Episode #116 Featuring Cynthia Thurlow PART 2! THE MENOPAUSE GUT:  Balance Your Microbiome to Reclaim Your Health in Midlife and Beyond   My DEAR FRIEND and Colleague Cynthia Thurlow makes her SECOND appearance on my podcast EXACTLY ONE YEAR to the date we recorded this episode together!  God always has his way of working!  Cynthia is far beyond brilliant... She is passionate and caring along with a deep drive and motivation to make a REAL difference.  She is the epitome of compassion and care!  Her drive to travel all over the world to make a difference, going non stop and still having a large family shows her willingness to do whatever it takes to spread her message.  I am honored and privileged to call her a close friend of me and my wife and it is my honor to showcase her to the world and bring her new book to light for everyone!     This episode is not just meant to promote her new book, but to give deep insight into her work and passion behind it.  We start with the discussion of the work and effort it took to create her new book, what inspired her and why she felt the topic of the gut was imperative to change the lives of everyone!  We take a deep dive into menopause and how the gut plays a key role in how women make it or break it during this stage of life.  Cynthia shows deep compassion for women that are suffering and has made it her life's work to help women overcome one of their biggest struggles in life.  We then take a turn into eating habits, specifically as it relates to our children.  There is a discussion on how there is a significant need to make it a priority to instill proper eating habits into our children's lives but to also set the examples ourselves for them as parents and role models.  We then talk about the role the immune system plays in our gut health.  This section of the discussion may be one of the most impactful because many are unaware of how imperative of a role the immune system plays.  We then shift into the topic of overtraining and how truly detrimental it is for our health, short and long term.  Then we get to the topic of testosterone specifically to women and how important it is to check and regulate, ESPECIALLY during menopause.  We then cover hormone replacement therapy and how the polarization needs to stop!  Then we shift to the huge importance of sleep and circadian rhythm, followed by a discussion on supplements, specifically the recommended or ideal ones to use during menopause.  We end the conversation with a long conversation on the role of fiber in health!     Cynthia's knowledge and passion are showcased in this interview and once again, I want to reiterate the honor and pleasure of not only interviewing but calling her a true friend!  DO NOT MISS THIS EPISODE!!      Check out Cynthia's Homepage and Buy her new Book: https://www.cynthiathurlow.com/       Follow Cynthia on Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/cynthia_thurlow_/     SAVE 20% of Pique Life Nandaka https://piquelife.com/dylan     Today's episode is sponsored by TIMELINE!    To PURCHASE MITOPURE visit Dylan's landing page and use code DYLAN to save 20% OFF!! https://shop.timeline.com/DYLAN   _______________________________________________________________________________ Qualia Life Supplements:  Save 50% off PLUS AND ADDITIONAL 15% off with my code DYLAN   www.qualialife.com/dylan       The worlds FIRST EVER Topical Glutathione at AURO WELLNESS!  SAVE 15% with code "DYLAN" https://aurowellness.com/dylangemelli           Get the Apollo Neuro for $99 OFF!!
