When it comes to health, the term "inflammation" gets thrown around a lot… but what does that mean exactly and why is it exacerbated during perimenopause and menopause?

In this episode of The Hormone Hub, I break down what it means to have chronic inflammation and the different ways it can show up in our body.

Signs of chronic inflammation:
Can last months or years
Ongoing fatigue and lethargy
Digestive disorders – bloating, IBS and reflux
Rashes, eczema, psoriasis, rosacea or other skin afflictions
Being overweight and having trouble losing weight
Fatty liver, insulin resistance and Type 2 diabetes
Aches and pains
Ongoing headaches or migraines
Heart disease
Heavy periods and problematic cycles
Autoimmune conditions

It is entirely possible to reduce inflammation in your body and the reality is that your diet and lifestyle is either helping to keep inflammation at bay or it's driving it.

And of course… I'll share the details of the choices you can make!
