Podcast Episode – Why You’re Still So Tired in Midlife—and the 5 Nutrients That Actually Help
If you’re exhausted in midlife—despite eating well, sleeping enough, and doing “all the right things”—you’re not imagining it.
Menopause fatigue is one of the most common (and least explained) symptoms women experience in their 40s and 50s. Hormonal shifts—especially declining estrogen—affect how your body creates energy, regulates blood sugar, and recovers from stress. And for many women, more caffeine only makes things worse.
In this special best-of episode, I’m revisiting one of the most popular Healthy Her Midlife conversations and breaking down the five key nutrients that help fight menopause fatigue naturally—without relying on coffee, energy drinks, or extreme diets.
We talk about:
-
Why menopause changes how your body uses fuel
-
The role protein plays in stabilizing energy
-
Why magnesium is critical for sleep and nervous system support
-
How B vitamins and omega-3s support brain and cellular energy
-
When iron might be part of the fatigue puzzle
-
Simple food-first strategies to feel steadier throughout the day
I also share personal insights from my own experience navigating fatigue, menopause, and long-term energy management—and how small, sustainable shifts can make a noticeable difference.
