In this episode, I sit down with Kim Ressler, an expert in nutrigenomics, to explore why many women begin to struggle with fatigue, sleep issues, and energy loss in their 40s and 50s. Kim shares her personal health story and why understanding your genetics can help you make sense of health changes in midlife and guide you to practical, customized decisions about food and supplements.
Why am I so tired all the time after 40, even when my bloodwork looks normal?
Kim says many women in midlife experience fatigue, sleep problems, and other symptoms despite normal labs. She explains that genetics can play a role, and traditional blood work might not capture underlying issues that genetic testing can reveal.
How can nutrigenomics help with midlife health changes in women?
Kim explains that nutrigenomics looks at how your genes influence nutrient needs and metabolism. She says personalized nutrition for women 40 plus can highlight where your body may need specific support, so you spend less time guessing and more time targeting what will help you feel better.
What does personalized nutrition look like for midlife women—and is it accessible?
According to Kim, genetic testing that looks for actionable nutrition-related genes can now be done with a simple cheek swab at home. She says the results can be used to customize supplement blends and guide food choices that fit your unique genetic blueprint, helping with issues like tiredness, sleep, and metabolism.
