113. Why Your Body Feels Stiff, Inflamed, and Off After 40 (Even If You're Active)

Feeling more stiff, achy, inflamed, or sore over 40s - even though you're working out and trying to be healthy? In this episode, we're breaking down why so many women in perimenopause and midlife suddenly feel "off" in their body. We'll cover the reasons behind joint pain, stiffness, slower recovery, and inflammation: from hormone shifts and muscle loss to sedentary lifestyles, under-fueling, stress, poor sleep, and thyroid health.
