Thank you for sharing. I am also wondering what brand you recommend that you use for the supplements that you take. Thank you. Grateful for all you share! Namaste 🙏☮️💖
This reminds me of the novelettes that cocoon the recipes that we search for online. Please put a link to the nutrition and supplements hidden in the long storytelling.
I’ve followed the podcast but I guess I can’t figure out how to access the show notes to see the specific recommendations you mentioned about supplements and which protein powder you recommend. There so many out there. I do not have allergies or sensitivities so would you share the one you use. Thanks for your videos…inspiring!
I am so glad I found your channel. I saw you on Cynthia’s podcast and it was so helpful. If you don’t mind me asking what type of HRT are you on? I am speaking with my doctor next week about HRT. Thank you!
By what type I think you may mean what form of bHRT? If I'm wrong let me know. I've tried several things but am currently on the patch for E, oral progesterone and topical cream T. Hope that helps.
I'm postmenopausal to. If there is something that has worked for you diet wise-not being on a diet but what you eat everyday and you've lost weight please share :-)
Eating high quality protein at each meal, supplementing with protein powder when you can't do that and considering essential amino acids. Tracking your protein to know how much dietary protein you get? Food first as a rule. Then if you can't supplements can help get you the rest of the way.
Hello, I'm 43 years old, I had a hysterotomy and it's been two years since I've been in menopause. The changes are big and my bones are the biggest problem. I've been on a healthy diet for 4 years and I've lost 21 kg, but now I have a problem, I eat what I shouldn't, I can't control myself. My stomach started to grow and I gained 5 kg, a disaster.
I'm the same after surgically induced menopause 😭 it's been such a shock where I've literally aged 15 years in a few months. Before surgery I was really fit and slim, never had any problems with diet or motivation. It's as if I woke up one morning and couldn't believe what I was seeing in the mirror, it's like I'm trapped in a different body that doesn't feel like it's mine.
So sorry that's happening. Do try boosting the protein and being sure (you don't mention it) that stress is in check. Protein has a huge satiety factor and helps preserve lean muscle mass which might be the problem.. we need more of that for metabolic health and metabolism
I tried creatine and the one I got tasted so horrible I threw it away. I now have a cherry and apple powder creatine from ‘Applied Nutrition’ (I’m not selling anything here no links see ) and it’s quite nice, I add a splash of no sugar squash to make it even nicer. I make bone broth and take unflavoured collagen powder in everything, I put it in coffee and my soups and my creatine drink too. I use a blender to make sure the collagen powder dissolves well, that seems to need a good whizz to melt in better.
@@donnalee2310 you know the juice concentrate that you put water in to dilute it? In England they call it ‘squash’, in Scotland it’s just ‘diluted juice’. Im Scottish but live in England so I had to get used to saying squash. There are the ‘no sugar’ varieties too, so a splash of that is fine to just add a bit of extra zing
@@Zeneyez Oh my goodness! Thanks! I had no idea. How cool you are so far away and we can communicate like this. I’m in Texas. I can definitely do that and I’ll start getting my creatine that way! I am also taking the collagen powder but I find it easy to mix. We have squash here but it is a vegetable so it just wasn’t making sense to me!
@@donnalee2310 Haha, yes we also have butternut squash here, sort of small long pumpkin type thing? Yeah, don’t put that in the creatine drink! 🤣 I was just looking up the cherry apple one I have by Applied Nutrition, it’s a UK co, but I’m sure you’ll get some decent flavoured one in Texas. I know Whole Foods also sold the one I have, as I was in their shop here, but I got mine on Amazon, a bit cheaper that way. I also sometimes add a splash of apple cider vinegar too, that adds a bit extra tartness. Experiment! The healthiest way to have a cocktail 🤩
Hi Debra, when you speak of the amino acids, are you referring to BCAAs or something different and if so, are the essential amino acids better for menopausal women? I'm 58 and use protein powder every day and was thinking of adding the amino acids and creatine because I'd heard they were good for building muscle. Also, I've been taking a collagen powder for a few years now and I take one with 5 different types. Is it better to take one with all 5 or those with just 2 or 3 as they may have more concentration of the necessary types? As a side note to you mentioning your friend breaking her ankle, I broke the toe next to my big toe on my left foot this past February (on my youngest son's birthday no less) by dropping a full can of dairy whipped cream spray straight down on to it. (maybe that was a sign that I shouldn't eat it!😄) and it took me about 6 weeks to finally heal and feel no stiffness or soreness. I imagine the collagen did help with my recovery as well.
Interesting. Been re-conditioning for 3 yrs (to be able to lift heavier weights than a shopping bag and to re-establish glute strength for stairs and floor.). In the last 6 months have been using decent weights and compound exercises. Went for my 2nd dexa scan - 6mths from the 1st. Bone density has improved - 2.1%. 1% increase in fat. Interestingly the fat has transferred from my abdomen to my hips. So, the fat has redistributed from the organs to the pelvis (can literally see it on the scan) - safer for metabolic risk. Risk went from high to medium. In the last 6mths my rehab trainer has spent a lot of time developing back, ab and arm strength (rows, pull downs, cable crunch, ball bridge and, after 3.5 yrs, adapted push ups). I guess the fat has been scared away ! It’s heading south. Spot fat loss is achievable but it takes a lot of commitment. Thanks for the tips on increasing muscle - will be working on it in the next 6mths.
congrats! You flipping nailed it! This is great! And appreciate your sharing so others understand this is happening every day for women who shift the way they were exercising to what works for specific goals!
Hi I'm 58 postmenopause. I'm learning from you and a few other ladies on TH-cam about health at this stage of life. I'm doing creatine 1 leveled tsp in the mrg B4 a workout. Is this ok. I'm 5'7 132lbs. Looking to get to 140lb and do maintenance.
Debra I'm so confused. I just watched a video on the Zoë Health channel here on TH-cam. With prof Tim Spector, UCL, and prof Cyrus Cooper, Oxford, Both really highly respected research scientists, some of the most respected here in the UK. Prof cooper specialist interest rheumatology and bone health, he just said supplementation in vitamin d has a slight detrimental effect in his trials and also echoed in recent Australian trials. I was taking vitamin d because I live in northern Europe but now not so sure. Problem is the science is shifting so much.
The professors should explain if these people in the studies were taking only vit D. Magnesium for example is essential as a mineral and supports the role of the Vit D I never take one without the other and I always test my vit D levels
@@Flipping50TV unfortunately I’m in the UK we don’t have this kind of testing, I get the impression things are very different in the states. Here you are treated by symptom. But we don’t pay for treatment or doctor’s visits etc. bone scans are done if you are at risk or have a break etc not on request. It’s very confusing when Europeans watch American, Canadian TH-camrs the health system and approach is different. Not your fault just the way it is.

Protein, essential amino acids, creatine, vitamin d, magnesium, omega 3, sleep, collagen, calcium, macha, melatonin
No melatonin for me. No calcium for me though some women do.
Watch that melatonin. New studies show it causes heart problems. It sent me to the cardiologist.
List the supplements
Would you please list the supplements and a recommended brand? TIA! Love your content!
My goal is to look amazing at 60 too! You look great Debra. I still have 4 yrs to go so working on Muscle mass is my goal☺
Thank you! You’re on your way!!
Great tips.
It’s wonderful to get information about being mature from a person who is mature like I am. Tons of great information, thanks for sharing.
Older yes, mature… not so sure!!
I don’t see the list of supplements that you discussed in the video. Thank you!
I don't see them either. Does anyone out there have a link to the supplements they can post in the comments? Thanks!
Thank you for sharing. I am also wondering what brand you recommend that you use for the supplements that you take. Thank you. Grateful for all you share! Namaste 🙏☮️💖

Detrimental on bones
The professors should explain if these people in the studies were taking only vit D.
Magnesium for example is essential as a mineral and supports the role of the Vit D
I never take one without the other and I always test my vit D levels
Best way to know is watch your muscle, bone and levels… and ask about d alone or with magnesium or k
