Did you know the recommended daily intake (RDI) for fibre is around 25 g for women and 30 g for men?

Most Aussies fall short, but small swaps can make a big difference!

Why fibre matters:
✨ Nourishes your gut microbiome (happy gut)
✨ Helps reduce the glycaemic load of your meals
✨ Keeps you fuller for longer
✨ Supports regular bowel movements

If you want personalised support to improve your gut health, book in with one of our friendly dietitians at Balance Nutrition today 💛

It’s International Women’s Health Week!

Your body, hormones, and nutrition needs change throughout life and that’s completely normal. What worked for you in your 20s might not feel right in your 40s, and that’s okay. 💛

This week is all about celebrating women’s health and raising awareness around the unique challenges women and AFAB individuals face, from hormone shifts and fertility to gut health, PCOS, perimenopause, and beyond.

Nutrition can play a powerful role in supporting:
• Energy and mood
• Hormone balance
• Gut health
• Healthy ageing

Your needs are personal and there’s no one size fits all plan.

💛 If you’re ready to feel more supported and confident in understanding your body, book your dietitian consultation today and take the next step toward thriving at your stage of life.

September is PCOS Awareness Month
- PCOS affects up to 1 in 10 females and AFAB individuals, and while it can look different for everyone, nutrition can play a key role in helping manage symptoms like irregular cycles, insulin resistance, and hormone imbalances. 💛

In practice, we often see the same common PCOS nutrition myths causing confusion and frustration, so we’re busting a few of them for you in this carousel.

✨ There’s no “perfect” diet or one size fits all approach
✨ It’s about supporting your hormones, energy, and overall wellbeing in a way that feels sustainable for you.

Swipe through for 7 things that will help you feel more in tune with your body, your energy, and your food choices - without the stress.

Feeling hungry by 3pm?

If an apple or packet of popcorn isn’t holding you over until dinner, your snack might be missing the right balance.

For a snack that actually satisfies, aim to combine two (or more) of these:

✔️ Protein – e.g. Greek yoghurt, boiled eggs, cottage cheese
✔️ Healthy fats – e.g. nut butter, avocado, olives
✔️ Fibre – e.g. veggie sticks, berries, wholegrain crackers
✔️ Carbohydrates – e.g. oats, wholegrain toast, banana

Balanced snacks help keep energy levels steady, curb cravings, and prevent that late afternoon slump.
