MENOPAUSE NUTRITIONIST SUPPORT

 

Menopause is a natural and normal stage of life that every woman goes through. But that might not be a comfort when you are feeling the effects of menopausal symptoms! Working with a nutritionist who specialises in menopause gives you the right tools to manage this stage of your life in a gentle yet effective way.

Some women seem to breeze through it, so you might be wondering why they’re floating along, and you are on an emotional and physical rollercoaster. There are actually 34 symptoms of menopause, many of which are rarely acknowledged. Do you regularly struggle with some of the following?

  • Hot flushes

  • Mood swings, irritability, anxiety or depression

  • Poor memory and low concentration span

  • Low sex drive and vaginal dryness

  • Headaches

  • Body aches and fatigue

  • Breast tenderness

  • Changes in digestion like bloating or food intolerances

  • Allergies or hives

  • Difficulty sleeping

  • Increased sweating and change in body odour

  • Burning or tingling tongue, or a change in taste

Do you feel over-medicalised or dismissed and left to just get on with it? Have you lost your sense of who you are or feel like your body is no longer your own? Or do you actually have a new fire in your belly and feel a change is happening within you which nobody understands?

This can be a very isolating time, unless you have friends who are going through menopause with you. No doubt you have achieved a lot in your life so far (even if you don’t quite see it) and that should be celebrated! This is not a time for you to feel like you are disappearing and losing your identity. Would you like some help to feel more like the old (or new) you?

Because your menopause experience can be affected by so many different things going on in your body, it is important to take some steps to look after yourself so that you can feel great and show up as the best version of yourself with friends and loved ones.

Nutritional therapy can help you to get on the right track and feel better.
