Maximizing Hormones, Physique & Running Through Perimenopause
#99 - Running, Stress, Gut Health & Gastric Cancers: Is there a link?
Often, the very thing we love, running and endurance training, is silently adding counterproductive stress to our body. While not a sole causative factor in adverse health outcomes, recent research findings have scientists, practitioners, recreational endurance athletes, and runners pausing across the world!
In this episode of Maximizing Hormones, Physique, and Running Through Perimenopause, Louise, one of the world’s leading integrative health practitioners, exercise physiologist, and fitness experts explores the often-overlooked connection between female physiology, gut health, and endurance training.
Drawing on her 22+ years of clinical experience, research, supporting thousands of active individuals at all levels, and her own journey as a dedicated runner reversing stomach precancer, Louise explains how stress, gut health, and hormonal changes intersect during perimenopause and what you can do about it. From the science behind intestinal permeability (that stubborn lower ab “pooch” and bloat) to targeted, affordable supplements and practical fueling strategies, she keeps it simple, science-based, and specific to highly active women who love to run.
You’ll also hear Louise’s candid take on the latest viral headlines and misleading social media spins claiming running causes cancer, why it’s not that simple, and how to critically approach the noise without giving up the sport you love. This episode is equal parts honesty, science, and actionable tools so you can run, live, and thrive with confidence.
If ready to critically think about novel research findings, instead of panic or jump to conclusions, this episode is for you!
