Perimenopause and menopause - Can nutrition (and nuts) help? Episode 41
Description
Perimenopause, menopause, post-menopause . . . terms synonymous with being female. And with this, comes a host of transitions and changes that are inevitable.
What are the best foods, nutrients, and exercise routines, to help prepare women entering this life stage, and help get them to the other side? We asked perimenopause dietitian, Angelique Clark.
We dive into how women can support their body with the right nutrients for mid-life, perimenopause, and post-menopause. We also unpack the lifestyle choices that offer the best outcomes.
From choline and wholegrains, to alcohol and caffeine, and where nuts fit in . . . we discuss it all.
