Episode Description:
This week, Cass is joined by Nutritionist Emily Gardem for a conversation on how nutrition can support women through perimenopause and menopause. Emily shares her journey into nutrition, what “food is medicine” really means, and why our dietary needs shift in midlife.
We cover:
- Foods that can ease menopause symptoms like hot flashes, low energy, and poor sleep
- Why protein is essential for women 40+ and how to get enough
- Practical tips for eating well when life is busy
- Hydration, fibre, and key nutrients for midlife health
- Sorting through diet trends (keto, Mediterranean, vegetarian) to find what works for you
Emily leaves us with an empowering reminder: focus on being strong, not skinny—because midlife is the time to fuel strength, energy, and confidence.
