I am back for another Sunday myth-busting live.

I say another as if I do these all the time.

This is my second one.

So that makes it a series and I've committed to it for at least as long as I have nothing to do on Sunday evenings.

Which who knows? Might be a very long time. We don't know. Okay, I have some very good

questions here, but if anyone has any live, let me know. Actually, the first one I want to

talk about is, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, um, insulin resistance during perimenopause,

which might sound like quite a boring topic, but it's very, very important.

And the reason I want to talk about this is there's quite a lot of videos going around or

I've been sent specifically a certain video and a certain post by two different people.

And they're both, one of them is more legit than the other one right but one of them

is a doctor and shares good information and nothing they say is wrong and this is when it gets a

little bit hard for people to kind of wrap their head around because what they're saying is correct

but what they're implying is not correct or more worryingly to, whether it's not correct or not,

it's kind of besides the point of that.

It's that people feel like scared and like there's nothing they can do.

So essentially what these things are saying is that when you go through parimenopause,

because of the drop in estrogen, you become less sensitive to insulin or in other words, insulin resistant.

Or increases your insulin resistance. This isn't untrue. Like this may happen to many women, especially if they're not taking HRT because of the role of estrogen in helping clear blood glucose or essentially making

your cells more insensitive. However, that then makes people think, and often what's kind

of either outright said by these people or at least implied by these people is that like,

you now can't lose fat like fat loss becomes like completely
