Menopause (Weight Management)

In this context, Cellular Nutrition provides particularly effective solutions by supporting hormonal balance, optimising energy metabolism, and correcting microbiota imbalances.

To understand these mechanisms, the assessment explores several interconnected physiological axes:

• Hormonal: oestrogen and progesterone deficiency causing localised weight gain (abdomen, chest, arms), fluid retention, cellulite.
• Neuropsychic: sleep disturbances (difficulty falling asleep, night waking), low mood, irritability, anxiety, and chronic fatigue linked to hormonal fluctuations and reduced neurotransmitters (serotonin, dopamine, melatonin).
• Gut & microbiota: slowed intestinal transit, dysbiosis and hyperpermeability responsible for bloating, inflammation, and digestive fatigue.
• Metabolic: slowing of basal metabolism, reduced muscle mass (sarcopenia) in case of protein deficiency, increased abdominal fat mass, and greater risk of metabolic syndrome.
• Circulatory: weakened venous and lymphatic microcirculation promoting water retention, swelling, and cellulite.
• Dietary & lifestyle: excessive intake of sugars (cravings, desserts, fizzy drinks), starches or salt, alcohol, gluten, or dairy — all fuelling chronic inflammation, abdominal weight gain, and fatigue.

This assessment highlights the dominant imbalances and identifies priority levers through nutritional optimisation and targeted micronutritional supplementation, in order to support hormonal balance, limit weight gain, and sustainably improve quality of life after menopause.
