PERIMENOPAUSE AND BEYOND: NUTRITION STRATEGIES TO BEAT THE METABOLIC SLOWDOWN

In this webinar, participants will gain a practical, evidence-based understanding of how hormonal shifts during perimenopause and beyond impact metabolism, body composition, appetite, and weight regulation. Attendees will learn nutrition and lifestyle strategies to help patients navigate unintended weight gain, preserve muscle, and support metabolic health—even when long-standing habits no longer seem to work.

Upon successful completion of this one-hour course, the participant should be able to:

Explain hormonal changes during perimenopause and how they influence metabolism and body composition.

Quantify true metabolic changes (what actually slows down-and what doesn't).

Apply evidence-based nutrition, exercise, and lifestyle strategies to support long-term metabolic health.

Identify when supplements may (and may not) be helpful.
