The Real Truth About Menopause Treatments | Dr. Mary Claire Haver

**Dr. Gabrielle Lyon** (0:02)
Welcome to The Dr. Gabrielle Lyon Show, where I believe a healthy world is based on transparent conversations.
In today's episode, I have a very lively conversation with Dr. Mary Claire Haver. She is a Certified Menopause Specialist through The Menopause Society. She is board certified in Obstetrics and Gynecology.
She is a wealth of knowledge on everything, perimenopause, menopause, and hormones. She was a clinical professor at UTMB and The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston, which is a phenomenal institution. In fact, that's where some of the early protein research came out of. In 2021, she opened Mary Claire Wellness, which is a clinic dedicated to caring for the menopausal patient. Because of that, she has gained so much knowledge. She has a very large social platform and her mission is to change the conversation around menopause. She has a new book that will be released in the spring of 2024 called The New Menopause. I have to tell you, I loved talking to Dr. Mary Claire.
In this episode, we discuss, is it safe to use hormone therapy or not? Who should use it and who shouldn't?
What supplements should be used during hormonal transition phases, whether it is perimenopause or menopause?
Finally, the top three tips to support your hormonal transitions. As always, if you like the show, please take a moment to like, subscribe, leave a rating. I do this as a labor of love. The goal is to bring you the experts whom I respect and I think are really adding to the conversation and changing the voice and direction of medicine.
Thank you to Paleo Valley for sponsoring this episode of the show. Eating right doesn't have to be hard, but you do have to be prepared. This is one reason why I love Paleo Valley Beef Sticks. Incredible. One of my favorite snacks. My kids love these. Their beef sticks are 100 percent grass-fed, grass-finished, and are high in omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins and minerals, glutathione, CLA, and most importantly, a source of bioavailable protein that tastes great. They ferment their sticks, which creates naturally occurring probiotics, which are not just great for muscle health, but great for gut health. These taste incredible. They are a great snack for on the go. Throw it in your bag, take it on a trip. There's no excuse not to eat healthy. The only excuse that you have is if you are unprepared.
