The Menopause Weight Loss Trap: GLP-1s, Muscle Mass, and Metabolism with Dr. Jumana Al-Deek

Dela

On this episode, Dr. Sadaf is joined by family physician and metabolic health expert Dr. Jumana Al-Deek to discuss everything you need to know about the intersection of weight loss, resistance training, and hormone optimization during perimenopause. This episode dives deep into everything related to metabolic health, from preserving skeletal muscle while using GLP-1 medications, the life-saving benefits of vaginal estrogen for recurrent UTIs, and why visceral fat increases due to insulin resistance and falling hormones. Dr. Al-Deek also shares her expertise to spotlight how weight gain and systemic inflammation impact female libido.
