Ep323: Glutathione: The Missing Link in Fat Loss, Hormones & Energy After 40

In this episode, Tina breaks down glutathione, one of the most overlooked tools in women’s health, especially during perimenopause and after 40. Glutathione plays a key role in detoxification, hormone balance, energy production, inflammation control, and fat loss, yet levels naturally decline with age. Tina explains how chronic stress, inflammation, and metabolic strain can quietly deplete glutathione and stall progress, even when you’re eating well and training consistently. You’ll also learn why many glutathione supplements don’t work, what actually supports glutathione production, and how low levels can show up as fatigue, stubborn weight gain, poor recovery, and hormone symptoms. This episode is for women who feel like they’re doing everything “right” but still feel tired, inflamed, or stuck and want real clarity instead of another wellness trend. Here’s what you’ll learn: - Why women over 40 are often running low on glutathione, your body’s master antioxidant - How oxidative stress silently sabotages fat loss, energy, hormones, and skin health - The surprising ways free radicals are damaging your cells (from UV rays to processed food) - Signs your body might be experiencing low glutathione or oxidative stress - Why dieting, excessive cardio, and stress can actually deplete this crucial antioxidant - Why oral glutathione supplements are a waste of money - How injectable glutathione works and why it’s worth it - Addressing concerns about GLPs + extra injections (why it’s simpler than you think) Glutathione: https://elliemd.com/product/glutathione-injection?bp=tinahaupert Connect with Tina Haupert: https://carrotsncake.com/ Facebook: Carrots 'N' Cake https://www.facebook.com/carrotsncake Instagram: @carrotsncake https://www.instagram.com/carrotsncake YouTube: Tina Haupert https://www.youtube.com/user/carrotsncake About Tina Haupert: Tina Haupert is the owner of Carrots ‘N’ Cake as well as a Certified Nutrition Coach and Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner (FDN-P).
