Did you think exercising is the only way to lose that extra hormonal weight gain?

Your hormone imbalances like estrogen dominance, adrenal stress, insulin resistance could also lead to weight gain because of Toxins accumulated in your body.. Sauna is one of the best low cost ways to deal with it.

I'm Dr. Menka Gupta,Functional Medicine doctor, I look at the root causes of hormonal imbalances like stress, inflammation, metabolic dysfunction and more.
The sauna isn't just about sweating.
It is a full-body hormonal reset button.

Here are 5 science-backed ways of Sauna that really help.

1. LOWERS CORTISOL (stress hormone) Activates the rest and repair system, reducing baseline cortisol over time. This stops pregnenolone steal and improves weight management, cycle regularity and PMS. (Source 1)
2. BALANCES OESTROGEN & SUPPORTS PROGESTERONE Enhances liver detox and clinically helps excrete hormone-disrupting chemicals (BPA, PFAS, xenoestrogens) via sweat, reducing symptoms of oestrogen dominance. (Source 2)
3. REDUCES SYSTEMIC INFLAMMATION Lowers inflammatory markers (like CRP and IL-6), balancing s*x hormones and easing painful periods and supporting healthy ovulation. (Source 3)
4.IMPROVES INSULIN SENSITIVITY Heat mimics exercise, helping cells uptake glucose via Heat Shock Proteins (HSPs). Critical for managing PCOS and stubborn weight. (Source 4)
5. BOOSTS MOOD HORMONES Elevates BDNF and endorphins, stabilising mood swings and supporting overall hormonal resilience. (Source 5)

Your Supplement might be right, but your timing may be wrong.

As a Functional & Longevity Doctor, I see this daily.

When you align nutrients with the body’s natural rhythms, absorption improves and symptoms may reduce faster.

Swipe through to learn the most effective timing, clinical dosage ranges and early symptoms of deficiency for the nutrients many people get wrong.

This guide covers magnesium, vitamin D, iron, probiotics, omega-3, B-complex, zinc and more.

If you’re dealing with fatigue, poor sleep, hormonal symptoms or low energy despite supplementation, it’s time to consult your functional medicine doctor for your personalised plan.

Hi,I am Dr Menka Gupta recently one of my patients came in to me with her body upset stomach, nausea, bony pain and frequent urination.

A strange restlessness she couldn’t explain.

She had done everything right.
Daily Vitamin D.
Higher dose, because Instagram said so.
More sunlight. More supplements.

Her blood work told the real story.
Vitamin D wasn’t low.
It was too high.

As a functional medicine doctor, I see this more often than you’d think.

Vitamin D is powerful.
It regulates immunity, calcium balance, mood, inflammation and even hormones.
But more is not better.

Excess vitamin D leads to hypercalcemia which means higher levels of calcium in the blood.

Vitamin D toxicity usually isn’t life-threatening, but can cause issues such as kidney failure, abnormal heart rhythm, unsteady gait and confusion.

Here’s what I want you to remember:
• Vitamin D is a prohormone, not a casual supplement
• Dosing must be individualised, not trend-based

Talk to your functional medicine doctor who can help you reach your optimum Vitamin D levels.

Liposomal delivery supplements are a smarter way to give your body nutrients.

Instead of using regular capsules or tablets, these supplements use liposomes which is tiny bubbles made from healthy fats.

These bubbles carry nutrients like vitamins, antioxidants through your digestive system.

This means more benefits, better absorption, fewer wasted doses and enhanced support for your energy, immunity and overall wellbeing.

Leaky gut or increased intestinal permeability, is when the lining of your small intestine becomes damaged, creating gaps that let undigested food, toxins, and bacteria leak into the bloodstream, triggering inflammation and potential immune responses.

Take the FREE Quiz which has set of simple questions to help understand whether you have leaky gut or not. Thereafter you will be sent a report .

Next step - If there is an indication of Leaky Gut, you can speak to your functional medicine doctor who will help you prepare a customized treatment plan for you.

Most women in their 40s think they need to eat less to feel lighter.

In reality, they probably need more fibre.

As hormones shift in perimenopause your gut slows down, blood sugar becomes harder to control and inflammation rises. Fibre acts like a daily support system. It binds excess estrogen, steadies insulin, feeds your gut bacteria and keeps your digestion moving the way it should.

Women who increase fibre often notice fewer cravings, less bloating, better energy and more stable moods. These changes aren’t accidental. They’re backed by solid clinical research on hormone balance, SCFAs, metabolic health and the gut–brain connection.

If you’re over 40, fibre isn’t optional. It is foundational

Start small, stay consistent and let your gut do the heavy lifting.

Low iron isn’t just about low haemoglobin. The real issue for many women 35+ is low ferritin (low stored iron)

If ferritin is low, your body has low stored iron even if your blood tests say “normal.”

To fix this, we start by fixing ferritin.
Here’s what I focus on in my clinic:

1.Finding the root cause of low ferritin~heavy periods, gut issues, low stomach acid, stress, inflammation

2.Improving absorption by healing the gut, improving menstrual flow and adding vitamin C to help iron uptake.

3.Choosing the right form of iron. Chelated iron bisglycinate is gentle, better absorbed and less likely to cause constipation or bloating.

4. Tracking labs every 8–12 weeks to rebuild stores safely.

When ferritin improves, energy, hair growth, metabolism and mood all follow.

Iron is one of the most important minerals for women, yet it’s also one of the most commonly missed in regular blood tests. Low iron or low ferritin can drain your energy long before anemia shows up.

~Why your body needs iron

Helps carry oxygen to every cell so you can think, move and recover well

Supports metabolism and thyroid function

Strengthens immunity

Essential for healthy hair growth

Symptoms of low iron or low ferritin

Fatigue that doesn’t go away even after rest

Shortness of breath

Hair fall and brittle nails

Dizziness or headaches

Brain fog

Cold hands and feet

~Low ferritin matters too

Ferritin is your iron storage. You can have normal haemoglobin on your report but low ferritin, which means your tank is already running low.

If any of these feel familiar, it’s worth getting a simple blood test to check haemoglobin, iton panel and ferritin together. Early correction makes a big difference.

Most people think alcohol just affects the liver. Clinically, that’s not true.

Alcohol impacts every major system. It alters neurotransmitters, weakens the gut barrier, accelerates cellular aging, disrupts hormonal pathways and increases systemic inflammation even when routine blood tests can appear normal.

Here’s what I see repeatedly in my practice:

Brain ~Alcohol reduces gray-matter volume, impairs hippocampal function and dysregulates GABA, glutamate and dopamine. This shows up as anxiety, mood swings, brain fog and poor memory.

Gut~It damages the intestinal lining, leading to increased permeability leaky gut microbiome imbalance and chronic inflammation.

Liver~Even low to moderate intake promotes hepatic fat accumulation and oxidative stress, raising the risk of metabolic dysfunction.

Hormones~Alcohol disrupts cortisol rhythm, estrogen metabolism, testosterone production and thyroid signaling.

Sleep~ It suppresses REM, fragments sleep cycles and raises nighttime cortisol.

Early Signs of Aging~Alcohol accelerates telomere shortening and mitochondrial stress, both markers of biological aging.

When you look at the research, the conclusion is clear. There is no safe amount of alcohol for long-term health, cognition or longevity.

If you’re experiencing fatigue, irritability, gut issues, weight resistance, low mood or early aging, reducing alcohol may be the most effective intervention you can make this year.

Your body is designed to heal when we remove what harms it.

You don’t need perfection. You just need the first step.

Your body never stops talking to you. It starts with small nudges… low energy, poor sleep, cravings, irritability, bloating, brain fog.
Most people wait until these whispers turn into alarms.

You don’t have to reach that point.

Functional Medicine helps you catch the early signs, understand what they mean and make changes before your body is forced to “scream” for attention.

If you’ve been feeling off lately, this is your reminder to pause, breathe and check in with yourself. Your future self will thank you for it.

These are my Non- Negotiable Health Habits as a doctor

1. Muscle Building is actually your Longevity & Metabolic Insurance

Losing muscle is the fastest way to age. Keeping it is the fastest way to stay young.

After 40, women lose 8 percent of muscle every decade.

Skeletal muscle is responsible for approximately 75-80% of insulin-stimulated glucose disposal, directly connecting muscle mass to improved insulin sensitivity and metabolic flexibility throughout the lifespan

2. Chrononutrition which is when you eat matters

Chrononutrition is the focused study of the relationship between food, metabolism, meal timing, and the circadian system.

It’s not just what’s on your plate. It’s when you eat that resets your hormones.

Eating according to your body clock supports digestion, blood sugar and cortisol rhythm.

Aligning meal timing with the body’s circadian cycle for optimal glucose and insulin responsiveness, as well as with hormones such as cortisol and leptin that are also affected by circadian oscillations, may be effective for improving metabolic health.

Big meals late at night confuse your metabolic system and affect sleep quality.

Protein rich breakfast first thing in the morning, balanced lunch, lighter dinner is an absolute must

3. If your sleep is broken everything else will be too

Women in their 40s face hormonal shifts that make sleep lighter and more disrupted.

Good sleep is where metabolism resets, detoxification happens and emotional balance returns.

Aim for 7–9 hours, same sleep-wake time daily and a tech-free hour before bed.

Quality sleep reduces cravings, stabilizes cortisol and supports longevity.

Your 40s don’t have to feel like a decline. Build muscle, follow your body clock and fix your sleep.

Your future self will thank you.
