Michele Scarlet’s True Health Podcast

If your doctor’s wellness advice actually worked for women over 40, you wouldn’t be here.
I’m Michele Scarlet; Functional Medicine Practitioner specializing in women’s health, metabolic function, and hormone regulation in midlife.
I don’t manage symptoms or normalize fatigue, brain fog, weight gain, or declining health as “just getting older.”
On this podcast, I break down what’s actually happening inside the female body after 40; from hormones and metabolism to stress, detoxification, weight loss, and longevity.

In this episode, we dive deep into the truth behind fat loss and why it’s so much more than the “bro science” of calories in versus calories out. We explore how your nervous system, gut health, hormones, thyroid, and adrenal function all play a critical role in your ability to burn fat. If everything is in balance, fat loss should feel almost effortless—but if it’s not, there’s likely something deeper going on. Tune in to uncover how these systems impact your metabolism and what steps you can take to make fat loss a reality.
