This week on the podcast certified life coach Andrea Morton interviews Alyssa Vest, a Family Nurse Practitioner located in American Fork, Utah who specializes in Functional Medicine and Anti-Aging Medicine. Alyssa shares a wealth of information with listeners, focusing on the typical problems that women and mothers experience in midlife including hormone imbalances, fatigue, gut issues, anxiety and other mood disorders, weight gain, insomnia and more.
Alyssa is passionate about digging into the root cause behind symptoms that her patience experience. In today’s show she gives examples of different kinds of testing that a functional medicine practitioner can provide to women in midlife that will help get to the bottom of the health issues that they may be experiencing.
She also gives a great explanation of how hormones are affected by peri-menopause… and there are many more ways than listeners may imagine! Alyssa also covers a wide range of solutions available for women in midlife who are looking to create more robust, vibrant physical and mental health.
This fantastic episode will be a breath of fresh air to any woman who has ever been rushed out of their doctor’s office after a five or ten minute visit, and given a prescription that covers some of their symptoms but doesn’t really solve the underlying problem.
As a bonus, podcast listeners will LOVE Alyssa Vest! Her compassion and warm manner make learning about these important midlife topics seem like catching up with a dear friend.
