead to positive and transformational changes in dealing with anxiety during menopause.

Where do we begin when we consider lifestyle changes?
Begin by evaluating the current state of affairs before making any changes. This step is crucial because, without an understanding of where you are now, it’s impossible to determine the ‘route’ you need to take.
Joe suggests evaluating various aspects of your life, including nutrition, exercise, sleep, stress management, hydration, and overall lifestyle. This evaluation will serve as a baseline and help you identify where to begin on your health journey.
The Importance of Data Collection
Are people truly transparent about their habits and behaviours? Perhaps not. Using technology to track and collect data such as Apple Watch, Fitbit, and Garmin, it is possible to capture essential data points like steps, sleep, heart rate, and calorie intake. This data-driven offers accurate insights into an individual's habits and a means to track progress.
Ditch Crash Diets
Crash diets are not sustainable and can wreak havoc on our metabolism. Instead, we advocate for a lifestyle shift, it is important to adopt sustainable healthy habits and be held accountable for our actions.
Strength Training for Women
A common misconception is that strength training will make women bulky. We agree that strength training is vital for maintaining muscle mass, especially during menopause. With age, muscle mass naturally declines, but strength training can reverse this process, increase metabolism, and help achieve a fit and healthy body. It is important to consider fitness levels and implement a phased introduction to strength training if it is new to you. Start with bodyweight exercises and gradually increase either the number of repetitions or the load.
Movement for Mental Health
I have experienced firsthand the effects of movement on both physical and mental well-being. It can be a balancing act to find the right ‘prescription’ so stick with it until you discover a combination of nutrition, movement, and mindfulness that works for you.
Final thoughts
Embracing a healthy lifestyle is a lifelong journey that requires a shift in mindset and a commitment to sustainable habits. Ditching crash diets, focusing on good nutrition, supporting gut health, and incorporating strength training can be a great recipe for health.
Remember, it's never too late to start; evaluate where you are, make educated choices, and embark on a journey of empowerment and self-discovery. With the right support and mindset, you can achieve and maintain a healthy body for years to come.
