Sleep is a hot topic in health. There is ongoing research that links sleep with immunity, mental health, metabolism, sexual dysfunction, and overall longevity. During this episode, we discuss how challenges like stress, screen time, and hormonal changes affect sleep, particularly for mid-life and menopausal women. We start our conversation by talking about the far-reaching impact that poor sleep can have, how hormones can support and interrupt our sleep cycles, and why so many women struggle with obstructive sleep apnea. We discuss sleep tracking and listening to our bodies, unpack the relationship between weight loss, exercise, and sleep, and how a Mediterranean diet can improve overall health and sleep.
