Wondering what you should be eating in your 40s to feel more energised, balanced, and like yourself again? As hormones shift during perimenopause, your nutritional needs change too, often long before most women realise.
This archived listener favourite breaks down exactly how to nourish your body through the hormonal ups and downs of your 40s and beyond, without dieting, restriction, or overwhelm.
Inside the episode, I cover:
- How perimenopause impacts blood sugar, metabolism, inflammation, and bone density
- The five key pillars of perimenopause nutrition
- How to build balanced, satisfying meals that stabilise energy and mood
- Which foods support hormone balance, and which ones make symptoms worse
- Why a Mediterranean-style approach is such a powerful foundation
- Simple, sustainable habits to support sleep, mood, weight, and long-term health
If you’re dealing with low energy, weight changes, brain fog, night sweats, cravings, or just want to feel more grounded and vibrant, this replay will give you clear, practical guidance you can start using today.
Listen to the archive episode and learn how to eat for hormonal balance in your 40s and beyond.
