I recommend supplements ONLY when unable to achieve through a balanced diet. For individual dietary advice, please see your trusted dietician.
I used to believe a real-food-only approach was all I needed and stayed away from supplements. However, science has shown just how much women’s nutritional needs change, especially during perimenopause, and it’s completely transformed the way I think about and approach my own nutrition.
In particular:
- The amount of protein required at regular intervals throughout the day.
- The benefits of creatine, especially for women 40+.
- The importance of pre & post-workout nutrition in maintaining lean muscle mass.
- How a healthy gut microbiome benefits us.
I’ve highlighted my recommended supplements here, but you can check out a wider selection of supplements, snacks, and other products below.
