Episode 530: Understanding Your Hunger Hormones in Midlife

from Grace & Grit Podcast · host Grace & Grit LLC

You have been told that hunger is weakness, that managing your appetite is a matter of discipline, that wanting food is a problem to override. None of that is true — and believing it has kept you in a war with your own body you were never supposed to be fighting. Your appetite isn't a willpower problem — it's a hormonal signaling problem. Courtney breaks down ghrelin and leptin, explains how declining estrogen disrupts your hunger and satiety cues in midlife, and gives you practical strategies to recalibrate your hunger system so you can stop fighting your body and start working with it.
