This is how alcohol affects your hormones and may explain why you can't handle alcohol like you used to:

Alcohol has been shown to increase oestrogen levels. Alcohol does this by slowing down the breakdown of oestrogen in your liver and unregulating the conversion of testosterone to oestrogen, causing oestrogen dominance.

Alcohol is linked to impaired progesterone production, possibly due to its effect on the liver

Alcohol is known to have a direct toxic effect on the cells within your thyroid. It has been shown to alter the levels of the thyroid hormones, thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3), with heavy use showing decreased levels of T3 and T4.

Tips to manage alcohol this summer:
The recommended guidelines for alcohol are no more than 14 units a week, with at least 2 alcohol-free days per week. A typical bottle of wine will contain 10 units. It’s easy to get through a bottle with three generous glasses in a night! Let’s face it, who pours a small glass?

⭐️ Choose non alcoholic gut friendly alternatives such as Kombucha, or water kefir 😋

⭐️ Commit to more alcohol free days.

⭐️ Don’t drink on an empty stomach, opt for a spritzer, and drink water between each alcoholic beverage.

Need support? I have tons of strategies, helped many clients overcome their alcohol dependence, manage perimenopause hormones and achieve their weight loss goals 💪

Understanding what’s happening in your body and how to support yourself with diet & lifestyle is my job. DM me to book a FREE call ❤️ 🙌🏽

Are you including these 5 foods for better hormone balance? 👇🏻

👉 Cruciferous vegetables, like broccoli and kale, support hormone balance and liver detoxification. 2 tbsp of broccoli sprouts are the equivalent to 2 whole broccoli heads. Why is broccoli important? Because it contains an important compound called sulphurafane which supports the liver to detoxify oestrogen.

👉 Sardines, salmon, mackerel, herring and anchovies all contain omega 3 which has been shown to ease period cramps. Healthy fats are also important for building healthy hormones.

👉 Flaxseeds, pumpkin seeds, and sunflower seeds contain lignans, which help balance oestrogen levels. They’re also rich in nutrients like healthy fats and zinc, which support overall hormone health.

👉 The building blocks of hormones and important to ensure you're getting enough. Aim for 30g at breakfast and dinner. Lunch 15-20g. Good sources of protein include poultry, meat, fish eggs, soy.

👉 Tofu, Tempeh, Miso, Natto are rich in phytoestrogens – or plant oestrogens – which can have a balancing effect on hormones. Opt for organic, fermented.

👉 Want more tips on navigating perimenopause? Follow me for food first advice and support. Let’s navigate this journey together! 💕

10 Anti-Inflammatory foods to eat daily!

The human body uses inflammation to help fight illness and limit further harm. In most cases, inflammation is a necessary part of the healing process.

However, sustained or chronic inflammation can lead to weight gain, digestive issues and a range of inflammatory diseases, including diabetes, cardiovascular disease and cancer. Any condition ending with "itis" (arthritis, dermatitis, sinusitis, ulcerative colitis) means inflammation. So these foods are for you!

Research shows that a significant contributor to chronic inflammation comes from what we eat. Swapping out inflammatory foods for their anti-inflammatory counterparts is a great way to improve overall health and well-being.

Here are my 10 top anti-inflammatory foods to eat daily!

What are your favourite ways to eat these?
