The US have released their new and improved dietary guidelines that will shape public health policy, school canteens, and individual dietary planning. This pyramid is focused on whole foods and omits sweets and treats entirely. Already there are teams for and against. What are your thoughts? 🧐

Meal prep isn’t just about saving time.

Did you know the right meal prep can actually support your hormones, gut, and metabolism—especially as we move through our 30s and beyond? Most women I see feel overwhelmed by conflicting nutrition advice, but it doesn’t have to be complicated.

Here’s the secret: prepping hormone-friendly meals is about simple swaps and smart planning. For example, adding fibre-rich veggies and healthy fats (think avocado or olive oil) has been shown to help balance blood sugar and support gut health (see: Slavin, 2013; Medlin, 2022). Just 30 minutes on a Sunday can set you up with nourishing lunches all week—and your energy, mood, and waistline will thank you!

If you’re ready for easy, science-backed meal ideas tailored to your hormones and lifestyle, let’s chat. Book a virtual or in-person consult with me at DNA Nutrition Group and let’s make healthy eating effortless.

Is your body’s metabolism working for you or against you? 💡

Your hormones might be the missing piece! 🧬 Insulin, for example, plays a critical role in balancing your blood sugar—but it also contributes to fat storage, especially around the tummy. 😮

The good news? You can take control of your weight loss hormones and optimise your metabolism with the right strategies! That’s exactly what we focus on in Metabolic Harmony TM—a personalised approach to balance weight loss hormones and boost energy.

Balancing your hormones doesn't have to be complicated. Sometimes the simplest strategies make the biggest difference to your metabolism.

Three foundational pillars for hormone harmony:

Managing stress - Chronic stress elevates cortisol, which directly impacts insulin sensitivity and fat storage, particularly around the middle. Simple stress management techniques can help restore hormonal balance.

Prioritising quality sleep - During deep sleep, your body regulates key metabolic hormones including leptin, ghrelin, and growth hormone. Aim for 7-9 hours of consistent, quality sleep.

Eating a nutrient-dense diet - Your hormones are made from the nutrients you eat. Focus on whole foods rich in healthy fats, quality protein, fibre, and essential vitamins and minerals to support optimal hormone production and metabolism.

When these three pillars are in place, your body has the foundation it needs to regulate hormones naturally and support a healthy metabolism.

What's one area you're focusing on right now?

Meal prep that balances your hormones? Yes!

If you’ve ever wondered how to eat for energy, focus, and hormonal harmony—but don’t have hours to spend in the kitchen—this is for you. With just a little planning, you can fill your fridge with meals designed to support your metabolism, gut health, and those all-important hormones (hello, steady moods and fewer cravings!).

Here’s what I recommend after 25 years helping women thrive:

🥗 Aim for a rainbow: Each meal should include colourful veg, lean protein, healthy fats, and optional slow-release carbs (think quinoa or sweet potato). This combo supports stable blood sugar and keeps you feeling full longer.

🧬 Don’t fear healthy fats: Avocado, olive oil, and nuts help regulate hormones and keep your gut happy.

Batch-cooking on Sundays can set you up for the week—just 60 minutes, and you’re sorted! Want a step-by-step guide or a personalized hormone-friendly meal plan?

Ever wondered why your metabolism feels 'stuck'?

Hormones, gut health, and metabolism are deeply connected—especially for women 35+. Even small shifts in your hormone balance can impact energy, cravings, and how your body responds to food (see Smith et al., 2023, on gut-hormone links). Yet, most diet plans miss this crucial science.

After 25 years as a metabolic health dietitian, I know that personalising your nutrition—focusing on your unique hormone and gut profile—can unlock real, lasting results.

Curious how this works for you? Book a tailored consultation (in-clinic or virtual) and let’s create your hormone-friendly plan together.

Meal prep can balance your hormones—really!

Did you know that what you put on your plate can directly impact your energy, mood, and even how your jeans fit? Most women I see are surprised to learn that simple meal prep tweaks—like adding more greens, healthy fats, and protein—can help support hormone balance and gut health.

After 25 years in metabolic health nutrition, I’ve seen first-hand how a few small changes can make a big difference. If you’re ready for practical, hormone-friendly meal prep ideas that fit your busy life, I’d love to help! 🥗

When we choose whole, unprocessed foods, we're making a powerful statement about our worth. It's not just about nutrition—it's about honouring our bodies and recognising that we deserve the very best fuel. Every wholesome meal is an act of self-care that reflects how much we value ourselves. 💚
