Beskrivelse
*Episode is in Danish. In today’s episode of One Thirty Biohacks, we sit down with Kristine Bernhoft, functional medicine practitioner and nutrition therapist, to talk about perimenopause and why the mental side is so often the first and most confusing part of the transition. We dive into the symptoms many women don’t connect to hormones at all: disrupted sleep, anxiety, lower stress tolerance, mood shifts, brain fog and the feeling of “not being yourself.” Kristine shares her practical, root-cause approach built on functional medicine, with more than 15 years of experience working with women’s health, hormones, gut function and metabolic balance. She explains how she uses blood work, DNA and hormone testing to connect patterns, understand what’s driving symptoms, and translate complex data into realistic, personalized plans. This episode covers: • What perimenopause is and how early it can start • Why mental symptoms are often the first clue • How sleep, hormones, stress and mood are deeply connected • The most common myths that keep women confused or dismissed • Practical foundations that help: sleep protection, nervous system support, nutrition, movement and smarter self-support Learn more about Kristine’s work here: https://www.kristinebernhoft.com/about-me Please note: This episode is for educational purposes only and does not constitute medical advice.
