@dietitian.reinekhater: Comment HORMONES and I'll help you understand what's happening in your body during perimenopause. 💛 Have you noticed that your LDL ("bad") cholesterol and triglycerides have increased after 40, even though your eating habits haven't changed? During perimenopause, declining estrogen affects how your body processes fats. Your liver becomes less efficient at clearing LDL cholesterol from the blood, and changes in insulin sensitivity can also contribute to higher triglyceride levels. This means these changes are often driven by biology not just your diet. The good news? The right nutrition, resistance training, fiber intake, healthy fats, and lifestyle strategies can make a real difference.
