This came at the right time for me. Found it to be useful and informative. Will recommend to others.

I feel like my metabolism has tanked since menopause, so I was searching for a book to help me take action to improve my health. I found Cara Metz's book, The Menopause Metabolism Fix, to provide clear steps to take to improve my health. I found her writing to be easy to understand and I felt like she genuinely cares about helping to improve women's quality of life.

The book is divided into three sections, the first section is on menopause problems and solutions, the second part is on workouts, and the third part offers recipes that support a healthy diet. I loved the action steps at the end of each chapter in section one. I felt like I had a clear idea of how to proceed with my journey to wellness. I appreciated the second section because it offered quick 15 minute workouts that are scheduled for you through a four week plan. As someone who is quite advanced with weightlifting, I thought this part was more appropriate for an absolute beginner.
I have not tried any of the recipes yet from the last section, but I noticed that they all require many ingredients I do not usually have on hand. I did appreciate that the recipes are labeled as gluten free, dairy free, vegan, vegetarian, and/or high fiber.

I would recommend this book to someone who is starting their journey through menopause. Metz offers sound advice and a clear plan on how to develop healthy habits and a positive mindset that will be helpful in all areas of your life.

Whenever I see a book on menopause I look forward to reading it to get any help and advice I can. Sometimes books on this subject can be quite boring but i really enjoyed this book and found it really informative and interesting.
The book was well laid out and I found the exercise pictures easy to understand and will definitely be incorporating these into my daily routine.
The recipes ideas were helpful although it would have been nice to have some photographs.
Overall this book is great and I would definitely recommend to anyone going through the perimenopause or menopause,
