This week on Wellness Wednesday, Starkey Sowers from Clark’s Nutrition tackled a topic many women relate to: shedding those stubborn last 5 to 15 pounds. Drawing on decades of experience, Starkey broke down a simple yet science-backed “one, two, three punch” approach designed specifically for women’s weight loss—especially those dealing with stress, hormonal shifts, or postmenopausal changes.

Key takeaways:

Hydration is crucial. Drinking water throughout the day helps lower cortisol levels, the stress hormone linked to fat storage.
Start your day with 30 grams of protein to stabilize blood sugar and reduce cravings. Clark’s offers tasty, plant-based protein powders to make this easy.
Add MCT oil to your morning shake for fat-burning support—consistent use has been shown to reduce belly fat over time.
Pre-workout essentials: Liquid carnitine and lipotropic formulas help rev up fat metabolism and support hormone balance.
Moro red orange extract and thermogenic aids are great for postmenopausal women or anyone needing to boost a sluggish metabolism.

The bottom line?
