In this episode, Karen talks about the importance of getting nutrition right at all stages of our lives, from the menstrual cycle to the menopause. She gives advice on how to navigate through the menopause when we can be feeling very overwhelmed and stressed. She explains the four shifts: reset, cleanse, rest and eat. And how we need to consider our relationship to caffeine, sugar, and alcohol. Her book is ideal for everyone to access and dip into to get great advice about our nutrition, whether we take HRT or not.
Karen is a registered nutritional therapist who specialises in women's hormone health, especially at menopause, with over 10 years clinical experience. She holds a BSc in Nutritional Medicine and is registered with BANT and CNHC. She runs a specialist menopause clinic, and hosts regular retreats, corporate talks and workshops on the subject. She's very much a complementary practitioner, often working with GP menopause specialists and women on HRT. Her approach is highly practical, realistic and achievable as we deal with very low bandwidth in amongst our turbo charged, modern day world.
