Menopause Reimagined with Andrea Donsky
Menopause Reimagined is a weekly podcast hosted by Andrea Donsky, a registered holistic nutritionist with over 20 years of experience, author of Nourishing Menopause, and published menopause researcher whose work documented more than 103 signs and symptoms of perimenopause and menopause.
Every week, Andrea talks with doctors, naturopaths, researchers, and women living it about the things that actually change your day: sleep and the 3 am wake-up, brain fog, weight and body changes, gut health, anxiety and rage, libido, and what to do when your doctor tells you it is just stress. Nutrition, lifestyle, supplements, and hormones, whichever route you choose.
Andrea is in menopause herself. No topic is off limits. You are not crazy, and you are not alone.
