When it comes to shift work struggles – there are many! From chronic fatigue and tiredness to sleep-deprivation, having no energy to exercise, weight fluctuations, a depleted immune system, digestive complaints, nervous system dysregulation and a disrupted family and social life. It’s certainly not easy working 24/7 and you’re not alone in feeling this way. In this podcast, Audra speaks with experts on sleep, nutrition, weight management, stress relief and a realm of other topics relevant to shift work health. Audra also interviews current and former shift workers from an array of different industries and occupations, who are essentially the real experts behind working 24/7. This fun, informative and engaging podcast will leave you feeling motivated and inspired, and that you’re not alone in feeling like some kind of weird, nocturnal animal stuck in a wheel going round and round in circles.

HSW 106 - Peri-Menopause, Menopause and Belly Fat (Part 2)
Monday Dec 18, 2023
Monday Dec 18, 2023
We're continuing on from episode number 105, where we discuss the correlation between declining hormone levels and the difficulties experienced by many shift working peri-menopausal and menopausal women in wanting to lose weight.
We talk about the influence of another sex hormone - progesterone, and how it's decline leads to an elevation in the stress hormone cortisol, and subsequent increase in the distribution of belly fat.
We then wrap up the episode by discussing 3 ways to help lower rising cortisol levels, to help encourage the body to burn fat more efficiently.
