๐ธ World Menopause Day ๐ธ
At Home Instead Cardiff, weโre proud to be a menopause-friendly employer, supporting our Care Professionals and the wider community with understanding, resources, and flexibility. ๐๐ค
This October, our MenoPals Sully group enjoyed an enlightening talk from Jo Crovini, Nutritional Therapist, all about supporting hormone health through nutrition.
Key takeaways:
โจ Focus on adding nutritious foods rather than denying yourself anything ๐ฅ
โจ Spread protein intake throughout the day ๐ณ
โจ Support metabolism and hydration to help manage symptoms in peri- and post-menopausal years ๐ง๐ช
We also provide MenoPals sponsorship, helping women connect, share experiences, and access trusted advice ๐ค๐ฌ
