Is Protein Nature's Ozempic?

Well Beyond 40 ·

2025/05/04

I'm exposing the truth about how high-protein foods can mimic the appetite-suppressing effects of weight loss drugs but with benefits instead of side effects. When you use Ozempic or similar medications, up to 40% of your weight loss can come from muscle, devastating your metabolism and setting you up for rebound fat gain. Protein, however, works naturally with your body's hunger hormones—slashing ghrelin for 3+ hours, maintaining healthy leptin levels, and boosting PYY—all while providing essential

How to Get Rid of “Bat Wings” Under My Arm

2025/04/27

I'm tackling a question I get all the time—how to tighten and tone those "bat wings" under your arms. This isn't just about vanity; it's about counteracting the muscle loss that naturally occurs as you age. Starting around 30, you begin losing up to 1% of muscle mass yearly due to something called anabolic resistance, and declining estrogen during perimenopause makes it even harder to maintain muscle. But here's the exciting truth—muscle loss isn't inevitable! I've seen amazing women in their 70s,

Tossing aside those tiny pink dumbbells might be the best decision you make for your arms! After 40 years helping people transform their bodies, I'm sharing why those high-rep, low-weight workouts aren't delivering the toned arms you want. True muscle definition comes from understanding what muscle tone actually is—a partial contraction that gives shape even at rest—and that requires stimulating real muscle growth with challenging weights.
