Most women are told their symptoms are “just part of aging.”
Fatigue. Weight gain. Brain fog. Mood swings.
Dr. Mariza Snyder is here to challenge that narrative.
In this episode of the 1st Optimal Podcast, we sit down with functional medicine expert and author of The Perimenopause Revolution to break down what’s really happening with your hormones and why so many women feel dismissed, overlooked, or stuck.
This isn’t another surface-level conversation about wellness trends.
It’s a real discussion about what it takes to understand your body, advocate for your health, and finally get answers that make sense.
