Dr. Suzanne Gilberg-Lenz is a nationally renowned doctor, expert, speaker and advocate for integrative women's health. Her book, Menopause Bootcamp: Optimize Your Health, Empower Your Self, and Flourish as You Age, is out now.

What you'll learn from this episode:

  • Less than 20% of OB-GYNs have had training in menopause, but it’s a normal part of life that women need not fear. 

  • How sexual function provides a window into your overall health. 

  • The importance of sleep for your mood and health, why you should practice good sleep hygiene, and herbal remedies to help you fall asleep and stay asleep. 

  • How we need more protein as we age to prevent muscle loss, and the protective effect of lifting heavy.

  • Why fiber is important for hormonal health, and which hormones are responsible for hot flashes and mood disturbances (along with strategies to relieve these symptoms). 

  • And so much more!
