Great Advice For Post Menopausal Woman

I recently read a great interview between Tom Venuto and David Grisaffi.  David had some particularly great advice for post-menopausal women:

• 
  

  Focus on health, especially heart health, and the fat will come off.

  
  

  
  

  Get you blood work done and know your numbers.

  
  

  • Be advised that a Statin drug causes a dramatic decrease in Co Enzyme Q 10 or CoQ10. This naturally occurring antioxidant is needed for cellular energy in the heart and brain.

  
  

  Exercise is a great way to deal with menopause. It increases the blood flow in and around the heart. Walk if you can’t do anything else.

  
  

  
  

  Monitor blood sugar. When that is too high, it oxidizes in your blood vessels. With high blood sugar, increased insulin is released to normalize your blood sugar and that takes the extra sugar to FAT STORES.

  
  

  
  

  All chronic diseases are associated with insulin dysfunction and glycemic stress? The cluster of symptoms is known as Syndrome X and on your road to syndrome X you may also experience problems with nighttime eating, insomnia, fluid retention, aches and pains, PMS, and much more. When you have syndrome X, your risk for heart disease, diabetes, breast cancer, hypertension obesity, high cholesterol, and lack of ovulation all go up quickly.

  
  

  
  

  Excess body fat also produces it own chemicals that contribute to heart disease. Balancing your hormones in middle age is easier than you think.

  
  

  
  

  Most problems can be managed with proper diet and exercise.
