The Truth About Weight Loss, Hormones, and Reintroducing Carbs (Perimenopause-Friendly) Sarah Kleiner answers common questions about carbohydrates, arguing that blaming carbs alone for diabetes and weight gain is shortsighted and ignores lifestyle and environmental factors like circadian rhythm, light exposure, sleep, and grounding. She shares her experience with long-term carb restriction leading to low T3, hormone issues, worsened metabolic health, and weight gain, and explains how adding back healthy carbs has helped many clients—especially perimenopausal and menopausal women—sleep better and lose weight. She distinguishes whole-food carbs from processed versions (e.g., potato vs. chips), discusses carb timing and insulin sensitivity, explains individualized carb needs, and addresses glycation, AGEs, oxidative stress, and deuterium through a “terrain/mitochondria” lens.
