What Happened To A 52-Year-Old Woman's Menopause Belly When She Took Trace For 8 Weeks
Her size 12 jeans wouldn't button in the fitting room. The salesgirl brought pull-on jeans with a stretchy tummy panel and told Tracy's daughter, "Most women her age end up in these."
Tracy is 52 and works the front desk at a veterinary clinic in Springfield, Missouri. She counted 1,200 calories a day through five years of menopause, and her belly grew anyway, so she blamed her age.
Here are the six things that changed it, starting with the fitting room where her jeans wouldn't button. The one that worked is ten drops of cleansed zeolite and shilajit in water, twice a day.
1. Before: The jeans that wouldn't button in the fitting room
Her daughter Megan took her shopping for her 52nd birthday. Tracy grabbed the same size 12 jeans she'd bought for ten years, and the button stopped two inches short of the hole. Megan asked for the next size up.
The salesgirl, maybe twenty, came back with pull-on jeans with a stretchy tummy panel, handed them to Megan instead of Tracy, and said, "Most women her age end up in these." Tracy bought them so she could leave.
In the car she cried, and Megan pretended to read her phone.
Skip the tummy-panel jeans2. The five years before: 1,200 calories, and the belly grew anyway
Tracy had been on a diet since her thirties. Points. Shakes for lunch. 1,200 calories counted on an app, no bread, no wine, a walking video every night in the living room.
When menopause came, her arms and legs got thinner and her belly got bigger. At her yearly physical her doctor looked at the scale and said, "Welcome to your fifties." She wore a long cardigan every day, even in July.
Every diet cut down the food going in. None of them took anything out of the belly she already had.
Stop starving the belly3. Day 0: The pharmacist slid the diet pills back across the counter
A week later Tracy set a box of menopause belly pills on the drugstore counter. Carol, her pharmacist for twelve years, slid it back. "Know why so many pills come in a smaller dose for older patients?" she said.
"After 50 the body clears everything slower. The lead and mercury and plastic that come in on food, you used to flush most of it. Now more stays, and your body parks it in fat.
After menopause, it parks it right here." She patted her own stomach. "That's why it grew while you dieted."
Find out why the belly grew4. Day 1: Ten drops from the pharmacist's own purse
Carol pulled her own bottle of Trace out of her purse under the counter and pressed it into Tracy's hand. Cleansed zeolite, a volcanic mineral shaped like a cage.
It's cleansed first because raw zeolite comes out of the ground already full. Empty, it grabs heavy metals and toxins in the gut and carries them out. Shilajit puts 70+ trace minerals back.
"Ten drops in water, morning and night," Carol said. "Eat what you eat. Stop counting." Tracy left the pills on the counter and took her first ten drops at breakfast.

Week 1, nothing in the mirror. She was more regular, and that was all. Week 2, the scale hadn't moved and she almost quit.
Week 3, Dee, one of the vet techs, stopped her in the hallway and asked what she was doing different. Tracy hadn't seen it yet. That night her work slacks buttoned without her sucking in.
Week 6, eight pounds down, the belly she'd blamed on her age was flat enough to tuck in a blouse, and the long cardigan stayed on the hook.
Flatten the menopause belly6. Week 8: Back in the same fitting room, a size down
Eight weeks later, Megan took her back to the same store. Tracy buttoned a size 10 standing up, one size under the jeans that wouldn't close.
The same salesgirl called through the curtain, "Want me to grab the stretchy ones?" Tracy pulled the curtain open and let her look. One bottle is 60 days: 10 drops in a glass of water, morning and evening.
