    I've been on a Dr. Sims binge this week & this is by far my favorite interview!
    Even though she's not saying anything different from what was reviewed on other podcasts, how these particular questions brings out her message in such a concise way, covering things only glossed over elsewhere, and really letting her lead the way organically without steering more towards the interviewer's concepts & understandings, it's amazing
    Thank you so much!

      That’s so funny same here. I came across her with one interview that was extremely dense and full of really technical jargon and now I want to keep listening and learning from her to life, fully understand all the details she can share. The power is in the details in this case and this interview definitely brought out great applicable information. 🙏 Thanks

    This was one of the best interview that I have heard so far with Dr. Sims; in the sense that a lot of other interviews is focused on athletes at different stages of their life while training still competitively. I am at the beginning of my menopause journey though almost sixty years old and though the protein and high intensity and heavy resistance training is always mentioned in the interviews, but for the first time I understood that early menopause training can be like peri menopausal training! I have been doing weights for the past 6 months and have a way to go to achieve 3-5 reps for 3-5 sets just to avoid injury 🙏🏻

    LOOOOVE Dr Sims! It is incredibly refreshing that science (and the world in general) is starting to pay closer attention to the nuances of women’s health. Dr Sims is dead on when she says that women are not just small men-we are complex and amazingly adaptive creatures! If one doesn’t agree or hasn’t thought about this, consider all the changes a women’s body makes through each trimester of pregnancy! Research in health is necessary, but I personally find women’s health to be much more fascinating than men’s health (it’s not my intention to degrade men here) . To me this kind of research is akin to studying chemistry vs biochemistry 😊

    @pkstiever 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +38

    Stacy, does this protocol mean even when a postmenopausal woman is on HRT with estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone replaced? I would think that the replacement still makes us way lower than younger women. I am on HRT and have so much more stamina than other women my age, but certainly can't compete with a young female top athlete. I do resistance training and HIIT along with yoga. My HR gets up for sure with HIIT. I just learned that I have to take at least 6 capsules of creatine to get 3 grams! I was only taking one! Thank you-I love this!

      @@26evajdiazget a referral to a specialist and state clearly you’ve had no period for at least 12 months and indicate severe symptoms. Do your research and come to your appointment prepared with printed documentation of current research showing the preventive benefits of lifetime HRT. That or have partial or full hysterectomy. That will guarantee HRT but you still have to ask for it and indicate you accept any risk. The testosterone you will only receive if you indicate sexual dysfunction (no orgasm). Remember they start you on the lowest possible dose so schedule your follow ups every 60 days and don’t settle for less than 85%+ better as far as symptoms go. They can’t test levels of E or P but will ask for annual draws for T as it’s not FDA approved for women yet. You may need 5 appointments in a year to get the right levels of E and P so be prepared to keep going. I needed 4 appointments to get to what my mom and aunt take 2mg E, 200mg P, .75gm T. HRT usually solves nearly all symptoms. They literally start you at .5 and raise it another .5 which is irritating but that’s the protocol. Some women take more than I do but mine is the low end of the higher dose range. It’s different for everyone. And don’t forget estrogen cream for you vaginal and urinary health. Atrophy is not good and you may need direct treatment as a preventive of that. Good luck!

    Wow, you just explained why I hated and could not tolerate cold showers, why they made me feel not invigorated, but flattened, anxious and ear-achey. I persisted and persisted and it never went away, I felt awful after them, so eventually I stopped. I felt like some kind of cold plunge failure. This winter I got chillblains on my hands - red and swollen - from the air temp being about 8 degrees celcius, so there's your Reynauld's type responses for you.

    What kind of protein do you suggest? I've been trying to up my protein without supplements by using whole and unprocessed foods but this is difficult to do without also increasing my fat intake. I am not against fat - in fact, I'm happy to eat good plant based fats (olive oil /nuts etc) but I end up eating more than the recommended amount in order to increase my protein. I am also keen to eat more plant based proteins but I'm not vegetarian or vegan. Can this be done or do I need supplements?

      I start my day with oatmeal mixed with hemp seeds and nuts and fruits. Sometimes add pureed silken tofu for more protein. It has okay protein, carb, and fiber mis in my opinion. Lunch something with either chicken or fish. A snack of greek yogurt with blueberries. And then dinner is bread with some deli or cheese or avocado or something else. It does not give me 116 gr of protein, though. i rarely manage that on food alone. I;d add 20 gr of protein powder. Best way to find out your macros is to weigh and record with a food app what you eat in a day. Only for a few weeks to better understand the nutritional profile of what you eat and then you can make adjustments.

    There’s about 2.2 pounds in 1 kg which means 1.6 g per kilogram equals .76 g/ lb.
