Menopause chatter is everywhere ⬇️

This is a topic that is finally gaining the attention it deserves.

But with that increased visibility also comes a wave of mixed messaging and, at times, misinformation.

As a member of the Medical Advisory Committee, I see first hand how important it is to ground this conversation in evidence-based, individualized care.

Menopause is not a one-size-fits-all experience;
it’s a complex physiological transition that deserves thoughtful, informed support.

Btw, men gain weight midlife too!

Performing artists: energy drinks don’t actually give you energy—food does. 🍎

Energy drinks provide a stimulant, caffeine, but they
don’t provide your body fuel to move ⚡️

Use them wisely, not as a replacement for food! 🎭

Facts

Did you know bone is living tissue? ⬇️

When you strength train, you stimulate bone-building cells, increasing density and resilience. After age 40, bone mass declines about 1% per year (this rate increases after menopause) unless countered by resistance training and mechanical loading.

AND Muscles and Bones commuicate! Mucle-Bone cross talk happens as both tisses act as endocrine organs sending signals (myokines and osteokines) that influence both their functions. 💪

Strength training isn’t just for muscle, it’s essential for staying strong, stable, mobile and independent. 🦴

SWIPE! ➡️

Had such a great time at this past week!

At the New York Restaurant Show, I spent the day exploring the latest food trends, innovations, and technology shaping the future of the foodservice industry in the Northeast. 🍽️

As an exercise physiologist and sports nutritionist,
it’s always fascinating to see how evolving restaurant
menus, ingredients, and food concepts intersect with
the way we think about health and nutrition. 💪

And to top off a great day, we went to dinner at in Hudson Yards and enjoyed a delicious variety of dishes including my personal favorite the Roasted Beets, Elderflower-Yogurt, Lemon,
and Crispy Chickpeas.

Kudos to Chef for this elevated dining experience.

Think the number on the scale tells your health
story? Think again. 🛑

Here are 6 ways to assess health risk
beyond the scale and why...

1️⃣ Blood Pressure: Healthy numbers indicate a
stronger heart and lower risk of chronic disease. ❤️
2️⃣ Muscle Mass: maintaining muscle supports metabolic health, strength, and long-term mobility. 🏋️‍♂️
3️⃣ Waist Circumference: is a better predictor of health risk than BMI as excess “belly fat” i.e visceral fat increases risk for heart disease andinsulin resistance. 🌟
4️⃣ Grip Strength: Strong hands = marker of a
stronger body and better daily function. ✊
5️⃣ Blood Sugar: stable levels reduce risk of insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, inflammation and damage to blood vessels and organs. AND helps maintain even levels of energy and even mood! 🍎
6️⃣ Cholesterol: Balanced cholesterol supports
heart and blood vessel health, although there are more advanced and accurate markers of cardiovascular health
available now as well. 🩺

Size is NOT the best predictor of metabolic health...

Here are the key points to take away:

Cardiovascular Risks: Metabolic markers are far superior to BMI at predicting risk of heart disease and dèäth.

It is estimated that 30 million Americans have
“Normal Weight Obesity” (NOW)

It is the high level of visceral fat, not the size of the body alone, that influences inflammation and disease risk including high blood pressure and insulin resistance which contribute to risk of heart disease and other chronic conditions.

Fitness is protective. Sedentary is harmful to health.

Adequate muscle and movement can help reduce the
risk of metabolic dysregulation regardless of size or weight.
