Be Well Nutrition Consulting

Be Well Nutrition Consulting I help women during the years of peri/menopause create OPTIMAL HEALTH to live live to the fullest.. But knowing what is right FOR YOU can be difficult.

My Joyful Menopause Plan is based on current science and over 20 years of my experience working with women to reach their health and wellness goals. We live in an extremely challenging environment to maintain great health. And during the years of peri-menopause and menopause the hormone fluctuations can make feeling great even more difficult. What you eat can make you sick and overweight or can make you feel well and maintain a healthy weight. I use food as medicine, help you create a balance in your life, and support you every step of the way to reach your health goals and feel like yourself again.

Menopause doesn’t need a stricter diet.
It needs better signals.
Food isn’t just fuel — it’s information for your hormones, gut, and nervous system.

And how food is prepared matters more than most advice ever mentions.
I talk about this in my newest podcast episode: https://bit.ly/49AbjrI

You CAN eat too little and NOT get results.
ㅤ
Relative Energy Deficiency - I see it in women going through menopause.
ㅤ
What does this mean for you? Essentially, it’s not getting enough energy or calories to meet your body’s needs.
ㅤ
When you’re frustrated with weight gain during this time, it’s natural to think that eating less and exercising more is the solution.
ㅤ
But, this approach can actually lead to energy deficiency. And this is a big stressor on your body.
ㅤ
This imbalance makes it harder to lose weight and can negatively impact your immune system, metabolic function, heart health, and more.
ㅤ
Fueling your body properly is crucial, especially during perimenopause.
Which is why this is one aspect of my Joyful Menopause Plan coaching program.
ㅤ
You don’t have to starve yourself to get results during menopause. But you do need to create the right energy balance for you.
ㅤ
Follow me to learn more about what your body needs to get real results during perimenopause and menopause.

Debra came to me because she had a stroke 2 years ago and had no idea what she should be eating.

After it happened she was told by her neurologist to follow a cardiac diet. That was it. No one followed up with her, no one gave her any additional information.

She is scared. She doesn’t want to have another stroke or heart attack, but doesn’t know what she can do to prevent it.

The National Institute of Health says … “Healthy lifestyle choices reduce the risk of stroke by about 80%, and of the factors that increase the risk of stroke, the worst is diet.”

Interesting …

Food
Is
Medicine.

I spend a lot of time working on day-to-day health challenges that people face - fatigue, digestive upset, brain fog, weight management.

I know that when we optimize your diet all these symptoms can improve.

But, let’s not also forget about the leading causes of death in this country - heart disease, cancer, stroke.

🥑 Each of these diseases is linked to diet and lifestyle choices.

Are you or someone you love facing a chronic disease diagnosis? YOUR DIET IS IMPORTANT.

I am here to help. Message me if you want to chat about it.

If you’re waking up between 1–3am, your liver is asking for help.

Eat protein at dinner, skip the late-night wine, and try winding down earlier.

Supporting your liver supports your sleep and menopause symptoms — especially those hot flashes at night.

Food can give you energy or it can sap your energy. Foods rich in nourishing fats, complex carbohydrates and protein can fuel your energy while foods rich in inflammatory fats, sugar and refined carbs can deplete your energy.

Have a small handful of nuts for a snack, sprinkle on a salad or use as a breading for fish; choose Greek yogurt for a snack or for breakfast topped with berries and nuts, add chia seeds to a smoothie or make chia seed pudding.

Chia Seed Pudding
Mix 1/4 cup milk or milk alternative with 1 TB chia seeds. Combine into mixed well and no chunks are remaining. Put in the refrigerator for about 2 hours (until a pudding consistency) or for up to 5 days.

Add for extra flavor and nutrition: chopped nuts, shredded coconut, fresh or frozen berries. Sweeten with a drizzle of honey or pure maple syrup if desired. Enjoy!

The mood swings, the anxiety that comes out of nowhere, the forgetfulness, the “why did I walk into this room?” moments…
Yeah. That’s hormones, not a personality change.

You’re not losing it.
You’re not overreacting.
You’re not becoming someone you don’t recognize.

Your body is recalibrating.
Your brain is rewiring.
Your hormones are shifting.
And you’re navigating all of it while still doing life.

This season can feel messy, emotional, overwhelming—and still be completely normal.

Stress hormones compete with detox pathways.

Try this: 3 slow deep breaths before each meal.

It sounds simple, but it helps your body shift from fight-or-flight to rest-and-digest — where detox and healing actually happen.
