Show Notes

Most women in perimenopause are unknowingly under-fuelling, eating too little protein and not enough calories in an effort to “be good.” In this episode, nutritional therapist Francesca Liparoti explains why under-eating during perimenopause can disrupt hormones and energy, and how focusing on balanced nutrition can help you feel calm, strong, and energised again.
