One of the most noticeable changes during perimenopause and menopause is that our metabolism might seem to slow down.
If you’re in perimenopause or menopause and struggling with stubborn weight gain, energy crashes, or not knowing what to eat anymore, you’re not alone – there’s sisterhood in this season. I noticed, many women in their 40s and 50s are shocked when their old habits stop working, even the healthy ones.
BUT here’s the good news: small consistent changes—especially with your food—can make a big difference. That’s why I created the 27 Quick & Easy Metabolism-Boosting Recipes E-Book – a free resource designed specifically for women in midlife.
How the 27 Quick & Easy Metabolism-Boosting Recipes E-Book Can Help
One of the biggest blocks I hear? “I don’t have time to cook fancy meals.”
You don’t need fancy. You need doable.
That’s exactly why I’ve created the 27 Quick & Easy Metabolism-Boosting Recipes E-book, packed with easy-to-make meals designed to support your metabolism during menopause. These recipes are nutrient-dense, low glycemic, and best of all: you probably already have the ingredients in your kitchen = simple to prepare!
Why Your Metabolism Feels Slower (It’s Not Just You!)
Here’s the deal: When estrogen levels decline during menopause, your body’s cells become less responsive to insulin, triggering insulin resistance that directly slows your metabolism and promotes abdominal fat storage. And it’s not just estrogen. Cortisol (your stress hormone) loves to store fat in all the places you don’t want it.
On top of that, stress, poor sleep, and blood sugar imbalances — and it’s no wonder your metabolism feels like it’s hit a wall.

FAQs About Foods To Boost Your Metabolism During Menopause
Focus on protein-rich meals, healthy fats, and fiber-packed veggies. Choose low glycemic, anti-inflammatory foods that support hormone balance and steady blood sugar.
Lean proteins, fiber-rich vegetables, warming spices (like ginger and cinnamon), and healthy fats like avocado and seeds can help gently boost metabolism.
Smoothies made with nut milk, fiber, and protein (like those in the e-book!) support blood sugar, energy, and hormone health—without added sugar or caffeine.
Low glycemic fruits like berries, apples, and citrus are great options. They’re packed with fiber and antioxidants that support metabolism and hormone balance.
