In this episode of The Michele Broad Show, we're answering three women's health questions about the changes that can catch us by surprise in our 40s and 50s.
Laura, 51: "Why is my cholesterol suddenly high?"
"Michele, my cholesterol has always been fine. Now I'm 51 and my doctor says it's high. I eat the same things and exercise like I always have. What happened?"
Jennifer, 48: "Why am I gaining weight when I haven't changed anything?"
"Michele, I'm gaining weight, especially around my middle, but I really haven't changed what I'm doing. Why isn't what used to work working anymore?"
Denise, 54: "What should I actually be paying attention to now?"
"Michele, I keep hearing that I need to be more proactive about my health now, but proactive about what? What should I actually be paying attention to at this age?"
Three different questions, but one important conversation about understanding your changing body and making informed decisions about your health.
