About this episode

The episode discusses the challenges women over 40 face in losing weight and explores the underlying health systems affecting their well-being.

A lot of women hit their 40s and feel like the rules suddenly changed. The diet that used to work stops working. Weight becomes harder to lose. Energy drops. Sleep gets disrupted. Hormones shift. And most of the advice they're given is either incomplete or misses the root cause entirely. In this Podcast, I sit down with functional nutrition practitioner Dani Conway to discuss what's really happening beneath the surface. We cover hormone health, metabolism, thyroid function, gut health, fasting, peptide use, and why focusing on symptoms often keeps people stuck. This isn't about chasing shortcuts. It's about understanding the systems that drive health, performance, and body composition so you can make decisions that actually move the needle. https://chrisduffin.com / Coaching, Peptides, Supplements, eBooks & Merch, Education, and my Free Community!
