19 | Is Gluten Causing You to Feel Bloated & Gain Weight? The Truth About Grains
Welcome back to another episode of the Master Your Metabolism After 40 Podcast:
If you're feeling more bloated since hitting your 40s or are post-menopausal, today's episode is for you.
Bloating, weight gain, and fatigue can be especially challenging during perimenopause and menopause.
