85. Cynthia Thurlow: What Your Doctor Isn't Telling You About Menopause and Metabolic Health
Episode description as stored
What if the symptoms you've been told to "just deal with" during perimenopause could actually be addressed? In this episode of Extend, I sit down with Cynthia Thurlow, a nurse practitioner who left traditional cardiology to focus on women's health and metabolic medicine.
We explore why the medical system has failed women during menopause, the critical biomarkers your doctor probably isn't checking, and how the misinterpretation of one major study has left generations of women suffering unnecessarily. We also discuss why LDL cholesterol might not be the villain it's made out to be and how hormone replacement therapy could be one of the most important interventions for long-term health.
Cynthia Thurlow is a nurse practitioner and intermittent fasting expert. She's the author of "Intermittent Fasting Transformation" and hosts the "Everyday Wellness" podcast. She specializes in helping women navigate perimenopause and menopause through lifestyle medicine and bioidentical hormone replacement therapy.
