I found this video accidentally and have watched it several times in addition to another Ted talk you did. I also subscribed to your you tube channel. I am 54 and post menopause. I have struggled with so many issues since about age 50. If only I had this information a few years ago! Thank you!
Thanks for this! Finally, and desperately I found a functional medicine clinic December 2021. At 61, I’ve been post menopausal for 12 years, and no Dr ever discussed hormonal supplement with me. Along with many other health aspects, we are addressing my hormonal balance and it is life changing! In only 3 months of eating different, supplements and embracing my health as my priority, I have hope and I feel like my future is bright! I’ve lost 26 pounds so far, and another 80 to go, and I will get there!
Janet would be interested to hear more please?😃
@@marianneellman480 what in particular would you like details on?

What did you find most helpful!
With recovery...
I am a completely changed woman!!!
No energy,no life
I just stumbled upon this video. I just turned 60 this week. I am vegan. I struggle with depression, anxiety, insomnia, crying everyday and alcohol. I'm going to watch all of your videos on your channel after this...hoping this ends.
Such an important message! Let's spread the word about healthy hormones and aging! Thank you Cynthia!
Thank you for your message and sharing all the ways we can heal our bodies naturally!
This school year in England, after a huge campaign, Menopause is is being taught as part of the National Curriculum, how I wish that had happened in my day, and more companies are investing in staff training to understand how this can effect women. I’m still finding out information for myself and struggling. Hopefully young women will be prepared for this time in their lives.
Such an important message for women of all ages.
EXCELLENT!! Thank you so much Cynthia!!
Not long after the start of the talk I knew she was talking about menopause! HRT really helped me
YES!!! It is wonderful to hear all of this from such a new viewpoint. Great work Cynthia - this is going to help a lot of people. WELL DONE.
Amazing job as always, Cynthia! Great work.
Love her. She knows what is saying. Best Doctor
Great info. I am definitely passing it on. Wish I had this 15 years ago.
Thank you for this amazing talk so inspiring. As a menopausal woman it is great to have people talk about the Craziness we suffer in this time with strategies and perspective
You are an awesome, beautiful, intelligent woman. Thank you so much for the valuable information. Please continue to do more TED Talks ! We need more women like you !
Thanks for speaking on this very important issue. As you point out, women live to 84 now, and we need to understand how to navigate these peri menopausal years more effectively with current and accurate information. For me the anxiety is more of an issue than the other more classic symptoms. I am 48 and feel like I hit menopause over night without a lot of preparation from the women in my family who are older or from society in general. Typically "middle aged women" are not seen as vibrant, valuable, or integral in the North American culture unfortunately. I appreciate your generosity in posting this. Please keep this conversation going with these intelligent examples of professionally trained women.

Wow! I am in peri-menopause. I was wondering why I had suddenly started eating like a mad woman. Thank you for this Ted X talk. It is an answer to prayer.
Love your show.
Each on their own. Lifestyle and background.
Amen! Most people charge to help others with information like this.
Thanks so much!
OMG, thank you so much.
Such an important topic to talk about, Cynthia does an amazing job with the information she provides!
I totally agree 😍❤
Very informative & affirmative. Thank you.
Thank you
This was so good . 👍
thank you because it is fruitful information for us......
Lovely talk
As my hormones are out of control. Im glad to have found this video.
THANK YOU
Thank you Cynthia and TEDx! Much of the advise is also helpful for all genders but this is essential for women to watch
Yes yes yes! OMAD changed my life! 47 year old right here! 👋
I have been living the OMAD/vegan life for 9 years now. Started off weighing 534... 5'4. I weigh 120 now. It works for me! Thank you
@@DinaHavens what is OMAD?
@@lisatoledo6380 One Meal A Day.
Very educational, I'm learning alot. Thank you.
you are welcome!
I thought peri-menopause was bad, then the menopause came, and it was like hitting a brick wall.
Doctors don’t help.
Food is key, and eating a lot less of it.
Food is key, you are right, but as important as the amount, is what we eat!
Let’s focus on the positive message ,
Post-menopause is great, enjoy life as a free woman!
Thank you so much. You are reminding me why I lived intermittent fasting. I do use MACA for the reasons you stated. My husband gets good results also...😉 My question is what amount of MACA do you suggest? Thanks I’m a follower!!
Hello! I just realized your comment was a year ago, so you may not even see this, but curious what supplier you use for maca, I want to get a trusted company that is cruelty free if possible and haven’t found one yet:)
Wow 👌🏿 👏 Excellent
Good speaker 👍
She is so beautiful and passionate of what she is talking that has motivated me to do what she say. I am starting today intermittent fasting and making some changes to sleep well. Thank you!
Are you seeing results? Hope u r still going on with advice. Just saw this video today🙂
Thank you! In addition to the S.A.D. (Standard American Diet), many people must deal with unhealthy institutional practices of very limited bathroom breaks (leading to dehydration) and as little as 5-10 minutes for lunch (eating for fuel under duress), elevating stress hormones.
I'm glad that I can play this and go to another tab. The pacing back & forth makes me anxious and I stop listening if I actually watch.
It's interesting to me that in german there is a common word for perimenopause (Wechseljahre = "years of change") but I don't know if there is a non-clinical term at all for menopause, it's just called that, only with german pronounciation.
I was slim untill late menopause and the weight gain happened. Everything she talks about. Happened me. Could not for the life of me pull myself out of it. Knew in my head what was wrong, but the fog does not let you think straight
Same
Mine is my liver and menopause
I'm not sure what's the greatest most impactful change. Probably veggie oil removal. My wife changed nothing else and lost 10 pounds in 2 weeks. I was filling our whole family with that posion, sorry to them and me. Dramatic changes for everyone. Much better moods all around after just that change. Please eat more animal fats. Cream, butter, lard tallow. Do not fry foods in veggie oils at all.
Those supplements you mentioned, especially Maca, How much do you take a day? I know you can add it into smoothies, 1tsp or 1T.?
For maca, I've been adding ~5gr to my coffee for several several years now. I also add ~5 gr of chia seed for the bulk/fiber. I first add the maca in the hot coffee and stir it because I was tod that it should be cooked
(I use a blender bottle that I shake. I believe the shaking act as convection. Just be carefull because the sudden heat release create pressure inside the bottle and can open the lid, spewing coffee on the nearby wall. Shake a few times then open the cap to release the pressure. Close again and shake for 30 seconds.)
After letting it cool a little, I add the chia seed because it shouldn't be cook to preserve the omegas.
Hope it is helpful.
I turn my wifi off at night and in the morning spend 20 minutes getting a connection. But healthier having it off
You talk about 8 hrs sleep Cynthia I'm 65 and suffered from insomnia for about 40 years + using sleeping pills, the most sleep I get is about 4 hrs a night I worked as a nurse for 44 yes!!
Definitely work with a functional or integrative medicine specialist to figure out how best to support your sleep :)
👍👍👍
At age 45, I went to my OB/Gyn telling her I was having perimenopause symptoms, and she said "you're not old enough for that!". What!!!!
wow! Find a new healthcare provider....women can enter perimenopause in their late 30's
I went through at 39 , just like my mom .
I love fasting
I got the answer right. The brain for sure.
You speak the truth nothing I didn't know but stand still all the pacing back and forth got me dizzy
Anyone know the name of those several supplements she mentioned? I only got Maca root. How about the rests? Thanks.
Ashwagandha / Rhodiola Rosea
🍀🌼🌞
SENT TO MY HARD WORKING EXECUTIVE VICE PRESIDENT SISTER TO WATCH SO IMPORTANT TY TY 🙏🙏🙏🙏
India Ogilvie, don't miss this post.
Cynthia, the pacing back and forth while you're speaking makes me dizzy. Just saying.
I couldn't agree more. I had to stop watching, and just listen.
Which herb is she talking about right after mentioning ashvagandha around 11:45 into the video? Thanks to anyone who’d please share their experience with it 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Didn't get that one too
Maca
Rhodiola rosea
What was name of eyeglassess ?
swannies and uvex
wow.....how is it POSSIBLE that she NEVER heard of peri-menopause? I’ve heard of it
The term “peri-Menopause” wasn’t coined until the 2000’s, along with the symptomology Some of us ladies that are in this phase of our lives didn’t grow up hearing anything about it because “it” was never recognized as “a thing” in Western medicine.
Please give her a podium so she can keep still. Her walking is too much distraction!
The only thing I have to say is, when you walk back and forth on the stage, it makes me dizzy. I’m sorry to say it, but I can’t watch you for a long period of time because of that. I have to turn away. You’re a great speaker and motivates me. Thank you.
Scroll down and just listen, that has been my solution to attending her talks.
Great speaker on a great topic but her pacing drives me nuts!
::watches this in bed::
What is the deal with your pacing and always playing to the audience ti your left? Getting sort of dizzy here.
You should stand still when talking... the subject matter is great but your pacing is very distracting.
Cynthia describes herself as an introvert on her Facebook page so going up on stage will be a big deal for her. Pacing will be her nerves kicking in
yes exactly omg im dizzy
It’s a normal way to release nervous energy
Please stop pacing. I'm very, very interested in what you're talking about, but the pacing is extremely distracting. Thank you.
lol
I wish Cynthia would walk around the stage less. It makes me nervous and a distraction to watch her and concentrate less on what she is saying.
Would it not make more sense for you to listen and not watch. It is a ted Talk 😳
@@linarush1393 e
Emmmp
Yes!
My thoughts exactly, made me anxious
I liked the content of this video but her body movement constantly made me not able to watch.
Please stand still ! I would love to train you on public speaking! Stop distracting your audience by walking non stop.
Disagree with the WIFI comment. Your body can’t detect cell phone, WIFI radiation. You need to be able to relax after using phone or computer to get solid sleep.
Then we blame men for all our problems
Question: Why are all these women on TED videos drop dead gorgeous? Are there not any other normal women? And apparently, libido is very important to her. Says a lot.
