1. The Impact of Menopause on Cellular Health
Dr. Bhanote explains how menopause contributes to a decline in mitochondrial function, which plays a crucial role in energy production and overall cellular health. This decline can lead to weight gain, hair loss, and chronic diseases. She stresses the importance of lifestyle interventions—such as optimal sleep, personalized nutrition, stress management, exercise, mindfulness, and supplementation—to support cellular health during midlife.
2. Gut Health and Its Role During Menopause
The episode highlights the role of gut health in managing menopause. Dr. Bhanote discusses how changes in the microbiome during perimenopause can significantly affect overall health and longevity. Maintaining optimal gut health is crucial for preventing chronic diseases like cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, and Alzheimer’s.
