Low Carb Not Working After 45? Here's Why (And How to Fix It)

If low carb isn’t working after age 45, you’re not alone—and you’re definitely not doing anything wrong.
In this episode, I break down exactly why low carb stops working after 45, especially during perimenopause and menopause, and what’s actually going on inside your body. If you’ve been eating clean, cutting carbs, and still not seeing results (or even gaining weight), this will finally start to make sense.
We’ll cover:
- How hormonal changes after 45 affect weight loss
- Why low carb can slow your metabolism instead of speeding it up
- The connection between cortisol (stress) and stubborn belly fat
- How cutting carbs can impact your thyroid and energy levels
- Why fibre and gut health matter more than you think
- And most importantly… what to do instead so your body starts responding again
This isn’t about trying harder, eating less, or cutting more foods.
It’s about understanding what your body actually needs now.
If you’ve been feeling stuck, frustrated, and like nothing is working anymore—this could be the missing piece.
