  • I really do wish I read this book years ago, but I figured I'd use this video for those that may have the opportunity to get ahead of things.
    This isn't the end-all, be-all, I'm still learning a lot on the subject and navigating new lifestyle changes, but it's a great leg up if you are overwhelmed, confused, not getting answers or just want to discover more about what you're body is up to!
    This is not meant to be medical advice, but I did want to share a recap because this information I believe, is incredibly important.

      yay! Glad you enjoyed it. 💜 I loved creating it. I felt like I was going back to school, but without the exams and more makeup.

      As a 38 year old female who has been picking up on her own subtle changes but is currently being gaslit by medical professionals, that it is everything BUT what I suspect it is .... I reeeeeally appreciate the topic as well. If you ever find any good reads on dealing with cholesterol, I will be 100% tuning into that episode too!
      Aaaand because I realize this isn't a medical channel I'd be curious what your other reads are. I'm currently making my way through Jen Sincero's Bad@ss habits and kind of want to check out The 5 Resets by Dr. Aditi Nerurkar and The Source by Dr. Tara Swart.

    Maca root helped get my periods back on track when I first became perimenopausal. I’ve been on it for more than 2 years with regular periods ever since. It also helped with my mood swings and night sweats.

    I love Lara Briden!! I used her book to track some symptoms for TWO years for information to take back to my doctor which finally lead to a diagnosis, but more than that I was able to use trial and error for what really helped me. She has a third book out now, I’m just on chapter 6! it is an even deeper dive into how the body works, I think you’ll really enjoy it. I had no idea I’d be learn so much about mitochondria lol

      I saw the third book and can't wait!!! 💜 So excited. I'm so drawn to books about the body, biology, well and the mind, but from the scientific point of view these days. With every book I seem to find one or two key learnings that have been game changing. This book had so many nuggets. The Breath book I read also changed my morning routines- what I learned in that book was so helpful. Maybe I'll do a little book review/makeup review video for it as well since I breezed past it over here awhile back. Thanks for sharing!!

    Thanks for sharing, Britt! I gave up sugar and carbs and i noticed my hot flashes went away. About the dairy...Dairy products and butter help butyric acid, something your gut needs. I think hard yellow cheeses are ok, like parmesan, because they are a source of vitamin A and zinc. The white cheeses or soft dairy contain whey which is toxic to the liver. My stomach can't tolerate it so i have to be careful w/ these cheeses and protein powders...

    • @BrittWitkin

      thanks for sharing this! especially about the dairy- I need to dive a bit deeper into it myself because I love all forms haha and even if I try an elimination diet temporarily, unless there is a significant shift, I'll be reaching for it again. 💜 OH I also heard my beloved goat whey may not be great for the liver- I'll have to get labs done to know a bit more, but I'm learning which is great.

    Super clean diet, plenty of sleep, Vitamin K and Bs and daily exercise, including some weights, will usually get you thru in excellent shape. I am 65 and menopause was pretty easy...my dexa scan is good. Of course, if you need HRT, it's there for you.

    Most of all my clients are deficient in magnesium so most people could benefit taking it not just peri-menopausal women. I also advocate if you want dairy, my advice is do raw cheeses, raw milk, raw yogurt. Raw dairy has all the digestive enzymes to digest it. I haven't had any complaints yet........ along with raw goat dairy as well. I actually do both. The reason people can't digest regular milk is because of the homogenization/pasteurization killing off all the wonderful enzymes and probiotics. When you spoke of B-12....I also recommend raw B-12 too. When I was going through peri I could not drink red wine. It gave me major hot flashes and sleep was hard to come by back then. My advice is know it is another shift into the journey of life. Don't fret......be positive and do what brings you love, joy and happiness! Try to hang out with positive people that don't focus on the negative aspects of this natural stepping stone in life. It's not all bad.......there are a lot of good things as well, Britt.

      Thanks for this! I'll need to check out raw goat dairy. Did not even know raw b-12 existed?! Love the life advice as well. I second hanging out with positive people- it's so important. Thank you for your perspective and insights 💜

      Haha, format? Style? Type? They all work 💜 Thanks for letting me know. This was a fun one for me as well. Sometimes the videos I like best totally flop, so it's nice to hear you enjoyed it.
