I think it's really important that you recognize that by changing your own lifestyle, you can change your own trajectory as well, and I could go on and on and on, and we can zone in on stress, which is a real potent driver. But what we know from Tim specter's work is that the menopause and nutrition are really really highly connected.
Menopause can feel like a mysterious, uncharted territory for many women, but Dr Alka Patel and Anna Reddy are here to clear the fog. In this engaging episode of the Practitioner Health Wellbeing Podcast, they break down the complexities of menopause, perimenopause, and post-menopause with refreshing clarity and warmth. Dr Alka Patel, a GP and Lifestyle Medicine Physician, teams up with Anna Reddy, a Nutritionist and Pharmacist, to offer practical advice on navigating this significant life stage.
They dive into how lifestyle changes can dramatically impact your health trajectory, with Dr Patel sharing her unique 'Lifestyle First' method. Nutrition plays a starring role in their discussion, as they explore its influence on muscle mass, gut health, and bone density. Reddy emphasizes the importance of nutrition in preventing conditions like osteopenia and osteoporosis, offering tangible tips to integrate into daily life.
But it’s not just about what you eat; it’s about opening up the conversation around menopause, especially in the workplace. Patel and Reddy discuss how to foster an environment where women's health issues are acknowledged and supported. This episode is a treasure trove of insights for anyone looking to better understand menopause and how to thrive during this time of change.
