Magnesium. It is possibly one of the most underrated nutrients - it supports over 300 different processes in your body including your nervous system, sleep, stress resilience, and hormone balance.

This week on the podcast I’m shining a light on this magical mineral, search Fab Female Nutrition on your favourite podcast provider. And once you've had a listen I’d love to know from you:

👉 Have you ever tried a magnesium supplement?
👉 Do you notice a difference when you eat more leafy greens, seeds or nuts?
👉 Or are you thinking… hmm, maybe I need more of this in my life?

Wired but tired? Can’t seem to wind down at night? 😩

You might be low in GABA - your brain’s calming neurotransmitter. It’s the thing that helps you slow down, switch off and stop overthinking… and if you’re always on the go, chances are you’re not making enough of it.

🧬 We can even do genetic testing to check how well your body produces GABA.
Mine? Not great. Not surprising really - I’m definitely that “what’s next?” kind of person!

If you’re a classic Type A, busy-all-the-time, find-it-hard-to-sit-still kind of woman, you might be the same. 🙋‍♀️

One simple thing that helps?
Magnesium.
It plays a key role in helping us calm down (amongst about 400 other key roles!), and it’s the topic of this week’s podcast.

This is collagen

Consuming bone broth is one of the easiest ways to increase your intake of collagen. And as it’s a food you are also getting other complimentary nutrients- plus it tastes great!

You can get good quality broth from most supermarkets- or why not make on your own? It’s great for skin health, joints, and your gut. Listen to this weeks podcast to find out more.

Did you realise bone broth was high in collagen?

💊 Antibiotics save lives – but what are they doing to your gut? 🤔

In this week’s episode of Fab Female Nutrition, we’re talking about the other side of antibiotic use. Yes, they’re essential when we need them – but they also wipe out our friendly gut bacteria, leaving us feeling bloated, foggy or just not quite right.

We’ll explore:

🧫 What antibiotics actually do to your microbiome
🧠 Why your gut-brain connection might feel off after treatment
🌱 The best foods to help repopulate healthy bacteria
🥕 Why fermented foods and fibre are your gut’s best friends
💊 And why taking probiotics during antibiotics might just be genius

I’m also giving a big shout out to the legacy of Alexander Fleming (thank you, penicillin!) and the fascinating history behind the germ theory and my hero Claude Bernard – plus what it means for our health today.

🎧 Tune in now to feel confident, informed and empowered the next time antibiotics are on the table. Search Fab Female Nutrition wherever you listen to your podcast

💚 Big thanks to our sponsor – I’m loving their MenoActive supplement for midlife women. It includes probiotics, digestive enzymes, magnesium, B vitamins and so much more to keep your gut and hormones happy.

Another social media hype that I'm not buying into - Electrolytes.

I'm sorry but let's cut the BS 💩 here - I'm not an athlete, and you are probably not an athlete either. If I work out REALLY REALLY hard I might wick up a sweat for a few minutes, but seriously, our bodies are amazing and they can deal with a little bit of sweat 💦.

✅ The science shows:
Unless you’ve been doing really intense exercise or have lost a lot of fluid (vomiting, diarrhoea, heat exposure), your kidneys have got you covered — balancing those sodium, potassium, magnesium levels for you.

For everyday living, whether you’re busy, in mid-life, or juggling a lot, plain old water and a balanced diet is all your body needs.
Here are my quick, easy swaps natural was to support hydration and electrolytes (no sachet or supplement in sight):

🍌Have a banana or baked potato for potassium
🥜Snack on nuts, seeds, or dark leafy greens for magnesium
👩‍🍳Add a pinch of salt to meals (or homemade broth)

Want to know when electrolyte drinks can be useful, or got any questions?
