Women's Healthcast: Health and Aging: Weight and Wellness, Part 1, featuring Kate Sample, MD

Over the last few months, the Women’s Healthcast has focused on how aging can affect our health. For the last final episodes in the Health and Aging series, we consider the impact of aging on metabolism – including societal implications.  

Kate Sample, MD, associate professor in the Division of Academic Specialists in Ob-Gyn, joined the Women’s Healthcast to share her insight into changes in body composition that come with age. In part one of this interview, she talked about natural changes in weight, muscle mass, and bone density that come with age, the effects of life stages such as pregnancy and menopause on metabolism, as well as how hormonal changes affect our bodies.
