Whether you are using HRT or not it is so important to make sure that we recognise our bodies are changing & we need to adapt. It can feel like a roller coaster of ever changing symptoms & we can at times feel completely lost & out of control. I see every day & in clinic that small changes can have a huge impact.

Think about how your exercise, does it still feel right or if you haven't carved out time for you to exercise maybe the time is now?
Does what you eat still work for you? Does your digestion feel sluggish & foods that used to be OK now throw you off?
Does alcohol seem harder for your body to process & is the hangover worth it these days?
These are all valid & common questions that we discuss when supporting clients in peri & menopause whether they are using HRT or not.

As women, I believe that information tailored towards our own bodies is really important to find the right support; so our menopause years are no different.

Many women come to see me for help with their cycle from the age of 35 to 55, some know that they are in menopause, as periods have stopped; others come to work out what is going on.
Why have their periods got heavier? Why are they so tired & the exercise they have been doing doesn't feel like it works any more?

It's hard but we don't have to do it alone, getting wrap around support with the right food, exercise and or supplements is crucial whether using HRT or not.

I am a big fan of eggs, for fresh usable protein with some great added nutrients: B Vitamins for energy & Choline for skin & brain health to name only a few. I do love all beans & pulses too.

Focusing on what protein you are having with each meal & snack can make a huge shift to your energy and bloods sugar levels.
It is possible to shift those sweet cravings, which give you a quick boost then a crash, to a better quality food hit, how? Think Protein, it will satisfy you for longer. What you could add in tomorrow to boost your protein?
